    I watched a tape of "GGG v. Alvarez 1" yesterday afternoon, and yes, Alvarez looked pretty big... bigger than Triple-G; of course, I hadn't known about Alvarez's problem with PEDs, which explains a lot of what happened: PEDs can only take you so far, even with a strong foundation, and the fight that *I* saw should've gone to GGG. Whatever.

    Later in the evening I watched the Ramirez v. Orozco fight; I found it interesting how their physical builds so closely paralleled those of GGG and Alvarez; even more interesting was how -- despite Orozco's relentless pursuit -- Ramirez so dominated the action.

    Sadly, I won't be ponying-up the $79.95 to watch "GGG v. Alvarez 2" on PPV. Without the benefits of PEDs, my "money" is on Triple-G. Film at 11.
    You can have everything, and still not have enough.
    I'd give it all up, for just a little more.

    My monies on GGG too, he reminds me of British middle weights of the 90s: Eubank, Ben and Collin. They were just great fighters with hearts of lions.

    Taking clenbuterol would mean Alvarez could train hard without the worry of depleting strength and muscle which cutting weight leading up to a fight is renowned to do.

    I will be downloading that in the morning.
    Yesterday I watched the Tyson fury fight.
    Because I don't read newspapers or watch tv never know this stuff is on.

    Believe me though, I know Conor is fighting Khabib.
    What's your predictions Mark?

    To be honest Joe I dont know much about Khabib, Conors been out of the game for a while now and living the celeb lifestyle. Has he still got the hunger to be the best mma fighter? I'm not sure. All I can say from past fights is that his speed, timing and technique is flawless add in being an awkward fighter and you've got yourself something special.

    Conor will probably get rag dolled but I hope not

    Wow! What a fight! We have a new middleweight champion of the world.
    In what was an exciting toe to toe rematch, for me, it was too hard to call. Alvarez looked sharper but GGG landed more heavier punches, they seemed to reverse styles as Alvarez came forward at a relentless pace and GGG was counter boxing.

    To me it was very close and could have easily been a draw again. Both fighters are true champions and gave the world a spectacular show of modem day gladiators to which I salute them.
