I protested a Richard Spencer speech which was at my college yesterday. What did you do?

I hate when boxing fukks over somebody, because it usually leads them to fukk over somebody else and the process repeats itself.

GGG was ducked for years and had to clean out a whole division full of C and B minus boxers in order to make a name for himself. Now that he finally came up, his people acting funny with a potential Big Charlo fight. I don't think he's done enough at 160 for an immediate fight, but if he were to beat another contender (one that isn't injured or etc..) then yeah I see no problem with GGG fighting him. Charlo is proven at 154. 160 is different so I can see where GGG people are coming from.

But the way they sounding, Charlo could actually earn the fight and they would still avoid dude. :snoop:

Nobody is dropping a belt to avoid Jermall

Besides body shots, Triple G is most susceptible to the orthodox uppercut aka 'Malls video game punch

I don't think GGG is afraid of Charlo much. At least I don't think he's pulling a duck like he did against Ward. Charlos are dangerous, but that's a 50/50 fight.

Abel, however, sounds he wants no part of that fight. Like I said in the previous pages, GGG is getting old and he's ripped for the picking. By next year, GGG will be easier work because he never relied on his boxing skills. He relied on power. Charlo is a big dude and he can hurt you with that one punch.


I'd be careful with that fight too.

Again, I'm not saying they should duck but I understand

I would add that I don't even think Charlo is on GGG's radar at all. GGG wants that Canelo rematch and will want a Lemieux/BJS unification (assuming he beats Canelo). I think GGG would love the talk of Cotto wanting the GGG-Canelo winner. Honestly I don't think it would be a duck at all, they aren't in GGG's world at all right now.

The way to do it is to make yourself a mandatory and force a fight. Otherwise, career wise or financially GGG has little motivation in the next year to year and a half.

Frazier used to whip Holmes ass in sparring, he broke his ribs.

Holmes was tailor made for Frazier.

I don't see any outboxer being able to beat Frazier...outside of MAYBE Lennox because of the difference in size & power...and he was a better (and dirtier) infighter than Holmes & Ali.

But if McCall can put Lewis on his ass...so could Frazier .

Nah breh, it's a duck and I'm fine with that. It's a dangerous fight for too low of a reward.

How these guys were so big back then. Holmes and Foreman were giants.

McCall got about 20 lbs and 3 inches on Frazier...that's not a ridiculous difference in size & weight @ Heavy.

Wilder is only a few lbs heavier than Frazier and arguably the biggest hitter in the division...David Haye has been one the biggest punchers in the division for awhile at around Frazier's weight.

Holyfield at around Frazier's weight stopped and dropped alot of big heavys...Frazier without a doubt hits harder than Holyfield.

Frazier has hurt guys around Lennox's size....and i doubt McCall's right hand is harder than Joe's left.
