Who gives a fck? I'd give prime Iron Mike a good shot at beating ANY Heavyweight in history (including Ali). Simply put, his physique, speed, reflexes, KO power and defence made him almost impossible to beat. In fact, it's only when he beat himself by slacking and partying in addition to his prison...
Yep...Morrell was a stellar amateur which is why his career's been fast-tracked in the pro's (just like an extremely talented soccer player get's promoted to the first team early). I think Smith is a VERY winnable fight for him and if Beterbiev retires and Bivol moves up, he's probably the next best...
I don't know about Dubois vs. Ruiz (battle of the AJ slayers?) or why Parker & Kabayel never demand title shots. However, what I DO know is that whenever I see your name I automatically think of the following:-
"Black Rob joined the mob, it ain't no replacin him
N step up,...
Honestly Yoka is such a garbage pro that I'd give him 0% chance of beating both Dubois & Kabayel and only a 30% chance of beating old washed up Joyce! ...
True but both Kabayel & Dubois would smash him to bits whereas Joyce is 50-50 as Yoka's THAT much of a bum that he might actually lose to this washed up version of Joe.
If I were Frank, I'd put him in with Joyce on the condition that the loser has to RETIRE....
I know but this one REALLY takes the biscuit...a draw and then the #9 p4p fighter in the world losing a SD on home soil despite scoring a knockdown (how the FCK did one judge score it 117-110 for Sandoval?)!
Honestly bro, don't they understand how seriously we take Pick 'Em over here? ...
Yeah but wouldn't it be nice to OFFICIALLY know who the #1 fighter is in each weight class (instead of having 4+ supposed champions)? The UFC model captures this perfectly and boxing used to only have one champion per division too back in the day. Therefore, if anybody should be accused of being greedy...
This...members make weekly predictions on select fights all year round and are awarded points for predicting the correct winner, method (decision/KO) & timing (narrow/wide & early/late). There's also a multiplier element (which I don't particularly like) where members can collect double or triple...
Yafai would be beyond retarded to accept a rematch with a known cheater who not only jeapordised his health but probably shaved a few years off his career too with that beatdown. Ditto for Haney-Garcia 2 although as a fan, I would be curious to see how both fights pan out without the influence of drugs....
100%...the best are FORCED to fight the best early because they all fight under the same organisation and losses don't mean anything. Also, being a multi-weight world champion actually means something as there's fewer weight classes (as does being a champion).
Not at all...having 4 champions per weight class (in addition to regular & interim champions) diminishes the meaning of the word 'champion' (just like YouTubers, influencers, reality TV stars etc have diminished the meaning of the word 'celebrity'). Also, in virtually ALL other sports there is only...
I for one believe the Chechen BEAST is being heavily avoided...nobody wants a piece of that. However, the 154lb division has some certified killers like Crawford, Murtaz, Ortiz & Boots who need to start fighting each other. Given that Murtaz & Crawford already have fights lined up, I'd like...
I for one would LOVE boxing to adopt the UFC model where the best fight the best early, losses don't matter and there's only ONE champion per weight class (with fewer weight classes too).
100%...he's LUCKY he fought for a vacant belt otherwise he'd never be world champion in a division with killers like Crawford, Murtaz, Ortiz, Boots and even Fundora & Madrimov. Very fortunate match-making....
