    Based on what, his inferior ticket sales? His smaller crowds? His comparative lack of PPV success? His less exciting fights? In what rational world was he the A-side beyond his (and his team's) amazing ability to negotiate things in their favor vs. other fighters who should have had way more pull on where a fight happened in what size ring and with what judges/referees?

    It was me who contended that, and it was from an interview where he stated everything was "50-50" that it would be at 164. I'll try to find it, but I can barely be assed after waking up this early, and tbh it would totally be in keeping with Andre's character to not be able to keep track of all his lies.

    Golovkin and Loeffler challenged Ward to release the emails that Ward keeps mentioning, but Ward hasn't.

    Context would be nice.. None of those bar Billy came to win.. And Billy won the belt of Isufi, looked poor against his last fight against shot Murray and hadn't fought a legit opponent since 2017 in Lemieux

    I am not a member of the Lions Den Boxing Club nor do I have anything against them either. I love boxing. That’s why I post here and I was here before this site was infliltrated by the despicables. As for the LDBC guys in my experience they are true boxing lovers and if they support their own God Bless them.

    Why is it that blowhards like Teddy Atlas and Andre Ward always talk about "I GOT RECEIPTS!" but when it comes time to produce them all we get are crickets?

    This is your entrenched opinion. You believe they were all fixed fights, opponents paid to take dives or something. That's fine. I have no interest in arguing the point, you're entitled to believe it.

    It's by the by. Bottom line, Canelo's body of work > Murata's. That is but one criterion a fellow might use to determine which of Canelo and Murata is the better fighter. Canelo wins in the other criteria, too.

    Corruption is what failed him, nothing more. Canelo raised his game in losing efforts to GGG. Then waited four years. Is he ready for the forty year old version of zGGG? This ain't Celeb Plant here.
