Comments Thread For: Daily Bread Mailbag: Wilder, Ortiz, Roy Jones, Eubank, Canelo

Another great mailbag from the sage of the boxing game.

I'm a believer that the sum of Wilder's parts makes him the best heavyweight in the game.

His athleticism, stamina, insane power, and now chin make him capable of cleaning out the division.

I think Ortiz was the best fighter in the HW division over the past 3 years and would've beaten Klitchko, Fury, Joshua, Wilder, or Parker if he had faced them in 2015, but he's just too old now and Wilder knocking him out is still a great victory because he's a southpaw with power and skills, that would've given anybody fits.

Kovalev never stopped being Kovalev. Andre Ward was the pound for pound king. There's no shame in losing to the P4P king in 2 heavily controversial fights.

Bivol is looking like the real deal, but we have to remember too that Sullivan Barrera is past his prime and is no longer capable of being at peak performance anymore

And Andre Direll is done. Andre Direll has been done. He didn't want to fight in the last fight.

Hopefully, he retires before he hurts himself in the ring.

Another disappointing mailbag. Just way too much PBC propaganda coming from the trainer of a boxer advised by the head of PBC Al Haymon. Danny Garcia is a clean fighter? That must be how he took flush power shots from one of the biggest power punchers in boxing, Matthysse, who Garcia's own father accused of being on PEDs, without going down. That must be how he looked so much faster against Thurman than in his fights vs lower level opposition.

And "Wilder always does VADA"? Breadman acts like VADA can't be beaten, it can. But he always leaves that out whenever Wilder comes up! Almost as if there is a concerted effort from Team Haymon, of which Breadman is clearly a part of, to pull out all the stops to aid the reputation of what could be PBC's biggest star so long as their strategy works. There are hundreds of millions of dollars on the line for l Haymon here, and Breadman's boxer is advised by Haymon, but fans are supposed to believe there's no conflict of interest with this "objective" mailbag. Plus there is a big push now for all the belt organizations to implement year long VADA testing, not because they care about cleaning the sport up, but because they want to be able to control who gets to juice and who doesn't, so what better way to get public support behind implementing year long VADA testing for everyone than to have Breadman write that 80% of top boxers are on PEDS?

Not that I disagree, of course, but you have to see the hustle that is going on here. Sometimes a lit bit of truth is spoken as a way to help the hustle, to help sell the lie. Breadman's mailbags used to be legit but recently I have noticed more and more su****ious things he says along those lines.
