The Boxing Thread

Anyone watching the fight? Also is there an irc chat for SRK boxing?

Props to Diego for the tko win.

So they’re calling this “Canelo/Khan; Power vs Speed”. That drama tho…

those Tekken effects tho.

Has it started yet

early matches yes. But they’re doing the prelude to Canelo/Khan in between matches.

Curtis Stevens just knocked out patrick teixeira in the 2nd round

Damn. Clean shot on the jaw

FUCK!!!

That reminded me of this Lemiux fight and Lemiux hit him and he was out before he hit the ground. Dude’s head bounced off the mat. Those are the best/worst knockouts to watch.

*What everyone expected pretty much. *

Time for Canelo to fight Triple G.

Props to Amir Khan for taking the fight. I was wondering how long he could keep this up before canelo catches him.

I sort of expected Canelo to win, just not from a 6th round KO. That was one brutal straight right.

Canelo/GGG has to happen. I know this will be an actual boxing match because neither fighter will run the entire match as a strategy…

CANELOOOOO

CLEAN

Glass jaw khan got his bell rung hard. He should quit. GGG & canelo will be hype. I am all for GGG whopping canelo’s ass.
As for the heavyweight division, I feel that tyson fury is more of a talker than a boxer, and his fights are just as boring as wladimir klitchko. I am not hyped for their upcoming fight.

Just as I thought, the Mexican Drederick Tatum curbstomped Khan at a weightclass Khan had no business being in. Khan needs to take a superfight with either Kell Brook or Danny Garcia at welterweight or super lightweight. Canelo needs to quit fucking around and fight GGG already.

I don’t give two fucks about Old Man Waldimir vs (Non Fatal) Fury II…

This video + the comments are so hilarious.

That knockout reminded me of when Tyson knocked homie out from South Africa during his last come back (forgot his name). Dudes knee buckled so hard Tyson thought he broke his leg.

Homie got convicted of murder shortly after cashing that Tyson check too.

As powerful a puncher as GGG is, I don’t know that I like his style against Canelo’s punching power. You could tell that Khan’s body was bruised up just from the body punches that caught him; not sure that standing in front of Canelo to trade blows is the best idea.

Well GGG is bigger than Canelo and has more KO power, so I don’t really see Canelo trying to trade with him. Canelo isn’t the slickest dude, but he’s definitely slicker than people give him credit for and would probably try and use that style against GGG.

Also as far as Khan goes, he has a glassjaw for sure…but there aren’t many dudes that could withstand a clean overhand right from Canelo.
