spence is a coward.
he turned down a huge payday against a shot cotto.
that tells you plenty about this scared coward.He is not a coward and no huge payday to fight Cotto was ever on the table. You are just a hater of good champions, an idiot and full of sh it.

what do you think? 50/50 fight or 60/40 for Canelo?I think it would be an 87/13 fight in Canelo's favor. Both are great fighters and when two fighters are equally good pound for pound the bigger fighter wins. Spence is a big welterweight while Canelo is a big middleweight who fights at 168 because making 160 is hard for him now.Spence is a fearless fighter but fighting Canelo would get him knocked out. I am a big Spence fan and don't like Canelo but Canelo is very good and too big for Spence.
he is a good heavyweight and probably the best heavyweight fighting now. I don't think he is the best heavyweight in history or even close to being that. I have seen lots of heavyweights live or on film who I think would beat him. I think many of them would knock him out just as mediocre champion Wilder came within one second of doing with a slow counting multiple testing referee.
Rank these guys from best to worst
GGG
Loma
Kovalev
Usyk
Povetkin
Taking into account their skill level, opposition faced, accomplishments (Pro and AM), etc.If they are all at their best in their prime I rate GGG the best 2nd Loma 3rd Usyk but only at cruiserweight not at heavyweight 4th Kovavev and last Povetkin,I think a prime Povetkin beast a prime Usyk if they fight at heavyweight with no weight limit,
would you want him to fight one more top heavy or straight into Joshua?Fight AJ next. Usyk has been fighting all his adult life. One more fight before AJ won't make any difference at all.If he can't beat AJ now he will never beat him no matter how many more fights he has.
Ali was the heavyweight champion of the world and made many millions in the ring as a prize fighter fighting and defeating other top fighters. Bruce Lee was was a skilled student of martial arts who made his living as a movie actor. In the movies anybody can eat up anybody. A small woman can beat up a big man with ease. One man can beat up 50 men at the same time, The camera can be sped up to make someone twice as fast as they really are. Bruce Lee was unbeatable and incredible in the movies but movies have nothing to do with real life and are just fantasy entertainment. In real life I don't think Bruce Lee ever fought and beat professional fighters or made any money fighting other fighters. Ali was a real life fighting champion and Bruce Lee was a movie champion. In a real life fight I think 210 pound Ali beats 140 pound Bruce Lee with ease and certainty. No contest. A very quick KO win for Ali. This aib't the movies.
I don't think Santa Cruz is cashing out and expecting to lose. i think he expects to win and his chance to win is not that small. the weight limit is 130 and he has been very successful at 130. he throws twice as many punches per fight as Davis so if the fight goes the distance he could win just on landing more punches than Davis in most rounds.
What was the most memorable performance you’ve ever seen from a boxer in which they still ended up losing?Two I can think of right now were GGG losing to Canelo and Pacquiao losing to Bradley. I thought GGG and Pacquiao both fought very well in those fights and deserved to win but officially they both lost.
Prime for a boxer in the lighter weights is between 24 and 28 years old. The Loma who just lost to Lopez was still very good but past his best. If you are going to have a prime Garcia fight Loma then let Loma be prime also and not 32 years old and past prime. I think a prime Loma is too fast and skillful for Danny and Danny never lands a left hook clean enough or hard enough to KO Loma. Loma by ud. Loma has clearly lost a little speed from a few years ago and I think the prime Loma would also have defeated Lopez. Lopez seems better than Garcia was at his best.Khan was easily beating Garcia before he got KOed.
I know. I don't think he will ever be a world champion again but he s a decent fighter who comes to fight. he is a clean fighter who doesn't maul, hold or clinch. He comes to fight and throws lots of hard punches and is fun to watch. He gets hit a lot. his opponent is a top 20 guy which is not bad in today's cherry picking boxing world.
Wilder would win by KO. Boxing has improved a lot since over the last 120 years. The champion of the world is champion of a world with many times the population of Langford's time and boxing is now a world wide sport not just the USA and Europe. The heavyweight champ today makes millions every fight and money brings in talent. Langford didn't make much money and no boxer made all that much money in 1902 or whenever Langford was in his prime. Langford weighed about 160 and was 5 foot 7 inches tall compared to 6 foot 7 inches tall and 220 pounds for Wilder.
A prime Wilder knocks out a prime Roy Jones. Jones is a great fighter but just a natural light heavyweight. Wilder is one of the hardest punchers in history with a very fast and extremely hard long strait right. when just one of those good strait rights hits Jones cleanly Jones will be KOed.
will he make your P4P....and yes i said "when" because he will smash Ramirez
msot criminally underrated boxer todayWill anyone be arrested for underrating Taylor?
If you overrate boxers because they are Cuban or Ukrainian that is your mistake alone so don't blame anyone else. Watch them fight first and rate them by what you see. This stuff you say about fans rating boxers so high because the boxers look like them or are the same as them is BS. Loma, GGG and Usyk are great fighters who did great things in the ring and they are admired by many fans of all races and countries. All of them are rated as among the 10 best pound for pound boxers in the world by every important ranking place.Do you think the guys who rate boxers for Ring magazine, ESPN, Boxrec and Boxing Scene are from Russia or Ukraine? News flash, they aren't. Rate boxers however you want but don't tell us how to rate them.
That is very humble of him unlike Fury who crowns himself as the greatest boxer in history in any weight class. i think he is correct. Holyfield is the best cruiserweight in history in my opinion.
It is more interesting to me but I think either K brother in their prime could KO any current heavyweight including Fury. I know Fury beat Wlad but that was a prime 27 year old Fury against a Wlad a month or two away from turning 40 years old and not prime against prime. For years the K brothers dominated heavyweight and nobody came close to beating them and Wlad had a boring style even when he ended most fights with a KO win. Fury dominates today but he still seems more beatable than the brothers were for a few years. Wilder almost knocked him out and AJ has a chance to knock him out although Fury will be the betting favorite.
No Gamboa has next to no chance to win. Not because Haney is anything special but because Gamboa is so old and washed up. Davis fought one of his worst fights and Gamboa still could not win a single round. Davis vs Santa Cruz is not a mismatch and Santa Cruz is a world champion now. Santa Cruz has a decent chance to beat Davis. Gamboa is a cherry pick.
To me betting is simple. Always bet on the man you think will win the fight or don't bet at all if you are not confident. NEVER bet on the man you think will probably lose because the odds are good. Chances are the underdog you think will lose will indeed lose the fight. Losing money won't be any less painful because you got good odds. Only bet the underdog if you believe he will win. Don't bet on a long shot you think will lose just because the odds are good and you will get a big payday if he does win. That will lose you money damn near every time.The odds on Spence vs Garcia seem about right. I will bet on Spence because i am reasonably sure he will win and the risk that Garcia will win is a very small risk worth taking for me anyway.
spence winning pays 1.33
danny winning pays 3.25
this is a very interesting fight to bet on
what do you guys think, danny is a solid guy, spence got his ass whooped by porter and had that car accident, this is very excitingSpence got his ass whooped by Porter????? I never saw that fight. The fight I saw Porter got his ass whooped by Spence. Porter fought bravely and tried his best but that is not winning the fight, Landing more punches than your opponent and knocking him down is winning and that is what Spence did to Porter.
It's a fact he got shoulder surgery after the fight. He never once said that was an excuse for his loss. Yet, i see many saying he's making excuses because he got shoulder surgery. Did he fake the shoulder surgery?
Loma haters are stupid people. Nobody would have surgery they did not need to have an excuse for losing a fight.
I thught it was a lousy fight for the 1st 7 rounds and that was Loma's fault. The last 5 rounds were very good and Loma won all of them except round 12.
