    This is from a person who routinely defends Canelo.

    You have no leg to stand on, shut up and go cheer for the guy who's fighting a guy three weight classes below him, we'll cheer for the guy who's a 2x Undisputed champion at HW who never needed a rehydration clause and never tested positive for PEDs. :flipa:

    Also can I just say how glad I am Usyk finally got to celebrate post fight without someone whining at him or about the fight afterwards? That was refreshing to see.

    Itauma isn't even proven yet... that'd be a heavy ask.

    Certainly better than the current lot.

    I can't remember a number 1 Heavyweight in the 90s arguably losing to an MMA fighter like Fury was considered at the time "number 1".

    Have to agree here. After seeing that mediocre chin of Dubois exposed again, I think Holmes leaves him on his ass just the same.

    Definitely not slow I thought he looked huge but if anything he looked faster than fury fights. But of course that could be an illusion with dubois being slower than fury.

    Bakole let me down in his last fight. He was unable to let his hands go.

    Not that I would be against the fight. I would probably be rather exited for it.

    Exactly, and Ali was already in the early stages of Parkinson’s Disease at that point. It’s pretty poor taste to hold that against a fighter.

    Do you know that meme?

    It describes an emotional rollercoaster of reactions - "nope, well, no, actually though, hmm!"

    Idea isn't that crazy. :thumbsup:
