Just gutted. Great puncher, very good fighter...great guy by all accounts. Thank you Earnie for so many great memories...even knocking out my man...
Holmes in my view would outclass Coetzee; too slick, too tough mentally, too much movement, too good a jab. A stoppage in about 8-10 rounds is my...
There was something not right about the scoring. Draws in unification fights suit the promoters & the sanctioning bodies. In the event of a draw...

Evem allowing for the favours Canelo has received, he is still "better" than Eubank. Being P4P nowadays is in my opinion much easier today than in...
