    But he did take the easier fight, by picking Ali instead of a top 154 opponent

      Haha Got news for ya, bro...you were the easier fight. Lmao This one backfired. Good performance, though. Surprised a lot of people, including me.

        Respect to Sadam Ali. This was by far and away his best performance. He did not look this good against Vargas. People forget that there was a long ring layoff for Sadam who was waiting for his title shot versus Bradley.

        Ali took full advantage of the circumstances and made the boxing world and fans eat crow last night.

        From here I think Sadam will either fight Liam Smith next at 154 or bring Golden Boy will try to get a Welterweight to move up and fight him next.

          I don't know if 154 is where Sadam Ali wants to be. I can't see him beating Lara, Charlo, or Hurd! Kell Brook should go straight for his title! Ali vs. Brook! Make it happen!

            Why would Ali fight a guy coming from 2 loses?

            Brook is pretty much done. Only Khan fight makes sense for him.

              Because Kell Brook sells in the UK! Why would Ali fight Lara, who doesn't sell, and is 5 times better than a 37-yr old Cotto, when he could fight a guy that does sell, and is coming off 2 losses? Besides, Oscar could probably make a fight easier with Hearn, than with Al Haymon!

                Just proves that Cotto wasnt anything special. Blame age or whatever you want, just never a top tier fighter, he lost the big fights. Glad he lost this one

                  This was the EASIEST fight Cotto could get HBO to agree to...

                    Tell Lara and Charlo not to duck Sadam "I get my power from Allah" Ali...

                      You won't have to worry about that because GBP (Sadam Ali) won't pursue a fight with either one! You know Oscar don't **** with Haymon! This is a good thing for Ali! I don't even think Ali could beat Erickson Lubin! I really hope we see Sadam Ali vs. Nathaniel Gallimore next! WAR GALLIMORE!
