I'm tired of everyone making excuses for all these fighters sitting around at 160-168. If your name isn't Caleb Plant, go and make a meaningful fight so that you can actually be next up.

Instead we gotta watch Andrade fight the likes of Liam Williams or Charlo fight Montiel. You wanna talk about bad for boxing, how about these guys, who could've easily become prime attractions in boxing, not doing shyt for a majority of their careers.

Then folks wanna act like it's Canelo's fault they ain't popping. shyt is pitiful man. Canelo fought 3 times in six months, and is slated to fight Plant in September. That's 3 undefeated world champions in a 10 month period!! He's doing shyt in 10 months that these other dudes won't do in their careers.

shyt is pitiful.
Comical that mfs wait with their hands out and mouth open like a baby bird for that paycheck but no doing a damn thing to advance their legacy :hhh:
Closest thing they get to fighting each other is twitter spats :hhh:

Can’t go about trying to get a Canelo fight the way Lara did YEARS ago. That Canelo needed something to prove and rebuild himself following that Floyd loss. This Canelo is made. Boo Boo gotta go about it like a fukking professional and businessman. Be willing to do a 90/10 split type shyt. Have your damn locker room in the damn parking lot. Basically give Canelo w/e the fukk he want to make the fight.
Funny thing is at that point lara arguably had a better resume than these guys. Beat trout and arguably should have won against paul williams. He was a dangerous fight for a good reason

if you don't :camby: da fuk outa here with that triangle theory goofball bullshyt... Spence will end up exactly how Khan ended up if he ever steps in the ring with Canelo... its a stupid fight.. Spence could barely get passed Shawn Porter.. Je has nothing for Canelo.........NOTHING....:mjlol: at you believing lateral movement is the blueprint to beating Canelo... Spence not even beating any of Canelo opponents past 160
Spence would beat Triple G now not the one from 2017-18.

So how does Canelo's opponents rank in terms of difficulty in his post GGG career? I think it's something like this

1 - Jacobs
2 - Kovalev
3 - BJS
4 - Smith
5 - Yildirim
6 - Fielding

Jacobs and Kovalev could be the most competitive, but Kovalev was mostly just coasting then got brutally stopped, Jacobs actually made it competitive. BJS was game but losing on the cards then immediately retired once his eye been busted. Smith wasn't competitive at all maybe won 1-2 rounds top but hasn't been knocked out like Yildirim and Fielding who were really just filler fights for Canelo. Don't even feel right to say one did better than the other but let's say Yildirim did a bit better, cause he wasn't floored left and right in the first 2 rounds like Fielding.
I think I agree but I’d swap Yildirm and Fielding

Canelo really out here handing out life-altering beatdowns :picard:

Between the face-breaking uppercut last night and the liver shot to Liam Smith that KO'd him and had him writhing in agony on the canvas, the violence this man unleashes against the Brits is :wow:

Caleb Plant watching and wondering if it's not too early to go home and be a family man :bryan:
Reading all the comments from the UK fans leading up to this fight they really hate canelo for the beatings he's put on their fighters. And they really believed saunders was the one to do the job. And he ended up worse off than the rest. Canelo shattered that man's face:damn:......canelo really the Boogeyman to these eurocacs:sadcam:

It's fukk Eddie Hearn all day but if Andrade is willing to cross to Fox and calling out unification with GGG, how much more can he do outside of going to PBC?

IMO, Kovalev cant be #2, he wanted no parts ofthat fight and was just pumping the jab to pump up his punch count. There was 0 power and 0 will behind his punches.

I mean... it's true but still had an argument for winning by controlling most of the fight when he got stopped, I felt he was more active than BJS yesterday, threw almost only pitter-patter shyt but BJS wasn't really landing power shots either. He landed a few and that's that. I think BJS had less of a case of winning the fight than Kovalev when the fight got stopped.

What I’ve learnt in that fight is Canelo all round is a monster - an elite boxer puncher. But he is beatable you just have to be elite at either of those attributes or as good in both, but he is so good now, he is becoming a rare breed. Elite boxer like Mayweather and an elite puncher like GGG gave him trouble. But after that, who else? Only person who is as well rounded as him in my opinion is Spence. But weight wise it won’t work. Otherwise Beterbiev is his hardest challenge. Canelo would have to box circles around him. Charlo is also interesting but Canelo will likely outbox.
Spence is too flat footed to trouble canelo. Squares himself up too much. Dude was getting legit rattled by Danny Garcia and was reluctant to trade with him late in the fight. Never seen Spence get gun shy like that. He was feeling Danny's shots. Just imagine when canelo lands on him. Spence doesn't have the speed or the defense to give canelo any problems. Only little guy who could pose a threat would be Crawford.
