Essential The Official Boxing Random Thoughts Thread...All boxing heads ENTER.

[Jello Biafra]

some are saying hes a better fighter now than he was in the amateurs based on beating overmatched opponents. but overmatched opponents are there to make you look good thats why you cant base things on that

i have only seen one round of anthony joshua vs erislandy savon which was a fight most think joshua walked away from with a blatant gift. from what i saw thats accurate. lots of bad signs here showing up that you wont see against the guys handpicked for joshua to beat



http://www.boxingnews24.com/2012/08/savon-dominates-joshua-but-still-loses/




he was geting his head whacked with the jab repeatedly. chin in the air he doesnt move his head. but of course you dont see things like that get exposed against overmatched opponents

I honestly don't get why you are so extra critical of a guy who has not had 10 fights yet. it makes no sense.
A few of us have said he has potential but nobody has placed Joshua on a pedestal at all or think he should be getting title shots based off the level of comp he has beaten.
Very few fighters make the step-up this early in their careers so your digging through his amateur career and harping on who he has beaten to prove a point about his lack of defense is just mind-boggling to me.

An advisor's job is to offer his opinion and try to help guide a fighter's career...an advisor is not supposed to have the final say in what you can or can't do.
Wonder is this is the same contract Floyd is under?
Would call into question all of that "I am my own boss" bullshyt he likes to throw out all the time to criticize Pacquiao.

what kinda bullshyt is this? it seems like these fighters are so eager to get paid that they are signing those contracts without looking at the fine print or musing on any possible cons to this

i dont know brehs but it doesnt seem 100% legal for an advisor to do this. i know al has been a manager/advisor for years, but he obviously has a new agenda and only time will tell how this is gonna affect the fighters in the long run.

That's gotta be against the law somehow.
these dudes signing to Haymon, and then start using his lawyers to look over their contracts

50 Cent in the XXL on Floyd Mayweather

“I don’t have bad intentions for Floyd,” 50 Cent told XXL. “I don’t want to see him lose. I don’t go to sleep and wake up like, ‘I hope you f***ing lose, stupid.’ No, I already got past that when I said what I said. I’m already done dealing with that right there.”

“I don’t understand how you get to that point and it still be so f***ed up with the girls and sh*t like that. There is no woman that I f***ed with that I wasn’t finished with before I finished the situation, since I had been successful. I don’t lose people to another person.”

Haymon has these guys selling their souls

rumours are that Roc Nation offered Wilder 2 mil to fight Stiverne

Man haymon better be paying these dudes behind closed doors

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

Roach saying the reason for the 144 catchweight is cuz PAC will move down to junior welterweight after Algieri N wants to fight the Muhfukking CHAMP next
http://ringtv.craveonline.com/news/...l-move-down-to-junior-welterweight-says-roach

Why wouldn't they fight for Algieris belt then?? Would A fight with Swift be at a catchweight?? Will Manny drop his WBO 147??




Either way becareful what you wish for Roach





Purge 2: Weekend at Mannys coming soon



#swiftset

50 Cent in the XXL on Floyd Mayweather

I agree with what 50 said but wasn't 50 feeling some type of way when him and chelsy split?

He seemed perfectly fine with it on that Howard Stern interview he did from a year or so ago.
