Am I overrating the third fight with JMM and the first knockdown in the fourth fight too?
Considering Manny re-upped with Top Rank and Danny is an Allah Haymon fighter, that's not going to happen. But here' my thoughts on this fight anyways...
I'm #swiftset through and through, but Manny gives Swift the challenge of his life. Danny hasn't faced anybody like Manny as far as style, speed, and power. But Manny hasn't faced anybody won the level of Danny as far as power is concerned though. Not saying Marquez don't have power, but not on the level of Garcia. Danny won't have to troll his way to a knockout like Bradley's dumb ass. Plus he has a chin, so he can mix it up and fight on the inside and take it outside and counter Manny's shots. Manny's awkward style of punches will give Swift fits in the early rounds, as he is known to be prone to starting slow. But if Swift can weather the storm and time Manny, he has a real shot. And if Manny gets careless, he could easily get left hooked to Bolivia
Gun to my head, I'd choose Manny to win, but I'd be rooting for Danny all the way #swiftset

Brehs, my man was talking about Kassim Ouma giving Golovkin fits, I didn't believe him, but that handspeed was telling. I don't know what to make of this fight
thats why ouma lasted the longest out of GGG's opponents to date..he was giving it to him in the first half of the fight until GGG came back and worked him over....badly

It's just crazy since Ouma is a really good fighter, but also a really undersized middleweight
ouma was good in his prime..that ouma was past it and weeded out..dude should have never fought at 160
this..pac ate that shyt and kept it movin...but ppl act like it was a bomb like the one that dropped junior witter lol

Yea... you definitely are...
But nikkas been underestimating Pac since he left featherweight.. nothing new.. Pac already leveled up his defense and has proven his chin is solid even after the KO.,
But of course nikkas saying Danny Garcia would KO him with a no look hook.. Because in reality, Thats Garcia's only shot, looking for a 1 punch KO without getting fukked up in the process.. LMAO @ Rios not being hurt in that fight too.. Did you not see that motherfukka face??
Rios took a beating, but he is Brandon Rios. Top Rank wasn't shy about calling it a glorified tuneup. I didnt see him lose his legs really and he was just a punching bag. Manny didnt go in for the kill outta compassion and thats a habit hes developed that cant be easy to turn on and off. Id feel more comfortable seein Pac get a TKO on volume and the ref show compassion. Thats his job.

Regardless if it was compassion or not... Rios got his ass whooped 12 rounds straight.Pac didn't take any unnecessary risks, yet was still the agressor. Thats a habit i'm thrilled he picked up... When Manny was kO'ing nikkas, people were saying he was a brainless brawler with no D.... Now Pac is fighting a lot smarter... nikkas wanna say he's too compasionate and lost his killer instinct... Thats bullshyt when a guy like Floyd NEVER goes for a KO, then its "sweet science"... "outclassed"..etc
Yes, you are.
Manny and JMM is 2-2 imo, 1st 2 fights to Manny and 3rd & 4th fight for JMM.
I dont see how anyone can just put Manny as a definite favorite over JMM in their mind (except @Black_Jesus...but he's supposed too because Ima favor AB over anybody regardless too
) and not realizing that, in their 4 fight series, JMM is the one with the momentum now......plus he got them game changing 'roids in his system now
More and more I think about it, I dont mind seeing the 5th fight as long as it's the LAST ONE. I hate leaving things off in a draw or even. Officially, it's 2-1-1 in favor of Manny, but I have it 2-2 because that's what it is imo. I can see JMM outboxing Manny and dropping him once or twice to win a close decision. I can also see Manny blitzing him and dominating him like he did in the 4th....except this time, avoiding getting KOd and winning very convincingly.
They're always gonna be a close match. Im leaning towards JMM in the 5th fight, but as the fight gets closer, I can see switching that opinion.

at somebody asking for Doug's opinion on a mythical match up between Sergio and Wlad. Dougie's Friday mailbag - Ring TV
no worse than somebody making an thread talmbout who would win a fight wlad vs floyd lol
True, but that's a thread though. We already know 70% of cats on boxing message boards don't know shyt about boxing, but to actually spend time asking a real boxing journalist on a match up like that is just
