Comments Thread For: Canelo: I Still Feel I'm The Best; Name a Fighter Who Takes Risks Like Me - Nobody

[GlassJoey]

I thought Charlie Z took more risks when he fought Wilder

[hhh1200]

AJ - No rigged cards, no ducked mandos, offered Wilder and Fury contracts out the box, fighting for heavyweight titles well under 20 fights without the heavy amateur experience as Cubans, Central Asians and Eastern Euros. Not even close.

Go to Kronk and fulfill your destiny!

Team Fury, Lennox, Vlad, ?

When he moves UP 2 weight classes, then your statement would be true.

Usyk is alreary fighting much bigger guys than him. Prerty sure Jushua was serveral pounds heavier Usyk, and remember there is not limit on weight for heavyweight. When he faces 270 pound Fury when he is natural Cruiser 200 pounds, that is more challenging than moving 2 weight classes.

The best dont get DOMINATED and damn near shut out, period. He had already won a title at that weight class too. And undisputed at 168 is noteworthy but is also one of the WORST weightclasses in boxing! Had he become undisputed at 160, he wouldve earned real praise. Sorry Saul, youre def not #1 any more

nelo is right he is the guy taking the most risks, every time he opens his diva mouth he risks the boxing world laughing at him

Canelo isn't Jumping up to 175 it's his natural weight, he takes drugs that allowed him to fight smaller men. This isn't opinion it's a fact that gets swept under the rug..

ok. Don't thin Clenbuterol does that and in any case he has to be presumed innocent of recent use - he was caught in 2017. So what drugs are you referring to - any links appreciated.
Also I know he's a big unit but he's 5'9" so right in there as a solid MW rather than a natural 175 pounder. If anything I would think he's take drugs to get bigger - his body has morphed in size.

If it is left the Hearn he will be fighting the great John Ryder, that'll out the brakes on a little! but then he was happy to fight little Chiny Khan, Bivol is his only real risk to date and talk of fighting Usyk is ridiculous . Canelo is a good fighter who ought to stay at middle/super and try and dominate.He is an irritating bastard but that's why he seems to get on with the most irritating bastard of all Edward Hearn who will be only too pleased to have him fight zombies.

[SteveM]

He says he wants tor rematch Bivol, is it true?
Why wait, does he need to roid up some more?

This is pro boxing - nobody is leaving 75/100 million on the table to fight Golovkin - and if it gets delayed any longer it'd be a complete mismatch.

Most commenters were saying Joshua should have waited before re-matching Usyk - and so they proved to be right. But Canelo who got beat upon by Bivol worse than AJ did by Usyk should take a rematch straight away?

Sure but Charlo and David Benavidez are both are wiling to fight Canelo next Tuesday, where ever for what ever...isn't that risk enough?

Do you know what the meaning of taking a risk is? That's not a risk, them "fighting Canelo next Tuesday" would only be for the money. They know they have no shot at winning, they want to cash out. A risk for Charlo would've been fighting at 168 for one of the belts last summer in order to get Canelo in the fall, same for Benavidez, but all they're doing is either fighting cab drivers or not fighting at all.

Besides the question is "Name a Fighter Who Takes Risks Like Me"

Name some them, not "this fighter is willing to risk something, maybe" Name something Charlo and Benaviez have done to say that was riskier than what Canelo did vs Bivol.

[_Rexy_]

Taking a hell of a risk pulling Golovkin out of retirement and up to 168.
