Opetaia edged for me, got to say I'm very impressed by his heart and fight. Briedis too, unfortunately for him he's lost a step and that would've...
I would say yes. Everyone who fights Beterbiev is immediately thrown into deep waters by his power, and I haven't forgotten how Usyk found his...
While I have the highest respect for Bivol, Beterbiev would be my pick, too big and too strong. It would look like Gvozdyk Vs Beterbiev except...
I'll be rooting for Spence, but this is a genuine concern and one of the reasons I pick Crawford to win. I'm surprised that the odds are actually...
Golovkin has quite a different style to Gvozdyk and importantly, he has a much better chin and reacts much better to being hit. That was always...
Prime for prime I'd agree, but it would have been an old Pacquiao if the fight had happened say instead of the GGG fight. That Pac could struggle...
Admittedly a bit late, but still very excited for this one if it finally happens!! Crawford by close but clear decision for me, but I'm more of a...
I agree on the first, would agree with the second minus the "battering" part (Usyk and a peak Fury are good enough not to get battered, these are...
Golovkin. It doesn't really matter who you had winning the Canelo fights, Canelo is on his resume (and vice versa) because they fought twice and...
Looking at the NZ boxing forums, this is almost certainly a collapse of negotiations rather than anything to do with Andy Lee's wife. In fact two...
Basically this. Floyd had the chance to fight for undisputed WW in 2015 after beating Pacquaio, (he could have fought Brook if he wanted it -...
If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck ....
Excellent post.
Hearn is talking about Buatsi though, which is much less good a fight.
I get your point but technically Yildirim wouldn't be, like you said he's a bum. Also Fielding wasn't a real 168 champion. However I generally...
Agreed on all counts. Still, Ramirez is a decent fight too.
He got a bit overhyped after his surprise bronze medal IMHO, but all in all he's still a solid boxer and I think he will get past Richards.
I definitely expect him to knock out GGG if they fight again.
Exactly. And Makabu is younger and hits harder than almost all LHWs.
I like Stanionis, but I have to pick Ennis here - he's just too good I think, which is high praise as Stanionis is a fine fighter too.
Yes, doesn't actually make my top 5 but deserves an honourable mention for sure!
He'd be the underdog against Makabu to be honest.
Someone's forgotten that even by the official cards, the first fight was a draw. I guess GGG got robbed so badly by the judges that it feels like...
Yes, terrible scores indeed. There should be more complaints about such a ridiculous card.
Yeah, the only champion he'd have any chance against is Makabu but he wouldn't be able to stand up to Makabu's power over 12 rounds. While in...
