Let's just say that an upset would not surprise me.

[Gypshot]

Canelo v Beterbiev might come next if both guys are victorious.

Really? Don't you know Browne is chinny? Don't you know he's facing the strongest Light Heavyweight of all-time?

I can see Marcus landing a lot of great stiff jab to Beterbiev that might last the fight a bit more.. but that's it; he'll finish on the floor.

I'm not telling that the upset WILL happen. Just a sense that it may.

Beterbiev took a lot of shots last time against Deines. Perhaps because he didn't feel them, but it was not a good sign.

GGG - kell brook & jacobs

Kovalev - Ward and Alvarez

Danny Jacobs - Derevyanchenko

Callum Smith - John Ryder

Saunders - all opponents apart from Lemieux

Not really.

but I can do that with every past great fighter as well.

Its not that hard you do know that right?

just a little sample

Floyd - pac Only after Manny was brutally KOed my Marquez.

charlo - Derv only aftern getting beat up by Jacobs and Ggg

loma- Nakatani Teo Left over and Commey on the way

Pretty easy

whether he did it or not on purpose canelo fought a lot of guys after they looked bad or were trending downwards. ducking ggg for years and dropping the belt to fight bums like khan and liam smith at catchweights lol. i guess its up to you how much of that stuff matters, i mean he still fought him just not in a timely manner. kovalev wasnt even a fight anyone wanted as he was well past it not that canelo was avoiding him since they werent in the same division its just not that great, callum smith yeah he looked dead the fight before and should have lost. some of the others are nitpicking but for example when beterbiev destroyed gvodyk...that would have been a great fight but no can do. when ggg was a wrecking ball...no can do. its just kinda lame, doesnt mean canelo isnt an elite fighter but yeah just lame. we saw floyd do the same thing with pac, marg, cotto although that was more blatant as they were in the same division. canelo at 168 doesnt have any pressure since no one good is there

Danny Jacobs after Derevyanchenko means exactly what? That was a good win for Danny and he didn't look bad in it. Derevyanchenko is just a good fighter that makes it tough on everyone.

Plant won every round vs Truax.

You should have mentioned Yarde for Kovalev, not Ward/Alvarez.

LOL, GGG was still the favorite going into the first fight.

This thing you are doing is the same crap people used to do for every Floyd/Manny opponent. Stop it, Canelo is still fighting champions and is about to completely unify a division.

What exactly has GGG been doing in the meantime? How about Beterbiev post-Gvozdyk? How about Bivol? How about Charlo? How about Benavidez?

Good news. Interesting fight but I believe in the end browne will take a shellacking! beterbeiv wins by knock out!
