    won't affect my life in the slightest missing it. all sports are rigged. they are just there to distract you from things that actually matter.

    Hard to imagine anyone trying to walk Canelo down without getting blasted by a barrage of combinations. He might not be a one-punch knockout artist but allowing him to string together too many combos isn't a good idea. Might open up a cut which might mean a loss by TKO.

    Agree on the last part. If you really want to know what's happening, check the business pages and the government gazette. We don't even feel the ass pounding we're getting while we're sitting on the couch cheering some guys chasing a little ball.

    Sometimes being distracted that way is a good thing. I remember that I spent the Cuban Missile Crisis totally absorbed in playing in a rock band and only learned years later just how dangerously close we all had been to getting incinerated while singing Wooly Bully.

    Meanwhile everyone else was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Some had even prepared to dive into their cellar bomb shelters. Heh heh! So distraction does have its plusses.

    You're on a boxing forum being distracted from "what actually matters" FFS, at least be a little more selective in the quality of your entertainment.

    Absolutamundo! Pre-natal oblivion is the panacea for all existential worries.

    But if they are behemoths then your attention is riveted to the screen? Why?

    little guys rarely have ko's. being 6'1" i also have little interest in watching guys fight i could swat like a fly. just my opinion on it. i'll watch international soccer, but would rather die than watch club teams. just my view of the world.

    Do you feel you could have swatted 5'11" tall 182 pound Marciano like a fly? I mean, that isn't exactly what most people consider to be big. I think you would have a better chance against 6' 6'' tall 267-pound Primo Carnera.

    Two years ago you were reading that people were saying Canelo would wait til he was 35. Considering there are a lot of people saying GGG would knock our Canelo right now I;m going to guess the ones complaining right now are the ones from back then.

    Basically you're just looking for posts that support your braindead theory.

    So, have you already seen Byrd and Moretti's cards? They have already filled them out for Alvarez, they will give him every round...................Bayless will stop the fight several times if Alvarez gets hurt, the fix is in..................remember the fight costs $80, with no undercard, well...............perhaps a few winos drunk on the canvas, so we have one fight to watch and Byrd and Moretti will steal that..........................

    wtf are you defining as elite, more like. I'd admit hes on the way to building a case for elite, that I have no trouble with. but its a good way off yet. His win over Quillin is a statement of intent.

    Being largely undefeated is not the same thing as being elite.
