    :lol: David B got rejected by the Cartels for being too much of a psycho

    I see a cold-blooded assassin in those eyes and he's still only operating on baby strength. It's going to be truly terrifying when he gets his man strength

    Nope, I've always been fairly high on David, I skipped that RBR, I knew I had, but I checked just to make sure. I was watching something else that night, that I cannot recall. He was 19, and at that point already a more complete fighters than some guys near twice his age. He ran into a few style clashes, faced some adversity, and then overcame it. Its that simple IMO.

    If Canelo is so special then why is he fighting Rocky ****ing Fielding?

    It's not a safe bet for me since Canelo is the A-side cash cow. I think Smith would win a 8-4 type decision like the first GGG fight, but I don't know if he'll get the nod. Lara clearly beat Canelo 8-4 or 7-5 at worst and he didn't get the decision. I don't think anyone stops Canelo too, so it's not a safe bet. If we bet on who the majority on here thought won, then I'd take it.

    If Fielding employs real boring tactics of jabbing and moving, I can see Canelo with the size disparity looking dreadful

    Canelo is not beating Smith, he wouldn't get near him. To big and too strong

    Well we know he doesn't have to do as much as other fighters do to get a 9-3 card and I've been saying that way before he was even schedule to fight Golovkin.

    After the first GGG fight, the draw against Mayweather and Lara getting just straight up robbed(There's no way you can give Canelo 9 rounds let alone 7, though I'd pick Canelo now to beat the **** out of Lara), it would just be ******ed to bet against him unless you know he gets stopped.

    Yeah, just like you said GGG TKOs Canelo. LOL

    Also:

    Lmao

    I doubt anyone KO Canelo or even hands him a beating.

    You need to become a fan and appreciate his skill, chin, and heart.
