    Kathy Duva was right all along, we had to accept her statements as a fact.

    In today's boxing, you have to KO your opponent to win if the odds are
    all against you.

    If you dont lose 5 of the first 6 rounds because of inactivity, it helps you not to lose too.

    I knew that someone was going to take last nights event and tie it to Ward/Kova. LOL. What a joke. What odds were against Pac? He was the star of the show and his company was basically running it. You make 0 sense as usual. Desperate reaching attempts to try to explain how the guy, that was supposed to savagely KO Ward twice, got stopped.

    What is the benefit of having Horn win? Other than that Pac can rematch him and make another 10 mil for a fight that he can win?

    Each country has their own thing that can be complained about, once upon a time you had to get a KO to beat an Italian in Italy, Now we have the soft stoppages in the UK, Russia and their drugs and above all else America with their drugs, soft stoppages, dodgy judging, dodgy reffing, awful contracts, short training camps, A sides an thier fighters just not willing to travel or take risky or tough challenges. Not many fights i watch from Stateside these days where at the end of the fight there is no controversy and the best man certainly doesnt always win.

    Lol, because Brits haven't insulated their boxing scene and crowned a dozen paper champs. Spence just went over their and broke their best fighter's face. After LSC made Frampton look like chump change in the rematch.

    Andre Ward and Canelo should have taken their fights over to Eastern Europe to fight Kovalev and Golovkin who are based out of LA. I cant believe the American judges robbed the New Yorker Danny Jacobs in NY of all places against the Eastern European fighter based out of LA!

    My point is if you fight on their backyard, you will likely lose on the cards. Take the case GGG vs Brook. Brook was ahead before the stoppage.

    I dont mean every single one, Im a big Spence fan he had no qualms about coming over to the UK and did a hell of a job when he got here. Davis did the same although the gulf in class between him and Walsh were enough for some to know it was near enough a sure thing. But its all just got too messy in America but as it is still the Mecca for Boxing and it still brings globally the highest revenues rules seem to be so easy to break or bend that anybody with any power over there is taking advantage of it in many different ways and in the end it is us Boxing fans that suffer, all of us.

    Thats cause Brook was landing brownies on GGG and lifting him off his feet with uppercuts. So much so that it led to Golovkin fans swearing on boxing forums that Gee was letting himself be hit.

    Nah, I don't suffer. I don't waste my energy crying on the internet about scorecards. I just enjoy the fights. Pac looked like ****. Deserved to lose.

    Seems it with America now doesn't it..They've more than caught up with Germany Uk, in fact they've blown everyone out the water. Fighters need to make sure they're getting well paid to travel there now, they ain't coming back with their belts if it's a distance fight and close one

    Lol a 160lb fighter cannot lift another 160 fighter off their feet with punches, only a fool would think that. You have zero proof that's why you cannot give me examples and are swerving it
