It's hilarious how you imply other posters' views are driven by emotion and personal attachment. I mean it's very hypocritical, but it's still funny. Hope you are coping better now btw. Sorry about your defeat last night.
Ha! You’ve never seen that fight Mr. Boxrec. Mike wasn’t being thoroughly outboxed at all. You don’t know what on earth you’re talking about. You just type absolute nonsense. Go and watch the fight. Gill Clancy had Mike up 3-1 on the cards. It was a beautiful left hook knockout. Yes, Mike hasn’t got a great JMW resume, but his wins over Curry and Jackson trump anything that Canelo did at the weight, and Mike is up there that highly due to his great ability. Mike had far more ability at JMW than what Canelo had. Do you seriously think that Mike would have lost almost every round to Floyd and have barely beaten Austin Trout? Have a word with yourself.
With every post you make, you just embarrass yourself further. You haven’t even seen the fight. All you’ve done is gone on Boxrec. Mike wasn’t thoroughly outboxed at all. Curry landed a great right hand in the early rounds, but Mike was catching him with great uppercuts and body shots. Again, Clancy had him 3-1 up, and his co-commentator had it 2-2 going into the 5th. If you want to go with official cards, okay. But he still wasn’t being thoroughly outboxed. And you typing that makes me know for a fact that you’ve never seen the fight. You’re a Boxrec warrior. An embarrassment. Implying that Mike just got lucky. You should change your name to No Brain.
You just push whatever narrative you want, including pulling scores out of thin air. Regardless, Curry did almost nothing at 154 and that's one of McCallum's top wins there, so it just shows how thin the top 154 resumes qre.
STFU you clown. I know for a FACT that you haven’t watched that fight. I know, because NOBODY who watched that fight would EVER CLAIM that Mike had been THOROUGHLY OUTBOXED for four rounds. You’ve just handed the proof on a plate to me. You are a joke. Mr Boxrec. This content is protected
Terry Norris was the best or at least one of them He really came thru when he had to! McCallum - Curry: I had the impression Mike was ahead. Curry's eye was closed and even though competitive, seemed pushed to his limits That is why he made that fatal mistake and got caught
I last watched it about a decade ago. I find it comical how you pride yourself at watching YouTube but haven’t attended a big fight or boxed before.
Remember this, Clancy's commentating was done after the result of the fight. I thought it was done before until he talked of the scoring during the fight and other things.. Mike was taking over quite early, which surprised me. He was going to stop Donald in the way he did McCrory had it gone longer. The result just saved Donald a beating. The swelling eye and Mike working him on the inside is what made Donald try and fight on the outside, yet Donald was stepping in and pulling out and surveying his damage with that swollen eye and Mike saw the pull out.
You watched nothing 10 years ago you clown. You’ve pulled the scores off of Boxrec. Nobody could watch that fight and agree that Mike had gotten thoroughly outboxed for four rounds. I posted the video. Go and watch it. Not that I have to justify myself to a donut like you, but I have never wanted to attend a huge fight. I’m content with local, small hall shows. I have sparred, but not against anybody competent. There’s no way on earth that you’ve boxed before. Because you have zero understanding or appreciation of how guys match up on the night stylistically. If you had boxed, that’s the very first thing that you’d note. All you do is debate on statistics. I’ve never once seen you breakdown a fight and compare styles. You are literally one of the most ignorant posters on the entire forum. Your ridiculous statements make me cringe. You’re an absolute embarrassment, as evidenced on this thread. You’ve made a false claim about the McCallum-Curry fight, and you have Canelo as a top 5 JMW, despite the fact that he got washed by Floyd and could barely beat Lara and Trout.
It was a great performance by Mike. Nobody who watched that fight would agree with No Brain that Mike was getting thoroughly outboxed for 4 rounds. That clown has just seen the scores from Boxrec.
If you knew the sport like I do, you'd know that Lara is one of the only guys at 154 to win over ten title fights there and would therefore put proper respect on his name. Maybe you do know his talent and importance at 154, but I think it's well within your reach to lie given that you're pretending to be content with not attending serious boxing matches.
