This wasn't FOTY worthy to you ?
Come to think of it Edwin been in back to back FOTY contenders
Wilder beat the piss out of Stiverne with a fractured hand and sprained eye
Instead of a rematch you can re watch that beating this Friday 11:00 p.m on SHOEXTREME
You're hilarious breh

Did he get screwed against De La Hoya?
Yes he was imo. Pernell's defense was on point as usual and he outboxed ODLH.
The fight against DLH also spawned these classics:
That defense
as he should...pernell whitaker is the greatest defensive fighter ive ever seen

Yup! Probably the most complete fighter I've ever seen. He's the only other LW in history I believe that could beat a prime Duran

Daily Bread Mailbag: Canelo-Golovkin, Khan, Harrison-Dallas - Boxing News
I'm sure you will be bombarded with emails on the Khan fight.. All the skills required.. No power to hurt Cinnamon, came close thou.. He MUST fight GGG next.. and I think he has a chance.. Do you?
Bread’s Response: Khan has lots of skills but not ALL the skills required to fight such a fight. His lack of concentration and ability to process is what keeps him from being a great fighter. Yes I give Canelo a reasonable chance to win his fight vs GGG. Canelo is hard to win a decision against. Extremely hard. It’s something about his judge friendly punches that influences the judges in his favor. He’s expected lo lose to GGG so a competitive performance may lead to over compensating in the scoring. He also has a good chin so its not out of the question he can go the distance. I say 65/35 in GGG’s favor at this moment.
Now that Canelo dispatched Khan where do you think the Fall will lead us. Kovalev vs Ward, GGG vs Canelo, Mayweather vs Garcia, Crawford vs Postol, Charlo vs Jrock, Santa Cruz vs Frampton. Anything other big possibilities I missed.
Bread’s Response: From your mouth to God’s ears. I can hopefully us boxing junkies could be so lucky. You forgot Thurman vs Porter and possibly Chocalito vs Estrada and Brook vs Spence.
I am getting excited for Postol vs. Crawford. How does the disciplined Eastern European style typically fare against the urban boxer? How are you calling this fight?
The Eastern Euros handle the urban fighters the best. Lomachenko did great vs Gary Russell. Krusher Kovalev did well against Bernard Hopkins. GGG was able to handle Curtis Stevens, Willie Monroe and Dominic Wade. Crawford has his work cut out for him. I say Crawford by decision but he’s really going to have to earn it. Freddie Roach seems to see something in Crawford he thinks is exploitable. I think his superior athleticism will get him over down the stretch but this is a real fight. Floyd Mayweather hits you right on the kisser with clean shots. Amir Khan slashes you about with a multiple shots. I will take accuracy over speed any day of the week.

Yeah he is the defensive goat. I would have been heated fighting him. You just can't corner that nikka

Not like Wlad's gonna knock him down... In fact, Wlad better wish he don't knock Saint Tyson down. Every time the Saint has risen from the canvas, the opponent decends into hell, unable to beat the count of ten.
