    :lol: Probably, I was being generous to Hart, he has no chance, Dashon Johnson came within a hair of violently KOing him. David kills him too. Zurdo would be an issue for all three, but I think I'd give David the edge.

    This fight once again shows how much of a liar Alvarez and his team are. They used to claim that they wanted the GGG fight at 155 because Alvarez was a "small middleweight". Yet now he fights at 168.

    I don't see what you and @Serge see in Benavidez. Don't get me wrong I think he has the potential to be a really good fighter. But as of now all the champs beat him pretty clearly for me except Uzcategui. I think Uzcategui is a good style for Benavidez.

    It's not odd at alll. He's a small mw to begin with and is only trying to become a 3 division championn so he picked the weakest link to get it. Can't be mad at him while greats before him have done it for years. Leonard-Lalonde, Jones-Ruiz, Pac-Margarito ect... This isn't anything new a d he's not staying at 168 either.

    Fielding is the regular champ. He's not a 3 division champ beating a regular champ. If Fielding was the super champ it would make sense even though Fielding is utter trash.

    In this day and age if GGG can have 20 title defenses and almostt break hopikins record, with interim and regular title defenses, I guess it's safe to say that Fielding is the wba super mw champion

    Modern day Boxing. There is greatness in moving up in weight and claiming world titles and the modern way is to pick off the weakest fish and Oscar looked at the division and saw a weak fish. Not that it matters to me, Canelo is a massive drugs cheat, who was gifted some belts after losing twice to Golovkin and will be on the peds right now.

    He might not be now, but Crack eats away at your brain and leaves long term scars, I think this is what's happening here

    Will he though, I mean he won a title at 160 a couple of year ago and dropped it when he had a not too far from prime fighter waiting for him to unify against, and we all know what happened. Right now its looking like a cherry pick, that could go wrong

    The only thing Alvarez destroyed was his own reputation when he dropped the WBC belt and tested positive for PEDs.

    You should look into how many 160 bums as you call them are now running 168.

    Run along
