    You think you're calling somebody for needlessly hating the Charlos because you think everyone has an underlying agenda.

    despite knocking lee down twice he looked like dog **** and needed the knockdowns to win on the cards.
    he looked great vs lemieux I'll give him that.

    Lee,Lemieux, Eubank, Ryder, O'Sullivan, Monroe and Akarov makes a decent resume.

    Not P4P or anything but solid.

    Andrade would have added a lot to it but the "nasal spray" got in the way.

    I personally dont think he'd have beaten Andrade anyway

    in every sense of the word. physically, mentally, technically. every fighter has weaknesses, but even the level of canelos weakness would be a strength to the average fighter. hes not nearly the best ever, but hes the best right now.

    BJS 2.0 only used to train on public holidays back then and Lee was coming of a draw against Peter Chocolate whom he dropped and a stoppage win over a way better closer to prime version of Korobov than the way past his best inactive version who was robbed against Jermallo and who literally hadn't fought anyone with a pulse in four years and had only fought once in 25 months, a six rounder against a tomato can who was 2-11 in their last 13 fights and had been stopped in 9 of those 11 losses. FTR, Korobov couldn't stop them.

    To be fair, he was honest about his chances against GGG in his prime. I think he could actually beat GGG at this point though if he wanted to.

    I'd love to see Saunders fight Korobov if Korobov could somehow manage to stay injury free the whole fight.
