There's a lot of biased posters here, but the bottom line is Lara is the better, more skilled fighter over golovkin. Had canelo not had stamina issues, I have no doubt golovkin would not see the final bell, or it would've been a very wide UD.
He had stamina issues because of the pressure and pace of the fight. Ggg didn't let him rest.
Things that keep rising everytime it's talked about:
Canelo's weight against Khan
Jacobs weight against GGG
Ortiz age
And the fish I caught last weekend.
GGG had hundreds of amateur fights. Canelo didn’t. What’s your point? Prime Canelo still ran away from old and slow GGG...
^^^^^^this. Even canelos mom knows he didn't deserve a draw. He lost.
You sure are slow, if both are not a draw then it's a 50/50 split. Genius!
Loma brings more to the table than to rigo. Bigger draw and way more fan friendly style.
People talking like Canelo is moving up... Give me a ****ing break he's a mini Tyson.
He's been weighing more than the average MW for years.
Please answer the question. When has he been outweighed? Against Chavez jr? How could he be 174? That was his weight against Angulo.
Being a weight bully is his better skill. God knows how he cuts 18-20 pounds each time.
He will be 178-180 against Golovkin but some shameless guys are saying here he's the smallest man? These guys are idiots and frauds.
Maybe Chavez. But he's outweighed everyone else.
Zab had the most tools and the most potential in my opinion
Coin toss on zab and Gamboa Leaning towards gamboa because zab was weak between the ears. Broner was just good. Nowhere near as talented as those 2.
Gamboa was weak between the ears as well and accomplished far less then Judah..hell all 3 are weak between the ears
True. I think Gamboa was mismanaged. Could have done more with his talent.
all the floyd fanatics for some reason instead of disrespecting manny and calling him rascist comments are all of a suddenly butthurt that manny lost, lol, they used to be happy that manny lost, lol, if manny lost by robbery, lol, they would be celebrating like they did vs bradley and marquez, lol, now that floyd has manny in his resume at this stage in his career(the past 3 or 4 years), floyd fans are pissed cause it proves mannys lost to floyd isnt a prime pac win and floyd cherrypikked mannys old azz, lol, just like he did on almost every fight since hes been in the higher weight levels, lol,
floyd is not the best ever:headbang:
when floyd beats mc gregor, lol, they will claim mc gregor is a all time great and floyd should be getting credit for beating a great boxer such as mc gregor
Hate mayweather but Manny still won.
Mills Lane, a tough no nonsense ref, who would let you fight, but enforced the rules and didn't take any ****.
Are they any referees today close to that standard.
A lot of them seem to be scared to show some authority, enforce the rules and be fair and even in a fight.
Was Mills the best?
Yessss..........
i read on twitter that they cut off his mic because he was about to start talking about floyd only KOing women when floyd said he was gonna KO mcgregor
She went the distance too.
Now, I don't believe it will happen. Maybe there is a 0.1% but in a fight between two athletes, both with fists, anything could happen and we've seen it happen. So, if that 0.1% chance comes off...then what? As boxing fans, do we make excuses?
Floyd was old? 2 years retired? Mcgregor was too big?
Or do we take the loss on the chin and give McG his props? Because let me tell you, I would give him 100% credit. Mayweather isn't a normal 40 year old and he isnt a 40 year old fighter. In 21 years he has had 49 fights, only a handful of them have been that physical and not a single one of them has been a war. His body is fresh, it's not broken up like so many fighters through history.
Imo, McG would not be beating an old fighter and certainly not an old man. I believe he beats a slightly passed prime Mayweather and that would be HUGE. It probably makes McG one of the most marketable athletes on the planet. He could overtake AJs earning potential.
And...we'd all have egg on our face.
Nsb will need to post the suicide hotline # if McGregor wins.
So I'm heading into work, listening to Ferrall on the Bench (nationally syndicated sports radio show) and they're talking about how basically a firestorm has erupted due to the racial undertones of such a statement, that McGregor reportedly made at the presser today. I expected to log in to said firestorm.
But....I don't see sh*t on this. Am I just missing it?? Has it already been rehashed to death? Or was it even really said? I don't see sh*t on that but these dudes were on the radio going crazy on this alleged line from McGregor.
Racial undertones? They're reaching as usual. #pu$$ies
why would you ask for an extension to pay your tax bill if you have all this money and a 100 million dollar check that you have not cashed...think about that...why do you think he took the mcgregor fight
Ding ding ding
Better then cotto , trout , Lara I don't think so .....BUT a Jacobs and Lemieux latest wins boosts his up if he beats Conelo he will officially clean a whole division something we didn't see in a while ...(and plea
Coto was past his best and small. Trouts only good win is against a small cotto. Laras only good win is trout. Trout ain't much and Lara is 24-2-2 his claim to fame is losing to his best opponents.
lol, Floyd In trouble. The way they built Aldo up In order to make Mcgregor's win seem even more Impressive. Floyd would kill Mcgregor coming off of a 5 year lay off.
The way they built up aldo? He was champ before McGregor got to the ufc.
