Boxing schedule for the month of February
- Thread starter 2-0-Sixx
- Start date
I mean sure he could be a threat but I more or less mean there is no way a B-Hop/Floyd could happen due to the difference in weight. Its possible for Floyd & GGG to fight cause the weight difference aint as big. I just think GGG shouldnt be looking to fight a tru welterweight and should focus on his division or the division above because usually go up instead of down. Got Em!!

trips and trips
Which Golovkin is. Every interview, after every fight, first thing Golovkin says is Sergio Martinez. He's only talked about Mayweather when people ask if he'd like to fight him.

Even though BHOP is really a natural mw and said he could make weight if the fight were to happen...
See above. In addition, if he hydrated to around 180 come fight night then it would be a problem. However, the main point is that Hopkins is too far off and shouldn't be calling out anyone that small.
And this is what he is doing. The only time I've seen him talk about Floyd is when others bring him up.

Well, what's left for Floyd? GBP has no big ppv names and Floyd needs big name fighters right? Don't forget, you did say Floyd wouldn't fight Canelo and he did cuz Guerrero didn't bring in the numbers Shosports wanted. Khan nor Maidana will bring 1 milli buys and the WBC might make Floyd fight the winner of Manny vs Bradley, especially if Manny wins, so Floyd might move up again. Maybe to even set up Floyd vs Martinez or Cotto? but they fuck with HBO...
What? I never said Floyd wouldnt fight Canelo. Most of u haters said that Floyd would duck Canelo. I said he shouldnt fight Canelo if anything cause of how big he is and how he balloons up in weight on fight night. Floyd aint scared of no one. I actually think Floyd will hit 1 mill buys with either Khan or Maidana actually. We will find out soon because he will be fighting one of them. Got Em!!
great fights
ESPN Friday Night Fights Delivered Excitement In Chicago Illinois!
In Chicago, Illinois Mike Tyson put on an awesome Boxing promotion televised by ESPN’s Friday night Fights. The contender Roberto Garcia won a tough split decision against Norberto Gonzales.
Gonzales was trying to force his will to set himself up for some kind of a title shot and Garcia was trying to fight his way into contention after long layoffs.
Gonzales came out blazing with great foot movement and combinations and dominated the first two rounds. Garcia was the stronger of the two but didn’t do more in those rounds.
Garcia closed the gap in the third round pushing Gonzales to the ropes and landing supreme body shots and right hooks to his head. From the start Gonzales was the busier fighter but Garcia had more powerful shots.
In the eighth Garcia was deducted a point for using his shoulder illegally.
Despite the point loss Garcia fought great punished Gonzales 64-38 in the final two rounds. The tenth round was amazing and shocked the loud crowd as they both everything including the kitchen sink. Garcia looked on the verge of a stoppage.
The final scores were 95-94 Gonzalez, 96-93, 95-94 Garcia. Garcia improved (34-3,1, 22 KOs), while Gonzales slipped to (20-3, 13 KOs).
In the co-main event the Polish fighter Kamil “Szurek” Laszczyk (16-0, 7 KOs) scored a eight round unanimous decision over former bantamweight world title challenger Daniel Diaz (20-6-1, 15 KOs). Laszczyk scored a knockdown at the end of the first round when he caught Diaz jab with an looping right. Laszczyk won almost every round by out working his competition. Scores were 79-72, 79-71, 78-73.
The first bout of the evening saw the unbeaten Ericson Lublin improve his record to 3-0-0-(3), stopping Roberto Acevedo (13-13-3) in just one round. Acevedo had a hand injury.

I actually watched those fights last night and it was on point. The Garcia/Gonzales fight was good and that point deduction came into play a bit but Garcia pulled it out. Gonzales did have good foot movement but if Garcia had of telegraphed some of the shit he was doing, he would have scored a ko.
