Alex 35093 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Aye. Think Ortiz presents more of a challenge like. Although it's difficult to assess how good Ortiz actually is because he hasn't fought anyone of note. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21924 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Wilder is the interesting one next summer once he gets the two mandatory challengers out of the way. After that, who else is here left in the division worth him bothering with? Fury I suppose, if he can get his act together, to play the villain to sell the fight. After that, fuck knows.

Alex 35093 Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 And you get the feeling Joshua wants it a lot more than Wilder. It would also be a big fight (due to it being an all British affair) if Hughie Fury were to beat Parker to set up a fight with Joshua. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll still be tweeting he's the real champ for the next 20 years or so though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35093 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 He did that against Brook when he had some joy against GGG in the 3rd or 4th round. Before proceeding to break his face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 35093 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 2 hours ago, Ant said: GGG for me , Canelos improved and he's bulked up as well but hoping the age isn't going to matter for GGG and he takes canelos head off, Canelo was ducking him until now sadly. I don't think Canelo has the chin GGG has as well which is what gives me a bit more hope, he's been rocked in his earlier years by smaller hitters, Cotto rocked him as well, and GGG has this knack of throwing a big hitter while taking one, he doesn't seem to shy away when he sees a punch coming to land (i say big hitter, all GGG does is throw hard/thudding shots with either hand, just constant power and pressure, he just grinds people down, as opposed to having a "knock out punch") least it's happening when GGG is 35 as opposed to 40 and canelo being in his early 30's In fairness to Canelo, he's a genuine light middleweight fighting the best middleweight for about 10 years.

That's it. The reason professional boxing is largely boring is because there are so many mismatches and so few genuine match-ups against top class opposition.
