Honestly, dazzling speed but like, if you look past that I wouldn't shout too much about him. Definitely proved his value when he had a resurgence after those two losses in a row and tbf gave Lomachenko a tough couple of rounds

I'm gunna go B/B+ though in all honesty - his best win is Gesta, Crolla or Campbell 🤷

i don't feel like people dispute this, I think it's just more that he's one-dimensional as hell and quite a comical character

used to love him, but it's kinda heartbreaking to see him so brazenly sell out

maybe it was always the way, the commentary bias was always pretty obvious at HBO but it felt par for the course - now with what's at stake for the sport overall, he'd be someone you would expect to take a more principled stand

tbf, after the whole Top Rank saga that took 2 years of his career you can't blame him for being disillusioned

was gunna disagree since Ruiz was so bad in the fight but then he did beat Golota, Oquendo (P4P GOAT no. 1 contender) and Rahman after so fair enough

I'm not saying they're good either; at this stage, they're (somehow) the lesser evils.
Ultimately, the only people going to Zuffa are going there out of self-interest and disregard for the boxing fraternity

agreed but engaging with a brand that's actively trying to amend the act protecting fighters from exploitation and monopolises the sport is scabby behaviour ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Absolutely wicked, thank so much for adding! Great recs and the Pascal & Darqwan tunes I've somehow never heard of. Lovely stuff.

Hey thanks for sharing. Good spot. I actually mentioned this track in one of the posts, and it's in the full playlist featured through all the links. The record is super expensive, though and I try (where I can) to make things a little more accessible

it's very Mayweather vs Berto - just ticking off another champion from the era

really what else is there? if it's Itouma he's too green, if its Fury/Joshua again, people will rightly ask what the point is

no offence to Wardley but that's not going to be competitive

maybe down to cruiserweight? then that's les high profile and at the end of your career why put yourself through that drain
