    Berchelt ran far more against Miura than Floyd did against Canelo, and the Mexicans booed him lol. Floyd walked Canelo down. It's funny how they pick and choose when movement is ok. Great performance by Berchelt though but gotta call out the double standards.

    I feel you bro. Mexicans booed the **** out of Lara against Canelo and anytime a non-mexican fighter uses movement. Berchelt had great movement and did what he had to do to win, but the double standards from these Mexicans fans who cry about fighters running is insane. You know if Miura fought like berchelt theyd be booing like crazy.

    Well in Berchelt's defense, Miura is a murderous puncher and was giving him reason to run, what the hell did Canelo do to actually provoke something like that from Floyd?

    You know Mexicans boo like crazy anytime a boxer uses movement like Berchelt did. But since it was their guy, movement was okay and they were chanting Mehico instead of booing lol.

    No like Floyd against another relentless come forward fighter. He wasn't standing still in front of Maidana was he?

    I don't give a damn what the Mexicans booed or didn't boo for, Berchelt is class and a brilliant fighter, and just put on a masterclass, Blizzy of all people really shouldn't be throwing off on him because he didn't want to stand and trade with ****ing Miura.:lol:

    You know Miura as well as I do, he's not to be ****ed with.:deal:

    Beterbiev would stop both brutally. Though Smith and Barrera do have punchers chances.

    For a 'mover' Berchelt sure stopped and threw a lot.

    I actually thought if he stood in traded it would have been Vargas/Berchelt 2. But it would have opened him to getting stopped too. He fought a smart fight. Miura is too basic can't really say he's brilliant yet. Miura literally has 3 punches. The right hook, left straight to the head/body. I'd pick Tank to stop him.

    Exactly. I respect him as a fighter, but I know he has dog in him. My mind will change only when I see him in a true war where he isn't clearly the bigger man and he has taken hella punishment.

    I agree with everything except for Tank stopping him, I think the opposite would happen.
