For somebody who isn't as knowledgeable in the sweet science, can y'all explain to me why Miguel Cotto is a HOFer?

I ask because if I was ignorant and just looked at his resume, i'd be at the thought of him being considered an HOF

His resume is legit nikkas like zab are borderline hof. It's a reason Cotto dominated zab

Crawford posted some footage of him n Garcia amateur fight. not much to go off since its so short.

The boxing hall of fame is kinda easy to get into zab. Very well make it eventually

So you really believe he on that shyt?

No doubt in my mind my nikka. He most likely ran something before the official camp and cut it too close so he couldn't do his post cycle therapy properly without getting popped for it in his urine. There is a combo of stuff you run during the last part of your cycle to offset bytch t*ts n shrunken testicles(due to your body producing more estrogen because all of the synthetic test it's getting).

i'm really in disbelief at the audacity of this fukkin clown. this dude turned down ward because ward wasn't a "big money" fight, and now he's calling canelo a business man?


this is a direct quote from abel sanchez on a potential ward fight


“First of all, the fans and the media can demand it but if it doesn’t make financial sense at the moment or in the future, it’s not gonna be made. I think that we all have to recognize that this is a business and it has to make sense for everybody concerned"



:FloydWTF:


I really wanna see this fight but I hope canelo makes this clown wait a LONG time. biggest fukkin hypocrite in boxing.....they both agreed to letting canelo have another fight first, but they still can't keep from talking shyt every other day. kick rocks fakkit

If Kostya Tszyu, Virgil Hill, Naseem Hamed & Gatti got in...then Cotto HAS to be in there.

I don't think you would wanna see Leo go to work on him. Unless GRJ can make the fight on the inside only and close the distance Leo will have him look like Mares

LSC is only effective coming forward and doesn't make any real adjustments...that was more than telling when that jobber faced on pac-may lasted the distance...the jobber was moving all of the place AND was countering him clean..the only bad thing was cayetano could not hurt him and vice versa

i dont put much too much stock in the mares win especially since old ass jhonny got him out of there in a round..mares fought like a fool against LSC..trying to out volume a volume puncher and couldn't keep up that pressure got worn down

Boone: Gennady Golovkin Beats Andre Ward and Sergey Kovalev - Boxing News

Boone: Gennady Golovkin Beats Andre Ward and Sergey Kovalev

By Edward Chaykovsky

Journeyman veteran Darnell Boone, who is still one of the most dangerous opponents in the game for an up and coming prospect, was used as a sparring partner for IBO/WBA/IBF middleweight champion Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin, who returns this Saturday night against Dominic Wade at The Forum in Los Angeles, California.

Boone is the only boxer who can say that he dropped Sergey Kovalev, dropped Andre Ward, and stopped Adonis Stevenson.

Boone fought Ward in 2005, scoring a knockdown in the fourth round, but losing a six round unanimous decision. He dropped Kovalv in an eight round bout in 2010 and lost a close eight round split decision. He was knocked out by Kovalev in two rounds in their 2012 rematch.

In the opinion of Boone, Golovkin would beat both Ward and Kovalev - if they every stepped in the ring with him.

Ward and Kovalev are being positioned to face each other in the fall, but Boone feels the Olympic gold medal winner needs a few more fights before facing the unified champion of 175-pounds.

“Triple-G beats Ward and Kovalev,” Boone said to the LA Times. “Ward has better boxing skills, but with the power, it’s Gennady. What separates him is he trains so hard. To see him work out and spar, he’s a different fighter, never wastes shots, never gets overzealous.”

“I like Ward, but if he can’t shake off the rust .… It looked like something was missing [in last month’s fight with Sullivan Barrera]. He was flat-footed, he was breathing heavy. I don’t know if it’s the added weight or the layoff, but whatever, they’ve got to get it under control."

“I think he needs two or three more fights before Kovalev. I’m keeping it 100. That fight this year? Dangerous. If Kovalev hits him with those shots he usually hits guys with, it could be an early night.”

Hatton got in didn't he? Tbh I think zab has a shot the boxing hall of fame is rather easy to get into

The GGG press has been sickening this week. Dude gets better press in the states than pretty much any American fighter.

I'm glad he's putting a lil heat on carrot top

 

[mr. smoke weed]

That's weird I don't remember him giving Shane Mosley any problems in sparring
