Canelo vs. Crawford coming up in the next 30 minutes on Netflix. Such a giant fight, such a retardedly ran sport.

Good win for Crawford, although not totally surprising. Canelo is a great, but flawed fighter. Calling Crawford outright the "GOAT of this era" is a little silly with a guy like Usyk, but Crawford is undoubtedly on the upper echelon of great welterweights. Probably the tier just below the real, all-timers at those weights (Robinson, Leonard, Hearns, Duran, Mayweather etc).

Hagler. Also Inoue is prob the greatest living.

I dont know enough about boxing or the two fighters to put any money on it - but I was fully expecting Canelo to win, not Crawford.

Hagler is definitely in there. The only potential "knock" on Inoue would be the relatively unknown quality of his resume. But he can only fight who is available to fight. He's amazing.

Really, Canelo Is great but way slower in age. Neither fighter showed anything. One is not in his prime and the other went safe

Thats part of the contract. Paul gives Joshua his biggest pay day. In exchange he drags the fight out and gives Paul a nice speech after the fight.

Joshua could've murdered Paul on the first exchange if he really wanted to. Not once did he throw any punch to the head with any effort of even 75%.

Paul breaking his jaw on essentially one decent shot shows how silly this all is. Then again, if you can make this sort of money participating in a circus, it is here to stay.

I knew he was walking the fight as soon as Round 1 and 2 went by without Joshua throwing anything at all. He did the same thing in Ngannou Round 1. With this fight, he decided to do that for a few extra rounds instead of doing what everyone knew he could do.

He kept power to sparring level by Round 4 and 5. Until the finish, he was never really trying to hit Jake.
