    Hope he doesn't retire but understand if he does.

    Boxing is so corrupt! Amanda Serrano was robbed!

    scorecards were way too kind to canelo but the right man won. sucks for ggg if they go the rematch route and tbh i dont see how canelo wins a rematch. just bit off more than he could chew but credit to him for taking the challenge when easier fights were available

    Respect to Canelo for fighting hungry fighters in their prime, regardless of name recognition. However, I’ve seen so many articles in the last few months of him talking about everything outside of the fight, like this:



    He didn’t learn the lessons of Rocky III.



    He didn’t have the eye of the tiger.

    Boxing really fell off for me after HBO stopped airing matches. HBO made boxing feel important. Iconic music intros too.

    Haha. Understandable. Was way closer than I expected. I thought that Tank was going to get him out of there within 4. Ryan Garcia being ringside was interesting. I think he's too big for Tank but he can't take a punch which makes it interesting

    There were talks that he would leave mayweather promotions but that turned out to be false so forget him fighting Ryan, Teo, or Haney

    He'll continue to be feed favorable matchups and later complain that he never got the big fights

    Joshua officially done fighting for titles for awhile. Fury going to beat up Usyk... too f*cking small.

    Great fight, but Joshua still too limited and barely throwing combinations, which saved Usyk a couple of times probably.

    Agree with @KingCheetah that Fury would beat up Usyk tho, he's basically a bigger version of him.
