    When GGG was being rumored to fight Murata next, Canelo fans were labeling it a cherry pick.

    Canelo could fight anyone, literally anyone, and the Canelo nut huggers will celebrate his bravery. It’s funny to watch but they aren’t much worse than the other nut huggers. This fight is a total joke. I was hoping for BJS even though he hasn’t looked good lately. The potential is at least there for a decent matchup. This fight is just an exhibition. Easy money for Canelo.

    The guy is the biggest draw in boxing and this is the fight he picks? I hope not.

    Canelo should just fight GGG again if he is not going to give BJS , boo boo or charlo a chance.

    Not a big fan of this fight, I can think of at least 5 other fights I 'd like for Canelo to make instead of this one.

    Canelo said he always wanted to fight in Japan so it seems like he will now just be going through his bucket list.

    Ideally Canelo fights Murata, GGG and then Conor McGregor/Pacquiao lol.

    Then the British chumpions will have to fight Anthony Sims Jr a rookie American kid who will decapitate them for peanuts and then we can all laugh at those cheating druggies.

    That's my ideal, I hope none get a Canelo payday tbh, even though it would come with an absolute ass whooping.

    Sims Jr will give them the same ass whooping for 1/1000th of the purse.

    I mean if Coceres and Ryder are giving U the business so can another 1000 blokes

    Wait? I thought you were this big fanboy of Callum Smith, Ryder also gave him the business. Does that mean Callum Smith is a shitheap bum too according to you? Saunders also beat the love of your life, Livingstone. Is Livingstone ****?

    Oh, I see, you've moved your erotic obsessions over to Sims, you do know that @Serge @IntentionalButt and I are also his fanboys right?Hopefully that turns you off to him, because I hate the idea of you liking a fighter I like.

    Saunders dominates Sims for the record. Also, Coceres had never lost, I was impressed enough that I did a thread on him 5 years ago. He stagnated as sadly many Argentine fighters tend to do, but the fact that he hasn't picked up an L while fighting exclusively in Argentina, means he's quality, because YOU WILL get found out if you aren't quality by what many of you casual fanboys deem cab drivers down there. Because those cab drivers are a bunch of heavy handed, tough as nails, durable mother****ers. So let's wait to see Coceres fight another decent fighter at world level before dismissing him. After all, you don't want to end up looking like an ass again do you? You never know, he might go on a Livingstone like winning streak.

    The thing about those "Argentinian cab drivers" is that they actually show up to win. They don´t get paid to loose. They actually need to win to make some money.
    It´s similar to the Japanese. I remember Ogawa being treated as a someone who just padded his record in Japan. In reality he had been matched though from the first fight on. Winning the Japanese title can be quite difficult. Holding onto it is impressive.
    And often those guys who get to the JBC title are good enough to easily compete at world level.

    Decent fight. There are better ones to be made but I still think it's fine. Murata-GGG is a BETTER fight IMO purely owing to the clash of styles

    British chumpions? Still salty about CEJ not managing to step up to world level and win?

    Saunders is a bum and Jr was robbed
    Ryder gave Smith a beating, also got robbed against Saunders.

    I don't care who is a Sims fan boy, he is a matchroom fighter so should have a good chance at getting those fights.

    Id rather someone deserving have the belts tbh.

    Saunders and Smith are illegitimate champs. Saunders never beat anyone and got a shot at a scrub in his 1st fight at the weight (coming off a drugs ban). Can't call him a champ until he fights someone legit.

    Smith got an ass whooping so can't call him a champ. Ffs Jr did better against Groves.

    It's been established, you can't score for ****, when it comes to fighters you don't like.

    And it's official, you're completely deranged. Jr lost almost every round and was arguably dropped twice against Groves, and rightfully lost a wide decision. Callum was competitive throughout and violently KO'd Groves. Are you okay? You sound delusional.
