Fulton fought scared ?

The reason why he got knocked out was because he abandoned the back foot,standing in mid-range shyt and it actually led to him winning a round ,landing his best shots BUT getting knocked the fukk out .

The way y’all slander nikkas because a fight ain’t go the way you expect is wack as hell .

The hell happened to this forum .

No, no, no..he was jabbing in and wouldn't committ to following up. Defensive was lacking more than I've ever seen it..I thought he was doing the Hopkins/Trinidad strategy but nah that wasn't it. Too little too late.

Exactly! I'll never underestimate Monster's boxing IQ again. The dude processes & reacts at an ELITE level. I'm talking Mayweather & Roy Jones level

Wow

I thought his team watched him get his hands wrapped when he wrapped them.

I'm from Philly but have to admit he was fighting scared as hell. Looked like he wanted no parts of closing the distance and was getting picked apart from the outside despite everyone considering him the better boxer

In the beginning..he landed a few but was eating shots well..he then tried to move around and pot shot..he didn't have a deliberate game plan or mindset. Not fight fire with fire or even work a jab and move Sugar Ray Leonard technique.

this is why i always stress about seeing greatness in this generation in previous posts because even though fights are getting made we havent seen enough greatness individually

example - tank vs ryan was nothing but a cash grab to me...nothing about it screamed greatness for the type of attention it got...and i hated it off rip..still do...this monster-fulton was the opposite...it would have been nice if the fight was more competitive..but greatness has a way of causing separation if someone is really doing that..that is monster

Nah I think they should fight mma fighters right after stalling a fighter to a shytty deal. They should also have a rematch clause with the MMA fighter after bytching about rematch clauses with the clear rival. Thats greatness

The same channels that were calling Bud "Top Rank Toby"? I got just as much smoke for them as the anti-Black channels that dog whistle

lol didnt catch that one but sheesh thats what im saying its street corner talk with 30 views.. Crawford resigning with top rank was worthy of all the criticism and the reason people sleep on him now

Against another Donaire-type. Someone with power. Tapales is decent but I see him getting KO'd within 5

Donaire don't have power ?

That Ramirez Chica??

Donaire don't have power ?

I think he meant donaire has power and he wants to see him fight another one like him since it was a tough fight. Thing is he was undisputed in the lower division. Completely cleaned it out. I don't see anyone that beats him here. Brandon Figueroa may give some issues but he susceptible to bodyshots. Idk what weight is his ceiling he 30 so idk

Also Crawford let Arum talk him like a dog with mansion money loss line. Crawford was quiet as a mouse. Spence, Wilder, Claressa Shields isn't letting nobody spit on their name like that.

Fulton will be back. Although Inoue's punching power is outright phenomenal and it was a one-sided stoppage, this wasn't necessarily a health-changing fight for Fulton. It was more like he got out-pointed and rocked.

Additionally, this ain't even 5 years ago: elite fighters are back to fighting elite fighters so people aren't having perfect records anymore.

Plus dude can go up in weight, I can actually see him get into the 130-135 mix.

I like how there's no "toxic" loss culture around this fight either. Nobody calling dude trash rather they're just more shocked by how good Inoue is.

Again, no shame in losing to Inoue. It takes a lot of heart to go over the ocean and fight someone like that. If anything this gave dude a big chance to make a notable name for himself.

Dude is still an elite boxer at the end of the day that'd give 95% of other fighters trouble.
