.....have a place in boxing ?
As far as I can tell, we all know what defines a bum :dunno:
I ask for resumes and I get called a troll or asked why I'm asking. More energy is put into not posting a resume than to actually post it.
If boxer A is going to be bashed due to being a ''cherry picker'', let's see what a legit boxer been up to.
Let's see if that boxer has any cherries.
Or are resumes the same as scoring, completely subjective ?
I've already explained to you god knows how many times that Porter is a better win than anyone canelo has on his resume.
You still can't even answer who is Canelo's best win even though I've asked a million times.
The GGG Nelo beat (The Mexican Bizness) > the Porter that Bud beat.
Biv will murder Bud.....but we know that is a mountain Bud won't climb. He would do a Horn rematch before considering it and you'd be in the front row cheerleading.

He gets more undeserved favorable treatment than any fighter on this forum. Well, at least until last weekend when all the fanboys jumped ship
Bud gets more love from the sport than he deserves.
Your point ?
Future NELO'S out there....do not chase greatness if you want fight fans to love you. Keep it easy :boxing:
Got it, you want me to copy and paste every opponent terence Crawford faced because you don't know how to go to wikipedia and see it yourself f
Just the good one's so it should only take you a couple of seconds
Nelo is bashed because .

There are 1,000 threads a day bashing Terence Crawford's resume. The criticism definitely is spread unevenly, unevenly in favor of Canelo.
I think you mean comments.
Rightfully so if true. Bud's resume is trash and that's why most of his fans have to go back it time to make it look better than it is.

Would it matter ?
I edit out the nonsense since the writer wouldn't.
So much energy and time is spent on not posting resumes...it's hilarious.
What does "post" their resume even mean? Do you need me to teach you how to use boxrec or wikipedia?
You misquote people intentionally and expect NOT to be called a troll?

I expect criticism to be spread evenly
It does't work that way when you get paid $360 million to be the face of boxing and Demetrius Andrade is just trying to feed his kids.
And before the Bivol loss, 99% of this forum was pro canelo anyway, there were like 3 of us calling him out on his lack of skills to compete at the elite level. The criticism is far more slanted towards fighters like Bud and Andrade.
The funny thing is people like you do exactly what you accuse the rest of us of.
You expect us to give Canelo credit for getting battered and swinging and missing for 12 rounds.
But Shawn Porter, you call a cherry pick, who actually did dare to be great by taking on Errol Spence, after his massacre of Mikey Garcia and terrorization/shaking of Thurman and the rest of the WW division, became the first man to show the world that Spence was human in a fight many people think he won??
But you give him ZERO credit for that?
I expect criticism to be spread evenly and with as much detail as THE NEXT FIGHTER.
We see how popular that is.
If Nelo is a bum for losing to a so called bigger bum/cherry, let's who is DOING MORE.
That's when I'm called names :lol1:

Not if you get your ass whooped for 12 rounds.
If I take the hardest class in college and get a F, I wasn't chasing greatness. I failed. No employer will hire me with that grade.
Nelo fighting a bunch of Horns would have been a wiser, better career move :lol1:
Testing yourself (AKA chasing greatness) is an added bonus, even in losing.

Is this thread something to do with Canelo and Golovkin again? You're obsessed man.:lol1:
Canelos an example of a very good fighter who got lots of opportunities and financial backing and got them early, Golovkin's an example of a very good fighter who got far fewer opportunities and got them later in his career. Your approach to risk is always gonna look different when your generational wealth and future paydays are assured by your mid 20s than it will when when your first $ million payday doesn't come until you're 32 or 33 and the end of your earning potential is looming. And that's not to mention that big names ain't gonna fight you unless they get paid. Two completely different careers and career trajectories with completely different circumstances.
So yes indeed, resumes do have a place in boxing - certainly despite the fact that they're of a similar level in terms of ability Canelo will - and should - rank in the all time lists whereas Golovkin probably won't (except as a MW) - but like everything else in this life context is also important.
GGG fans are obsessed in avoiding his resume.
The word resume, when it relates to their hero, or the hero of any hater, is like acid in their eyes.
It seems as if the only resume that is constantly on display to be mocked is Nelo and May before him.
That trend seems to be ok with the crowd. No questions aksed.
I try to get them to spread their expert pov around and it's ''you're a troll'' :lol1;
Even worse. I get called NUTHUGGER :lol1:
As if fans everywhere aren't ''nuthuggers''
I'd be a valued member of NSB if I joined in on the Nelo hate
