@Newzz what do you want next for Easter? Clearly not unification. That fight vs Shafikov was rough.

because he had a tough fight vs a tough opponent, someone who also beat Richard Commey, he's not ready to face even a Linares or Flanagan next?

 

[Newzz]

Linares woul beat him, against Flanagan he would be the slight favorite probably. Mikey is busy now

Linares couldnt beat DeMarco, but he beats Easter?

I was really hyped off the Spence brook fight so I said Keith pretty much has no chance against spence. But I almost forgot how sharp Keith is in the early rounds. He has that speed and pop and hurts damn near everybody he fights early. He's also great in close quarters. Considering brook was able to land cleanly on Spence early, I think Keith would have a good shot to hurt him. I still favor Spence but I see it as more of an even fight now. Well 60-40 spence......one half keith thurman is the tale of two fighters. First half Keith is .....2nd half Keith is

This fight is gonna be
Shame he's out with injury. I wonder how long it will take for this fight to materialize

It won't no time soon by the time Thurman healthy either him or Spence wouldn't be able to make 147 anymore

got caught late otherwise he beat Demarco... 6 years passed since. and based on what I saw from both of them in their recent fights...

Don't say that Easter not capable of doing the same, catching him late but I still rather see Linares outboxing him throughout the night and winning by UD

Let's talk about Julius Indongo. He managed to pick up 2 titles, which is no easy feat despite the era we are in with 4 titles per weight class.


2 titles, undefeated, black, tall, committed to the jab

You just can't sleep on a guy like that.

How much of a chance does he have?

I dont believe in him...at all.

Troyanovsky? Burns? Beating them make you legit now?

 

[Newzz]

I gotta see another fight from em. I aint take much away from him washing a washed Ricky Bums. From what i seen, Crawford should handle him if Crawford is as nice as he's gassed up to be. That reach and akwardness Indongo has will pose some problems though.

@Newzz why didn't AB go get that belt from Burns first

Exactly how I feel

He the number 2 man at 140 hate it or love it. Them wins about on par with Broner title wins at 140 and 147. If u believe in Broner @140 u might as well believe in Indongo. Put some respect on that man title wins because you dnt mind telling us about 4x champ Broner when reality Broner fought trash opps for his titles @140/147

I haven't seen Flanagan fight as I stated before, plus he got the WBO which will be Felix's belt to lose. After watching him fight Shafikov, I think he'd lose to Linares right now. But nah having two toss up 115-113 type fights out of your last three? Not a good sign.

 

[mr. smoke weed]

He was shook of not letting him wear his gloves.

Floyd was scared.

Wait didn't they wear the same gloves? Wasn't Floyd the side with the matchmaking 'advantage'? Is Floyd a power puncher? Or does he have brittle soft ass hands? This isn't critical thinking breh.

Keith punches wide when he gets exchanges, although sharp as seen in that GIF, Spence punches straight down the pipe-body/head biggest difference to me.

 

[mr. smoke weed]

Floyd was shook....

He turned into the Lil boy needing encouragement from his dad when he said he couldn't see...He feared the power, he feared the relentlessness and he feared the cards, and sat in the pocket and fought as such...

Fighters like cotto, manny, canelo he enjoyed n toyed with them....he didn't enjoy shyt chino vs x2

But a fighter at Floyd's level scared of gloves

He was so shook he made an immediate re-match against a non-draw opponent y'all got me feeling like a Floyd stan how this euroCAC talking point migrated to the Ring is beyond me. Last post about this bullshyt

Yup.

That's why he had accept it.

Floyd on the other hand was saying the fight was off if maidana didn't wear the gloves he wanted him to wear
