He boxed pretty well but Ruiz is limited as hell and was completely out of shape. It was a solid performance against a C+ fighter. I don’t think Ruiz is even competitive with Fury or Wilder tbh.
True i do agree with that.
To all boxing fans
Please explain why does Floyd get a pass ?
He just came out saying he did not train for his fight with Conor
Isn’t that a slap in the face to his fans ?
What about those fans who ponied up big bucks to go see a boxing match , two hard training individuals punching each other for victory ?
If Floyd doesn’t take the sport seriously how can we take him seriously ?
If it were any other boxer , who stated that they did not train for a competitive ( no pun intended ) fight , this board would be lit up , with fans wanting his fughin head
So why not Floyd’s head
It wasn’t ok when Andy Ruiz didn’t train , so why is it ok when Floyd doesn’t train ?
Floyd won. He obviously said he took him serious. Just didn't train as much and why would he? He basically fought an amateur boxer.
Don't know why you so emotional about this lol. If andy ruiz would've said he didnt train BUT WON! Then noone would really be annoyed by him. But he didnt train and he lost that's the difference.
Stop being emotional.
Oscar is acting like he's Bob Arum promoting Pacquiao in 2009.
But the game's changed: lots of money is pouring into boxing, guys have many different avenues to get paid. Asking an up-and-coming world champion with lots of options to do two training camps back to back is not realistic.
Canelo needs to fire Oscar. He and Eric Gomez have proven time and time again they don't have what it takes to promote a fighter on this level. Canelo should promote himself.
Facts. I agree. What champion who actually wants to give themselves a chance to win would do back to back training camps after a fight. Nobody lol
Cause he destroyed Ruiz right?😂😂😂
Idiot...
Lmaooooo get him. I think that's the one thing about AJ. He got beat brutally the first fight but he outboxed Ruiz the second fight.
I have no problem with him winning the way he did but you know fans say he ran he didn't fight like a champion etc. I would've preferred he boxed him like he did but at least try and knock him out the last few rounds.
But that's just me.
Caleb Plant has every right to turn the fight down, but which is Canelo getting hate here? Everyone knows when he fights. He's not getting off the May 2nd date. If Plant doesn't feel like he won't have enough time to recover from camp/fight, then okay. Just turn it down and move on. No one forced Kovalev to take the fight and no one is forcing Plant to take it. Simply was offered to him.
This brings up another conversation about how fighters are having far too long training camps. They get out of shape, take a four week pre-camp to lose weight and then start a 8-10 week camp. Super unnecessary.
Where am I hating on Canelo?? I'm just calling it like I see it. ODH ain't getting none of the fights we actually want to see and it's because of lowball offers. No one forced Kovalev you're right but the fact remains he only had barely 2 months to prepare. + Dehydration clauses and a tough fight with yarde .
I'm calling it like I see it. Canelo the boss.
They all will be Hall of Famers regardless if they take losses or not.
True. I don't think losses define a fighter. As far as hall of famers. Obviously loma will be one. I believe Haney and Ryan will be one for sure as well.
Lopez maybe? We're going to have to see.
Davis? Idk man this guy is always messing up somehow lol. Grabbing females, can't even make weight. But he might be idk
Lomachenko.
Haney and Lopez are probably moving up to 140 after 1-2 more fights. and Garcia will assrape Fraud Davis. (And my post history will show I'm not a Ryan Garcia fan)
True. Haney saying he moving up since noone will fight him. At least Lopez does have the loma fight scheduled.
He better be twitchy. Because he's not going to try & knockout wilder in 2 rounds. He can't just go in the highguard and come forward because we've seen that Wilder's power can go through the guard and put someone down. Fury better box from the outside again. He's putting himself in more danger trying to come forward.
Unless he's going to make wilder smother his punches of course...But hell he was knocked out cold and he wasnt even hit clean the first fight.
The problem I have with the Canelos of the world is that they are always trying to get some advantage and don't fight or play in an even fair field.
Right, that's all Im saying. But people will assume I'm hating even though I like canelo lol
Loma or Haney. IMO Loma is the best overall fighter but I like Haney's attributes when matched against Loma.
Yeah I think Haney's attributes is a problem as well for him. So we'll see soon!
I don't know that ODH being in the HOF has any bearing on whether he is telling the truth or not. All I know is when the reporter asked for proof, he couldn't produce any. For you to claim he is 100% credible defies any rational logic.
You can believe ODH if you wish. That is fine. I understand by reading the threads that any number of you believe ODH. Cool.
If you hate PBC and Haymon so much that this is the level of proof you accept then nothing else needs to be posted.
Sad that people believe ODH when Canelo has blatantly said there's no trust or loyalty with him. But hey believe ODH lol
🔥 Regis Prograis vs Maurice Hooker is in the works to potentially take place on DAZN in the spring, Prograis' promoter Lou DiBella has revealed. Talks ongoing between DiBella and Dino Duva/Eddie Hearn for the clash of former super-lightweight world champions. — Michael Benson (@MichaelBensonn) January 15, 2020
Makes sense. Should be a good fight.
I agree. I think Regis beats him though. Maurice is very good though
Is Shyte the most detestable boxer of this era? Should any fighter be willing to fight in the UK after Ryder v Smith;the refs in all outside US, AJ fights;or Shyte not even being required to come up with any credible reason whatsoever as to how DBol got in his system,etc.?
The most pathetic ironic part is that countless nationalistic fanbois who were outraged about Canelo getting popped several months out for a 1 taco amount of clen as found in most mex meat,are the same exact clowns proclaiming Dildo Shytes innocence despite he himself not submitting to a hair follicle,no B sample,& avoiding even coming up with some excuse in any way shape or form because he knows there is no logical excuse for microdosing Dbol & trying to hide it to cheat as well as using kids gloves.
He claimed that he couldn't so much as proclaim his innocence because of his lawyers as if that can somehow come back to bite him & that he needed to wait til the process runs its course,yet here we are & still Dildo Shyte the roid fiend robot💉:booty: 🤖 STILL has no credible explanation for how he possibly was dosed against his will.
That boy cheated for sure. WHERE'S THE B SAMPLE!
fuk the uk, nation of thieves and liars
Yeah Eddie Hearn and the UK just out here doping and cheating nonstop. The worst part is that UK fans allowing the **** to happen.
Imagine crawford being the only black guy. The whole talk of him having to leave bob and justifying the PBC ww's ducking him would change real quick to everyone is ducking crawford. Instead the same trolls and fangirls would say crawford is being ducked and no one wants to fight him. Thoughts?
How are they being protected??? Thurman vs Pacman happened this year and Spence just fought porter to unify then got into an accident?
The reason Bud not getting fights is because he claims everyone ducking him but the reality is they arent. Pacman doing his senator stuff, spence is out injured (Don't know how people just forget this), Porter said he'd fight crawford but crawford said "The fight won't happen"
because they are friends.
Like come on man. And he signed a deal with Bob till 2025. And everyone likes to bring up the Wilder vs Fury rematch but that fight was already taken care of and in negotiations for Feb 22.
All Bob did is sign him and make everyone think that Bob made the deal happened when in fact that deal was basically already done.
Bud boxing himself out. Once again. Spence is out, Pacman doing whatever, Thurman idk what he doing, Porter wants to fight him. Idk how else to explain this man.
I don’t ever want to see Ruiz fight again.
But like others said, if Ruiz wins 2 or 3 legit fights then f**k it, give him the third fight. If they don’t give him the third fight even after he goes on a winning streak then too bad, so sad.
I agree with that for sure.
I like to give a guy a chance to avenge a loss given certain circumstances such as a huge upset or a close match.
For me Andy doesn't deserve one right away simply because he wasted everyone's time. There is no greater motivation than to prove the 1st victory was no fluke. If he could not get up for this fight then he 99% likely is not going to get up for another one.
Andy likely comes in worse shape for a rematch and Joshua in better shape and mindframe given that he seems to have taken a hold of his boxing career again.
Simply put at this moment in time there are more deserving contenders who you know are going to show up to win and give 100%.
Exactly man! Perfect Response!
