    Talk about being delusional...said the same after the fight.

    its definitely more coming from a place of "I cant believe I ****ed that up" rather than him disputing the decision.

    He talked at length in the post fight about how tysons movement and length troubled him and he wasn't able to get off his right. definitely knew he lost.

    Klitschko has a rematch clause first.

    Klitschko today announced there'll be a rematch, likely next May and at Wembley.

    Yeah the dude with superhuman middleweight punching power is really going to struggle with a career welterweight.

    So?

    People are not trying to knock each other senseless in sparring.

    There are weight classes for a reason.

    Did you know that GGG has actually spoken about those sparing sessions and said what they were actually trying to do in them?

    footage of him vs Chavez Jr and Mosley with him pulling his punches, and he's going to obliterate a welterweight in a sparring session? Sure

    I think Mayweather should have fought Bradley for his last fight, but Paq v Brad 3 is a pretty good event. Bradley is much better skill wise IMHO than he was during the first 2 fights -- will be a good fight.

    Mayweather would rather kill someone than generate a dollar for bob arum.

    Although I'm not excited about the fight, I can't deny that Bradley is a very good fighter. Some call it a rubber match, but come on...haha.

    I would have rather seen Pac fight someone we haven't seen yet. Khan, Broner, Crawford, etc.

    Personally, I would have loved something like Crawford. I mean it's your last fight for Pac. Either pass the torch, or show you still got it if you can win the fight. Crawford would have to be able to move up I would think. No idea if Manny can come down to 140 again.
