Virgil Hunter: What Canelo is Doing is a Mockery To Boxing!

well at least you remember me...i dont remember who you are

 

Spot On

 

it was against liam smith and prob shouldnt have even been a ppv anyway......you guys are deperately reaching....you guys love to preach about what a star ggg is and how he sells out arenas....but now you dont even wanna acknowledge canelo as a star? lol.....cmon man....canelo the biggest in boxing sans pac...although he might actually be on an even level with him now....

 

This is the trainer of the guy that fought the whole Super Six in the USA.

 

i do love how people slam ward for this.....as if at any point the tournament was threatned because ward wanted to fight in oakland......if people are willing to give in to you and let you do what you want to do or what makes you comfortable ...are you not going to accept that? are you going out of your way to make things more difficult for yourself just to shut a few boxing forum haters up? "hmmmm maybe i should ask if i can have this fight in orlando instead of oakland...this should shut the ESB haters up real good"....

 

He actually didn't fight in Oakland the whole thing. But he did do it in the USA. 2 in Oakland. It was supposed to be home and away. It hurts the legitimacy of it. Sorry you can't see that. Virgil is mad Khan got KTFO, period. He has Ward, an annoying prima donna. He needs to keep quiet about this type of stuff because it makes him look hypocritical.

 

"it hurts the legitimacy of it"....nah it doesnt....no one complained.....the abraham fight was actually in LA and ward was booed....the armenians were out for abraham.....froch was in AC....froch had no qualms with it....home cooking never came into play....its just more sour grapes from a bunch of race/national fanboys who cant handle wards success...."hey ward...please travel somewhere to fight in order to please us even if no one demands you do"

 

And you are just a blind Ward fanboy obsessed with blacks. See I can do the same thing.

All fighters except him, traveled. It hurts the credibility of the tournament. Dirrell fought in Nottingham, Froch in Denmark, Artur in the US, Froch in the US, Taylor in Germany, etc, etc. Ward? Oakland or somewhere else in the US.

Won't waste my time with you anymore.

 

Where have I ever said it should be 60/40? Even better where have I ever even discussed the purse split? I don't give two shits about how much money a fighter makes. What do I benefit from how much money a fighter makes? It is you who obsessed with purse splits. Canelo is not a cash cow. He has a fan base because of the country he is from. That is it. The guy isn't interested in fighting GGG or he would have done it when GGG was his Mandatory and the fight was simple to make. Furthermore I didn't buy GGG's PPV against Lemieux and I not buying the Jacobs fight. Some huge fan I must be. Those are NOT PPV worthy fights. If Canelo was a cash cow he would have sold more than 250K PPV's no matter who he fights like Tyson used to do. People are not buying Canelo anymore since the GGG duck. Only his delusional Hispanic fans are which does NOT make him the face of Boxing nor a 'cash cow'. Sorry.

 

i could care less about purse splits or money...but its part of the business side of this sport so its discussed....lol at you guys desperate to try and paint a picture where canelo isnt a star or a seller.....lmao....desperation man...its sad

 

Well for one he only had one fight as a title holder vs a guy 1 division smaller so 155 isn't bad there and to me it's a mixed bag, Cotto was the champ and is the reason that fight was at 155 can't really blame someone who's never really moved up for not wanting to move up yet.

If Degale offered to fight GGG at 161/2 And put his 168 title on the line, and GGG won I don't think you could really argue GGG saying he's not a SMW.

 

lmao....please dont waste your time with me....its not worth him....you are an idiot

homecooking never came into play in ANY of wards fights....not even close....can we say the same about froch/dirrell? nope.....thats a highly disputed decision......furthermore ward didnt HAVE to leave ....the tournament still went off rather easily......why would ward make things harder on himself if he doesnt have to? why would anyone?

literally no one complained about the legitimacy of this tournament....no one...with the exception of some desperate EE fanboys who hate black american fighters that are successful....lmao.....you guys are a sad lot

 

Nationalism doesn't make someone a star. Canelo was completely schooled in his biggest fight. Lost 11-1 on any sane scorecard (meaning not Oscar's bought and paid for scorecard that was a ridiculous draw).

When Canelo gets KOed by GGG he has nowhere to go. He would have lost his two biggest fights and there are no options after a GGG fight for him if he loses. That is what scares Oscar to death. Do you understand this?

 

i understand canelo is 26...has a pretty darn good resume already...and makes alot of money

i understand that ggg is 35 with no resume....and is a cult hero that had to travel to the UK to fight a welterweight to make real money

thats just facts...thats what i know......now what are you about?

 

let me just clarify something for you GGG fanboys

i dont really care about purse splits...you might like to think I do because you need that to try to make an argument

but when YOU...yes, YOU, try to make an argument that canelo ISNT a star? well then you are basically implying that the money in a potential canelo/ggg fight should be split close to evenly....even though no money metric would ever suggest that........so you are here saying things like "canelo aint really a star"...now i dont care about who gets what money in this fight.....but you are suggesting that it should be close to even when you say "canelo aint a star"....and nothing you can show me suggests he isnt
