      The hornet stung that ass. pacman is not finished its just horn is a huge welterweight with an awkward style. Horn vs porter is what i wanna see based on styles alone it'll be a bloodbath. hopefully he doesnt hold the belt hostage fighting bums in Australia.

      Ward beats bellew, usyk and joshua. Ward's boxing IQ cannot be matched period. hes the top dog.

      Kovalev is still a dangerous boogeyman to everybody except ward. just because ward beat him doesn't mean everybody else does.

      140 floyd beats the dog sht out of Crawford.

        "major tactics he used against Kovalev (and others) was holding too much"

        He thinks that is bad??? Whats way WORSE is what Lewis and Klitz used to do... Being the taller man, hit them, grab them, drop weight, wait until ref. breaks it up, rinse and repeat.... Try sparring or fighting with a 200+lb flak jacket on??? You'll be dead in the water within a few rounds.

          Them's some serious claims, man. My belief is that Ward's boxing IQ is very good, but overated by some. How else did he nearly get beat by the 'weak-minded' Kovalev? Either way, I could see him beating Bellew though I wouldn't be betting on it, Usyk has much better skills than Bellew and a huge size advantage, Joshua is simply too big. I would be mightily impressed if he was to try any of them though.

            I think he can beat Bellew, not sure about Usyk, but Joshua no way.

              Losing to the #1 P4P should not make you dog sht. I still would bet Kov. to beat the human windmill.

                I don't really track cornermen, but I had no idea that the Breadman was black. LOL

                Anyway, Ward definitely exposed some things about Kov. I see a lot of people don't realize that Ward had a knee injury that he underwent during camp of the 1st fight, which greatly affected him. He battled through got a close decision and handled his business more definitively in the 2nd fight. His mentals are off the chart. I would pick him to beat Bellew and most of the CW. Usyk would be a different animal though. AJ wouild be a cashout fight because I can't see him making 12 rounds giving up 40-50lbs.

                I don't think Horn would fight the top WW the same way that he fought Pacman. Part of his unpredictability was based on the fact that he was significantly bigger than Pac and could rough him up. Would he try to or even be able to rough up a Porter or Thurman the same way? I doubt it. He may not be easy, but everyone isn't chomping at the bit to fight him because they view him as some stellar fighter.

                Errol Spence will be top 10 P4P in a year and a half... He only needs the other WW's to step up and take the fight. Funny how DSG was calling out Horn after he won the belt, but he didn't call out Spence after he won his from Brook...

                  A great mailbag, as usual. Well done, Breadman.

                    I agree with Breadman on most of what he said except Horn beats any of the top WWs. I think Spence, Thurman, Porter, even Garcia would beat him. Horn's awkward movement was a bad match up. Pacquiao is not good when it comes to boxing and thinking. You saw how confused he was with Mayweather because he never know when the attack was coming. This time he just didn't know from which angle.
