Lol

I wonder who Bread was referring to when he mentioned "the idiot troll on the Boxing Scene blog?"

[NachoMan]

RJJr over Floyd?!? Learned everything I need to know about you from that.

How is canelo a super fight when his biggest wins were over alfonzo gomez and josesito lopez (140 pounders ) at 154.

And a controversial win over an overated trout in Texas of all places..

That got him the floyd fight. But breadman thinks thats a super fight . Why? Cause canelo is mexican ?? Race sells the ppv . Not accomplishment breadman.

Id love to hear bread speak on that.

imo canelo has always been hype. Hyped up to boost up floyds resume,But in reality that kid has beaten a bunch 140 pounders at 154 And trout.
(i had trout winning) canelo gets catchweighted by floyd to top it off.

Bottom line is canelo has a angulo after prison another controversial win over Lara and kirkland after inactivity adter floyd .Canelo is overated . Super fight .lmao
Race hype

What's with this push to make Willie Pep an ATG? Ten years ago he wasn't even in most guys top ten, hell he was rarely discussed at all. I guess a cpl of YouTube boxing analysis videos does wonders for your career.

Hell yes, RJJ over Floyd. Jones hardly lost a ROUND before he went up to heavyweight. Or I should say until he came back down from heavyweight.

Floyd Just Showing How Out Of Touch He Is With Rich History Of Boxing! Illiterate!

Not only can he not read Harry Potter, he also has no idea about the legends before him who paved a way for a rube like Floyd Jr to come from the hood to make a living. Duran, Whitaker, Chavez Sr, are greats, but Floyd has no idea what they really did, who they fought, and where they fall in line. In no particular order are a list of legends that warrant a higher spot on the All Time Greats list, win, lose, or draw, ahead of Floyd Jr:

Ali
Marciano
Joe Louis
Ray Robinson
Ray Leonard
Marvin Hagler
Alexis Arguello
Salvador Sanchez
Joe Frazier
George Foreman
Tommy Hearns
Roberto Duran
Julio Cesar Chavez
Henry Armstrong
Archie Moore
Larry Holmes
Bernard Hopkins
Mike Tyson
Michael Spinks

Just to name a few...

So Breadman is still, like many posters here, ignoring the statements repeatedly made by Sulaiman that the winner MUST fight GGG in their NEXT FIGHT. Once again, someone too stuck on his own beliefs to accept the facts. A shame to see that in someone who is supposed to be an objective reporter.

Breads last response is hilarious

Dude was probably on about Thurman facing Spence too..all bcuz Floyd said

As far as Berto being the opponent of choice, i can see the reasoning behind it andd im ok with it. They went with Bertos past accomplishments at 147lbs(former WBC,IBF Titlist) rather than his current standing. All you Khantrrds shouldnt have a problem with that logic! Current standing aside, again-khantrrds shouldnt have a problem, and if we go with whats been accomplished specifically at 147lbs, Berto has accomplished more than Brook, Thurman, Porter and especially Khan. Even if we go with current standing thatll still exclude Khan bcuz Brook, Porter snd Thurman have beaten higher rated 147lbers than khanjob.
