to be fair to weeks, angulo did not throw a single punch in that entire fight that could have hurt a 15 year old girl and was getting hit with fire the entire time. it stopped being a fight a while ago imo

really don't get where all the khan hate is coming from tbh

He fought so dirty that when he got punched in the balls I, another man, felt no sympathy for him. He fought so dirty that he was the most repulsive character on a card featuring adrien Broner and Floyd Mayweather.

what does this even mean? what is awesome status? how do you qualify for that?


you mean asians yeah? it's ok. you are allowed to say it. khan actually has a pretty big fanbase still in the uk because he's generally in exciting fights, will fight anyone and you have to nail him to the floor to beat him.


yeah it's not like he actually has a really good resume and is a multiple time world champion. he hasn't earnt poo poo. he should earn the floyd fight the hard way like maidana and guerrro did by beating lovely hype jobs.


yeah winning every round with 3 knockdowns what a terrible performance i bet virgil hunter is worried for his job.


what's this got to do with khan? you think if khan had gone out and starched collazo people would not want to see a rematch of a close, exciting fight? (not that 8-4 is really close but whatever) ps maidana's best win is still broner lol so i dunno how exactly you qualify for the 'bad rear end stratosphere.'

on the other hand, people pay for boxing and when people pay money for that thing they explicitly don't want to see what khan showed us on the weekend which negates all those words

That wasn't exactly my meaning, but that's my fault because I didn't word it close to properly.


I thought that I'd read that Kovalev made some racist remarks previously (I believe prior to the Sillakh fight), but upon research found that it was a misinterpretation (according to his manager, anyway). That was the basis of the "piece of poo poo" comparison, with the ring death thrown on top (but I'll freely admit that I didn't know about any of the aftermath of the Simakov fight, and that is some pretty amazing stuff on Sergey's part). I edited out the racist stuff, but left everything else. That was dumb of me, and I apologize if it came off that I was equating the Kovalev and Stevenson.

kovalev would have to publish mein kampf to say something racist enough to be the equivalent of pimping vulnerable, drug addicted women while beating them

Gregor Samsa posted:

I think ggg was left looking for an opponent after Chavez fell through, and they want geale. Negotiations have apparently begun for that, because geale wants to die, but he's still currently set to fight Macklin. That's my rough understanding.

i honestly thought geale was ducking ggg when he chose to relinquish the belt to fight mundine again, but i will never doubt the motherfucker if he's seriously looking to drop a macklin fight for ggg

Yes he definitely did. Which is why it was so odd that he looked like slow horseshit against Canelo.

perhaps something to do with the fact that canelo loving waled on him at full force with an astonishing work rate from the first second until the ref mercy stopped it?
