Comments Thread For: Ward: Canelo's Refusal to Fight Benavidez Would Taint His Legacy

[LAchargers373]

Did you just call a fringe level fighter in Mugabi an elite HOF?

No one should be allowed to call themselves boxing fans other than the select few who know what they're talking about. The rest are too crazy to know what nonsense they're talking.

I didn’t call mugabi HOF it’s a fact. It’s not my opinion it’s literally a fact. Go to canastota and you will see his plaque there. Wtf is wrong with you idiots lmao. YDKSAB. Clowns been watching boxing for like 5 years bunch of imbeciles rofl

Yes, they should fight. But the article talked about legacies. It's now a legacy fight for Canelo to fight a 27-year old interim champion?

Hi, what would you consider a legacy fight for canelo? Do he have one already? And if it is, who is it?

List all his world class wins? When you find you can't, then you'll understand why he isn't close to being elite.

Mugabi being in the hall just goes to show how much of an embarrassment they are. There's so many fighters who don't belong while fighters who should be there, are not. No one of any sense should have respect for them. It's actually laughable. You called him elite. So prove it.

Ummm Canelo moved up and his 2nd or 3rd fight was against the P4P #1...

What you forget about that? Then you call Canelo a coward??

Man you are a HYPOCRITE make up your dang mind...

And he got a gift. ran it back EVENTUALLY and got another gift. LOL.

[messi807]

Exactly! Canelo is getting grilled by other great Mexican fighters at that, they don't like the way he's quaking, I meaning sounding!

Very few respect Alveroid, I mean Canelo lately. I can't recall the last time anyone even praised him for anything. Got's to step it up and stop the fear.

[messi807]

Wards decision to retire young and undefeated when he had 2 killers stepping up into mandatories is talked about every time I see his name pretty much.

I mean.. can't really call someone a killer that's 33 years of age and had less than 10 fights - but I understand casuals watch the sport too.

Who did he fight tho? I’m waiting for his career signature win. U put geale and Lemieux and jacobs all above mugabi YDKSAB. How bout Lara? Why didn’t GGG fight Lara? I’ll tell u why. We all saw why when he fought dervychenko and was gifted that decision. You can’t say canelo is a ducker and still be some sort of GGG fan. You absolutely can’t have it both ways lol

And you continue to do it lol with unrelated statements and random other questions. Damn you aren't too bright. WTF is so special about Mugabi? ONCE AGAIN, since you're obviously a little slow, I never anywhere stated anywhere that anyone was "above" or "better" than anyone. Simple fact, ONCE AGAIN, is that GGG was a middleweight, and those 3 guys I mentioned were all middleweight champions (Geale was actually unified champ and Jacobs a 2 time champion). And GGG beat them all (including knocking down and beating a near 190 lb Jacobs.) Mugabi was never even a middleweight champ and once again held a single belt in his career for 8 months. What exactly makes him "elite HOF?"

I never said GGG was the greatest fighter who ever lived. But give the man the respect he deserves. His skillset and chin (obviously one of the best if not THE best of all time) would, in his prime, match him up pretty strong (notice I didn't say beat) against any middleweight who ever lived. Hell, Canelo couldn't even hurt him at 40 years old, and I thought Canelo would knock him out in the third fight.

He has just as many elite wins as GGG
mugabi would have knocked out Lemieux geale and jacobs too like cmon man those 3 are trash. And they are golovkins best wins. If you are ggg fan which u seem to be aren’t u disappointed he never fought anyone? There were a lot of great fights out there for him

You are dealing in hypotheticals.
who did he ever fight? He had many opportunities. The 3 people I named are BUMS. Name any non cab drivers on his resume that aren’t canelo jacobs or dervychenko. Find any elite opponents outside of canelo. Triple dud

[El_Maldito_Rey]

He has failed to even negotiate for a Benavidez fight. That is what you do if you want more money. Canelo was already offered 55m plus PPV for Benavidez, which would be his biggest ever purse. You must really enjoy living in an alternate reality.

the $55 million was already proven to be false. Sampson is a liar, he got proven he was a liar and you sheep believe anything anyone tweets.

unless you have some concrete proof that there was an offer, and not someone’s tweet, then post it.

go on post it.
