Next Generation of Stars?

[sunny31]

Broner is an amazing fighter, so is Ward. I don't think either of them is in the same league as a Roy Jones or Mayweather. But they are the best out of the guys on the way through.

Ward is an incredible fighter, he just won't ever sell to the general public. Boxing will always make great fights, but we need some ppv draws.

Yeah I think the sport may have a rough couple of years. We need Broner to do business against the best at 140 and a guy like GGG to actually be the goods once he steps up. And Canelo...I think the kid is a punk, but if he turns out to be talented he may carry the sport for a few years. So basically I'm banking on a few things happening that I think are highly unlikely...Broner will delay moving up, GGG will turn into another King Arthur and Canelo will be a bum...(grumble, grumble...)

The sport? The fans too and I think the negatives outweigh the positives. Thanks for reminding me of Canelo, I forgot to list him as a disgraceful cherrypicker.

I really wanted to at the very least get a HW or LHW in there. Wouldve added Rios but guys like him dont usually go for long. Takes too many licks.

[New England]

he beats a blown up WW in what's probably his last fight and all of a sudden he's "leading the next generation of stars?"


it was a very good win, but let's not break out the anointing oil just yet.
