    1) Kovalev - was my favourite fighter after the Cleverly fight (really couldn't stand Cleverly at the time), thoroughly impressed against ageless wonder B-hop, but lack of commitment to training, the saltiness over the 2nd Ward loss (personally think Kov won the first one but it was razor close), beating women, the comments after the Canelo loss, and now the PEDs

    2) Wilder - the plethora of ridiculous excuses, the "body on my record" talk, firing the only guys that have his best interests at heart, I get the feeling Wilder enjoys being surrounded by yes men and that has really inhibited his progress as a fighter

    3) Loma - bribed judges? Really? What did they do, put the pause button on you for the first half of the fight? I respected his ability to adjust, I respected the fact that he only wanted the good fights, but accept the loss man! Personally can't stand Teofimo López, but he won fair and square in a fight that ended up relatively close considering how it started

    I still disagree about Mikey’s dud. However, I agree with the rest of your points. These fighters won’t be as great as they can be, but it’s because they’re not in control like they think they are. At the end of the day, I don’t blame them for taking the money. Remember, boxing is the only major professional sport that doesn’t provide a pension in retirement.
    Great point about the monopolists running the sport. I’m sure they’d find a way to mess it up even more.

    Wow!!! That’s disgusting. I hope the much humbler Ramirez knocks him off his high horse.

    Boxers that take on past greats and beat on them. Then they act like they beat a prime version.

    As every honest person knows GGG beat Canelo's ass TWICE but got robbed. All anyone says is "Well thats to be expected with Canelo, the NSAC & Vegas boxing officials. Just like it was with Floyd he just isnt going to be allowed to lose there.
    I'm being honest here If God forbid I was in the position Canelo is with everyone condemning him for his dirty tactics, the most important thing would be to fight him again well away from the NSAC & Vegas corruption & try to beat him again , but this time in a fair fight. I'd have too much self respect than to call myself a champion when I know in my heart I dont deserve the title.Canelo has NEVER been the Legitimate World Middleweight champion & you know it

    Only guys who cheated. Steroid abusers like Povetkin or Miller, or loaders like Resto or Margarito. Guys who would cheat and risk hurting or even killing someone else.

    Duckers and the like? Meh. It’s more often the business of boxing rearing it’s ugly head. Most boxers aren’t afraid of other guys, and trust their skills. Only the cheaters, which is why they cheat.
