    No, of course not :lol::good

    If I've seen tape of both guys, I'll make a prediction based on that, level of competition, age, size, and stylistic factors.

    In this case, since I have good background knowledge of both guys, I'm picking how I usually pick, and that's Canelo.

    When I'm totally unsure who to pick and unfamiliar with both fighters, I'll usually decide based on who looked better at the weigh-ins, who has better attire, and who had better entrance music before the fight (I mostly only resort to that in MMA though, since I don't follow MMA as closely as I follow boxing.)

    That sometimes even works in situations where I do know about both fighters and might even be favoring one on more conventional methods before a fight. I was favoring Overeem (as was much of the universe) before the Bigfoot, but immediately developed some doubts following the weigh in. I even said Overeem was absolutely toast when he came out to that shitass rave song as an entrance, and had garbage gray shorts to boot. This on top of looking soft at the weigh in. And I was right.

    Vs. Lesnar:

    Contrast that with what happened with those 3 factors vs. Bigfoot:

    Overeem claiming he wasn't on roids was laughable.

    Obviously not. A lot of dudes that fought in Japan juiced up to the eyeballs since they had no testing over there. Like Badr Hari, for instance.

    Then after he was in jail for awhile, to:

    I think Overeem had the testosterone levels of a 79 year old man according to test results released after the Bigfoot fight.

    Get ready for a TRT exemption followed by a new run where he rips through the division :yep:good:lol:

    Think it was Rampage Jackson who said " I miss the Pride days, they didn't care if we was on something or not."

    Pride FC was like 1990/early 2000s Major League Baseball: a lot more corrupt than the sport is today, but nobody cared because it was more entertaining and there was more spectacle than there is now.

    This **** is photoshopped no way is Canelo is just a few inches shorter then trout... some idiotic folks will have you believe canelo is a 5'7 midget that cannot compete with taller men over sized and large guys like trout who would trump him with sheer height alone :nut:patsch... idiot haters, watch them come in here with my foot in there mouth and try and say canelo is wearing high heels while trout is barefoot or that **** is photoshopped:rofl

    well as the pictures show, canelo does not look undersized how cotto looked like a midget at the weigh ins' canelo looks bigger, and just a few inches shorter, so we know who the powerful guy is gonna be in there.
