    All Hate aside and “asterisks” this, Canelo vs GGG was great for boxing!

    Unlike all the GGg diehards always crying about “asterisks” with Canelo, these two gave us some badass fights!

      Those fights were violence of the absolute highest level. They were really f ucking good. Some of my favorite fights of recent years tbh, taking controversy aside.

      For reference, there’s probably only Spence vs Crawford that can maybe match the pure skill of both guys while maintaining similar ferocity. Though, I’m not sure it’ll be as savage (due to the unusual chins of GGG and Canelo), that’s kind of what we expect.

      Inoue-Donaire was savage as well, despite Donaire’s age.

      Taylor-Ramirez is going to deliver, though I’m not sure Ramirez is on that level but I hope we’re proven wrong.

        Yeah the 12th round of the rematch was 2 fighters putting everything on the line. 2 historic fights

          Taylor vs Prograis, on a lower level but that was a great fight too. Taylor vs Ramirez needs to happen asap. The winner gets Crawford.

              Taylor/Prograis was that fight at 140 IMO. Taylor/Ramirez likely to disappoint.

                Can’t argue with that.

                I favored Prograis in that fight actually. I’m a big fan of his and Taylor as well. Huge win for Taylor.

                Ramirez might just be one of those guys though that just finds a way to win. I like his chances vs Taylor more than I would vs Prograis tbh...though thats probably the bias speaking

                  Overrated and overhyped because of the names behind both fights. They were average at best.

                    Evenly matched, good fights. Can’t really go wrong there.
