So much for the Garcia vs Matthysse/Peterson winner fighting Khan. He would have got KO'd by either guy anyways. Might as well take his chances against Devon. That's a fight that shouldnhave happened years ago.
If the determined & slick Davide Haye that fought Valuev shows up, then he has a chance. If that sucka that collected a paycheck against Wlad shows up, he's getting KO'd!
Froch has a point. He'll be Bute's first real challenge. Unless you want to count when Andrade knocked him out ha ha. I think Froch needs the KO to win though. Although, if he has a high work rate he could possiblr get a decision since it's in the UK.
That wasn't a robbery Dirrell, he didn't come to fight he ran *****ed to the ref and flat out did everything in his power not to engage you don't win a world title like that Dirrell was a disgrace that night.
Dirrell was robbed. Froch got outboxed. Dirrell peppered Froch with jabs and counters all night.
Dirrell ran *****ed and hugged all night not no robbery stop being silly.
So when Sugar Ray Leonard used a similiar gameplan against Hagler he was just running and hugging? Punches in spurts, jabbing, and utilizing the ring, it's called smart boxing. It's what mobile boxers do against sluggers like Froch. It worked. If that fight wasn't in the UK, Dirrell would have got the decision.
Hope this fight humbles Khan. Never liked the kid but retirement talk is way too premature. He needs to dump Roach if he wants to save his career. Roach isn't the guy to be with if he wants to improve his defense. Look at Roach's top fights, Khan, Chavez JR, and Pacquiao. All offensive guys who get hit! Ditch Roach I say.
They carry a mayweather thread page for weeks.
Oh I know. I like Pac & Floyd but something about them Pac fanboys really urkes me like no other. It's almost like they lurk around boxingscene just waiting for a Mayweather thread to post so that they can get their troll on. Sad life.
Making $59.99 on PPV is praise, but Mayweather fans have nothing but hate to share. You better feel embarrassed.
I don't even know what to say in reply. Especially about the last line haha. Hate on bro. Let the hate guide you young p@ctard!
But you just said you don't even know what to say in reply. Spewing lies and calling names, just like his idol.
Mayweather is definitely not my idol. Not even one of my top 3 fighters. I respect the man's boxing skill. He's one the the best technical fighters to ever lace em up. Do I respect the man outside of the ring? Yes & no. I respect his genius to sell himself as the bad guy and in turn become the top PPV generator beside Manny. I respect that he is his own boss and how he keeps a huge chunk of the fight profits, unlike most fighters. What I don't respect about the guy is the dumb sh*t that comes out of his mouth. That being said, I'm no ***** like some of these cats on this site. You don't see me jumping on Pacquiao threads just to talk sh*t about the guy. That sh*t is sad. I get on this website to talk boxing w/ other boxing fans, not waste my time hatin on another man because I have nothing better to do with my life. Where does that put you bro?
No thanks! Gimme Pac/Floyd or Floyd/Martinez. I understand that this fight would make big overseas $$$ but c'mon son! Floyd is 35 now. He needs to make the big fights that add to his legacy, not fight these hype jobs like Canelo & Con. Hopefully Petey puts it on Con and cancels those plans they have brewing for Floyd over at Golden Boy. Based off of all this I wouldn't be surprised if the judges palms are already greased in Vegas for the Con/Pete rematch. Petey better KO Con or it's a done deal.
It's sad that the guys who take all the punches and the long term damage, aren't the guys with the serious money like the promoters. Ass backwards if you ask me! :nonono:
Haye is a disappointment IMO. Dude has the skills, power, and looks to be a marketable fighter. Yes, he dominated Cruiserweight and won a heavyweight title, but in comparison to what he could have done up to this point, he has definitely not worked up to his potential. His lack of activity, no-show against Wlad, and now his questionable opposition, these are all blemishes on his potentially great career. I do however think he has enough to turn that around and go out on top. Go after and beat the likes of Fury, Wilder, and Joshua...unify and possibly rematch Wlad, then he'd deserve his credit at HW.
Not a Khan fan, but he has a point. Kell may have a title, but he's no big name and a fight with any of those other fighters makes more sense for his legacy, as well as financially.
Notice that Wlad is not modeling himself after Ali, Joe Jeanette, Evander Holyfield or even his own brother.
He knows Lennox is the greatest. Thats the benchmark he is trying to reach.
REALLY!? The Greatest??? Wow! To each his own I guess....
