So after studying Floyd for a couple of years now his best attribute besides quick reflexes is ability to take punches and not have to adjust posture or guard. Canelo is a heavy body puncher and he never broke posture. If being 41 has deterioated his body muscular some Conor has a shot. That is a key component of his philly shell and defense is his bodies ability to absorb shots. Conors stance switching can draw something but you guys gotta remember Floyd isnt gonna engage if he feels unsafe so Conor has got to set traps for him. This fights becomes very interesting if early Conor can wobble him. We've never seen how Floyd defense is when hurt. Against Mosely he held on for dear life which you cant do against a well versed grappler. Key is to hurt him early in a round not before the bell.

There's a decent PBC card on tomorrow plus Derevyanchenko-Johnson on the 25th.
Nolan Morgan
Is Tureano Johnson any decent? The only recognizable name on his record is Stevens.
Luke Wood
what's benavidez doing on a Friday night? Woulda thought there was enough hype around him that he could move to Saturday
Lincoln Watson
Wasn't he going to fight Dirrell?
Lucas Perez
Honestly the amount of HOF fighters Floyd fought and the mosley punch is still the only real shot where he actually looked desperate to me says a lot about what a great defensive fighter he is
Evan Gutierrez
He's injured
Kevin Lewis
(((injured)))
Ryder Evans

Thomas Peterson
I've really only seen his fight with Stevens but he was very unlucky to have lost that one. If he gets after Derevyanchenko it could be a good fight.

Shane needs that money fight as well.
Bentley Lopez
50/50 as in there'd be a 50% chance Floyd Sr. would die in the ring
Matthew Richardson
Deontay Wilder
Colton Wright
He fought Jesus Soto Karass in his last two fights but I think it was only shown on The Ring's website. He lost to Robert Guerrero. Signed to Golden Boy so it's a way to gift Cotto a title and make his last fight relevant.
Kayden Murphy
>it's a way to gift Cotto a title and make his last fight relevant.
Boxing needs to stop doing this. People want to see the best of the best fight, or at least entertaining matchups.

Who am I?
Luke Perez
it's common knowledge that MMA fans are retarded but how many of them do you think are actually laying down money right now on McGregor?
please god let kamegai somehow turn it into an all out japanese brawl so that the cotto loses. he waited for sergio martinez to be an old one-legged man after ducking him for five years during the latter's prime
Samuel Sullivan
Cotto is already done so I don't really mind (or care for) this match up, although I would've liked to seen him in there with JMM or Lemieuax

>how many of them do you think are actually laying down money right now on McGregor? A lot of them given that Floyd went from -1500 to -300 in a matter of weeks.
Evan Howard
respect. here's a really good article on hardcore's history from Sup Forums's guy Scruffie. also one of the oldest webpages on the internet that is still active, the absolute madman
He worked at a pizza place for a long time. Boxing has probably given him plenty of money to open Sosa's slice.
Charles Gonzalez
He is one of my favorite boxers. Just because he was annihilated by Loma doesn't mean there aren't other lucrative fights for him out there. He would also be a good test for Gervonta.
Colton Taylor
Great translator, that's how it should be done.
Colton Young
anyone else think Kamegai is going to give Cotto a tough fight, Kamegai is dangerous fight for Cotto
Elijah Rivera
Cotto didn't look half bad against Canelo, but I can't believe it's already been almost 2 years since then.
Evan Diaz
Cotto UD
Jason Perry
>“It’s probably [going to be] a landslide. Look at the great fighters Mayweather’s fought, and he’s made them look average. Some of the fighters Mayweather’s fought would probably beat Conor McGregor as well. Conor can’t really compete."
>“He’s coming out of his field and going into Mayweather’s domain. Even though he’s an excellent fighter in UFC, he’s not an excellent boxer. Him crossing over is going to be a real big challenge and in other words, he needs to shut up blad."
Lincoln Evans
Wake up boy, it's ogre
Evan Evans
The one thing MMA fights actually can do better is cut weight
that will be conors main strategy, to come in way heavier and use his weight as an advantage
Tyler Evans
If he comes in too heavy the risk of him gassing increases
Evan Turner
Kneeguel?
Aaron Wilson
>scaruffi being this retarded

Colton Clark
Did Bradley retire just to duck that young Vargas rematch?
Putting him against Kamegai for his first fight in a year and a half at 36 year old is not giving him a "gift". Kamegai should have gotten the nod during the first match with Karass and he handled him well the second time. He's not an elite level fighter or anything mind you, but he's decent and has a lot of heart similar to this general's favorite Japanese fighter, Miura.
If Cotto has declined too much he could very much lose, so I think it's a perfect comeback match to gauge how well he can handle himself after a long layoff.
Carter Davis
was froch elite?
Logan Rivera
Vargas won at most three rounds, the belief that he was robbed is wrong and is only held because of his delusions of grandeur.
Nolan Nguyen
do you guys know a good website to follow the bets like how much money there is on one fighter ect?
Isaac Cook
This, Kamegai is limited but tough as fuck
Ayden Sullivan
He schooled Vargas winning like 10 rounds, why he be afraid?
Joshua Baker
oddschecker or look at graphs on betfair exchange. There's £20 million matched on betfair
Jacob Myers
Froch shouldn't have even been a champion with his slow arse hands down brawler style yet he has wins over pascal, Kessler, bute, groves, dirrell, Jermaine Taylor and abraham

conor is literally and unironically going to stop mayweather and it blows my mind that people aren't taking that fact very seriously. i guess you /box/fags really are closed minded

I was randomly flipping channels years ago and randomly stumbld on Johnny Tapia getting stopped on a body shot by some can on Spanish language TV. I think he continued fighting for a while but you could just tell how things were gonna end for him. I hope he's at peace now

Joseph Evans
He was memeing Cotto, but I can't think of the other hobbled guy. Sergio Martinez was downright hobbled for the fight. Still, Cotto has some solid wins such as his one against Mosley, and really other than a loss to Trout all of his losses were "acceptable" as they were to superior foes, or Margarito padding his gloves. Put himself together a nice career and one of my faves. Hope he still has a fight or two left in the tank. Would love to see him get a decent fight in MSG to cap it off.
Jayden Lopez
Can any Rigo fanboys explain why he gets dropped so often by nobodies?
