yea I saw the Usyk fight and the Ustinov fight

never seen Ajagba, but I have read a couple articles on him

back in Klitschko's day, there was a gap between him and the next best Povetkin, and a gap between Povetkin and the rest..... which is kinda how I see it now

Wilder/Fury/Joshua > the rest

to me, it boils down to " betsy ", and how well Joshua can take it

Wilder has floored every single opponent he faced..... and like you said, Fury is more skilled than Joshua

in those 12 rounds, is Wilder likely to land betsy ?

I say yes, the most likely scenario is that Wilder will land betsy at some point in that fight

I am not sure if Joshua is as tough/resilient as Fury either

he could be

I agree that Joshua is more powerful than Fury..... but Joshua is vulnerable to being outboxed by Fury and floored by Wilder

and Joshua is not hiding behind Hearn, he is instructing him

Watch Iago Kiladze vs. Michael Hunter, and make sure to watch Ajagba vs. Mansour on the Porter vs. Ugas undercard on Match 9th!

Good call on Toney v Barkley. Toney’s performance ranks up there in my mind as one of the examples of near perfection I have ever seen in my life in any field.

Really? Wow! I don't know. He's already 28. I think the difference between Canelo and GGG is that Canelo has faced so many styles, that his game kept improving, while GGG remained stagnant. He might not remain champion, but I think Canelo has at least 8 more elite level fights in him! Now because he's made so much money, he might just bounce at 30 as you suggest!

The difference between Canelo and GGG is their age...GGG had more than 300 amateur fights. I am sure he also faced different styles

As GGG's level of competition went up, his level of performance went down! Fighting different styles for 3 rounds with headgear, is not the same as fighting different styles at the professional levels! Canelo's resume in the pros is way better than GGG's!

I've always thought the Judah was an impressive fight for Mayweather but I wasn't as impressed as Bread.

I agree with Corrales but I also liked the Cotto fight. Cotto was a little shot but he was game that night. Mayweather was so in control (even though he didn't look like it early), he was trying out new things in his offense.

I think Mayweather is one of the best in-fight, adjusting (come up with an offense on the fly) boxer I've ever seen.

i liked the judah fight also. imo mayweather was on his way to KO judah and if it wasnt for the round 10 theatrics he would have. after a slow start mayweather started to walk judah down in that fight, he was walking to him with a high guard and picking him off.

i went to the cotto fight, cotto really brought it to mayeather that fight. was a good one.
