very valid points. I will say, the knowledge/lack of boxing knowledge is actually what I think makes canelo fans worse than pac fans. Pac fans don’t know any better. Many canelo fans do, yet they’ll deliberately argue when they know that they’re wrong just because they love canelo more than they do the actual sport.

I hadn’t looked at it that way. Agreed

that is total bullshlt

boxing is 100% controlled, and defined, by weight categories

the original 8 divisions were revised over time to promote more even competition between fighters who are the same size

just common-sense really
...

There is no George Foreman physique at smaller weights. That build is anatomically not possible

LMAO, Bread has finally had enough of these mentally ill Canelo stans.

The eye test didn't help Lomachenko either.

In-ring body of work eventually showed the truth between him and Teofimo.

insiders who knew, publicly stated that fight would REALLY test Lomachenko, and Teo had a great chance... and they were right... the resume, and P4P, mathematicians... who said the kid aint ready for someone of that caliber, got wiped out

and then... the exact same thing happened to Teo when he fought the unknown, unheralded, Kambosos

How is Jesper racist? He is from Denmark.

There's nothing wrong with calling out Bread for putting "the eyeball test" over actual, proven body of work. It's a valid criticism based on logic.

You think racism is only a American issue?!? Being from Denmark means you can't be a bigot?

I wish people would understand the difference between racism and bigotry.

If you think that Blacks are naturally better at basketball than Asians, that makes you a racist. If you hate all Blacks because they are better at basketball than Asians, that makes you a bigot.

[TheUptownKid]

it is the ONLY qualifier... IF, you have the knowledge/understanding/experience to support it... because...

FACT: fighters with a better resume get beaten all the time
FACT: P4P fighters lose to non-P4P fighters all the time

resume and P4P are over-rated as fcuk when it comes to picking a winner

FACT: Lomachenko's far superior resume and P4P ranking did not help him beat Teofimo Lopez

I am a big Canelo fan, but I ranked Crawford over Canelo many times on this website before breadman did a few weeks back

paribus ceteris... if those guys were naturally the same size, nobody going up or coming down... I would slightly favor Crawford

but I have no problem with anyone ranking Canelo over Crawford... there is nothing in it






...

I see the same thing. P4p is an opinion, but in my eyes I think Crawford has a bit more juice should they be the same size

''I dont live in America but from the outside it seems to me that some salty fans and media dont really appreciate Canelo. I'm not saying you dont appreciate him. The media should praise him to the high heavens despite his drug suspension.''

lol yeah a real nelo fan wouldnt say that would he? bit sus that is
