    Canelo clearly outclassed GGG in their first encounter, and showed he was the far superior boxer. Canelo deserved victory in close but clear fashion but GGG was gifted a draw on some participation trophy shenanigans.

    Unpopular Opinion: Without those shots to the head and behind the ears of Joshua (equilibrium), Ruiz would've lost the 1st fight the way he lost the rematch.

    :D

    Yeh, I completely agree with what you said here.

    I have been waiting for a long time for him to fight meaningful fights, but for one reason or another that has not come about. Most of it is on him, but part of it is Wilder/Joshua/Fury ... these top HWs, not being keen to take on someone like him. Joshua could have got the Pulev fight done instead of Miller (Ruiz).

    Pulev seems to be more motivated at the moment than for a long time, so it's now or never for him. Pulev, Manuel Charr, Oquendo, even Ortiz ... are kind of clogging up the division ATM.

    Yeah, I don't see why Fury can't stop Wilder if he lands some on the button and follows up. It's just tricky getting to Wilder without putting yourself at huge risk.
    The idea Fury has no power has become a bit of a myth. It's hard to determine just how much power Fury can deliver because he did make a style choice to box safely over the years, unless dragged into a dogfight, so it's hard to place it. Most HW's don't fight like him. But here's some evidence to the fact he might potentially have relatively 'good' power, good enough to be dangerous, at least.

    > Hurt Cunningham with body punches, uppercut, finished him with a short hook/uppercut. Cunningham is tough and hard to stop.
    > Corner stopped Chisora boxing on the backfoot
    > Dropped and corner stopped Hammer, which Ortiz failed to do
    > Did hurt Wilder badly with the counter hook in the 12th, Wilder was slumping on him just like he did versus Ortiz. Now, Wilder 's chin is considered pretty good these days after Ortiz and the Haye comments.
    Comments from opponents/trainers:
    > Years ago someone who sparred Fury ranked his power similar to Povetkin, can't remember who
    > Roach recently said the left especially had good power.
    > Busted Malik Scott's eardrum in sparring
    > Wallin admitted he was hurt a number of times and that Fury has pop.

    Joshua's new style is boring just like Wlad Klit's Octopuss Style was but since he's a Brit the AJ FanBoyz love it now!

    Most don't like Safety First Heavyweights but prefer the Bowe vs Holyfield type Wars, you hit me and I hit you, no dancing around running and jabbing in an oversized ring and grabbing your opponent if he tries to hit you back... It's not only boring but pathetic and why people would pay to see it is ridiculous...

    But most AJ FanBoyz would pay good money to watch AJ undress and pump weights for 4 hours on Pay Per Views!

    Errrrr, What do you mean "a few different forums"?

    to be honest with you it feels like you're being unfaithful, I'm genuinely hurt.


    I bet the other forum has a slim waist, bigger boobs and laughs at all your jokes, you disgust me.

    Sucking Canelo's junk doesn't equate "having an opinion".

    Wallin is 6'6" and 230-240lbs he's not a lot smaller than Fury.

    I'm pretty sure Fury is the only man to stop Cunningham.
