Great mailbag Bread, but gotta disagree with you on the idea of sanctioning bodies requiring champs to fight a mando every other fight. If that happened, champs with 2 belts would be doing nothing but mando after mando after mando. Of course mandos are important, but too often the mando is a substandard fight. And what about a champ with 3 or more titles? It would be impossible for him to defend all his titles without getting stripped.

Keep up the good work though..........

I agree having a fighter fight Mando after Mando would be almost impossible to keep more than one belt and a lot of Mando's Are undeserving and some just flat out SUK!!! Heck Don King and Bob Arum used to be able to get anyone of their fighters ranked with a wink, wink, handshake with some $$$$ slipped in the organizations pockets.

To be fair Tyson had NO chance of beating Lewis with the amount of hugging the ref. Let Lewis get away with. He was warned a bunch of times before finally a point was deducted. By then the damage was done asTyson was too tired from not only carrying his weight around the ring but also carrying A 6' 5" 250 lb man around the ring as well!

You ggg fans are just as funny as Donald Trump's hair dew! Canelo been taking on big names since before he fought Mayweather. Triple g fights names no one even heard of until they fight him. You hype up a fighter who knocks out soft no name fighters like he's gonna beat a true young fighter! GGG is in mid 30's and his first true fight will be against canelo, who is in mid to late 20s has about double digit big fight names. Funny how real boxing fans haven't payed attention to that but yet ggg will beat canelo! That's the biggest joke I heard in a while. U see canelo taking his step upward. Don't see the ducking in that. Triple g won't even step down to fight the golden boy star. You will all see what Oscar sees in his fighter when he steps up a class to whoop ggg a**!!

Holy crap
that is the absolutely best analysis of the reality of GGG's situation that I have yet seen. The historical detail alone is priceless.
great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wrt Ward Kovalev I believe that the ref is critical.

Ward likes to punch then leap in to close and smother his opponent. This leads to a pattern of head down holding which is contrary to the rules but those rules are subject to enormous variability in how a given ref interprets them.

The Kessler fight is probably the best example of this technique. Ward uses it ruthlessly and the ref ignores it.

IF the ref takes this away it will be tougher for Ward.
IF Kovalev can time him with an uppercut as he leaps in.
THEN Ward will have a tougher night.

Otherwise, Ward may indeed frustrate Kovalev.

100% it should be the default response to anyone criticizing GGG.

You are a clown .

Canelo fought amir khan a natural 140 pounder.

Not to mention he brought josesito lopez and alfonzo gomez up from 140 to 154 and beat them to get the mayweather fight.

Canelo is overated

keep sucking that knob LMAO

bread completely dropped the ball on lilG's "businessman" comment

lil'G did not cop flak for fighting a welter

lil'G copped flak because he called Kell Brook "too small", then he called Canelo a businessman..... and then he did the exact same thing

lil'G copped flak for his hypocrisy and lies

not for anything else

It sounds like bread prefers to stay away from controversy
