    Was Smith not the consensus #1 in the division?

      this is a job and career...and if you do it right and make money you only have to really work for 12-15 years....its hard for me to fathom there are guys who put on a ton of weight and stay out of a gym for extended periods.....i mean...i do get it...were not exactly dealing with highly educated folks with solid upbringings.....but
      Don't be so surprised. It happens in many sports where an athlete gets the fundamentals down so much that they begin to really only on the fundamentals and not on athleticism. There is supposed to be a perfect balance imo.

      If you are an NBA fan, Carmelo was a perfect example of this. A guy with all the fundamental skills so that he is able to make the game easy, finding himself out of shape and unable to play effectively the older he got.

      James Toney is another example... mastered the fundamentals and then said, "fuck staying in shape.."

        An athlete that has both mastered the fundamentals of his sport and is extremely athletic is what we usually call, "a generational talent.."


        Most athletic people thinks that's what will save them, while most fundamental first athletes feels their fundamental mastery is their god send.

          as i said previously...these guys think that canelo literally picks a guy 3 weeks out and that guy has no real idea he has a chance to fight canelo lolol

          like 4 weeks before canelo just picks a random name out of a hat ....these guys know well before a fight is officially announced theyll likely be fighting canelo.....these guys act like canelo literally gives them a last minute notice ...its absurd

                  GREAT FIGHT! Another fight that can be a HUGE FIGHT! Benavidez screwed himself losing that WBC Belt on the scale though so he is going to have to find a way to get back

                    Well except he didn’t, and he was legitimately ranked #1 in the division.

                      Exactly fighters should know Canelo is chasing belts so its pretty obvious what they should do.

                      Instead of fighting each other they just hope and pray Canelo calls them out..
