    Kovalev vs Canelo was two weeks after Gvozdyk got sparked while Kovalev still had a belt. TBRB hadn’t updated their lists...

      Well, **** him bud. I'll say something positive about the poles

      Y'all have probably the most underrated food in europe. Delicious, thanks for the recipes.

Mma fighter especially ufc fighters need better compesantion yet hopefully a network follows there mo buys out 3 or 4 promotions n make the fights ppl want to see more often similar how to ufc does which is another reason its surpased boxing since in the usa canada n well brasil the 2bd largest country in americas 200m people (france uk germany combined population) was never big on boxing n mma exploited that which another reason surpased in the americas. If only dazn aired on television n added pbc to the roster thatd be realistically closest thing to a ufc boxing would have. Growing the sport also making less cherry picked matches. Since theyre already hearn n dlh with friendly terms with warran. Bob arum n tr is the bellator of boxing truthfully its 2nd tier horrible promotion of fighters except that fighter 1 loma similar to how bellator only promotes mvp.You rarely know when fights happening and there depth is super thin. So truthfully if my idea happend missing out on crawford and loma wouldnt hurt the boxing world itd be like how we in mma want to see lamas from bellator vs masdival usman. Or mvp vs anyone legit top 10 in ufc yet we aint dying we missing those fights cause 7/10 times we still getting good fights in the ufc alone. Unlike boxing no big fights ever on public tv rarely get to see the fights want to see on time especislly from the so called champions .
          Canelo's resume takes a big, steaming crap on Golovkin's. They're not even close.

              Caleb Plant is fighting Truax on 7 weeks notice. He has no problem with that for some reason.

                GGG diehards didn’t like Breadman’s latest mailbag. Said GGg fell short to really convince the judges with swing rounds. It’s because Breadman’s getting tired of mailbag questions to hype GGG and downplay Canelo.

                Little by little Breadman is becoming a true player. He was really impressed with the Smith win.

                  That's somehow true, but Polish food is not the healthiest, unfortunately. Some specialities are superb in the taste though.

                    Because that’s the same thing.


                    Why can’t canelo give guys a full camp? Why does every opponent need to have an asterisk? Why do you guys make excuses for him?

                      He is very well managed guy fighting guys that are getting old, past their prime or looked awful in last fight.

                      But he is nothing like Mayweather. Mayweather fought past prime guys, but names only, when he reached top level.

                      I can`t imagine Mayweather fighting somebody like Fielding or this Turkish guy. Mayweather would rather eat his belt than fight somebody like that.

                      Canelo is only better managed Mexican GGG. His "resume" is full of gifts.
