Lots of fighters look good on lower levels..but how many give career defining moments on the ELITE level?? Many end up looking average or below average...The ones who dominate on that elite LEVEL are SPECIAL!!! there are levels in this game!!!
I dont think so, but even if you had canelo winning. There is no way he "clearly" beat him.
It's like someone saying Ward clearly beat Kovalev twice.
You couldn't find two fights more equal than theirs. I'm very confident if Kov knocked off his stubbornness and listened to a new trainer, that he could win a comfortably close decision over Ward in a 3rd fight. Could've in the 2nd, but his loss... Still P4P potential, but we'll see how he recovers against a can.
The point of this thread is that GGG didn't perform up to par, Ward did, GGG sucks, Ward is elite.
Great fighters don't need gift decisions or home referees allowing them to cheat and break the rules to win..
Actually, it's extremely rare for one fighter to dominate another elite fighter. It virtually never happens.
I assume your thread #56 is about Ward, he never dominated another elite fighter. The closest he got was Kessler, but that fight was dirty AF, and Kessler may not be exactly elite.
You mean like canelo? Because he lost to his 3 best opponents.
Floyd
Lara
GGG
Who said Canelo was great???
atg, no but Canelo is p4p #1 today.
His resume ****s all over rigo/loma/crawfords. nobody comes close. and he beat lara, dont give me that bullchit
Just to add fuel to the fire, names. Please, please if you have an ounce ,a smidgen, a tiny atom of integrity don't say Lora..
Lara?? he has never been elite, world class?? sure Elite is a level only a certain few can reach
Agreed, and elite fights don't always have to be one sided, sometimes it's more complicated than that...
So thrashing someone because of reputation doesn't make the fighter mediocre..
I agree, these days you really dont have many elite fighters..but it makes me sad how the elite fighters we had were slammed and never given credit

yea...but only cuz you're a fan of them...otherwise you don't seem to have a problem discrediting fighters,
I give praise where its due man,,the yeast always rises to the top
Boxing is a strategic chess match some guys are harder to figure out, even Floyd had tough fights, and look at ward you consider him a atg yet he took a gift last November and touched the floor.. you call that a great performance?
