    Then you really don't know much about boxing if that's the case.

    Nope. Breaseale has twice the heart and power of an ancient Takam.

    Twice the heart ?? Really, I would say Takam showed more heart in his Joshua fight than I have seen in any of Breazedales fights,
    I cannot argue about the power as I don't really know ,but I would argue that Takam is more durable & that is what I base my notion that he has more heart. Breazedale did not show that in his joshua fight or the Wilder fight IMO.

    Yes, Takam has sparring partner mentality and needs to go away. Breazeale tries to win and has big power despite being limited. It sickens me to think of all the match-ups that Takam prevented from happening because he signed up to be a game loser instead.

    Hmm I don't want to take this to off topic, but I seriously doubt that when Takam had the opportunity to win the HW titles that he did not try against Joshua & IMO he certainly tried against Povetkin plus his oposition, Botha, Grant ,Thompson & Parker has been way above that of Breazedales. Breazedale has never put up such an effort, in fact apart from Joshua I cannot see who Breazedale has fought better than Povetkin? Still we dont want to ruin this thread so we will have to agree to disagree no neck ...

    We will have to disagree. At the end of the day, you appear to elevate fighters based off of their loses to fighters who you hero worship, while I am merely a boxing fan.

    As I said I dont want totake this off topic No neck, but at the same time there is no need to get childish with silly comments,. such as Hero worship, grow up. I am not a fan of takam but | cannot see how anyone can really rate Breazedale who to me is 1 step above Martins.
    I leave it there Sonny

    This isn't true. Both guys can win on any given night,the hardest puncher in the division according to most just dropped Breazeale who got up BTW,so why do you guys dismiss these type fighters ?

    A contender is one who is still in the running to make impact, Breazeale is real tough ,he fought dumb ,if I could speak to him he would have an ear full and realize I know what im talking about. How about giving mopre credit to the guy who won ? Its always the challenger sucks ?lol

    he's been begging Eddie Hearn for a top 10 HW..... It's not that Usyk doesn't wanna fight them! it's that THEY don't wanna fight Usyk.. and don't think that Usyk showed everything he had in the ring last night.. he still has those aces up his sleeves. U think if Usyk KO'd CHazz in 1 round it would be easier to get a top 10 opponent? lol..

    Take Kovalev for example, nobody wanted to fight him before his fights with Andre Ward... even after he lost his team struggled to find opponents... it was only after his loss to Eleider Alvarez, that everyone wanted to fight him, from Bivol to even super middleweight Gilberto Ramirez said that he will move up in weight just to fight Kovalev. Why do u think Canelo is fighting Kovalev

    He doesn’t have to do Jack ****, as he is already the WBO mandatory.

    I'd imagine the winner of Ruiz v AJ will be creditable enough..

    Witherspoon, Bellew, Briedis, Gassiev, Huck, Glowacki and Hunter... You know, unify an entire division?
