Be honest: You had to google "Ilunga Makabu"

[Superbee]

Guess a cruiserweight champion who’s ranked #2 best cruiserweight is a nobody now for fook’s sake

BoxRec has a weird algorithm for ratings... They also decided that Callum Smith is now the top LHW in the world...

[YoungManRumble]

I knew him even though I am a casual noob. Some of us are just sponges for this stuff.

After canelo called him out.



who the *** is this guy, low hanging fruit. seems sus

I remember that Koba, a few others and myself watched his fight with Cieslak held in the middle of the jungle. A very difficult to find stream of a Polish PPV. Fight was a fight of the year candidate.

The guy is aggressive, hits hard and is southpaw. Could prove more dangerous than people realize.

Fought Bellew at Goodison.

Did people miss that fight?

[CasperUK]

Makabu has that one punch power that stuns

But why not just fight Beterbiev instead?

I watched Makabu vs Bellew live, twas a good night!!

[AboutBillions]

This fight will be fixed, MakaBu will make money from the backhand. He has nothing to gain in beating canelo he’s has only $$$$ to gain.

They will tell him “don’t worry canelo will drop the belt and you will fight for it next.”

[JakeTheBoxer]

I told you guys that more than a year ago.

Everybody was laughing.

Canelo knows he has no business fighting at 175.

His next steps are: cherry pick a cruiserweight title, than go for bridgerweight title ( WBC must legitimize that); than he will probably fight Bryan or Charr at heayvweight.

Enjoy the moment, this is a freak show now, Canelo is the new Toney. At some point he will end knocked out cold by a heavyweight.

[Johnny Rubber]

Just saying yesterday Canelo fans were talking all that **** about how you need to run the gauntlet just to earn a shot a Canelo. The same Canelo that fought Amir Khan. Now he's fighting a nobody and Canelo fans are completely cool with it.

CW Champ is now a nobody? Gotta love the casuals around here
