    Brook, Frampton and Smith

    In the coming months the following fights will be taking place:

    Kell "The Special One" Brook Vs Gennady "God of War" Golovkin

    Carl "The Jackal" Frampton Vs Leo "El Terremoto" Santa Cruz

    Liam "Beefy" Smith Vs Saul "Canelo" Alvarez


    Regardless of the narratives being offered by some who.....

    a) Want to belittle said fights in an attempt to further their own agenda of worshiping their chosen hero
    b) Underestimate some of the above fighters through ignorance or
    c) Truly believe these fights above to be uncompetitive cherry picks against smaller lesser men(Frampton very much less so)

    I believe them to be competitive fights. In fact I think we may see a real change of the guard in boxing. Some think Kell is crazy, I however believe he is exactly as his nickname suggests and that is a special fighter. Frampton's stamina and chin have been questioned recently and many seem to think that Leo will expose this, I think he's already beaten a better fighter in Quigg. Smith has been called the weak link in the division and outright a bum, I think he a VERY intelligent fighter with deceptive power.

    So I'm going on record, yeah I know they are all close fights if not downright steep hills to climb. But I'm predicting upsets in all of them. And if I'm wrong about them all?? How funny would that be

    P.S Try not to get the usual Canelo/GGG argument going please....it's happening in many other threads, doesn't need to happen here.

      Ugh.....I've clearly outlined above that I feel differently so perhaps feel like providing an actual reason to why? Or do you not like discussing boxing and how fights play out? my bad, I assumed you were a boxing fan.

      Now before you cry, I'm saying anyone of these guys compare to Ali but wasn't he supposed to killed by Foreman??

        Frampton vs LSC is gonna be a great fight. Frampton isn't getting enough credit moving up fighting one of the best in the division without tune-ups. Lomachenko got credit but people are saying Frampton is ducking Rigo.

        I think Canelo went after the easiest of the World Champions at 154 but Smith is a World Champion so it's a legitimate fight.

        Brook vs. GGG is a spectacle. It's not a competitive fight.

          Frampton did pretty much duck Rigo. He's kinda doing what Canelo is doing but instead of dropping a division he is going up one.

          Smith is much better than advertised.

          I genuinely disagree but won't argue anyone who thinks Brook has no chance, I understand.

              I don't view the Frampton/LSC fight as a cherry pick at all

              But you are smoking on some good ish if you think Quiggs a better fighter then LSC. Leo would beat the living sh.it out of Quig. Quiggs thinking brain couldn't deal with the constant pressure of LSC

                    Quigg is bigger, longer, hits harder and can match his engine. He also wasn't dropped by Martinez. Also regardless I am smoking some good ish
