I don't trust this dude. He's managed to weasle out of a few big fights now. One of which being canelo's move up fight to 160. I think he suffers from anxiety or some other mental shyt. He just can't seem to keep it together for long. That's why I know he can't beat canelo. He's gonna fold once shyt gets real.

This boxing shyt gotta be the most stressful profession in the world. That's why a lot of em end up fukked up late in life. Not even just from punches to the head but also all that stress they go through. They prolly never get a good night sleep. Imagine getting knocked out in front the whole world. That's what turned Jermaine Taylor crazy. It takes a different type of person to be an all time great fighter.
Nah I don't believe that, he says if he misses out on canelo he'll fight Andrade. He just want a fair camp which is what he deserves working hard for 20 something years

He backed out of that Andrade fight in the past too. His word don't mean much anymore. Even if the fight is signed I won't trust it til I see Billy Joe get in the ring.
Nah Massachusetts didn't license the fight due to the nasal spray, I don't think Billy wanted it at the time but he didn't outwardly duck I don't agree with that. I think he fights Andrade if canelo doesn't give him a fair camp, theirs money to be made we will see:yeshrug:

He already knows he's fighting canelo as long as he keeps that belt. Everytime he goes to the gym he should already have canelo in mind. If him and his team aren't already game planning for canelo it's their own fault:yeshrug:



I think he's gonna hold out or try to fight another but if he doesn't fight canelo in May. He's not risking a canelo payday by fighting Andrade. Even though I think he can beat Andrade at his best I still don't think he's gonna risk it. But if he does I'll eat crow :manny:

I'm still disgusted by Callum Smith and by the way DJ, Kov, and Callum fought against Canelo, yall needa put respect on GGG for staying in the mud vs Canelo and be willing to go life and death twice


but but but GGG was afraid to go to Canelo's body. :mjlol:

Yeah shyt sound stupid now when you got nikkas in their prime afraid to even walk towards Canelo let alone commit to his body. :hhh:

Even though golovkin showed more heart than these guys he still let canelo walk him down most of the fight. Even if he did make a final stand late. At the end of the day canelo made all of these guys look timid:yeshrug:.....But I felt Callum actually redeemed himself somewhat in the later rounds. He started standing his ground and fighting back. Most guys would have quit from the beating he was taking in those finals rounds. He's never gonna be the same from the punishment he took. I was actually shocked he made it to the final bell. That alone deserves crazy respect.

those fights were fix, Callum Smith has the record for most jabs thrown by a fighter at super middleweight, and didn't use his jab against a guy he had 10 inch reach advantage

Kovalev ain't throw one power punch, Danny Jacobs didn't even start boxing until the second half of the fight, everytime Canelo fight its some bullshyt going around or controversy, I'm only watching PBC, these other networks got too many agendas, Callum Smith went to the ropes willingly, ain't never use his height or size, nothing, I expected him to lose, but he didn't even try, that shyt was mad suspect

I hope Al Haymon make his own belt because the only sanction body that ain't on some bullshyt is the IBF, The WBC has ruined all the history and prestige with that franchise belt, which they gonna give Canelo at 168, even thought this was suppose be for the WBC belt Benavidez was stripped of, just so he won't have to fight benavidez, and they allow him to use clenbutoral and even raised the amount in your system that can be allowed to not fail a test, its digusting

I mean when counters come back at warp speed, it's hard to commit if you're not fast yourself. Plus, Canelo also is powerful which the worst combo to be against. Tall dudes got reach and leverage but unless you're arm punching you'll never be quick enough to pull back.

Only flaw Canelo still has is that he's still got slow footwork and good movers like Floyd and Lara will always cause him problems but you need to be smart with it. I don't think they deserve it but BJS or Andrade would really be interesting matchups.

Anyway, like you I still can't believe how timid Kov was with his jab smh. He was just touching with it even though he has an excellent jab. Smith might have had an excuse with his arm injury but I wouldnt place DJ in the same category because he did let his hands go and caught Nelo flush with legit bombs several times.

That left hook in the 1st round of their 2nd fight changed triple g's career. That was the unlocking of new Nelo.

Yea maybe but even then, he never buckled or hurt GGG (vice versa too). My overall point stands, he damn sure wasn't treating GGG like he's treated his last 3 opponents because he was getting shyt thrown back at him that kept em on guard.

But ima fallback, not tryina shoehorn GGG into the fight thread :hubie:
