As a boxing fan I’d happily pay to see Muslim Chechen Warrior Artur fight his fellow Russian Bivol or Alvarez
frustrating when you can’t see how good a good fighter is
The best fight in the sport.
This is my entire point.
So called fight fans like to criticize a fighter, yet, not put other fighters under that same exact microscope.
People expect more from Nelo :boxing:
Between who, Canelo and Charlo?
Again, you don't get to call people out in higher weight classes, then play the victim when they respond to you, or when fans say "Hey, I'd actually like to see that!"
Any active fighter, starting with the boogeymen.
GGG was willing to take on anyone from 154 to 168.
Who has a better resume

it literally is one of the top three most “common sense fights” to make in the entire sport
If Nelo didn't make statements and call these guys out with zero intent of fighting them, he wouldn't get his comments thrown back at him.
A select other type of fan is content with "pulling up greatness" from 154

No. I want Arum and Beterbiev to get some balls and fight Bivol.
jake, I have NEVER (other than James Toney) known personally a fighter with less concern for an opponent than Artur. That man is BEYOND fearless.
This fight not happening yet has absolutely nothing to do with Artur personally. I guarantee you and assure you of that 100%.

More like a select group of haters. That sort can be found making thread after thread devaluing certain fighters, probably because they've never accomplished anything themselves, and it makes them feel better to crap on those who have. Not really worth calling fans at all, and they certainly don't value the sweet science.
Bivol. Or if he wants to "dare to be great" he could take Usyk on. But he needs to force Bob to make the fight for undisputed.

Who would Beter have to fight for nuts to be on the line ?!?!?!?

There will always be excuses, some reasons legitimate and some exaggerated, t's just the nature of the beast - if Crawford beats Boots, Boots was too green. If Boots beats Bud, Bud was past his prime.
Yea, the goal post moves according to the "Man" they cheer for. I agree.
Dunno about the others, but Thurman received an offer to fight Ennis that he turned down... Thurman would rather run his mouth than fight. He's turned down several fights at this point.
It wasn't an official offer. The Boots camp tried to address Thurman, but when Thurman said "send the contract" they got silent except on social media..... Even some of Boots's ignorant fans were verbally attacking Thurman at a fight this summer in which he checked them and let them know that "I do this... You just watch it"......
Thurman is a proven warrior. I'll never understand nor agree with fans trying to belittle his worth to the sport simply because it's been a while since we have seen him at his best. He definitely knows how to sell tickets. And he's worth every part of the $2-$5M he gets paid for his fights.
There's nothing that Boots has done that Thurman hasn't done already. Only these NEW AGE fans are giving guys like Jaron Ennis more clout than they are giving guys like Keith Thurman.
A woman with an overhand right is a keeper.....lol.
She’s 5 10 and is half Korean power hitter
she beat me up in Fresno and my mom and sisters cheered her on
she’s a keeper and negotiates my job offers
she buys herself nice stuff and I wear uniclo she throw my chit out
He would most likely do what the fans/followers of all of Crawford's other opponents do....come up with an excuse on how Crawford was able to dismantle their favorite man and make it look easy.
Look at all the crying we are seeing from the Spence followers.......Crawford now apparently is juicing, laced his gloves (wraps), Spence was drained, Spence a broken rib, the car accident took too much out of him, he isn't fully recovered from the eye surgery, etc...... Boots's followers go to war over this guy's worth to the sport and he has yet to face anyone who will ever sniff a world title in the division he claims he's elite in. The only thing that makes Boots relevant in the division is the fact that he keeps mentioning Crawford (& Spence's) name. The opponents he's facing, he's expected to do what he does to them, thus proving, he isn't challenging himself to prove he's more worth of a title shot that anyone else ranked in the division trying to get the same thing.
Claiming everyone is "avoiding" him is their "go-to" excuse to justify his resume......yet not one of them have mention exactly who it is that they reached out to and that opponent declined.........Because we've heard other prospects/contenders openly say they are interest in a fight vs him and yet..................
Thurman, Barrios, Ugas, Stanionis, Ortiz, Avaneysan, have all expressed interest in a match up since the pandemic started, and I can almost guarantee that none of them have received a single text, call, smoke signal, message in a bottle, etc.... informing them that Boots is up for the challenge....
