aint nothing fraud about Warrington. Dude resume legit and he an overachiever. Perfect opponent for Shakur and his coasting ass decisions. We need someone that is gonna make that kid fight and test his grit. Josh will definitely bring it. I'm not even sure who to pick in that one.

exactly...cats on here went crazy on lsc barely beating dude..warrington told him his ass was grass and proceeded to demonstrate as such..he made frampton look overrated...got my respect for that esp after damn getting a FOTY candidate out of lee selby

I cosign this. Im kinda intrigued by him vs Benavidez tho. I could see Benavidez being with the shyts and bringing it or shrinking in the moment

Word
Benavidez fight is tricky cuz I feel like he'll carry Canelo fast if he's able to cut off the ring or stay in front of him long enough to launch them volleys. I feel like Canelo might be the mover in that fight like he was in GGG 1. Ben plods, but he keeps stepping to you so you either gotta turn him or push him back. Canelo don't let his hands go enough to push you back for 12 rds so he'll prolly try to box and turn dude. Canelo will prolly start out good, but will burn out and crawl to the finish line. If nikkas thought GGG had a epic late rally for the rematch, the one Ben will have against a tired Canelo will be even worse. He might just get the stoppage like Chico/Freitas or Margarito/Cotto.

If not, the plot armor will kick in like every other Canelo fight. :manny:

Facts
Warrington is the worst match up for pure boxers. He beat Framps and Selby like they owed him money. His punch accuracy is underrated as well. Usually swarmers are a bit rougher, well at least in this era. He's not even a big puncher, but everyone leaves his fights all beat up and run over.

For the style he implements he actually has a good jab and quick hands. Those two things pretty much won him the Galahad fight since dude was trying his best to be a great value billy dib.

galahad was trying his best...low key that was a blueprint to stifle warrington...he looked very regular in that fight
Yeah he made a mistake though, he was so busy trying to neutralize Warrington’s offense that he ended up neutralizing himsel too and Warrington still outworked him

Not at all.....Difference between Floyd and the rest of these nikkas, Floyd was a pretty boy(didnt like to be touched in the face); but if you watch the tape 75% of that shyt was highly educated brawling, people see the savant that floyd the counter boxer is, the truth is he likes to mix it up more than he gets credit for, a true dog on the low....I saw Floyd as a boxer puncher who buzzed his opponents an forced them to fight a tactical fight.......Floyds only fight on the move was Castillo 2,m Oscar, Baldomir.........Floyd from Mosley on brawled in every damn fight on the low, and thats excluding them lower weights when he moved his hands even more......

In a dog fight when I look in Haneys face I dont believe he'd fight someone off him when met with equal resistance, he could barely get guys out with no resistance in front him.....these young guys have 1 level, ......Floyd Manny, Oscar, Shane, had levels for days.....
Agree with everything up til the last paragraph

Haney hasnt been challenged. When he is you'll see the levels to his game. Same w young mak

Only thing dikkriding is you and your mids dealer :hhh:

You can tell as you say "when you put on the tape" that Haney and Shakur are different. Maybe if you smoked some of this realness, you'd get it :hhh:

Still my homie tho

Smoke and mirrors?
Like Canelo but I have never seen anything like this. So Canelo goes up to 175 and KO’s Sergey Kovalev.

From Canelo’s man fan’s and his management’s perspective the fight wasn’t at all fixed and Sergey was as good as he ever was.

It has even been stated by Golden Boy Sergey was the best fighter at 175?

Yet some how the Man fan’s and Team Canelo don’t believe he needs to fight the other best fighters at any weight class from 160 - 175.

I think we have seen enough smoke and mirrors in his career to know something isn’t right here.

Golden boy is shady and I don’t put the fight fix out of the realm of possibility.

They have done everything else including having the WBC label him a Franchise champion and increase the limits of clenbuterol allowed in ones system.

They are puppeting the sport and there should be asterisks all over Canelo’s career. It’s a shame because the guy can fight.
