    When it comes to boxing I'd say the less flashy the fighter the more you need to be careful. You take a guy who looks unassuming and put him in the ring it means he's only going to care about one thing and that is to just put you in serious pain. We saw it with Tyson, Morales, Hagler, etc. Non flashy guys are the ones who you need to worry about. As they are ones usually putting in work and staying away from distraction.

    I think you are onto something here ^ :thumbsup:

    Now, if Golovkin still had his chamberpot haircut from when he was 5, he'd be the GOAT, no questions asked ;)

    lol

    That old lady at the beginning of the vid said the last time she swam was in 1978. Let that sink in. And these plastic gangsters are bragging about how rough their hood/city is? lol

    I always remember what Manny Steward said about when Wlad took him to visit where he and Vitali grew up. Steward said it made the worst Ghetto in Detroit look like a county club in comparison.

    Your post inspired me to find this:

    "I explained to him that when I was 12, I was shooting AK-47s, handling hand grenades, running through underground tunnels, practicing drills, and studying how to get along with tank attacks. He said, “What? When I was 12, I was driving to Disney World to visit Mickey Mouse. What the hell were you guys thinking?” Well, we were preparing. We’d basically been brainwashed."

    Your immaturity is only bested by your own stupidity. Are you really that desperate?

    Clearly Canelo has more heart and is hungrier.

    Cactus is a extremely popular food for Mexicans. It's very soft and tender when grilled or sautéed.

    Very interesting! What does it taste like? And which sort of cactus is edible?

    I have a huge cactus growing on my property that I was thinking of propagating. Would be a bonus if it were edible as well!!

    tried it as a kid, wasnt for me. tasted a bit bitter and a little slimey. i might feel different now with the more sophisticated palate of an adult.
    from what i understant, its the young tender leaves of a prickly pear cactus. so the leaves and the fruit are edible.

    I've spent the last few minutes looking at pictures of cacti. I'm pretty sure the beast on my land is a cardon cactus. It's been sending out fresh shoots like crazy this last year, and I reckon I'm going to try cut them off and transplant them. They would make a great border screen. Apparenly this cactus has psychoactive compounds in it, so imma going to avoid eating it ;)
