Originally posted by 1hourRun View PostIts the best win no doubt.... but how do top a guy that's been actively climbing weights fighting top competition winning lineal and beating top #1-#2. in his division? since 2008. Ward is going on his third weight ( second one that he might become world champion ) Kovalev has been @175 all his career and only started fighting the best three years ago ; both guys are older and Kovalev is just taking on someone who is a real threat to his reign at 33 and when was the last time anyone of these guys fought a lineal champion? because Stevenson is still THE MAN ( right I know Ward became lineal but its not the same -- he establish a new linage)....now Ward has been inactive, his last meaningful fight was 2012!!!. Ward-Kovalev winner is a better look for the casuals every-time Gonzalez is mention they talk about his size....you know its just public perception when you really weigh things as if you never seen these guys in your life and look at the accomplishments its clear who the P4P really is.
But ugh....WAR S.O.G America rules supreme.
I say because Ward cleared out all top level competition at 160...but Gonzalez has essentially done the same at his weight...
I guess the heavier weights get more merit....
Maybe people hold higher weight comp to a higher standard compared to getting down below the 120s...

Originally posted by frantic fighter View PostDid you see his face after the fight? Did you hear him say that he started to think about his families well-being? Dude was whipped, and we should have to give him any passes just because he's a lil fella, with great rankings come great expectations, and he did not deliver.

Edit: the lower weights are held to a higher standards in reality.

I think Gonzalez definitely deserves the recognition he's been getting...regardless of weight....

Originally posted by i got the keys View PostI feel you, but that just shows that he faces a really tough opponent and he had to grind it out. That should hold face value. Is more speaks to how good his opponent was....

Originally posted by frantic fighter View PostI'm not saying that Caudras isn't a very good fighter,but the fact remains that he wasn't number one in his division,much less a top ten p4p caliber fighter. Most people reasonably expect to see dominance from the best fighter in the world and that isn't what we were able to see. You could even argue that he deserved to lose.
