This part is so silly to me, but what do i know?:
"Northern Irishman Frampton has threatened to pull out of Saturday's bout because he feels Bury-born Quigg has the better dressing room."
Yeah that's fucking retarded

I'm a casual boxing fan, question for the hardcores: With GGG, what's the consensus among the boxing community on how he'd fare vs. Canelo, Ward, etc.? I imagine hardcore boxing fans would heavily favor Floyd if that superfight ever hypothetically went down, right? I know GGG recently put it on Cotto pretty good, he seems to have great punching power and a strong chin but does get hit in the head a lot. Can anyone carve him up? I apologize if these points have already been addressed ad nauseum...didn't read. :eek:

GGG beats Canelo. Ward is 2 weight classes above GGG it's not a realistic fight. GGG would be the favorite vs. FMJ and GGG has never fought Cotto. Cotto ducked him like the plague.

Canelo is about 5 pounds heavier than GGG
canelo is only 5'8" he was the same height as mayweather. GGG is a legit 5'10".5 I think that would help him vs Canelo even though the reach is the same at 70".

I don't think height would play a role. GGG is just a superior fighter than Canelo. Canelo is a very good fighter,he can punch and he has great reflexes. GGG is just a completely different animal. He hits harder,has a better jab,better footwork,a better chin,is better conditioned. Canelo's only advantage is speed and youth but Golovkin's body attack would probably negate that.

The wee Carl Frampton wins via SD in a boring ass fight unifying the WBA and IBF belts.

I wish to see GGG vs. Floyd.

Although Floyd probably tools him, it is a very intriguing fight. Floyd could use one more big payday I think.

I highly doubt that at this stage
