I’m indifferent on , he’s an accomplished fighter who was handled well during his career.

Im just not keen on how never admits when he’s wrong for the most part. I’ve said it before and agree with him about Mikey potentially being done or taking a hiatus.. He’s already got a hall of resume and cashed out with the Spence fight. I don’t know, he just strikes me as a guy who doesn’t wanna fight forever and growing up in a boxing family , I'm sure he wouldn’t mind some time away again.

Now Robert said he'd prefer Mikey to go 140 but there are fights for him at 147. I don't see it that way. There are fight for him at 147 if he is satisfied being a B tier fighter in a division. In 140 he actually has a chance of beating the top guys if he hasn't damaged goods in the Spence fight. If last Saturday wasn't a clear message for the Garcias that 147 is a bridge too far for him idk what would be it.

I just can’t properly gauge How Garcia fairs at 147 with the schooling Spence gave him...

Like coming in I was fairly confident he might beat Danny, who’s basically top of the 2nd tier at this point, just didn’t to activity alone ...but now I’m not so sure of that .

I never understood the hate toward Bradley.
One of the most stand up guys in all boxing, had a lot of heart too.
Guess it's a mixture of his not fan friendly style and the decision he got against Pacquiao.

i HATED how he fought...between using his head and flailing his punches....his fights were eyesores ...and this is before the pacquiao fights..its amazing that he had the career he did

Yea you can. If your Mikey there’s no way you fight at 147 again unless you have literally every advtadge. Oh you can take a punch at 147? Cool but don’t throw punches back? Stay at 140 or the fukk below

The welterweight division is so top heavy with probably 3 guys who could be p4p top 10 but it feels so with the match ups. Pat was right at least MW are facing each other other than blow job saunders

It really seems like ward don't fukk with wilder .......wanna see ward follow through on that heavyweight comeback. Just one fight. Ward vs wilder. I'm telling you ward would box the shyt out of him

He's usually taking low money and high risk''

What can I say... he was ctafty and tough as shyt. He could box well too when he wanted to, eg. how he outpointed JMM

160 is very good now
so is 115, 118 and 175

147 is good too as far as depth and talent but yeah, they could fight each other a bit more often
I doN't think it's abysmal though cause we got some top vs top fights in 147 too

GRJ doesn't need to have a belt if he's only going to fight once a year and fight fukking Kiko Martinez. How does Showtime even pay for that nonsense? If I'm Espinoza i'm telling Al to take that shyt to Bounce Network.

When you're struggling with Josesito Lopez in your comeback nobody cares about that anymore and imo rightfully so. Thurman has to show signs that he is back to his old self before I start to rate him according to his pre-inactivity form.

idk bruh. He had a bad round or two (one verrry bad round if i'm being honest) and another toss up round, but he was in complete control of that scrap....as he should have been. Give em Pac Man, i dont care for a Porter rematch

 

[The axe murderer]

Are there more fighters nowadays like spence and Whyte who have a long reach yet work the body very well?
