    Is that how you score fights? With stats? :roto2palm:
    Dearie me. Stats mean nothing in boxing. Nothing. Learn how to score a fight if you’re going to comment on an RBR thread

    Exactly, I find the hypocritical selective outrage just as appalling as you do. Angel and Danny Garcia and Teo Sr & Jr, for some inexplicable reason get a pass, when they know damned well better, growing up in the US. But a guy who can barely speak English like Kovalev, zero quarter given.

    I stated the fact that Lopez’s face is a bloody mess. You melted down and had a fit. I’m fine with the decision, it’s just too bad the POS won.

    Lopez vs. Prograis next. Nothing else makes sense based on merit.

    4 rounds for Taylor is fair. Anything within the 3-4 range is fair. Anything more or less is bias one way or another.

    I love an upset, but I'm very much dreading how Teofimo will act until he gets served his next slice of humble pie. Shame such a talented dude has to also be such a massive jackass, but unfortunately that combination ain't a rarity.

    Anyways, bring on Lopez vs. Prograis. I feel like that's the best fight. I wouldn't mind seeing either one of them whoop Romero's ass first though, simply cause I want him relieved of his belt as soon as possible.

    ...Actually, nah, don't pair Lopez and Romero together. The world doesn't need the cringe inducing tough talk that would come from those two being in the same room multiple times in preparation for a fight.

    Unfortunately J Cat gets left out in the cold again. In my opinion the best 140 pounder.

    Sometimes it takes going through a rough patch to find out what's inside you. Great performance from Lopez tonight.

    Maybe. But he didn't clearly separate himself against Taylor like Lopez did.

    Taylor has definitely regressed since the Cat fight, taking nothing away from Teo as it was a great win vs an ''undefeated'' fighter, but its plainly obvious.
