    Drenlou and @shadow111 were active for 16 hours last Tuesday defending Canelo threads :applaudit:
    The mental gymnastics they really try and drive home is amusing to say the least.

    It's worth noting, Shadow is over 40 years old with a family. Deadbeat Dad cares more about Canelo than his own flesh and blood.

    I just don't get it. Yes there's plenty of boxers I like but I can still see flaws. even in my favorite films I can still see why other people might not like them. It's the kind of thing children do like young girls with boy bands. it''s frankly odd when a grown adult does the same over someone that they will never even meet in life. I spent 60 pages bouncing Shadow off the walls on one of his Flat Earth threads. I will give him props for persistence but he eventually had to throw the towel in as he was just repeating previous points I'd already debunked in the last 10-15 pages.
    Clowns like Bandeedo and Drenlou just rage straight away and are easily triggered they are too predictable and low IQ to have any fun with for more than 5 mintutes. At least Shadow makes effort even if he is clearly deluded.

    I must be the only one in the world but I think both fights were totally reasonable to score as draws or wins for either fighter by 1 or 2 points

    The second fight was close, but I just don't see any reasonable way to score the first fight a draw let alone a Canelo win.

    Most people who like canelo have no idea about boxing. They usually are from mexican decent and dont care anything about upholding boxings scoring criteria. They just want to see a mexican win at any cost. Very tribal people.

    If you forgot Byrd's rediculous card, the other 2 cards had a draw and ggg winning by a point. It was a close fight. People act like it was lewis holyfield 1.

    Does Canelo get some judges bias for being the a side? Almost certainly. Does/did he also fight an eye pleasing style (maybe even moreso live) that seems to steal rounds? Maybe. But end of the day it was a close fight. Close than vs bivol or Mayweather for sure.

    That’s where the problem presents itself. It wasn’t a close fight. The other two cards were laughable. That’s why when Byrd card was announced the boxing world turned on Canelo and ODLH - it’s also the reason why the die hard Mexican fans have their back against the wall to this day.

    It was similar to the Fury/Wilder 1. It’s not surprising anymore when you’re fighting from outside the US.

    Just means you were a human without a dog in the fight. Nobody will admit their biases here, so don't bother lol. I thought both were close fights that could be scored either way, but gun to my head I give the 1st one to GGG and the 2nd to Canelo. I was more impressed with how Canelo fought the 2nd time around for sure tho.

    That's a lot of BS in one post.

    Everything you just said can be applied to every boxer and their fans. You don't think the Ukrainians are tribal when it comes to Usyk or Loma, The Brits about Joshua and Fury, Black folks about black fighters, Filipinos about Filipino fighters, Puerto Ricans about.... etc, etc.

    The problem is as much with the groupies as it is with the haters. The fans are gonna do what they do and throw some blind love into their idol and as they build him up the resentment and petty bickering on the other side(haters) increases. Some fighters, for many reasons, reach a level of success barely attained by others and the highs and lows are extreme. This happened, with Tyson, DLH, FLoyd, Pac and currently Canelo.

    Basically you're just the other side of the same coin and both sides always think they're being reasonable and objective.

    This is nothing new in boxing or any other sport.

    :risas3::risas3::risas3:

    On the previous page you said Canelo wasn’t doping.

    Then you realised he was and openly admitted it.

    Then you created a thread claiming every boxer is using steroids to take the heat away from your hero.

    Then you flip flopped to claim that Canelo is such a genuine guy he’s not as experienced at hiding his PED use.

    You’re exactly the type of poster/‘fan’ that @elmaldito is talking about :wanker

    Everything you just said is a lie, or in the very least your twisted take on something I said.

    You're exactly the type of petty hater I was referring to.

    You were virtually non-existent here before the fight , quiet as a mouse and all it took was a loss from someone you hated to suddenly come alive.

    Your are the epitome of what most of us call *****-MADE.

    That’s a cool story and all. You still said Canelo wasn’t a PED cheat. Then okay, maybe he is. But everyone else is a ped cheat too. And then, ah, but maybe he just doesn’t cover it up as well as others.

    It’s in your post history you absolute weapon of a human being.
