you have to look at wins too, kinda lame to list a guy like gassiev as though thats some big negative when gassiev also became a unified champ this year in a good performance
and i think a guy like martin, no matter who trained him , simply wasnt beating taylor
tbh, i cant remember enough context from roachs 2012 to make a call

I understand what you're saying. Truth is, both had more losses than wins I think those years.
For some reason, us 'humans' tend to always focus on negatives than positives..
TBF, to support what you're saying, most losses were against good boxers. True 50-50 fights.

Reminds me that Sanchez has had a horrible year. Yeah, Madiev was getting outboxed by Cano. He had no answer.
