I mean we knew Canelo was going to win, but that was surprisingly easy.

He looked like the guy with the size and strength advantage.
I want to see him @ SMW full-time now.

Maybe if Buffer had used the full nickname Rocky might have had a chance.

Why no "from stocky"??? Conspiracy?

I'd fight Canelo for a million. I think I'd last 1-2 minutes, so ideal for a Fastcar PPV.

Mate, Rocky got stuff all for that fight. After tax and expenses I doubt he would have enough for a Eastern European hand shandy behind a skip bin.

Ha, we've all been there! If it happens during sparring it usually comes with a little red face.

I'd hope it was something like £200k. And even then, that's not great if you're seriously hurt and can't work again.

Whomever Powell picks to win a big fight, bet against him two-thirds of the time for profit!

For some reason I still remember him talking up Tyson's chances against Lewis, because he'd seen Mike in a barbershop or something and he had ‘the sheen of a fighting man’. I mean, maybe it was some wayward hairspray, Jeff?

Rocky sold the trinket, fair play to him on that front.

Needs to change it back to Michael after that though. Obviously outclassed but Fvck sake man, plant the feet and let it all hang out. Suddenly the million turns in to ten if you connect.


Anyway, Canelo will shoot back down pronto. Callum is a different world entirely. He won’t want to risk that, no chance.

They have constant talked about 7 figures.

A million bucks for the Rocky.

Are the super middle weights that bad if a smaller guy new to the weight can so easily walk through the 9th best guy in the division?

How much better would the 2nd or 1st best guy be?

As highly as some here rate Callum Smith - I would expect a similarly one sided fight for Canelo.

Lemineux gets the next pay day is my bet too.

Jacobs is next in there. The complete failure to even mention the drugs ban is pathetic. The guy is so roided up its ridiculous. His head is a different shape to what it was a few years back.

smiths waaay better then rocky, did you not see him destroy him in 1? far better all around, bigger, much more durable etc. absolutely no way should a blowout of fielding be generalized on that bases to smith, who of course destroyed rocky even faster !!

fielding being 9th or whatever doesnt mean much, there can be a huge difference between 1 and 9 or even 8 and 9. wed already seen that smith was vastly better then fielding for instance
