Boone is a perfect example of a fighter who has been poorly managed. Did't have a manger for the Ward, Kovalev, Pascal, and Stevenson fights
Ward:
He took the fight on 5 days notice and didn't know Ward's credentials. Didn't know Ward was a gold medalist until after the fight. Says Ward wasn't a hard puncher he was just more experienced. His trainer was getting his fights for him.

Pascal:
Again, Pascal's experience made the difference. Said Pascal was fast but not really a hard puncher

Kovalev I:
He said he doesn't think anyone at the fight was recording the fight so that's why no one can find the video of the first fight.He has a copy of the fight on on his digital camera. He said he knocked Kovalev down 4 times in that fight but they only counted on knockdown. Kovalev was inexperienced at the time.

Kovalev II:
Better fighter with JDJ than he was when they fought the first time and Kovalev was with Abel Sanchez. Felt like they stopped the fight to early. Kovalev was more experienced and a better fighter. Said it felt like Kovalev's power was 10x's harder in the second fight than it was in the first fight.

Stevenson I:
He thinks Stevenson underestimated him. He hit Stevenson with an uppercut and left hook towards the end of the first round and he doesn't think Stevenson ever recovered from that. He said he didn't even have a trainer for the fight. His best friend worked his corner. He told his best friend just give me some water imma knock this guy out. He also picked his cutman when he got to the fight. Boone trained for two weeks prior to the fight. He said the commissioner himself called him and told him don't take the fight

Stevenson II:
The fuckery began. They changed the weight of the fight when Boone got to Canada. Boone signed the fight to be at 168. When he got there they told him he may as well start eating because Stevenson is still 180lbs the night before weigh-in. Stevenson had already signed the contract to fight Dawson so Boone was gonna lose regardless of what happened shy of a KO. Stevenson has a lot more power at 175 than he had at 168 but Kovalev can match him with power. The fight would be whoever lands first. Ward is to smart and would take that left hand away.

Golovkin:
Good guy. Cool dude. Vicious in the ring. Punches harder than Kovalev. Good ring I.Q. But he doesn't have to use it because of the guys he's fighting

Brook:
B.S. fight but GGG can't wait around and wait on everybody else. Doesn't have the power or boxing skills to outbox GGG. GGG is to focused to get distracted. Laughs at Brook saying he doesn't respect GGG's punching power. Said Kell is gonna find out real quick. Says Brook hasn't fought anybody at welterweight that can punch. Brook is about to take a brutal beating. He might last a lil bit because he can box a little but it won't go past 6.

Talks about other middleweights and super middles:
Said Canelo, BJS and Eubank Jr would last 8 and Jacobs would go less than that. DeGale would go the distance. Zurdo may go the distance but he was getting rocked around by Findley. Gotta see how he fares against a puncher. Prime Froch vs GGG, good fight, can't call it.
Timestamp: https://youtu.be/0DumdA5nIXs?t=31m40s
Ward vs. GGG:
With Ward being inactive he's liable to get stopped late. An active Ward may win but get dropped once or twice.
Timestamp: https://youtu.be/0DumdA5nIXs?t=34m18s
Ward vs. Kovalev:
Doesn't think Ward's body has reacted right going to 175. He's not looking good at 175. He's slower and not moving or using angles he used to. The shots he's getting hit with by lesser opponents will knock him out against Kovalev. Ward has been looking a lot less than. Kovalev can box when he has to. Picking Kovalev to win
Timestamp: https://youtu.be/0DumdA5nIXs?t=35m37s
Why Ward moved from 168 to 175:
Somebody behind the scenes is pushing the fight. Thinks Ward made a mistake and doesn't think Ward is ready for the fight. The game is dirty. If they get tired of you they'll get you beat. Boone has gotten bonuses to beat guys. Promoters would pay him to beat guys so they could release the guy from the contract. Ward should've knocked Brand out. He was trying to KO him but he couldn't.
Timestamp: https://youtu.be/0DumdA5nIXs?t=38m46s
On if he's bitter about Ward:
He's not bitter. That was a fight he wasn't supposed to win. Ward was given a long count after the KD. Ward got a gift. When the decision was made the fans in the arena boo'd. Ward is not the same fighter he was six years ago. He sees it and everybody sees it but they don't want to say it. Kovalev looked like he was working on stuff during his fight with Chilemba.
Timestamp: https://youtu.be/0DumdA5nIXs?t=45m
Golovkin's weight:
He's a big middleweight but would be an alright size super middleweight and to small for light heavyweight. Brook may walk around as a middleweight but fighting at that weight is a whole lot different.
