Sooooo....Porter?


:mjgrin:

Porter is at the very top of the food chain of Welterweight B fighters....but yes, Garcia is in that class somewhere on the list of B fighters. Somewhere around Jessie Vargas.

damn I wonder what made him want to retire instead of getting that one last payday. guess the numbers wasnt right.
He been retired he was doing backflips, putting his ass in the air off of grazing shots vs Manny; then invites him to the bistro post match like they are life long friends, fukk him, even Atlas was disgusted:pacspit:

It is a good decision. Timmy can still compete with most guys, but you can see he is declining and he has been in a lot of brutal fights recently. Time to get out and enjoy retirement. I personally don't like him as an announcer, but if someone wants to keep paying him that is a great career move.
:stopitslime: prime timmy had Prov problems.....

Hates that jmm bum ass inflates his resume.......

Swift vs Rios does good ratings and would prolly be entertaining. Both dudes can sell a fight. With that said, I'd prefer an opponent who has a lil more momentum going on in his career. Collazo is a better fight imo since he's coming off that Sammy Vasquez win.

If a nikka coming off a loss wants an easy fight, I won't hold it against them. That's their right imo. Now if the nikka wants to fight another top guy, instead, then hell be my guest, but I won't demand it of him.

The bigger problem is guys aren't fighting 3x-4x a year, so that one soft touch and one tough fight out the year just feels like nikkas careers aren't progressing fast enough.
Collazo is old news breh.....

Golovkin's Coach Laughs at Talk of Canelo Being a Big Puncher

Abel Sanchez, trainer of IBF, IBO, WBA, WBC middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (37-0, 33 KOs) is not impressed with the punching power of Mexican superstar Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (49-1-1, 34 KOs).

In fact, Sanchez laughs at the idea that some have given Canelo the distinction of being a "big puncher."


Golovkin will defend his titles against Canelo on September 16th, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. HBO Pay-Per-View will carry the contest.

Three of Canelo's recent knockouts have been accomplished in brutal fashion - like Amir Khan, James Kirkland and Liam Smith.

Sanchez explains that none of those knockouts are anything to brag about. Khan, who for years has been criticized over his chin, was moving up from the welterweight limit 147 to a catch-weight of 155, and he had previously been knocked out at lightweight and junior welterweight. Kirkland, who also had a questionable chin, was coming off a very long layoff, and Smith was in way over his head in terms of experience.

Sancheez believes Canelo is not a true puncher. He views him as being more of a slapper, a fighter who throw slapping combinations to score points during fights. Canelo was never able to seriously hurt opponents like Erislandy Lara or Miguel Cotto in close contests.

“Amir Khan was a lightweight and he got knocked out by [Breidis] Prescott,” Sanchez said to Yahoo Sports. “And you’re going to make it look like a huge deal that he hurt Kirkland? Kirkland hadn’t fought for two years and he gets hurt by everybody. Ishida knocked him out. Who has [Alvarez] knocked out that you could say, ‘Yeah, that was a great KO of a guy who is tough to KO?’

“He’s a slapper. He’s a slapper who throws very good, fast combinations. He’s going to have to do more than slap to keep Golovkin off of him.”
