Wilder's brain is too small for that.

You guys are so unfair to Andrade and Ramirez. They should be ahead of Wilder.

That is just plain ridiculous. In literally every other sport athletes are WAY better conditioned now than a 100 years ago, but boxing is so special that it is the other way around.

Re: What is your p4p top 20 ever in order, take time

Is it that hard to understand that everything is relative? A hooligan from a bad neighborhood may also win 45 fights in a month and be tough as nails, but he wouldn't be able to compete with professional boxers. I am sure there were ancient Greeks who were tough as nails and beating everybody left a...

Re: What is your p4p top 20 ever in order, take time

To think that Greb can beat any of current top professional boxers or even be remotely competitive is as ridiculous as thinking that runners, swimmers, gymnasts, soccer players from 1920s can compete with top modern athletes. Here we go again with the other sport comparisons..it's laughable I'll ta...

Andrade can compile a big list of top fighters he did NOT fight at 154 and 160.

Re: Tell me how GGG's career ranks above Wilder's

Golovkin is definitely on Hopkins level.

Let's not forget Bernard's theatric performances against Allen and Dawson, two losses to Taylor and one to Calzaghe.

Fighters age differently. Hopkins was still in his prime at 40.

Re: Felix Sturm gets three year jail sentence

Macklin was robbed bad but Sturm didn't always get favorable treatment from the judges in Germany. Murray, Geale and the first Soliman fight were all close fights that reasonably could have gone his way but the judges didn't give any of them to Sturm. Sturm should have got the nod against Murray im...

I don't see why he couldn't last until 36, he probably starts to slip before then though.
He could last, but he doesn't need to. So if he has brains, he will retire earlier.

Re: Devin Haney said he'd 'never let a white boy' beat him

I am guessing Loma is too young to be considered a boy yet, because he would beat Haney now.

Haney needs to follow a well known pattern (Floyd,Canelo) of not fighting top opponents in their prime and wait till Loma is old enough to be considered a beatable boy.
