>Some managers actually think it's a good idea to put black boxers against Soviet boxer-punches.
Jacobs has a glass jaw, he got dropped by Sergio Mora last fight too. Both guys are chinny in this fight but I think Quillin might knock him out. He's Khan-tier.

opinions on the GOAT that is called Joe Calzaghe?
>>64017580
Fantastic fighter, incredible work rate and combination punching.
Easily the most triggering fighter you can mention also. Americans get absurdly angry when you bring him up.
>>64017785
lols i brought it up in /heem/ for bants and got some angry replies from americans tbf.
idk if I can entirely blame them either desu. Calzaghe is the true GOAT however, it's not unjustifiable to say he fought RJJ too late. The reasons being whatever.
>>64017580
GOAT stamina and ring IQ
It's a shame he was so protected, he should have gone to the US earlier
I'd back him against anyone at SMW except prime RJJ and Toney
>>64017785
I personally like calzaghe, its mostly the african american boxing fans that hate him because he's compared to ward and he beat bhop/rjjr
main event is next right?
>>64018016
Beating Hopkins, Kessler and Eubank is a more than justified resume. Jones Jr. was just the icing on that cake.
Also he gave hypejob Lacy one of the harshest exposings in boxing history.
>>64018185
featherweights first
Jesus Cuellar - Jonathan Oquendo
>>64018185
woah what the fuck am I reading, the card is just starting
disregard that I suck cocks
Anyone else a little skeptical about Anthony Joshua? He's only fought bums so far so it's too early to tell anything. It doesn't bode well that he benefited from 2 (arguably 3) robberies to win the Olympic gold.
>>64018111
>goat stamina
for sure
>ring IQ
ya I suppose to a certain extent, I think his speed was far more essential however and he did have a few too many knockdowns in his career to be GOAT ring IQ imo
>prime RJJ
difficult to say, when RJJ was prime, Calzaghe was injured for most of it and when Calzaghe was GOAT RJJ was on his way down.
>James Toney
different era desu, either way Calzaghe would've been too intelligent for him imo
>>64018194
that hopkins fight is literally the definition of frustrating.
>hopkins literal dirty awkward boxer
>at the time seen as past it
>with hindsight can now be seen as a tremendous boxer at the time
>no credit given however to calzaghe as he was seen to struggle to an 'old man'
upcoming boxing schedule looks pretty shit for a while. We're going right to about February at least before decent fights. Nothing good for rest of December, January is Kovalev-Pascal rematch (fucking why?) Danny Garcia vs Roberto Gurerro (cherry-picking).
>>64018361
He's blue-chip talent. All indications project he will be a world title contender. I've never seen a Heavyweight with a better physique. He has abnormal power.
People need to chill though. Like you said, Olympic win was home cooking. We don't know his defence, chin, stamina, ring IQ etc. Nothing is certain, there's levels to this.
>>64018567
Joshua vs. Whyte next weekend (undercard full of exhibition bouts for upcoming UK fighters, potentially worth watching. Lee vs. Saunders for the WBO Middleweight title the week after.
>Kovalev-Pascal rematch (fucking why?)
I don't get people complaining about this. Firstly, the first fight was really entertaining and occasionally competitive.
Secondly, who else is Kovalev gonna fight? Pascal is still a top 5 Light Heavyweight. Stevenson/Beterbiev are Showtime, Hopkins is done...Pascal is the best fight that can be realistically made.
whoever Sakio Bika's agent's/promoter are, they are literally GOAT
>notoriously dirty fighter
>carries no weight in regard to record and prestige in win (imo)
>still has fought calzaghe, bute, ward, beyer, stevenson, dirrell, mendy (undefeated at the time), sjekloca (undefeated at the time) and Manfredo Jr who yanks believe is super good (i believe)
respect to his agents
Odds the winner tonight calls out triple gi gi?
>>64018796
I think fighting all the biggest names while building no reputation or recognition is not a good testament to his promoter.
>>64018847
maybe danny jacobs, no way quill in does.
>>64018796
Reminds me of Joshua Clottey kinda (and not just cause they're African).
>>64018847
Zero.
Quillin will retire prematurely before even thinking about fighting Golovkin.

oh he also became WBC world champion after fighting a >literal who

pretty high, but actually fighting the guy? lol
I think Andy Lee is next for GGG, should be interesting as Lee has power but unlike Lemieux has enough skill to use it
>>64019002
french man talking shit about lemieux
Lemieux had skill. No one gives GGG problems at 160 tho
>>64019002
I think it will be Lee, Erislandy Lara or Tureano Johnson.
>>64018361
he's only a hype job because eddie hearn has a contract with sky sports.
everyone knows it's early days yet. it's just sky sports news and soccer am shoving him down our throat
>>64019092
I would like to see Lara, see if GGG can handle the squat.
>>64018361
Skill wise hes untested, but he is a freak of nature athletically, that could take him far in itself. I see beating everyone except maybe klitchsko, and fury.
That russian cruiserweight fight card was the card of the year
>>64019052
it's all relative Justin, Lee's awkward enough to land something while Lemieux was too basic. Of course GGG will still win though.
also you should've realised that my English is too good to be a frog, I hate these flags sometimes
>>64018937
on the topic of clottey, this man's record is something else

>>64019316
yea styles make fights,
desu i see canelo being competitive af, while i think canelo would wreck lee.
Literally no one touches GGG, gotta start looking at competitive fights at 160 not including GGG
>>64019492
lemieux-canelo
Wilder is a fucking shithouse jobber that prick would get knocked spark out
>"I think they are very nice when they're walking around that ring holding them cards," he said. "I like them actually; they give me inspiration when I'm tired and I see them wiggling around with their Round 2, Round 8. I think women in boxing is very good."
>"It's up to everybody what they want to do. I'm all for it; I'm not a sexist. I believe if a man can to go work all his life a woman can. Who am I to say 'don't do that 'cause you're a girl?' But I believe a woman's best place is in the kitchen and on her back. That's my personal belief. Making me a good cup of tea -- that's what I believe."
Wow doesn't he know it's 2015?
>>64019460
>fighting kovalev twice and still maintaining a love for boxing
how?

Wilder was knocked down by this guy

>>64019639
wish he'd just stfu about the whole thing desu.
not that i disagree with him or anything but this whole shit is unnecessary, why can't he let the belts do the talking for him? fucking pikeys.
>>64019639
All the liberal tears from emasculated Brits this week.
It's been fantastic.
man this fight felt long
>>64019811
>wish he'd just stfu about the whole thing
Hello Mr. BBC employee, I sure do hope this fiasco isn't upsetting our liberal overlords.
>Wilder's polka dot suit and gloves
is he wearing two gold watches too?

fuck kind of commercials do you brits have over there? jesus christ
Showtime is so 'urban' compared to HBO.
>>64020150
HBO is class, tries to cater to older crowd. Showtime is more about attracting younger audiences.
Pirog hit him so hard he got cancer
>>64020222
I actually like both I just find the contrast strange.
At least it's not PBC which has garbage production values.
>>64020344
well PBC is usually on network television, while Sho and HBO are premium cable
the difference should be massive
>>64019460
>>64019340
boone is literally the goat gatekeeper
wow using your high school's band as your walk in music
pretty cool
>coming out to beiber
this shit gayer than cotto smdh
>dem hips
quillin has a pretty wife
>tfw I called Peter Quillin a cherry picker on BoxingScene and he replied to me personally
>>64020572
What did he say?
GOODNIGHT EVERYBODY
That was short
WOW
HOLY SHIT
BLOWN
THE
FUCK
OUT
The fix is in mates
DAMN that was wild
>losing in the first round
Quillin still on Queer Street lel
lel fuck quillin tbqh that is great. loses once he doesnt fight a bus driver
thoughts on the stoppage /box/?
>that fucking dance
Quillen's eyes looked fucking blank
motherfucker pulled a Rock Lee
Good thing Quillin never fought GGG lol.
>>64020729
was probably premature but idc great result
>>64020729
I agree with it he was out and it would have been extremely dangerous to let him continue
only in boxing can you see a guy's career disappear in an instant
The last right hook to the jaw was enough imo good stoppage
mother fuckers face looked bugged out
>>64020729
Quillin had no fucking clue where he was, his eyes were glossed over.
>Peter Quillin
>>64020867
wow it really is almost the same name kek
>>64020598
I got on to him about his last fight, vacating the belt and catchweights and he basically said 'you don't know what goes on behind the scenes and claimed a 162lb catchweight was fine for Zerafa'.
I liked quillin when he was calm and gracious about the draw to lee but now i like him even more
>duck Golovkin
>get BTFO by Daniel fucking Jacobs instead
loving every laugh
This is a prime example of how sometimes eating your pride and taking a knee to break the momentum and stop the other guy from beating your brain to a pulp is a good idea.
I thought for sure that would be a 12 round sparring match, jacobs explodes out of nowhere
>>64020729
Good stop, he was out and didn't know where he was. If he had his senses he would of taken a knee and an 8 count and maybe survived the round
>>64021070
I'm actually happy this happened because I think Golovkin would have literally killed him
Post webm pls :(
>>64021186
I never liked Quillen and I always hoped he got forced into a fight with GGG to shut him up. Jacobs did a great job and seems like a great guy, good night all around.
>>64021163
Probably right, but the way the ref stopped the action he could have at least dusted his gloves and asked him a question.
the referees were all round on point tonight
great job on the cuellar fight and spot on on the quillin stoppage
guy was out
GGG vs Jacobs next?
>>64021281
dude, even quillin agreed with the stoppage
no point on asking him anything, he was gone
only thing keeping him on his feet was his heart
pirog vs ggg in 2012 would have been amazing
>>64021281
that replay showed Quillin's eyes really well
they looked like a person imitating a fish out of water, the ref made the right choice to stop it right then and there imo
>>64021281
I think he stopped it because he honestly thought Quillen was going down because it looked like he was. Then he turned around to see him still up but his legs weren't there and neither was the rest of him when you saw his eyes
Guess he got his chocolate eaten.
