Hopkins-Shumenov Malignaggi-Porter & Undercards RbR Discussion Thread

[dan_cov]

Agonising and people go on like boxing has evolved, haha, what a laugh!

These guys of today don't study, they can't adapt, they have zero ring I.Q, nothing just gawps. All that amateur experience and for what? Nothing! Meaningless, may as well of had no fights.
Duppy's winging right hands and hoping to get lucky.

The reality is 99.9% of todays 'boxers' are absolute ****. Boxing hasn't evolved. These guys couldn't go back into any era and succeed
The so called ATGs of today are placed that way due to meaningless titles.

The only boxers with serious ability is Floyd & Rigondeaux, outside of that, 'good fighters' and a whole heap of ****!

Shumenov won gold at the worlds? I gather that is even harder than olympic gold, is it not? Speaks volumes for how easy it must be to succeed in the amateurs these days. That guy had nothing. He couldn't beat my cat.

Honestly, I have lost my love for the sport. Its been this way for years now. The fighters of today on the whole are a damn joke.

Quillin is another sack of useless ****. He would be a journeyman in any other era, probably would be in this one too if he had any balls tbf

truly atg victory

There he is!! In time to celebrate B-Hops greateness over his legendary win over "bruce lee" shumenov.

Don't hate Hopkins at all just think it's an absolutely laughable notion to say that beating Shumenov indicates that he's a Top 15 ATG which of course he is not nor close either.

I don't even know what you're attempting to say with the Roy Jones Jr rematch.

A guy that was so vastly superior to all of his opposition beat Hopkins in his prime rather decidedly yet in the rematch, years later, HOPKINS was able to shut the former superior fighter down. It's impressive that Hopkins takes away the benefits of one's own youth at such an advanced age. The opponent is not important at this point. They are all title holders and with a predominately winning record every time.

I'm telling you my friend this fight is not happening in the UK I'd be absolutely stunned shocked if it was to be. Right before I brought my ticket. But that's dreamland because it's simply not happening.

And yes Brook get's stopped either way.

Porter is going to put a beating on him.

There was a Porter YT video/interview where he eluded to having no interest in fighting overseas, so yeah he's not leaving the cozy confines of murica.

What you babbling on about?

Roy Jones beat Hopkins in 1993, Hopkins beat his corpse in 2010?

What is your point?

Fighters age differently believe it or not.

Good night of boxing. VERY shocked by the way Malignaggi was beat, I did expect Porter's youth and strength to prevail but I never expected such a demolition.

Not surprised at how Hopkins outsmarted Shumenov, I said before the fight that Shumenov was too robotic / mechanical for the crafty / slippery Hopkins. But it is still impressive to actually see it happen.

NyQuillin is a bum though, for real. So overrated. As soon as he decides to step up, he will start racking up the L's.
