Yeah u connecting the dots. When canelo wins, his next fight will probably be Lemieux

he passed on Jacobs and BJS too he must be too worried that they would ruin his Cotto payment. Other question that I think in the BJS case this was mutual, think BJS also didn't want Lemieux cause he's worried that he might ruin his Canelo vs Golovkin winner payday.

Damn I thought Jacobs vs. Lemeiux was a lock for the undercard of GGG/Canelo

Lemieux clearly shook of good 160lbers, unless they have to kill themselves to make it. Hope this CACanada breh gets and ends up fighting Willie Monroe Jr or something

fukk that shyt. If I was Canelo I'd tell him to hit the bricks. He clearly avoiding BJS/Danny Jacobs..............fukk that noise

Bernard is slurring in his breakfast club interview. And sadly he thinks that he sounds normal.

Just imagine how Roy jones will sound?

He's going to sound like James toney in the future.

I just read a article stating he wants the cotto fight, he mentions the mistakes of fighting only months apart and how that was a mistake and that a doctor told him he has the hands of a 80 year old.

But ya u should never pass on a championship fight.

Edit: I doubt cotto will even fight him at 160

“The surgery had to be done, because I could have given another performance, but that could have been the last performance of my career,” Thurman said. “That’s how bad my elbow was. When you look at the bigger picture [now], you realize that everything is OK. This is what I have to do. There have been times when I’ve been here in Nepal during this vacation and I [tell myself] I had such a great camp for [Garcia] with the conditioning and everything that I was doing.

“I enjoyed being in the gym and afterward I could have been right back in the gym, if possible. I know I have a career in the sport that I love. This is the art that I chose to be in as a child. That makes me happy. I stay positive and stay happy to live the life of Keith ‘One Time’ Thurman. My bigger picture is that I’m the undefeated, unified welterweight champion of the world. Nobody else gets to say that.

“The debate that my stock doesn’t get to rise is nothing I can help. But it’s not going to fall, either. My stock is sustained at a high level that has been progressing for many years. My highest priority is to have a full, healthy career as a boxer. It doesn’t matter if my stock rises or falls. What matters is that I live out my career to the fullest potential. I have to ride this thing out. I have to take this time off before I can bounce back. I would love to fight before the end of the year, but I’m not going to place a date on anything.”

“To be honest, I was kind of frustrated when I first heard six months,” Thurman said. “I wanted the doctor to explain it to me again. They went in and removed some junk and my elbow is going to be a lot better. It was going to take six months? After three months of ice and rest, it would still take six months? I know this is going to be a slow progression.

“Once I get back in the U.S., I’m going to go back and see the doctor right away so we can apply a date to coming back. I can do some cardio and some light work, which can be hard to do in the high altitude of Kathmandu. I gave it a go and I was pretty beat. They told me back home it would take time to adjust to the altitude.”

“I wanted to see Tokyo and everywhere I go, I see and meet boxing people, and it’s a beautiful thing to meet people that admire what you do,” said Thurman, who plans on returning to the United States in August. “I went to a small club lounge and Priyana worked behind the bar. It happened to be my first night in Tokyo. It was a Sunday night, and my buddy and I got real familiar with that bar. She didn’t know who I was.

“I was on vacation. I wasn’t looking for love or anything, and she happened. I asked her out and that date happened to be one of the best days of my life. People search real hard to find someone like her. I got out of my comfort zone and found my love. She’s made this [injury] go away. I didn’t let her know who I was because boxing is just a job, something that I do. Boxing provides the chance to get away. It’s enabled me to see the world—and now it’s led to me meeting the love of my life.

“I’ll be back. But I’ll be back on my terms and when I’m healthy. This is a pause button.”

Lemieux got a name and the same promoter as canelo. It's gonna happen

 

[patscorpio]

This was a dope fight for real

 

[SuikodenII]

I'm kinda hyped for this Davies/Taylor fight...

I assumed this would be a big money fight down the road but I see they're going the Groves/DeGale route of getting it out of the way early...

The WBSS tournament is finally ready and seeded

Maybe. I'm surprised he doesn't already sound like that. It's crazy,seems like most guys that can take a punch,end up hurt the most. Ali,toney,now Hopkins
