No chance of him coming back this year. I thought he was actually training as he called out Wilder again

If I'm not mistake, Tyson and Holyfield were supposed to fight much sooner than they actually did, but Tyson's loss to Douglas threw a wrench in that plan.

>>74197661
I don't know how steroids work - would someone like Joshua use them in the build up to each fight or would he only need them during the bulking phase?

Can Thurman outbox Garcia?

>>74197727
He can and will

Garcia's skills aren't great. He's going to get dominated, his only chance is if Thurman gets overconfident and leaves himself open for a massive counter

>>74197744

Didn't he struggle with Ashley Theopane?

>>74197755
I've never seen it but I heard that. He lost to Herrera and Peterson for my money too, and looked nothing special against Guerrero and Malignaggi either

Khan and Matthysse were good wins but I really don't think he's anything special. I think Porter would beat him

>>74197700

Steroids are testosterone compounds. Men produce around 50mg of testosterone naturally a week, testosterone helps build muscle by speeding up recovery times, makes you stronger, faster, gives you more energy. If you use steroids then you will retain some of the muscle gain when you're off but too much muscle is not going to be good for endurance.

I don't know what he has or hasn't done. There are lots of tricks you can do to improve endurance that can go undetected like the scandal with cyclists boosting red blood cell count. All we can say for sure is he hasn't been caught doing anything he shouldn't be doing.

Will he ever be the same? He's coming back at 147. I think he may be too small for 147.

>>74197814
I'm highly suspicious of the 30 lbs of lean muscle he gained on his huge and already muscular frame within a couple of years after he turned pro. I'm just wondering whether he would need to continue taking steroids/HGH/whatever to maintain that muscle, or whether once he's got it he could maintain it through normal/legal means

>>74198105
I don't fancy his chances in any tough twelve rounders against top opposition - I think his body and his psyche have been damaged in his defeats - but he could potentially score some upset KOs. He's a fun fighter and I'm glad to have him back though. He'd be a great test for Frankie Gomez at some point

>>74198187

You can retain the majority of muscle mass gained with the help of steroids with nutrition and training and Joshua is clearly a total pro about that. Muscle mass isn't everything though, Frank Bruno circa 1996 was pretty big as well

>>74197945
Imagine Thurman knocking out Garcia in front of a sold out Barclay's and millions of viewers on live free TV, while Angel Garcia is sobbing trying to fight Thurman

>>74198471
Bruno would ko AJ stiff desu

Yea nah, Garcia will land his sneaky counter left hook and smash Thurman's glass

Thurman's gonna outbox Garcia.

I think Granados is a bad style match-up for Broner.

Broner doesn't like pressure.

Pac ducking Horn confirmed !

>>74200502
>Crawford at 27% in 3rd

Why ffs?

>>74200564

Crawford should happen at the end of the year in the US doesn't really make sense for that to be in the UAE. I just don't want Khan ducking Brook and walking into another mega pay day

Khan doesn't deserve shit. He's a chinny faggot

>>74200621

With him being muslim and the only one definitely available for that he's the most logical choice unfortunately, not sure what's going on with the Jeff Horn fight but Manny really doesn't seem keen on that

>>74200621

Khan has always been B-level at best.

I'll be honest, I'm not all that impressed by Beterbiev.

>>74200646
nor should he be

>>74200661
VERY overrated by some, but definitely has dynamite in his hands

>>74200557
>fella

I'm assuming Pac has realised there's probably people in Jeff Horn's family who don't even know who he is, and would prefer to fight someone who is going to draw some dimes. Especially seeing as he's only got a couple of fights left in him, and his last fight was against a shitter as well.

>>74201072

He should just retire. There is nothing left for him to do.

Go be a politician and let the young guys take over boxing. He has been in a lot of wars.

Tyson also ducked Foreman.

>>74201265
Can he? I heard that he's fucking horrible with his money

>>74201551
I remember reading somewhere that Foreman wanted this fight badly. At that point he walked around like he was wearing lead diving boots but he still had the power and physical strength that made him swarmer kryptonite in his younger years. He had the chin to survive an early Tyson assault and after that he'd have all the advantages. I really think he would've won that fight if it'd happened.

>>74201892
Same, there's a video of him on YouTube calling out tyson on a talk show, he said it'd be over in four rounds. I can't see tyson beating him

>>74201874

He made ~160 million fighting mayweather, and that was like 2 years ago. If he blew that already he's hopeless.

>>74202722

I dunno about that. But he's the ideal boxing career. Cash out while on top. He earned every bit. If he wants to be fat, he earned that too.

Beat Mayweather at least once, if not 2x, shut Broners face. Guy's a legend.

Dude he's a b level fighter at best put on a smart suit grab a mike and commentate he had successful career and even won a belt but he's not close to being a goat

>>74200789
Beterbiev went toe to toe with a 25 year old Oleksandr Usyk in the Amateurs. They weren't pitty pat boxing either they weren't going hard. Usyk is a BIG cruiser to put that in perspective.

Beterbiev is the strongest LHW we've seen possibly in all of boxing history and like Kovalev, his boxing ability is going to go completely underrated for the entirety of his career.

>>74204667
>I know people in his camp he's broke as shit it's sad

opinion discarded.

The only way Manny could possibly be broke is if he self funded his political campaign. Which isn't the case.

>>74204703
he was in 100's of millions of debt going int the Floyd fight

>>74204769
Yeah, 100's of millions in debt but he didn't bother selling his mansion in Cali.

>>74204703
I dont think he is in debt, but the guy spend the vast majority of his money. Also I think many companies avoid associate his name with him since he said gays should be killed

>>74204834
People who grew up poor are notoriously shit at managing their money, especially someone like Pac with so many hangers on. It isn't hard for me to believe at all.

>I think you guys forgot how good he looked against canelo until that KO

Stupid argument but you've hit on why he keeps getting good fights. Opponents like him because he'll make things interesting, not be a complete pushover and be a lot of fun to watch to keep the punters happy, including his inevitable sparking out at the end.

Does feel like a bit of a cash out from Saunders, no way he should be going straight to this after that last performance. Probably getting very well paid to do it though.

>>74205318

>>74205354
kek, is there a glitch in your matrix afghanbro you seem to be posting the same thing again and again.

This one absolutely will happen for this reason >>74205340

stop acting like the fights been confirmed

>>74205394
Obviously it hasn't 100%, but it matches up pretty well with everything that both Saunders and Warren have been saying about the situation lately. I'd say it's far more likely than not at this point.

>>74205367
the WBO belt is all saunders has, I don't think that he will take the risk

>>74205436
The real risk is not cashing out against GGG and losing it against Khurtsidze instead to little fanfare, for no money and become entirely irrelevant. If he performs the way he did in his last fight that would certainly be the way it goes too.

The only person anyone must defeat is themselves

>>74205452
>cashing out
>against golovkin

pick but one

If someone has sensitive skin can they still become a fighter or will that give them problems?

>>74205502
they'll cut cut to shit. see hatton, ricky.

>>74205494
The fight is in Astana because they have a huge international event there to display Kazakhstan to the world. So culturally it's worth a huge amount to Kazakhstan's dictatorship to get the undisputed status on their own soil, they'll be willing to pay whatever it takes. Not to mention how much it's worth to Golovkin's promoter to deny Canelo the chance to get one of the middleweight belts. That fight will eventually be worth so much that paying a bit extra here will seem like small fry for what they can make then.

The original fight was supposed to happen in 1990 but didn't happen when Tyson lost to Buster Douglas. Douglas lost to Holyfield and they then had a fight scheduled for November 8th 1991 which Tyson pulled out of with a rib injury. Tyson was convicted in February 1992

This fight is confirmed now May 20th in the UK. Really good 50/50 fight, I could plausibly see either of them getting the decision or either being knocked out. Boxing calendar is stacked for the first half of this year.

Bowe sparks either of the bitchkos

>>74213577
Riddick lost to holyfield who lost to Lennox who in everyone's eyes and the judges was getting beat by a Vitali who only had one good eye.

Should i put money on Granados . Broner has a known problem with high volume pressure fighters but Granados is not maidana..... Really thinking about this boys.

>>74213619
Holyfield wasn't Holyfield when he fought Lewis

>>74213653
im planning on it gunna watch both lads last two fights the night before see what that does to my opinion

>>74213679
Its a great pay off broner is a -350 favorite meaning my 200 dollar bet against him can net me 500 bucks. This is either a goldmine or im hyping up Granados skill set.

>>74213731
the Imam win and the sudden change of weight limit is what has me sitting on the edge

>>74213739
You think the weight will be a pro or con for granados?

>>74213754
granados but only if hes able to smother Broner. Granados should do everything in and out of the book to keep this at close quarters even though he usually fights at mid-range

Don't see Bronerweight

So if Brook gets beat by Spence, will it once and for all kill the chances of Brook-Khan ever happening?

Khan could easily pull the "lol you got beat, don't have a world title anymore, your a scrub, I'm not fighting you" card.

Or will he think that Brook getting beaten means he's vulnerable?

>>74214848
Khan is ultimately just whoring himself around for the most money possible, I honestly don't think he cares about winning anymore. The only reason he's not jumping at the Brook fight now, is that it will likely still be available a year from now, whereas potential fights with Garcia and Pacquiao probably won't be.

>>74214653

>>74212156
I might remember wrong, but I think he was 174 on fight night, and Golovkin like 171?

>>74212156
>>74215113

Brook was 168 lbs on the IBF on the day weigh in

http://www.boxingscene.com/gennady-golovkin-1678-kell-brook-168-ibfs-fight-day-weighin--108606

>>74214848

Brook getting beaten by Spence means Brook's stock falls as he's not such a big seller to casuals if he's lost again and doesn't have the IBF title. That means Khan has a better case for 70/30 split. It would also give him the chance to look at how Brook copes with a dangerous young fighter who can punch and evaluate his own chances as he doesn't really want to lose him

Competing hard with Mayweather vs McGregor for dumbest rumour of the year.

Is boxe better than kickboxing? Kickboxng gym is closer to me but it seems like a boxe bad clone

>>74215731

better for what?

>>74215440
But if Khan fights Pac and loses(maybe even by ko) then they're pretty much on the same page.

>>74216018
Hope khan wins he's the one of the few fighters that can beat mayweather. If he faces and beats Pac man floyd might want him next and that could be his undoing.

>>74216265
Lol, Mayweather can spend another year off, comeback and school the fuck out of Kahn. Probably the only person I give the best chance against Mayweather is Garcia. Not saying he beats him though

>>74216487
>Name one boxer whos outboxed khan.....
>No one not even Canelo who is two divisions above amir could outbox him. Only way to beat him is to knock him out.

Now last time floyd knocked someone out was 6 years ago with a sucker punch against ortiz. Amir is much too quick for a 40 year old floyd and "broken hands" mayweather doesn't have the power anymore to hurt khan.
> Khan by one sided UD

>>74213674
yet he still beat lewis in the second fight

>>74216737
>School khan
No one has schooled Khan ever, he's a prodigy, albeit a prodigy with a glass jaw. Like I said only way to beat him is to knock him out. It took a 180 pound Canelo 6 rounds to do that against a career light welterweight. No way floyd can hurt him and its absurd to think floyd can school a guy that makes Zab Judah looks slow.

>2017
>people still falling for the khan meme
ayy that glass chin faggot hasn't been a top fighter for a decade

>>74216744

You can not be serious Ahmed, get out of your autism chamber. Khan struggled against Algieri, got beat by Lamont Peterson and Zab Judah was never top level. Floyd operated on another level to Khan and is an old man now. Pacquiao will beat him just like every top fighter has.

>>74216808
Because he fights power punchers with a chin the strength of peanut brittle. In terms of boxing skill though he's clearly a prodigy you cant train to outbox like that. Unless floyd magically turns into a knockout artist with more sheer power than Danny García or maidana he's getting outboxed by a much quicker and younger khan.

>>74216827
>Lamont not getting the hometown decision
>lamont not juiced up
Like i said only way to beat khan is to hurt his chin, a much bigger juiced up lamont could barely pull it off but somehow a small floyd who hasn't knocked out someone that wasn't sucker punched since 2009 can magically turn into a KO artist?
>algerie
Ok? And floyd struggled with a 40 year old De la hoya, every one has their bad days.

>>74216744
Floyd would time Khan easily and would ko him after tons of counters

>>74216956
> 40 y.o.Floyd knocking out anyone
Khan Isn't a flat footed Canelo and I doubt he can constantly counter someone that has probably the fastest hands in boxing right now. Even Lennox agrees with me.

>>74216891

The best name on Khan's resume is Maidana, that's the one legit win he has. Mayweather was one of the greatest counter punchers of all time, in his prime he would eat Khan alive and even now it would be a comfortable decision by 3 or 4 points.

Khan should fight Broner, that would be a fight involving a name he could win

>>74217011
>By beating past their prime fighters like manny and DLH
>OR fighting guys that are easy to counter like Canelo.
Floyd doesn't fight other floyds, in other words he chooses aggressive fighters that are easy to counter and he can box comfortably. He doesn't fight out boxers who are quicker or are defensively orientated. Khan would overwhelm floyd easy and box him to a easy UD. Floyd's hands are notorious for breaking even his best counters at this stage of his career would just annoy khan.

>>74217615

>>74217062
Yeah that would be a good fight for him (if Broner makes it past Granados)

Pacquiao in the UAE must be top of his wish list though

Is this the best beginning to a boxing year ever?

>>74217938
Probably, just hope that the second half of the year is just as good. If we at least get Golovkin/Canelo I'm happy

>>74217938
Shit loma is fighting in DC something I thought would never happen. Can't wait to go this year has already started out great.

Don't know why garcia vs thurman is the same day as ufc 209 but this might be our chance to take the spotlight. Who you think gets more views a ufc ppv or boxing on CBS?

>>74217938

You would have to go back some years for a 6 month period with match making as strong as this:

James DeGale vs Badou Jack
Jose Pedraza vs Gervonta Davis
Carl Frampton vs Leo Santa Cruz
Mikey Garcia vs Dejan Zlaticanin
Francisco Vargas vs Miguel Berchelt
Keith Thurman vs Danny Garcia
Gennady Golovkin vs Daniel Jacobs
David Lemieux vs Curtis Stevens
Jorge Linares vs Anthony Crolla
Anthony Joshua vs Wladimir Klitschko
Joseph Parker vs Hughie Fury
Liam Smith vs Liam Williams
Jason Sosa vs Vasyl Lomachenko
Canelo Alvarez vs Julio Chavez Jr
Kell Brook vs Errol Spence Jr

Lot of really good fights in there. You had some MMA people on here last year seriously believing boxing was dead but UFC have just put on a terrible PPV and their schedule isn't as good as this.

>>74218353
CBS

>>74218373

CBS is free, PBC has done 3.5 to 4 million viewers many times so it will definitely get more viewers than a PPV event

>>74218368
I seem to recall 2013 being epic but I can't remember why exactly

Just rewatched Joshua-Breazeale and I'm starting to think Wlad can beat him. I don't think Joshua will have a good time against a guy who beats him to the jab and is constantly moving away from his big right hand

>>74218528

It will be a close fight but I'm not backing against Joshua. Wlad is going to be 41 years old, it would be Foreman esque winning the world title again. Joshua needs to put him on the ropes, stop him from clinching and try to blast through early

>>74218528

I think AJ carried the useless Brazeale to prove he could "box". It was basically a heavy bag workout.

>>74218487

2013 in the first 6 months had:

Orlando Salido vs Mikey Garcia
Gennady Golovkin vs Gabriel Rosado
David Price vs Tony Thompson
Adrien Broner vs Gavin Rees
Timothy Bradley vs Ruslan Provodnikov
Terence Crawford vs. Breidis Prescott
Nonito Donaire vs. Guillermo Rigondeaux
Wladimir Klitschko vs Francesco Pianeta
Tyson Fury vs Steve Cunningham
Sergio Martinez vs. Martin Murray
Canelo Alvarez vs Austin Trout
Danny Garcia vs Zab Judah
Carl Froch vs. Mikkel Kessler II
Chad Dawson vs. Adonis Stevenson
Floyd Mayweather vs Robert Guerrero
Adrien Broner vs Paulie Malignaggi
Mikey Garcia vs. Juan Manuel Lopez
Gennady Golovkin vs. Matthew Macklin

Some decent fights but not as good as the start to this year. There are other fights that can still be made as well like Luis Ortiz vs Jarrell Miller, Dillian Whyte vs Derek Chisora II, Manny Pacquiao vs Amir Khan, Gennady Golovkin vs Billy Joe Saunders.

>>74218743
Maybe, but I thought I spotted some chinks in his armour regardless. Namely, he fights in straight lines, he doesn't keep his head moving, he's wasteful in attack and he has a one-dimensional jab. On the other hand, he set a good pace and didn't slow down

If Lomachenko beats Sosa and Corrales, is he a top 10 ATG at 130?

>>74219030

The 2 key differences between 2013 and 2017 is that HBO has cut budget and is producing much less but the UK scene in that time has got much stronger and now Matchroom's output more than makes up for it.

>>74217004
Lennox also thinks AJ is a great boxer

>>74219231
130 has a pretty strong history so I doubt it

He would have to fully unify it

Canelo spent 6 rounds working Khan's body though. It got to the point where those punches were clearly having such an effect, so that when Canelo feinted at him, Khan took the bait and got heem'd.

It's not like Canelo spent the entire fight aimlessly swinging at Khan's dome until something connected

Epic year so far. We've had 3-4 FOTY contenders already.

Who else here /runningat530amET/?

>>74229614
I think Haymon wants to start a bidding war between the networks, cable sports contracts are extremely lucrative. Really nothing about PBC has been sustainable from the get-go.

>>74229682
They would have been in a better position to get a network deal if they were on fewer channels. They could have had fewer but better cards which would have generated more consistent ratings. someone would have given them a deal if they were getting 2.5-3m consistently on network tv.

>>74229742
Could be. But they're burning money paying for airtime, throwing everything into a smaller number of stacked cards on just a couple networks could have imploded if ratings were poor right off the bat. Haymon had a pretty big war chest to start with and I'm sure he wanted to make sure he could use it all up.

Course the other theory is that Haymon just wants everybody under contract so he can go back to holding HBO and Showtime hostage for PPV bucks after he finishes cashing in on his huge PBC managerial cuts. We'll see.

>>74229742
This.

Not sure if this is still the case, but Haymon has been coming out of his (investors') pockets to buy time slots. I don't know why they have matches on Spike TV of NBC1000 or whatever the fuck.

>>74229822
Ratings would not have been poor off the bat. boxing fans follow stars nor brands. haymon had a few solid B-C level stars that were built up on HBO that boxing fans were interested in. The same ones that got very high ratings on their network TV PBC fights. Haymon needed to maximize these guys. instead of having major Network time wasted with nobodies like omar figeroa. can't do that when you are on , NBC, CBS, ESPN, SHOWTIME, SPIKE, FOX, FS1, BOUNCE, ETC. ETC. SPREAD WAY TO FUCKING THIN.
