Oh I see. Insulin. How :dunno:
By a pancreas shot , like Oscar :dunno:
Heh :dunno:
I think Hearns had the potential to be the greatest 160lb fighter of all time. He shouldn't lose to Golovkin. Golovkin would need a hail-mary...
There it is, in black and white........"game changer, if there is one, that's it". And.........I noted that Golovkin was not facing a man much...
For example, Canelo Alvarez or Victor Ortiz being heavier than Floyd was not a game changer, due regard being had to the disparity in skills...
:lol: The three people who gave the 4th to Jacobs The disparity in collective scoring is stunning. People giving the 11th and 12th to Jacobs is...
:lol: Nobody, nobody here can ever say I gave a fuck one way or the other about Golovkin. I just happened to watch his fight last night as it...
I did no such thing.
That's not even remotely a decent analogy. And I never said Jacobs cheated. I said his coming in heavier was a "game changer"- in fact I checked...
Again, Jacobs saw profit in coming in as heavy as he did, forfeiting the title in exchange for a shot at victory.
He had cancer of the fucking jaw at the time.
The only three people that could have scored the fight either way were Eugenia Williams, Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder. GGG is the favourite. He...
Why did Jacobs put the weight on, if he didn;t feel there was an advantage to it :dunno:
Which is why I drew a distinction between the "functional weight advantages" of people like Victor Ortiz and Canelo on one hand and that of...
Caveat means "Beware". I think that when a competent fighter is heavier, it will colour the result or the proceedings somewhat. I find plenty...
Agreed. The fact that Golovkin didn't stop him doesn't constitute a failure or an inability, by the same token.
JAcobs looked pretty spent at the end.I will be v interested to see how he does in his next competitive fight.

You seem to think it's a question of morals our outrage. It's not, at least not for me. I am only looking at it in terms of the cold hard...
I have spent the morning reading about Golovkins "failure" and "Inability" to KO Jacobs. It's all about expectancy and it's all about perception.
HAtton weighed in at 145 for his fight with Floyd. Hatton never had difficulty at 140 until the drugs and drink got to him in his last few...
Which is fine, but people have to accept that preconceptions count for shit. Ali should have blown Wepner away after 4 rounds, by conventional...
The weight is significant because it changes the immediate physical aspect of the fight. Suppose you have two equal fighters, one of whom makes...
Yes, good analogy, pressure changes everything. It's worth pointing out,and it says a lot about the mentality that people had about Jacobs not...
Again, there is a sanguine, relaxed almost casual value to GGG at times. Alvarez leaps in and generates, as Manny Steward would say, great...
Precisely. Jacobs can afford to carry extra weight and use it to good advantage, Alvarez basically uses extra weight because, essentially, he's a...
Jacobs was all elbows and forearms and height and made far better use of his "functional weight advantage" than Alvarez does. It's a totally...
"Millions of midgets. Illegal midgets. Undocumented Midgets. Ask anyone"
Also....Kellerman is a fool. Alvarez poses NO THREAT to GGG that GGG didn;t overcome tonight.
