First Mexican Heavyweight Andy Ruiz

One of the biggest upsets in boxing history, Andy Ruiz stops undefeated Anthony Joshua, 22 wins with 21 KOs. I have to be honest I am one of the many who didn't think Ruiz was going to win. Much respect to Anthony Joshua for getting up each time he was dropped. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQ4P1y...

Re: GGG vs Canelo Alvarez 2

more money for the third and final fight. 2nd fight GGG was able to negotiate more $$ because he retained his belts and he still had ZERO losses on his record. Also the boxing fans were demanding a re match. If there's a third fight, Canelo is going to dictate the terms of the split and I'm sure GG...

Good I'm not the only one. So many people feel as though GGG was robbed but I didn't see it that way and like I mentioned before not really an Alvarez fan. If there's a 3 fight who do you think will take win? I think Canelo only gets better. I forgot to mention that GGG land some heavy punches on Ca...

Re: Boxers

All three sound good to me. Crawford, Lomachenko are tied then I would say Spence.

Some where down the line Crawford and Spence will meet up. As of now I give Spence the edge being that he is the naturally bigger man but in time Bud can grow into that weight.

GGG vs Canelo Alvarez 2

Where are all the boxing fans at ? I'm surprised no one else has started a thread on this yet. First fight I thought GGG won. Alvarez had his moments and was sneaking in some nice body punches but his stamina was lacking. To conserve his energy he would only fight in spurts. I hate when I hear about...

Good post Oso. Boxing is nowhere near dead.

Mid-level boxers make more in one fight then top level MMA guys do in years of fighting. Flo...

There's only ONE meaningful punch that comes to mind that JCC Jr. through, and that was a left hook to the body. All the other punches, and there was not many, he threw were slow. So slow Canelo could have countered him more often. I have never seen JCC Jr. fight so poorly. Margarito, at least made ...

Re: Danny Garcia v. Keith Thurman

The catch weight and being a more skilled fighter favors Canelo. He will win by UD or late TKO. David Lemieux (KO artist) will fight on the undercard of Canelo vs Chavez. If he wins and Canelo wins there is talk that they will fight each other next. Lemieux fought and lost via TKO against GGG. Way b...

Re: Mayweather v. Berto

Thurman and Garcia are both undefeated a win against one of them would look good on Floyd's record.

Amir Khan doesn't have the UK fan base that Ricky Hatton had, but I would think a fight with him would make more sense financial wise then Thurman or Garcia.

Re: Mayweather v. Berto

Mayweather vs Berto is garbage. Mayweather has one more fight on his contract and he want's an easy opponent.

I like Berto, he's entertaining but he has no business fighting Floyd.

And this is just my opinion, at 160/154 lbs a fight between GGG and Floyd will never take place.

Re: Alvarez vs Kirkland

Chavez Jr last fight was at 175? And Canelo fights at 154. Can Chavez Jr even make 160 comfortably? Is Alvarez willing to move up to 160 now?

If it's about money, which I believe Cotto is all about since he's at the end of his career, he and Alvarez should fight each other next.
