HBO showing PBC how it's done.

The funny thing is if Canelo was healthy, HBO would have done Canelo vs. a bum instead of Lomachenko-Walters, Salido-Miura, and hopefully Golovkin-Jacobs. Who in their right mind would want to see Canelo vs. Monroe over the 3 fights I mentioned? No wonder this sport is on life support.

Canelo vs a bum...or GGG vs a bum...is nothing great. But that's what HBO had been giving us for most of the year.

See how much better it is when that money is spread around on several competitive matchups instead? I've been saying forever that HBO and Showtime would be doing the fans a bigger favor if they just pay for the best fights instead of signing guys to exclusive and expensive contracts.

You can't ask for a better fight, at least not in pure toe a toe action.

[MEXfistology]

You are not far wrong!! Apart from it would probably be Canelo - Rosado.

Miura might just stop Salido. But damn how many brutal fights does Siri need to be in to get his just due. Mad respect to both fighters

Salido is a true, true warrior - kind of fighter the sport sucks in and spits out - I hope for his sake he is making good money and someone has the sense to demand he stops when he is close to done.

[BigStomps]

Whoever said miura might stop Salido is an idiot!
Have you ever seen Salido fight???

[Rip Chudd]

Canelo should get injured more often.

I know right
