Official: PBC on ESPN Alexander VS Martinez RBR Thread

but Alexander beat Maidana...........Boxing so weird.

Triangle theories never work in boxing. Actually must time it's the exact opposite.

[gauze]

a possible contender for fighter of the year? lol

Just pointing out for the sake of comedy.

Make Spence vs. Alexander.

Good point. This year has been absolute crap for fighter of the year, and we only have 2.5 months left. Floyd might win it off the Pacquiao win alone.

Canelo, if he gets by Cotto, would probably be the leading candidate with Kirkland + Cotto, but I have Cotto over Canelo.

I literally cannot name another contender outside of that.

Yeah it's strange and funny at the same time. I think Martinez strength is what played the difference.

Maidana hits hard but he's not the strongest fighter and that why Alexander was able to handle him the way he did.

Good fights. I had Martinez winning 6-4 and Selby-Montiel 6-6.

I thought Montiel was going to get knocked out. He showed up last night.

I think GGG will get strong consideration.

i was fully expecting alexander to draw for the 'i hurt my left hand in the 2nd round' type exuses, instead he comes out with some deluded type, how he's still the best type ting.
bizarre, last chance of his career really and he gets battered and nearly stopped by d level opposition with 4 ko's to his name.
lost me 50 quid as well

In all honesty he should have but Selby was a coward, Montiel for me fought better but Selby only did just enough to take the nod and get the victory it was a C- performance from him though.
