dark-destroyer-85 636 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 (edited) that breazeale has the makings of a very good fighter. any of those three would be a decent match, i wouldnt call any an easy option. that ortiz looks very handy too, reckon he could trouble anybody Problem with Ortiz he's quite old now and seen as high risk low paythats the problem now it's all about money if your the champ you gotta fight the best and that's not a dig at aj lots of boxers look for the big payday where it should be you want to prove your the best boxer on the planet not richest that's why I've never liked mayweather always picked who he wanted to fight and ducked and dived from others imo Edited April 18, 2016 by dark-destroyer-85 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gnasher16 30,217 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 thats the problem now it's all about money if your the champ you gotta fight the best and that's not a dig at aj lots of boxers look for the big payday where it should be you want to prove your the best boxer on the planet not richest that's why I've never liked mayweather always picked who he wanted to fight and ducked and dived from others imo When has it ever been any different ?.....the heavyweight championship of the world is the richest prize in sport......when Buster Douglas beat Tyson he didnt even bother training for his next fight and virtually walked into the ring and laid down as he knew his life was already changed forever.......sadly in heavyweight boxing sometimes one fight or one punch can change everything........only a real competitor truly wants to unify and defend titles......look at Fury now he,s constantly talking about retiring having achieved his goal already......some sportsmen just dont have that true competitive edge to them,others like Holyfield/Ali etc have too much of it and end up fighting way too long. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MickC 1,825 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 I follow all the British Heavyweights and they will make a lot of money fighting each other. Thing is though if Fury had not beaten Wlad then Joshua would not have had the chance to fight and then win the IBF title. Had Wlad won he would have kept all the belts and Joshua would have been at the back of a long queue to fight him. I didn't agree with the IBF stripping Fury of the belt as after all they had been paid the sanctioning fees but although unfair to Fury who won that belt fair and square in the ring,by stripping Fury of that belt it has generated a lot more interest in the heavyweight Division.

Astanley 11,568 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Sometimes when I am enjoying a pint of guiness in my local ,I settle down to have a natter about football or boxing in good company with interesting fellas who I don't mind admitting know a bit more than me ,then some tosser ,know all with a bad attitude crashes the company and gives everyone the benefit of his ignorance and fuks things up ,I groan inwardly get my pint and sit elsewhere waiting for them to shut up ,.....that's how I feel reading these threads sometimes . 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
