How do you know he won't???? If you are one of his many haters on here then you probably said he would fight 5 more Rolls type guys but he is taking a risky fight against a more dangerous fighter than Andrade. Canelo was always free to fight Andrade and he still could if he wanted to. Andrade is a runner with a difficult ugly style and nobody really wants to fight him.
Derv isn’t more dangerous than Andrade. I’m just saying after the Derv fight I don’t see him fighting Andrade.
Offer for @TevinFarmer22 to fight Gervonta Davis on Showtime came in at around $2 million, per sources, which was a non-starter for Farmer. @EddieHearn has had a standing $5 million offer for Davis to fight Farmer on @DAZN_USA that Davis has shown no interest in.— Chris Mannix (@SIChrisMannix) August 14, 2019
What a f'd up world we live in where 5.5M is considered a low ball offer to fight Canelo from little known Derevyanchenko and 2M is a low ball offer for little known Farmer lol.
Davis just needs to take that 5M offer and KO Farmer on DAZN. I mean sure only 25k people will watch, but that's a very nice pay day for a fight he should win.
killakali what were you saying about DAZN not offering Davis more money than what Ramirez got for Hooker since he fights in a lighter weight class? Yeah, so much for that.
The only question I have for the DAZN offer is it a 1 fight deal?? As in if he wins does he have to fight more on DAZN.
So he could not achieve undisputed at any weight so he will move the goalpost and redefine it, yeah that sounds about right for Floyd.
In his defense the only reason why he wasn’t is because Baldimir couldn’t afford the WBA and IBF sanctioning fees. Personally I think Baldimir messed up Floyd being 2 division undisputed as Hatton was on his radar and had the other 2 pieces to come the puzzle at Light WW.
Please vote for most ridiculous Ladies and gentleman, the nominees are as follows
Jermell Charlo vs Jorge Mota Cota
Tyson Fury vs Tom Eurobum Schwartz
GGG vs Steve Sushi Rolls
Wilder vs Dominic Easy Breazy Breazeale
1. Cota was a late sub on a guy who’s good boxer but not a draw and most of the top 10 are tied up. So pass
2. This one is bad
3. Coming off of a loss but still bad
4. Mando fight didn’t have a choice against a guy barley outside the top 10. So pass.
Verdict. I gotta say Fury. GGG’s is bad but you need a morale boost after a tough loss.
And for people say in Canelo and Joshua.... Quit hatin
This, Foreman was destroying high-level fighters. Wilder took the step up against Fury and couldn't get him out of there. Even Ortiz was taken out due to exhaustion rather than Wilderspower. Let's see how Wilder does against higher level opposition.
You could argue Ortiz was saved by the bell in round 5 and Fury was flattened with 40 pounds on him and has the ability to box while hurt. Breazale while a no hoper had a solid chin and Wilder cracked him.
TBRB don't have Fury as a Lineal Champion
imo they should have never taken him out.... we all know that he was gonna come back and box again.....
does anyone know if theres a legit timeline where you get unrecognized if you haven't fought in a certain amount of time?
or is it any org can pretty much make it up on the fly?
According to TBRB Mikey is still champ
I never really followed all of that so I don't know what to believe
The first time is kinda up for debate but the second is not, Andrade was Mells mando and he walked.
It was the other twin, not this one.
It was Jermell. Jermall was champ already.
Can’t find any link on that apart from a thread started by MCC.
For undisputed, that would be an easy sell for DAZN. Would make the risk/reward worth it for Canelo imo.
You got link?

Canelo was interested but DAZN chose him as a last resort after GGG and Krusher.
How far could this dude have gone? I don't think i've ever seen this dude get outboxed by anyone. Hes such a talented and gifted fighter, but cursed with a glass chin
The one decision loss he has was due to a poor ref
White Americans asking Latino-Americans where they're from:
White guy: Where are you from buddy ol' pal?
Latino: United States
White guy: No, like, where are you from?
Latino: California
White guy: No, no...like, where are you from really, like where are your parents from?
Latino: Mexico
White guy: Okay, so you're Mexican then.
Latino athlete wins something in sports:
White guy: He's from here. He was born and raised in 'Murica. He represents the Red, White and Blue. He's not actually Mexican.
Fun fact I had that exact same convo with an Indian guy in Japan.
Yeah but who has Munguia beat to be ranked #1?
Boxrec uses a computer system for its ranking. So he beat the guy who beat Cotto. Similar to how Horn was 8th P4P after beating Pac
Pffffftttt. Korobov ain't even a threat to Andrade. There's way too many misconceptions about Andrade "passing" on fighters it's the other way around.
WBO orders Demetrius Andrade vs Matt Korobov for middleweight title

Andrade Passes on Middleweight Title Shot, Korobov to Fight Saunders Instead
http://thaboxingvoice.com/andrade-passes-on-middleweight-title-shot-korobov-to-fight-saunders-instead/
Apparently he was enough of a threat for him to request the title shot then pull out.
That's a really good one. Can't believe I forgot him. Probably would change my pick. I wonder if Uncle Al will let him come out to play.
Idk why he's not in the WBO rankings.
Al would let him go fight him but idk if Andrade wants too. He passed on Koborov a few years back. He’s not I. The ranking because Al mostly shunned the WBO after the Austin Trout fiasco.
If Tank & Ryan is a super fight this is too! & obviously the fight isn't happening right now or next. But this is the next super fight.
Bad example Tank and Ryan are the two most popular guys in the division even more then Teo, Loma, and Haney. Both these guys not so much. This is like Ortiz vs Ugas
Wilders power and speed bails him out where his skills lack..... He catches him eventually.
Fury had to completely overhaul his fighting style to beat him.
Black guy here, not offended. Broner called him Mickey Mouse he put up a pic of Mickey vs Donkey Kong. I like to save my anger for something a bit more offensive.
^^^^^^^ I'm with this guy..
Floyd never fought for legacy. Always for cash. He never ducked anyone. Fought the biggest money fights & in the process acquired the best resume of his era. He has the best resume even when resume wasnt his main goal lol..
Also true..
