You're making Mikey seem unimpressive when its just the opposite. He looks better every fight he has, and we've never seen him fight any 'slick black fighters' so how would you come to this conclusion?
Put him in against slick boxing Gary Russell, Jr. :lolbron:
Oh wait, I forgot GRJ doesn't fight anyone. :bryan:

The one question I have is how much is Garcia vs Donaire. Garcia has his brother Mikey with pretty incredible boxing skills and Donaire is looking straight :flabbynsick: with his boxing skills right now. A change could be good. Wonder if going to someone like Roach and just maximizing your offensive potential and put the boxing skills on the backburner.
It's not Robert Garcia, it his father that has Mikey performing at an elite level...... before then, Mikey was basic as well. The right guy isn't getting the credit here.

Donaire has always relied on his superior athletic and physical abilities, going with Roach is honestly a great choice, he's not going to be transformed into something he's never been.

@Big Boss @SuikodenII hearing that WBA are going to make GGG the "super" champ.

thats most probably why murray isnt fighting him as he will get promoted to the "regular" champ

WBA need to stop fukking adding multiple world champs man, they are making big fights not happen
At 168...

Unified World Champ- Carl Froch
Super World Champ- Andre Ward
World Champ- Vacant
Interim Champ- Stanyslav Kashtanov

The WBA are trying to keep everything in-house, including "unification" bouts....... boxing has really gotten that strange :snoop: :mindblown:


Obtaining a belt at a division is great, it really is, but it should only serve as a launch pad towards better competition because let's be honest... being a defending champion is not that impressive if who you're facing are unknown and undeserved fighters. Thing is, unless you're a mega star most people won't recognize you nor give you a second look if you're not a "champion". That word holds prestige, and with prestige comes a bargaining chip to face better fighters or simply get more lucrative offers.

This is the result of no national commission to regulate these sanctioning bodies. Years from now, it will get a LOT worse.....

last night those fights were pretty good. andrade looked good, but he looks like he keeps his legs too wide-
He is in that wide stance because he always has that back foot cocked and ready to get the fukk out of dodge immediately. He needs to work on that because he won't be able to get as much power on his shots if he is always in flight mode.
