Man I forgot I even made this thread, cool nice to see some fans here! First things first, I don't know if I dislike Khan but I certainly don't rate him highly, he has had some good fights but that glass jaw had always will be his Achilles heel. I think he has a bit of an unjustified arrogance about tbh, I know charisma sells fights as well skill but I just have never ever thought he was that good.
Watched the fight and thought it was pretty obvious he couldn't keep the intensity up of the first two rounds. Think it was a stupid idea to step up to that weight as khan just doesn't have the punching power to match that speed. Anyway hopefully this means he now fight Kell Brook who for some reason he's been ducking for the past three four years. Kell will destroy Khan and get the recognition he deserves.
Everyone is saying Alvarez should fight golovkin, which tbh he probably should but for those who don't know mark my words when I say Callum smith will be one of the best pound for pound fighters in the next two years. There are so many good match ups at this weight tho, degale is no slouch and has already put feelers out there for golovkin. But I promise you no one wants any part of Callum smith

By DY_nasty Go To PostCanelo's really impressed me but I think he wants no parts of Golovkin
Not right no, I think GGG is looking at fighting degale or billy Joe Saunders next who he should best. I think Canelo needs to go against someone who is really going to put him through the paces to have good prep for Golovkin.
I watched that Canelo Mayweather fight. Mayweather made him look like an absolute amateur. He couldn't land anything on him.
Watching him beat everyone else since and before shows me just how great Mayweather was.

Sooo Eubanks Jr. Looks pretty tasty, he's going to get rocked by GG if he does fight him but I'm impressed by his appetite for these fights, although his dad needs to stop the PR.
Groves, good fight, great fight. I just think the step up too world class opposition is going to be too much for him.
Ben, better fight, needs more experience imo.
Common AJ

By Killer7 Go To PostAJ is legit.
Credit to his opponent. Took some shots but it was too much.
17w - 17KOs.
Personally probably my second most hyped fighter after smith.
By Zeus Ex Machina Go To PostWho do you guys thinks wins the Thurman vs Porter fight?
Thurman should do it, a lot my friends think he's over rated
By Kidjr Go To PostThurman should do it, a lot my friends think he's over rated
Boom
AJ boxed well and i think he'll go on to dominate the division but if I was him I'd want no part of David Haye any time soon.

Is haye that much quicker? I mean I dunno, aj is frieghteningly good
Do u know what's really pissing me off about that whole
division is why the fuck is kell brook being ducked.
Fuck Garcia
Thurman vs Brook is what needs to happen.
Ofc it won't, because no one wants to fight him.
Eddie Hearn pls.

By Kidjr Go To PostIs haye that much quicker? I mean I dunno, aj is frieghteningly good
Haye is quick. He still has crusier speed with Heavyweight power. AJ's footwork is sluggish and Haye will be able to move out the way of his left jab right hand combo and it would be a case of picking him off. Of course AJ could land something and stop him or at least slow him down, but were AJ is now I'd be avoiding Haye.
Haye has always looked decent against bigger opponents as well
I reckon AJ would find it difficult to deal with the angles he comes in at

Talking about ducking? Fucking Canelo booking a fight before GGG. "Wants a fight at 160 first", please. Can GGG start harassing De La Hoya now? Pick up your phonnnnne, we will be calllllinnnnnngggggg
KP thoughts on the brook vs Golovkin fight?
Incredible, I know why this fight has happened but wow what a risk.
Friends I think two weights is too much no matter how strong brook is. It's just not his natural weight.

It's smart in the way that if he gets battered it doesn't really matter, he'll blame the jump in weight and go back to welter, I have thought he might step up a division soon anyway but not 2.
As for the fight itself I think he'll get beat quite easily, I'm a Brook skeptic anyway and GGG will be too strong.

Still feel the same? I'm actually starting to have doubts (about GGG win)
What a month for boxing, one thing I'd bet on is there being an upset in either GGGs fight or Canelo's fight.
I dont think Canelo is going to be expecting the thunder and pain Smith is going to bring.
Callum will be pound for pound king but Liam will be a very very good fighter #smithbrothers
Good win by Nigel's son, tbh most hyped to see Callum tonight but the brook is going to have me on edge
By Kidjr Go To PostGood win by Nigel's son, tbh most hyped to see Callum tonight but the brook is going to have me on edgeDon't worry once Round 6 hits GGG will start the dispatch.
By KP Go To PostI'm coming round to the idea of a Brook points win.
What you been smoking kp
My doubt have now grown into about the GGG win into a confident victory for brook. Points win. He looks soooooo natural at this weight
By Fergie Go To PostOh. Had no idea there was a specific thread. 😂
If there are people with a specific interest in boxing I'll put some effort into the OT
Just wanted to gauge interest initially

Not sure there will be many worthwhile events though, good to have so deeper discussions can be made.
Ok I'll do it up pretty.
Did anyone catch my boy Callum, I fucking love that guy man.
I enjoyed what sky sports did talking to GGGs past opponents. One of the things that stuck with me is that someone that said after u feel his power ever time he feints you end up using sooooo much nervous energy it fucks your game plan
