    Anyone watch Shakur Stevenson last night.
    What do you think?
    I've followed him thru his career and have to say, the more I watch, the more I like.
    What a pure boxer he is.
    I hope he not rushed into fighting the big boys yet, he only has 15 fights.

    Very good! He beat Pulev like he committed a crime lol :D

    I actually predicted a 9th rd TKO. :eek:

    I should have bet on that one but I didn't lol.

    AJ is looking good to upset Fury next year. ;)

    I didnt know which AJ would show up. He looked very good. A bit more mature, not as gun shy. Still a bit reserved from his old self. Maybe thats his maturity?

    Yeah, I think he has changed since his loss to Ruiz and he won't be the same fighter as he was before.

    Definitely for the better of course and I think he has matured also which will make him a better fighter.

    You called it!

    Yessir. Saudi Arabia AJ not Madison Square Garden AJ. Loved the uppercuts devastating. Cant wait for AJ-Fury.

    PAP whats your call for GGG and Canelo?

    Hi mate. :)

    GGG should make easy work of his opponent, whom I have never heard of before lol. :D

    I had a look and he is undefeated, but has never fought anyone like GGG, so I think he is in a world of hurt tomorrow. :D

    GGG looks ripped also, should be a nice TKO/KO victory for him I think.


    Canelo? :D

    Ohhhhhhhhhhh, this should be a good fight! :D

    Smith is undefeated and has ruled the Super Middleweight division for many years now.

    He has fought them all in his division, but he hasn't faced anyone has talented as Canelo of course.

    Smith has a huge height and reach advantage over Canelo, so if he keeps his distance and controls the fight with his jab, he definitely has a big chance of winning this fight on points.

    I don't think he has the power to KO Canelo, Canelo is as tough as they come so it will be hard. But I think Smith can do it if he sticks to a game plan.

    If he lets Canelo in close to work the inside, then Canelo will body punch the **** out of him and eventually chop him down. Canelo has some of the hardest body shots in the business.

    Tough to call, but I am putting my money on Smith for an upset victory over Canelo. :)



    And I am watching a live stream of the GGG fight now, I think his fight is coming up next. :)

    Enjoy the weekend boys, take care and talk soon. :)

    Bloody hell!! You're not bloody wrong there mate! :eek:

    What a performance by Canelo!! He is unstoppable!

    Obviously Smith didn't stick to a game plan, what a malaka!

    He had an 8" reach advantage over Canelo, but his style is to fight on the inside! WTF was he thinking!!

    He messed that up 100%, no doubt about that.

    If he stuck his jab out and backed it up with some combos he still may not have won, but he would have avoided the serious punishment he took over 12 rounds.

    Smith holds the world record for jabs thrown in a fight in the Super Middleweight division they said, 800+ jabs in that fight but he threw **** all jabs at Canelo last night.

    He won't get a rematch against Canelo, he blew it big time. And it looks like he may have torn his left bicep muscle also.................dear me!! :(

    Great points.
    His game plan could have been easy. Jab and use your reach & height. What was that crap about him lowering his stance BS. who gave him that idea?

    Canelo looked on point. Striking was devastating and he walked through Smith's punches like nothing. Gotta go with GGG vs Canelo trilogy. GGG won the first fight and many think the 2nd as well. Friday was classic GGG. Now Canelo is promotionally representing himself the rematch should be a done deal.

    Still Crawford vs Spence gets me more fired up.

    Absolutely! They both looked amazing last week.

    GGG definitely won the first fight, I reckon Canelo won their second fight......................I think the third fight will decide the winner and that is a tough call.

    Although I bet Canelo is thinking of cherry picking another title belt in the Light Heavyweight division to become a 5x weight world champion. Perhaps he can even step it up to the Cruiserweight division, he has many options if he has the balls and I think he does.

    Crawford VS Spence Jr is the next big fight to make for sure!

    Crawford vs Spence for sure! I hate when fighters talk money is what's stopping them in a fight of this caliber. Spence wants it 70%-30%.
    Heck, make a deal at 70%-30%. Simple, winner gets 70%
    I guarantee Crawford would go for it!

    Agreed Canelo looked big and he racked up the power punches landed.

    Crawford is a beast will prove a worthy opponent to Spence.

    70-30 split for Spence? :eek:

    Obviously trying to "price" himself out of the fight isn't he. :(

    Hopefully they can make it happen asap. We can't wait another 5 years for this fight, otherwise it will turn into another Mayweather/Pacquiao disappointment. :oops:

    Yeah man, I reckon he will give some of the bigger boys some trouble. :)

    And if Roy Jones Jr can start at Middleweight and cherry pick a Heavyweight world title, I reckon Canelo can definitely step up into the next weight division for sure.

    Don't think he can mix it with AJ, Fury or Wilder of course lol. But the those big boys in Light Heavyweight or Crusierweight might wanna watch out.

    Crawford will prove a worthy opponent and will be the victor in that fight I reckon. :D

    They are talking Shakur vs Lomo. Im not too sure what to think on this one.
    I can go totally one sided and say:
    Too early, Lomo will ruin Shakur. But the other side says, wow, what a brilliant match up. Shakur's defense is one of the best I've seen. Id love to see how it matches up with Lomo.

    The bottom line is:
    Lomo will eventually wear Shakur down and stop him in the later rounds. Too much pressure for a young fighter.

    Not from a reputable source, but worth conversation.
    I think Floyd Mayweather got screwed on this list. Not that I'm a big fan of his, but give the guy a bit of respect.

    Always funny seeing these lists. :D

    All subjective of course! I only agree with maybe 50% of the people on that list and I would have definitely moved others further up the list and some further down the list if I put it together lol

    Again, everyone has an opinion and that's fair enough. :)

    I am not a huge fan of Mayweather Jr either, but he definitely needs to be in everyone's top 10 list for sure. :D
