"Also look at Pacquiao vs everybody in his prime. It took rounds to figure out what you were looking at. It took Marquez 42 rounds to finally clip him and Marquez is an all timer."

true it took marquez 42 rounds to clip him but marquez had manny figured out after the first half of their first fight. pacquiao never duplicated the success of that first round. marquez downloaded that style quickly and became pacquiaos kryptonite.

Question: Now, after seeing a "Prime Peaking Starfighter Cashcow", Canelo, losing against the "Aging Past-Prime Hey Max GGG from Kazakstan", do you think if they fought peak vs peak Canelo would stand a chance? Golovkin looked softer, less sharp and a bit slower. What about a 2013/14/15 version of him?

golovkin being washed up is total horse sht. line up wade, rubio, monroe, rosado and stevens again and watch him look like the boogeyman overnight. its the QUALITY of competition that has ggg looking like that. the fight could've happened in 13,14 and 15 but ggg refused to meet canelo at 155lbs. he chose to sit still and wait therefore thats what happened. I've never seen a more entitled B side behave like ggg does. "I'll go to 154 for floyd but not 155 for canelo". FOH. he is the sole reason the canelo fight didn't happen sooner. period.


At the end of the day, Ward is unbeaten. 2-0 against Kov. Retired undefeated. The other one got his aura destroyed, lost his titles and now every young hungry Lion at LHW is after him.

what "young hungry lion" at 175 is "after" kovalev? enlighten me on that. and this person needs to get over the butt hurt of ward beating sergio. its pathetic now. the mofo QUIT. period. he sat his ass on the ropes and didnt have one objection to the stoppage. ward put that heat on him and the guy was looking for a way out. his constant btchin and moaning to the ref after threatening to end wards career was a sorry sight. the bully was simply dominated. he couldn't deal with the fact that when he looked in ward's eyes he saw no fear. that mentally shattered him. and the ref stopped it because kovalev had given numerous signs he didn't want to be in the ring anymore. embrace that damn L.

And thats why they fight! Im sure he has not gotten every fight right. Neother has any of the EXPERTS.

What confuses me the most is he said most betters are taking Hurd over Lara??? I dont get that one??? Usually experts take skills over head hunting stalkers??? To me Lara should he able to set traps up all night on him...Lara by UD

He said most of the big betters he knows are taking Hurd. I haven't been able to find the odds yet, but I think Lara has to be the betting favorite overall.

You notice he didnt say who he thought would win??? I think he favors Lara but someone has him re thinking it.
