    Because Jack a subpar Super Middleweight and subpar Light Heavyweight picking the bones and winning the Cruiserweight title, beating a long time champ is nauseating.

    Lol no. He only held the WBA regular championship at LHW. Good win for Jack, but it needs to be viewed in context.. Makabu was lucky to still be holding on to the belt, as he looked terrible and clearly lost to Mchunu. Jack has had a good career with lots of ups and downs, but you need to calm down.

    Personally had it 7-4 after 11 but a lot of the rounds were razor close. Still an amazing performance from a 39 year old tho.

    Would have been better had Mchunu gotten the nod in the rematch now wouldn't it?

    Stoppage was a bit early but Jack was going to put him to sleep eventually. The shots were landing too accurately.

    Broner was good until he stopped training and attempted to be the next money man.

    Happy for Jack. He's had some disappointing results.

    You know what I mean just so excited for him. Not many win world champions in 3 weight divisions or even a world championship. Those who do are a class apart.

    Between referees and corners stopping fights early and fighters unwilling to go on this has been a very frustrating two weeks.

    He had skills, and was exciting. Just a lazy idiot

    Badou seems so basic, has never looked like a great fighter lol
