Is Clenelo's legacy ruined?

    Whether the rematch goes forward or not, and whether he wins it or not, is it already safe to say that the little spurt fighter's legacy is badly damaged, if not ruined?

    At the end of the day, 20 years from now, Clenelo might just be remembered as a guy who got schooled by Floyd and turned to the juice.

    You need to first have a legacy before you can ruin it.

    I don’t think it will affect him that much in the long run. Look at how many other fighters have been linked to PEDs and it’s not too often talked about. In the end, Canelo will probably be a good to very good fighter who was very popular. I think people will remember the judges favoring him more than him using PEDs

    If he wins, nobody will care about the clen thing, bar a marginal fringe of the boxing world.

    Hell toney tested positive for deca, which is a million times more potent than clen, and nobody refer to him as a drug cheat

    This...

    He'll Be Remembered as "Golden Boy LITE", the Biggest NAME in Boxing (In Terms of Consistently Generating Revenue) in the Post-Money May Era...

    agREED on the PED Thing Having NO Significance @ All, and the Controversial Decisions Carrying More Weight, in Regards to Legacy...

    Golovkin 2 is Probably Canelo's LAST Chance to Prove He's a GREAT Fighter...

    He'll be remembered as a good fighter, but in this day and age, when PED users seem to get a pass by the masses, it probably won't be as big down the line as it is now.

    nice context, frenchy fuckwit

    Toney was also 37 years old and 60+ pounds from his best weight.

    so what you dumbfuck?

    Unless you want to claim that it is acceptable to use PED under some circumstances

    Wold you give a shit if it was determined that Tyson juiced in the Kevin McBride fight?

    I don't really mind if any fighter juices. But let's not pretend that the Ruiz fight was irrelevant for Toney legacy

    Back to your question, if Tyson got caught roiding against McBride, It would have put a cloud of suspicion over the rest of his carreer

    It was totally irrelevant to Toney's legacy

    Yeah, a fight where a former mw is fighting for a hw title, has no bearing on his legacy
    Another fine proof of your imbecilty, and another reminder of why it's futile to try to have a discussion with you

    lol heavyweight "title"

    Maybe to you and mikE

    Anyway it should be fairly obvious that I was saying the PED thing itself had zero effect on his legacy

    Proof? Until you brought it up, I'd forgotten about it... I suspect many would say the same

    Toney's legacy is that he was once the world's best Middleweight

    I don't see it at all, but I guess we have to entertain the possibility of cardiac Dan being correct.

    Derevanchenko would be ideal for Golov, because he's an offensive fighter who's there to be hit.

    Golov would not look good against BSJ, even though he'd win.

    golovkin vs derevyanchenko is a more interesting fight than a alvarez rematch, to me
     
  24. Xplosive

    Xplosive X-MOD Bad Motherfucker

    I think so as well.

    I'm not super excited about the rematch anyway, so I don't give a shit if it's cancelled.

    If the rematch gets cancelled, my prediction is Golov fights that punching bag Spike O'Sullivan.

    -3 defeats that should be erase from Cotto's record.......Margarito, Pacquiao and Canelo....

    I feel the same way. The first fight really didn't live up to the hype for me, it was merely decent. Canelo is just a fairly boring fighter, and I don't see the rematch being much different.

    Really surprised though if the fight is cancelled, I thought this suspension was just a front for sure.

    I could see if they were close fights but he got killed in two of them

    Please don't let Sly see this. Soon he'll be pushing the narrative of "Only ONE MAN beat Cotto without cheating."
