You don't want it to go ahead?


I'll explain ..............

First fight GGG won on points, quite clearly, he landed a lot more and Canelo only fought for the last 15 seconds of each round and it was a blatant and lazy attempt to steal rounds.

It was such a bad decision a judge was suspended .........SUSPENDED ffs!

When the hell does that ever happen, they were obviously embarrassed.

Golden boy promotions has been setting Canelo up to be the latino / mexican champion for ages now, invested in him to become the next money spinner and they stole a draw in an obvious attempt for another big money fight and to hound GGG into a loss.

Its disgraceful, GGG is a warrior and a good sport, he'll accept the challenge but I thought the result was disgusting.

In what universe was that a draw?

With everything else even i.e no counts, no KO's etc all you had was punches landed and work rate ......... are you telling me Canelo equaled GGG in any of those stats?

Hence why I think the whole thing is a circus engineered by the man in drag Delahoya.

Boxing stinks. It's probably the most corrupt sport out there. It's like when the referee was bribed in 1984 for Forrest vs Anderlecht (where he got paid £27,000 for his efforts) except it's every second fight.

Lomachenko vs Linares, May 12th.

Loma daring to be great by moving up in weight and taking on the champ.

Both are as smooth as they come, should be an artistic fight with mad angles.

Do you know what I don't like about Fury, he gets buy on size alone, yeah he can box a bit, but he's not exactly Muhammed Ali, or even Foreman for that matter.

Also I wouldn't count Joshua out for that one, Joshua hits hard enough to hurt Fury.

............. this is all by the way if Fury can get his act together.

But if he does make a comeback, the HW div will be pretty lit seeing fights between Joshua, Wilder and Fury.

Hopefully they all fight each other.

Joshua wouldn’t get close to Fury

Fury’s style is like hell for someone as stiff as AJ

Tbf Joshua was so much quicker and less stiff when he weighed a lot less, fury is so awkward though, him and bjs been boxing before they can walk so their experts at it

I'd go fkin nuts for a Fury vs Wilder fight.

Size vs Speed.

I know Wilder is giving up a few stone but he's got enough height to give a straight right at a level angle so he can put his shoulder through the punch.

If he can hit hard enough to hurt Fury then Fury may lose this one.

Its all if's and maybes which is why this is one of the most interesting HW trios since Fraizer, Ali and Foreman, if not in quality then at least in entertainment value.

Fury is bigger, taller, quicker and faster.

Wilder's only advantage is power.

Can Fury return to the form he was in when he fought Klitschko, though? I think this is the only relevant question. If he can i'm sure he could beat both Joshua and Wilder.

When I say quicker I mean footwork, head movement and reflexes.

When I say faster I mean his hand speed.

Fury has both the size and speed advantage.

He is a freak of nature. One of the fastest HW's to ever live.

LOL

I'm going to have to re-watch one of his fights because all I remember when he fought Klitzcho (however you spell it) was Fury leaning all over him on the ropes.

Fury is actually quicker and more agile than both Joshua and Wilder even when he's morbidly obese.
