At the moment he is without a doubt #1 but the middlweight division is packet, everyone in the top 10 other than Lemieux posses a threat to GolovkinGGG 5/1 favorite over Saunders. GGG 1.8/1 favorite over Canelo. GGG 3/1 favorite over Jacobs. The professional odds makers know GGG is still the best middleweight in the world even if the GGG haters on here wish so desperately that he wasn't. GGG will probably remain undefeated for a few more years. Get used to it.

I was thinking the same, I thought Joshua would be a favorite but not 25/1, maybe 9/1AJ looked so beatable in his last fight that he shouldn't be a 25/1 favorite to beat Parker who is better than Takam. AJ only averages about 25 punches a round. Parker averages about 60 punches a round and has never been knocked down. He has more than one chance out of 25 to win.Comment

DeGale vs Eubank Jr looks about right to me until Eubank Jr proves himself a little more at least. If he wins the WBSS then I expect they will close. I see improvement in Eubank Jr but Abraham & Yildirim couldn't be anymore made for him.
AJ/Parker is about right also I feel. I don't give Parker much of a shot either, a second tier guy that losses in a rather big way to any of the true top HWs (AJ, Wilder, Povetkin, Ortiz).
I am really not convinced he'd even beat a Pulev type.
To me he is at or around the same level as Takam, he edged him but I feel Parker is stylistically an easier out than Takam for AJ.Comment

No he didn't. Manny's contract was up and Arum has done this before. Lose the belt, resign, big arena. Venue has zero to do with fixing judges. They weren't hometown judges either. New York, Arizona, and Argentina.Comment

You're probably right, but doesn't change the fact that Horn didn't clearly win 7 rounds, and in a close fight the champ should keep his belt, look I had the fight either 7-5 or 6-6 in Manny's favor, I scored the ninth 10-8 because Horn was hurt, but I could see how Horn won but not 9-3 like the judges called it, it was close enough for the champ to keep his beltComment

No he shouldn't.

You can't score a 10-8 without a knockdown. Horn won a close fight and champs don't win when its close if they lost.Last edited by McNulty; 11-20-2017, 12:38 PM.Comment
