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

Canelo not a true MW doesn't count in my book. Andy Lee is the Jacobs backup, Eubank JR was over his dad, and well yeah Quillin counts

He's Lineal Champion of the division though...it's not right to drag out a fight vs the best opponent in your division for so long.


I said this same thing about Floyd vs Manny.


Nobody wants to wait years to see the best 2 fighters in the same division face off.

Agree to disagree breh.

The criteria for calling anything a 'duck' is massively subjective

Exactly.


It's opinion based, bc none of us have any insight into the negotiations between GGG and his opponents.

 

[mr. smoke weed]

If GGG was as garbage as nikkas would want you to believe, somebody of note would have faced him by now.

Don't think anyone that knows boxing thinks triple G is garbage breh, It's the bullshyt associated with him. Fat fukk Mario Loeffler the constant talking etc etc.

Triple G is a good boxer with elite+++ power and elite skills at cutting off the ring.

If GGG was as garbage as nikkas would want you to believe, somebody of note would have faced him by now. Hell, even his leftovers are struggling to get fights.

I won't say Lee is ducking him tho. My Irish breh got balls. He'll shoot the fade, but all these other nikkas out here are straight ducking. Eubanks and BJS being the too biggest culprits, with Canelo as the ringleader of bytchery. If GGG ducked Ward without ever fighting at supermiddle, than Canelo definitely ducked him worse since he actually fought for a belt in that division. nikkas be wanting it both ways.

fukking Mora ducked Taylor title fight, but years later fights Jacobs for a watered down version of the title.

2016, where a welter will take a title shot at middleweight before actual middleweights would.

Right.


But nikkas in the ring wanna convince me that GGG isn't being ducked by the top Middleweights


nikkas don't even want a title shot in 2016

Exactly, Dude knocks out soft ass Stitches (something that I'm sure most of us in here could do) and now he thinks he can beat a 4x champion world class boxer

and yeah I remember that TMT gym footage. That big ass mma cat got busted up badly from just a couple of decent punches.

In my life, I've only come across a handful of big dudes that can legit fight. Most get by on intimidating dudes with their size. nikkas look at them like their Andre the Giant and start

and if they have to fight them, they end up fighting with no heart since they don't think they can win.

Yessssir. I think many of us #InTheRing folks could beat the shyt out of Wack ourselves. Broner would knock him into next week with a check hook.

 

[Newzz]

And why would he avoid him?

I didn't say he's avoiding his mandatory, I said I know he isn't fighting him.


Culcay is responsible to enforce the mandatory.

Agree to disagree breh.

You don't mind waiting years for the best in the division to face each other...that's on you breh

- Why don't Chicago, Boston, and Atlanta have more boxing events? They don't have any real meaningful local draws. If they did, they definitely would get fights.

bolded is true unfortunately for boston..we have fighters but none that made that jump to draw

- Harder puncher: Thurman or prime Matthysse? Matthysse.

of course

- Donaire vs. Jhonny Gonzalez? Donaire.

but jhonny always have some fukkery loaded up in his fists.donaire i salute for taking on damn neat the boogiemen in his divisions (rigo, axe man), unlike frampton, lsc, and quigg who played hop skip and jump

- Ortiz should likely beat Scott in round 1.

- Very possible we see a December tripleheader from Showtime with: Charlo-Williams, Zlatacanin-Garcia, and Cuellar-Mares.

dope card..

- Norris vs. Tito? Tito.

almost happened in 97.almost

- Fights he would recommend to a newcomer to boxing and wanted to catch up on GOAT level fights: Corrales-Castillo 1, Gatti-Ward 1 and 3, Morales-Barrera 1 and 3, Vazquez-Marquez 1, 2 and 3, Holyfield-Bowe trilogy, Leonard-Hearns 1, Hagler-Hearns, Sanchez-Gomez, Somsak-Monshipour, Pacquiao-Marquez 1-4, Lewis-Klitschko, Douglas-Tyson, Holyfield-Tyson 1, Holyfield-Qawi 1, Holyfield-Dokes, Gatti-Rodriguez, Hamed-Kelley, De La Hoya-Mosley 1, Chavez-Taylor 1, Pryor-Arguello 1, Foreman-Lyle, Bradley-Provodnikov, Vargas-Miura, Freitas-Barrios, Holmes-Norton, Toney-Jirov, Akira Yaegashi-Pornsawan Porpramook and Trinidad-Vargas.

perfect starter pack for the new boxing fan

- Seth Mitchell retired after the Arreola fight and believes he works for the Secret Service in some capacity.

good to hear that he was able to move on..although who was the genius after that shaky ass win in the rematch with banks to match him in with arreola :russ..the odds for that fight were pure fukkery..like you would win big if dude didint get ko'ed in the first 3 rounds

- Is Chris Algieri done? As a legit contender.

i dont think being ko'ed by spence means hes done as a contender..he arguably almost beat khan and had an easier time with bone than shawn porter did,..we will see going forward i guess

Lol that'd be great if the b players would already face each other too. Were literally getting the "best" vs the absolute worst.

Like its a contest to one up the other on what generic jobber they can find. Waiting on Thurman to get a tune up before the alleged Garcia fight probably find some guy name Manny Mayweather as a rib.

Just clarifying

Truth...so true.

Nobody wants to take a chance of losing...and then wonder why Khan is the highest paid B fighter in the world

Seth !Mitchel must have an accounting degree cause there's no way secret service would hire anyone without :

1. Military background
2. Intelligence background.
