    Pacquiao-Marquez IV. Marquez, with the bridge of his nose shattered and made to do a small chicken dance from a body shot, was on his way out before he detonated that right hand.

    Maidana was great, add Floyd first bout to the list

    His work rate for a raw thudding puncher from all ranges was out of the ordinary. Floyd underestimated him, He must be thankful he paid off the gloves. The type of things that take away Floyd's ability to be as great as he thinks he is. He trapped himself in a corner with Khan & Maidana and obviously chose the guy on paper who should have been easier.

    Danny Jacobs vs GGG.

    I know this forum is like a GGG fan club but GGG getting an undeserved wide UD against Jacobs in such a close fight in Jacobs own hometown of NYC shows GGG gets gift decisions, even though GGG fans accuse Canelo of having the judges in his pocket.
