    I think he underachieved.

    He had insane power, very good speed, good reach, good athleticism.

    He was unfortunately also about as ignorant a person as it's possible to be.

    If he had even learned some basic things like a half decent jab and a bit of defensive subtlety he could have been a lot better than he was.

    He was a fighter that got by on pure talent and very little else, and he never improved from a technical standpoint in 15 years as a pro.

      There's no doubt that the heavyweight division is better off if there's a viable US fighter.

      It just doesn't happen any more though. There isn't a single US fighter in anyone's top 10. Obviously the orgs don't really count when they're ranking the likes of Hunter, Anderson, Torres .

          Overrated bum. Protected and fed PBC set ups. They knew he was nothing, they had no confidence in him after learning Wladimir knocked him out in sparring with a jab. A limited athlete who was marketed as a big puncher with his fraudulent wins vs Haymon employees. A lot of people fell for the hoax. It should have been obvious Wilder was nothing when he ducked Joshua and especially Whyte and Povetkin. The bum is still ducking Joshua too.

              Exposes himself more and more about how little he knows by the day.

              Whoever is the best will be the champion. Race is irrelevant.

                Before the Arabs came in touch with technology they were predominantly known for their extensive involvement in exploiting various tribes.

                  Middle aged white man who used to hate anyone who wasn’t white or slavic. Think he may have been part of the rainbow community in Vancouver. We had a long running BS feud. I stopped beefing with him when i found out his age at the time. I felt sorry for him after. He lied about his age for years. On another site i was also on i saw a thread he was posting on about how he was 25 during Hagler/Hearns or something. The fight was in 1980. At the time he would have been 62. I was shocked & immediately stopped the beef thinking i was having an internet beef with a 62 year old bitter white man…

                    Yeah man. I used to see you on Boxrec too. You were doing well in their Pick 'em game too.

                    Freedom and Xoo. Those two must be happy with Trump's current immigration operation.

                      they are going to start by trying to rob canelo in sept. .

                      crawford will be allowed to juice and fight again with his loaded gloves

                      they conducted the pysop of "busting" munguia for PEDs in saudi, so that all of the attention and scruntity will be placed on canelo before crawford

                      trying to indimidate canelo and make him stand down. they tried to ensnare him in saudi but canelo outsmarted them.

                      crawford is working with the #1 sport drug provider in the world. with these comments, it makes it all very obvious what the plan is here.

                      CANELO wont let it happen though.
