Canelo fights at 168.. Jake is fairly big lad, why doesn't he call out a 200 pounder and stop being a pussy

Canelo would spark him senseless regardless of the size difference

not to sure of that.. Canelo would win but there is zero evidence that a smaller guy would spark Jake

This must be a piss take? Canelo would absolutely destroy him. The evidence is the only 'boxer' he fought beat him. Or do you think Tommy fury has a chance against canelo.

Wtf are you talking about? Canelo destroys Jake.

I give credit to Jake for trying to make that fight happen.

He knows he gets pieced up in that encounter, but he'll do it for the money and attention, and good on him, I say.

Jake isn't really trying to make that fight happen, come on

Anyone know if this is televised tonight - https://boxrec.com/en/event/907996

He probably would KO Jake but there is a chance he'd struggle to KO him, size difference is huge.... Mayweather tried to KO Logan although he makes out he wasn't trying and failed but still won convincingly.

For the record I think he'd destroy Jake, I just think he'd struggle to KO him which isn't that outlandish.. size difference is huge and he seems to take a punch pretty well.

A river would be nice.

I doubt there'll be rivers around for this one. I didnt even know it was on until me and a colleague were randomly talking about Aokuso and checked his boxrec today

Proper PPV. People are underestimating/forgetting Mundine appeal

It was a different time, pre social media marketing and shit yet his debut was on PPV.

His career is semi underrated too. Wins over Green (I thought he won the rematch too), Geale, Mosely, Solimon no slouch, & lost to Kessler.

We watched them all the time . Think they started at $29 then went up with Mundibe coming on the scene

Worst ever was Joe Bugner vs Tony Tucker ( i think ) we got it for free.
Think it went two rounds , Tucker did a shoulder and quit ......Bugner then jumped around the ring celebrating winning a 'heavyweight title'.....those were the days

Weird tiny venue for this Stan event. Might be worth marketing them when you're putting on a show...

Will be impossible tonight, I'm just going to watch the draft. Aokuso has real potential I reckon, it's actually a worthy enough main event.

Apparently got offered a huge pay cut day of the fight so he pulled out
