    He didnt literally lift him off his feet. There was no levitation. But he rocked Golovkin with an uppercut that almost had him coming out of his boots. You knew what I meant but you are playing dumb and arguing in literal terms because you know Im right and how dumb you sound. And Brook is no 160lb fighter my son.

    Wasn't that the bout after which GGG claimed that he let himself get hit in order to entertain the fans?

    Something like that.

    So now you have GGG and his fans claiming he got hit on "purpose". But this one guy cant fathom how Brook could have been up on a card/cards at time of stoppage. More stuff that just dont add up.

    so don't exaggerate when making your point, it's gonna attract unwanted attention if it's not accurate. I don't care if he weighs 147 or 160 I'm simply stating it's physically impossible for fighters to do that to each other. Yes there are fans that think this can happen. And last but not least, he didn't have him coming out of his boots either

    Op may be talking about this one. I e seen some pics from diff angle where it shows GGG on the tip of his toes; hense, the reason why those statements of "being lifted off the ground" get made.

    Compubox does not guarantee a win nowadays, it is the judges.

    Australia market expansion, young star with upside. I can see lots of benefits in Horn winning. In fact, i was rooting for a Horn KO as it would have been great for boxing.

    Im from the UK and we are definitely a home town fighter country, if our fighters don't hit the canvas and look competitive then we definitively give it to our guy.

    However the home of neutral boxing 'The USA' has now become worse than Germany.

    Maybe they really believe their own decisions are legit? The human mind can play those kinds of tricks on itself.

    I think he was just using hyperbole.

    Rocky lifted Apollo Creed off his feet a couple times with body uppercuts.

    Still was on my favorite uppercuts!
    Canelo has a much more dangerous inside uppercut and loves to throw it without caution
