    Why is it some fighters get hyped up on here before they do anything?

    Kovalev, GGG, Matthysee these 3 fighters have done next to nothing to merit the hype they get on here. Yet a lot make it like they are the person to beat....why?? and yes the media also hypes fighters like Broner, Canleo while they do not deserve it at all...yet proven fighters get discredited and told they need to fight these fighters who have done jack ****. This is ass backwards and dumb

    Boxing is about excitement. They provide it.

      Kovalev had 4 KOs last year, all in early rounds.

        Who cares? You don't care when Floyd isn't fighting the best competition available.

          Believe it or not but people like to watch knockouts. Pulling shoulder roll for 12 rounds buy a "black, slick" guy who throws 6 punches a round and never KOs anyone is just fucking boring.

            They mistake beating bums badly confusing that and thinking they can do the same to top competition...which is usually so hilariously wrong.

            Wtf does being black have to do with being a slick boxer? But If a slick boxer beats the exciting guy you like that means your boxer wasn't **** really .

                Campillo was a former champion, beat Tavoris Cloud. He fought top contenders and no one had ever destroyed him before.

                Cleverly was an undefeated titleholder, who had never been down in a fight before.

                The other two were ordinary contenders, but the way Kovalev took them out was impressive.
                Campillo just got knocked the fk out again by a fonfara he isn't the same guy who got robbed against cloud, and cleverly???? wtf please when people say this guy has done anything all I hear is "But he killed a guy in the ring doe" -_-

                  It's only KO artists. Notice no fighter with a low KO tally gets hype.

                  I admit I rather watch Matthysse, GGG, Kovalev, over Terrence Crawford but that's about it.
