    LOL when you see Inoue being wrapped like that, do those look normal to you?

    Love Inoue but feel he has his work cut out here.Just hope he wins fair and square and Fulton doesn`t get robbed.Boxing really does not need another controversial decision

    Same. But on some level, maybe due to his struggles against Castano, he doesn't have much confidence fighting a guy with a similar style with more power. So he's cashing out instead.

    It sucks honestly because now the people who discredit him now are going with the narrative that he ducked Tyszu by fighting the bigger name for a bigger purse. It's ridiculous.

    Plus the Canelo loss has a built in excuse with the weight jump. He can always say "He only beat me cause I was outside of my weight class." It wouldn't necessarily be true, but I wouldn't be surprised if it comes up.

    So basically,
    Tim - Possible loss, low payday (by comparison), no excuses
    Canelo - Almost certain loss, likely career high payday, built in excuse

    Can't say I blame him honestly. Disappointed as a fan but I get it, he's looking out for his best interests.

    Yes he struggled mightily against Castaño the first time, but he improved a lot in the rematch. If he fights Canelo how he did Castaño in the rematch, if he comes in that motivated, to box, to jab and use his skills rather than just trying to load up with a single shot and giving away rounds, I think he has a chance. mainly because, he has better stamina and conditioning than Canelo, has a good jab, good hand and foot speed. Jermell really doesn't have any glaring weaknessess.

    Y'know if you guys can fit in a replay of a full boxing match, even one that ended by round 2 KO, you might not have rationed your time out right :lol:

    Any prize fighter would do the same. He's a mandatory, plenty of champions passed on their Mando to fight bigger fights.
