Essential The Official Boxing Random Thoughts Thread...All boxing heads ENTER.

[George's Dilemma]

Floyd fought 16 world Champs back to back. He fought Canelo, Maidana 2x and Pacquaio back to back to back to back. Fighting Berto was consolation for that tough road in his mid to late 30s. Come on now.

Floyd's actions I don't criticize, but what these fighters are doing now is imitating the latter part of his career.

Heavyweight division got ruined yesterday. All the classics we should have had with AJ/Wilder/Fury and now it's all in the toilet. When they fight each other it ultimately won't matter anymore. Sometimes I really hate boxing

wilder is a paper champion...

Not that he did anything wrong, but heavy emphasis on that zero even if it meant fighting Berto types to keep it definitely affected the culture. Porter was out there, Thurman was out there, Garcia was out there, etc. Let's be honest too, to a lot of casuals Floyd was boring. They were tuning in to see if he'd finally lose. It became a marketing tool. Calling himself the best ever, we know its nonsense, but people eat that up. That wasnt lost on these networks promoters, and younger fighters in tune with social media.

He is the best ever. And I have no problem with whom he fought. Berto was questionable considering when, but that's pretty much it. Stop hating

Tuesday night fights used to be a thing, Tuesday night fights on USA.
ESPN even had a few Tuesday and Wednesday night fights.

No he is not. Wtf are you talking about? A paper champion is a champion that is awarded a belt. He won the WBC championship against Stiverne. Yall say dumb shyt man.

Is it Floyd or the boxing scene in general?

Boxing scene. I have no criticism towards Floyd.

Boxing scene. I have no criticism towards Floyd.

Was Floyd responsible for putting such an emphasis on being undefeated? Yes. Is it his fault people followed in his steps with his marketing? No. And this isn't even boxers, but promoters.

Munguia too good these days for him though.

Rosado was done after GGG.

Heart of a lion, body of a degenerate and synapses of a fighter that should have retired 3 years ago.
