    Povetkin. He should just hang his head in shame when he walks to the ring with that fake belt.

    Alvarez vs Hatton is the absolute worst. Hatton wasn't even a top 20 WW....how the **** does he get to fight for a vacant belt at JMW whenhe's never fought there and wasn't even qualified to fight for a belt at WW!!! Pathetic....the WBC were basically saying "we are giving Canelo the belt no matter who he fights next as long as he wins"

    That fight wouldn't have been good enough for the USBA belt 10 years ago

    Hmm. Thought it was a catchweight between super middle and light heavv. But as it wasnt, it just makes it even more shambolic that SRL won titles in two dvisions that night :deal

    Agree that it's Povetkin. Nothing could be more manufactured than sliding the real champion (Wlad) to "super champion" and then having two guys who would have no chance against Wlad fight each other.

    Thats pretty harsh calling somebody who was 29-2 a journeyman.

    DLH going up to middleweight to fight a relative unknown in Sturm.

    Them proceeding to get jabbed to death and needing shady judging to keep the BHOP fight alive.

    I was sick to my stomach that night. :barf

    Typical DLH. Either cherry picking, or needing the benefit of the doubt in close decisions.

    Glad to see it backfire against Pacquiao, I savored every one of those thousand left hands.

    Pac 8th world title... 154 at 150 against non ranked opponent


    canelo 154 title at 150, against non ranked opponent.

    Morales 4th title was BS, I was ready to give full credit with Mathysse, so he better defend it against a top ranked 140 pounder or It will never mean anything.


    all business moves that real fans disregard. It's all hype to make a fighter more famous and special.
