Comments Thread For: Top Rank preparing to 'rebuild' troubled Jared Anderson

[ELPacman]

I like Anderson's style for heavyweight. Very aggressive and comes to fight. I don't see anything wrong with him yet. He just lost to the bigger puncher that could also take a punch. I think he'll be exciting for any heavyweight out there. Someone mentioned Torres. That would be a ****er. Torres would probably lose that too.

[low blows]

It's Andersons style. I called it long ago. Anderson trys to fight like he's Shakur or Keyshawn. You cannot fight that way in the HW division at a high level. Smaller fighters can bcuz they can use their feet but not heavies.

Most heavyweights can't but Usyk does it and years ago prime Holyfield did it but in general the typical heavyweight can't.

[Butt stuff]

Martin got stopped by Ortiz, and beat a couple of bad fighters. He is at that same level with Anderson, good enough to look better than the terrible fighters, but imo, if either stepped up to Usyk, Fury, Dubois, etc, they get stopped pretty easily.

Whoops, my bad I was talking about Martin Bakole, not Charles Martin haha.

Of course the fans will eat you alive after a loss like that.
But it's important to note that in the old days, a loss such as this was seen as part of a fighter's education.
Anderson is about 5 years away from what could be his prime.

From here, it's all about his mindset. That could benefit from some growing up too.

I can't write him off yet.
