I thought Matthysse won 2 but people need to stop making it seem like it was a wash. shyt was close.

Abril-Rios is a robbery...

It was close but CLEAR who won, not close as in 'it could go either way'. If it were 12 rounds maybe, but in those 10 rounds, dude got knocked down too.....fukk that, Matthysse got that WORK (from the judges)

I don't know who to root for in Matthysse-Peterson though........I guess Peterson since I've been a fan of his a lot longer :ld:

Bradley got a 1M guarantee to fight Casamayor, then 5M against Manny. It was a brilliant decision on his part, to get more to fight a better fighter.
He'd be favored to beat Khan if they fought lol.


Paris was a shyt prospect. He got dropped and struggled with Tim Coleman lol. He was a fight to build Zab's confidence up.

Judah was getting outboxed by Kaizer Mabuza lol. He hasn't beaten an elite fighter since Cory Spinks, and it's questionable whether Cory was ever elite. He's taken some one sided ass kickings when he stepped up. He's a name and Cannon fodder.

I know that, but you act as if Khan ducked Bradley. THat is factually untrue. Now you want to change the story. Bradley's decision netted him the most money, but that doesnt change the fact that he turned down a $2 mil payday against Khan while you insist Khan ducked him. I am not a Khan fan, I am however a fan of truth.

thank you. I never said Matthysse was trash. Where did I say that? I said he was a good fighter, but you cant consider him A-level if he didnt dominate Judah or Alexander. He has to be on their level or slightly below. If he were clearly better, he wouldve beaten them. Everyone gets bad decisions these days but if the fights arent close it doesnt give the judges a way to give bullshyt decisions without being put on blast. Again, I never said Matthysse was trash.

He started too late in the Judah fight and it could've went either way.....but you are out of your fukking mind if you think Alexander beat Matthysse, I don't care what the three blind fakkits at ringside say :birdman:

breh....I though Matthysse couldve won the fight, thats not my argument here. Lederman scored it 95-94 for Matthysse, Fightnews had the exact same score but in favor of Alexander. the shyt wasnt a wash for either fighter. My point is to say, there is no separation. you cant tell if Matthysse is better than anyone else in the division because honestly, he isnt. All of those guys are on even levels. That doesnt make the division stacked....just competitive. 147 has better fighters that and better paydays. Lastly for the record, I never said 175 was a good division, in fact the whole point of my post about Dawson going to 168 to fight Ward was to imply that there were no good matches to be made at 175.

JMM has fought 2 people at Welterweight Floyd N :deadmanny: two outta those 3 fights been at catchweights breh Not to mention JMM is Still ranked at 140:comeon:

its not hard to get ranked in a division....:ehh:
fact is he fought Fedchenko and Ramos at 140...thats it. any catchweight was over 140, meaning he was fighting at WW. :smh:
why has JMM never fought any names at 140? because there were better paying fights at 135 and 147. I will say it again. You cannot truly count JMM as a junior welter. I dont see how you can do it. His next fight will likely be at WW as well.

He called Khan out but Khan fought Maidana. Cool. No one should be saying Bradley ducked him, when he chose not to fight him in the same manner Khan chose to fight Maidana instead.

if anything, they ducked each other, but there really isnt much evidence to that on Khan's side. Bradley clearly rejected a fight with Khan. It was a smart move but to say Khan ducked Bradley is untrue. To say Bradley ducked Khan is absolutely true regardless of why he did it!

short version: Khan wanted to fight Maidana (Maidana was interim champ to Khan's belt) Maidana was supposed to fight Bradley but Maidana kept pulling out so Bradley fought Abregu. Khan said after he defended against Maidana (an obligation that was MANDATED) he would fight the winner of Bradley-Alexander. Bradley beat Alexander, rejected the fight with Khan, signed with TR and the rest is history. Now if Bradley had stayed with GSP, he wouldve fought Khan, but it didnt work out that way, he wanted to sign with TR because they were looking for someone to feed to Pac just like they tried to feed Zahir Raheem to Morales! and history ended up repeating itself.

Khan really had nowhere to run because he had to defend against either Maidana or Bradley had Bradley beat Maidana. Now you answer this....why would Khan allow his title to be stripped when he had already agreed to fight the winner of Bradley-Alexander AFTER his mandatory was fulfilled? Bradley cheated us out of seeing the first undisputed 140lb champ since Tszyu. I aint mad at him but truth is truth.

from the home of coca-cola, i'm not referring to s
Arum is a vomitous old c*nt and the sooner he is removed from the equation the better off boxing will be.


:pacspit:

Don't you ever disrespect the Bobfather like that fakkit.. Bob had blessed us with countless great fights over the years, you should be smacked on sight...

You want boxing to be better off then take bytchoyd "Look At Me, Im My Own Promoter" Duckweather out the equation..because he's the catalyst that fukked up boxing

I agree, as much bad the Bobfather and DK has done for boxing, they have done even more good for it, like it or not. Its frauds like GBP that come in trying to "run the dinosaurs" out as they put it...because they are bad for boxing....only so they can do the same thing.

You really are obsessed with Floyd Mayweather aren't you? I mean you can criticize Floyd on a ton of shyt but to say he is the "catalyst that fukked up boxing"? :wtb:

And I stand by my statement...Arum is an old c*nt who is only slightly less of an a$$hole than Don King.
