    Usually the third guy acts (like Roy Jones) as the "voice of reason'ish" but even Hopkins was on the act yesterday. They made the Usyk vs Hunter painful to watch. Stop fawning over Usyk while he's in there vs a live dog (especially in the first 8 rds)!
    I like Hopkins. He is one of my all time favorites, but keep in mind he is a stockholder in Golden Boy and one of GB's most visible reps. He is a promoter first and foremost.

        boxrec can be garbage for physical stats. they often take the measurements from media outlets, who fudge with numbers for marketing purposes. if anybody can find a pciture of the two of them, or with them standing next to the same guy in different pictures, you'll see a heck of a lot more than 2 inches between them. there's also reach. crawford has close to a half of a foot in reach advantage.


        crawford is a heck of a lot bigger than lomachenko. 2-3 weight classes of natural size at this point. lomachenko has a small body that has basically done all of the "filling out" that it will ever do. if you take a close look at crawford's bones, like his hands, etc, you'll see that he's a bigger guy who sheds weight to fight at 140, and will eventually be a 147 or even 154 lber.

            Crawford isn't that much taller lmao but he's definitely got a lot of mass on him. His manager is 100% correct, Loma should not take a fight with Crawford.

              How about Crawford vs Loma at 137? Is Loma down?

              Again, Rigo doesn't think it's suicide to fight Loma at 130.

              Rigondeaux is boxing'a last unsung hero
