The rumor is that Khan is a possible opponent for Floyd's next fight. I'm sorry, I just cant fukk with Floyd anymore. I respect his skill but his choice of opponents are underwhelming.
I haven't even seen the Guerrero fight because in all honesty, "what's the point?"
theres no one for him to fight. You losers want canelo as if it would'nt be the same shyt :laff:

Why he wanna do that again. Hopkins cleaned the floor with him the first time. Tarver is a good puncher but will never be a great boxer and he struggles against great boxers in the middle of the ring. He's already an afterthought. Fighting Hopkins again will make him completely obsolete.

I wouldnt say he is not a great boxer and struggles against boxers. I think he is an excellent boxer but he struggles against MOVERS. He can box and has a great IQ, his problem is....he is a pure counterpuncher. He needs someone to really come after him. He really isnt that much of a puncher...he just catches guys with great counters.

Harding fukked him up and was really givin him work in the rematch and walked into a counterpunch that he couldnt recover from.

If Roy wouldve came to Tarver, he'd got KOed all 3 times probably. I am not saying Tarver's punch was lucky, but Roy had slowed down by then. B-Hop is a boxer/mover and a good counterpuncher. He will always be a problem for Tarver unless Tarver can mount a decent offense and keep his hands moving. At his age and his conditioning history, I dont think he can do that against Bernard.

Pacman
Prime Cotto
Margarito
Paul Williams
Sergio Martinez


You can now add Canelo on that list. Enjoy watching the coward beat up c level fighters and while you beat off calling him the "the goat".:wrist:

Lol no one to fight. Maybe if he didn't hide like a bytch he'd fight someone worthy.

that did it. now I know :udontknow:

Oscar is a Mexican American. Do you know how many Mexicans hate Oscar??? He has a good size Mexican following but not like the guys I mentioned. Oscar effectively became a crossover star in America with casual boxing fans and women. He tried hard, but real Mexican fans wont forgive him from beating up on JCC, possibly the most beloved and popular fighter to come out of Mexico.

Answer this. If Oscar is the biggest draw, then tell me why he only has one fight on the Mexican Netflix region? The only fight he has is the one against Chavez. Chavez has documentaries on there. All of JMM's big fights, Morales, and Barrera's are on there. Floyd and Pac appear on there once....against JMM. Oscar is a crossover star that alienated much of his Mexican fan base. Most of them believe him to be a phony, arrogant, self-centered a$$hole who only acknowledged his heritage when it was convenient. To them, he is a cac with Mexican blood.

this is a dissertation a guy wrote on "Why Mexicans Hate Oscar..."

Mexicans started to see that De La Hoya portrayed his Mexicanity only when convenient, specially prior to his fights, and his management was more preoccupied on gaining this community for the money they could generate as a boxing market rather than for building De La Hoya’s credibility. De La Hoya never embraced this community in obvious manners and he found rejection as reciprocal reaction.

Why Mexicans Hate Oscar De La Hoya | Israel's House of Madness

if he is the largest drawer of Mexican fans, its because they wanted to see him get his ass kicked and watch cacs take a dump on him.

:dead: @ you jumping the gun so hard on word phrasing..
I was saying out of all the other Mexican fighters Oscar has the biggest drawing power... lol @ a Mexican American :heh: the nikka a Mexican breh.. guess I don't know shyt about Mexicans... Maybe because im black... I give ZERO fukks about who Mexicans love or hate

This Jose Gonzalez is Puerto Rican and 22(17)-0, why haven't I heard of him? Guess they don't think he's special, or he's signed with the wrong promoter

Right, I read yesterday that they may use VADA, then read today that it was confirmed. Manny wants a test (maybe because he got the Holy Ghost recently?) but Bob dont want to do USADA because they "close" with GBP.

This circus is full of clowns.
:putamadre:

Honestly Im not seeing how VADA and USADA differ besides what Arum is saying about GB.... does Arum have some kinda connection to VADA??
