Comments Thread For: Rosado-Monroe Winner Could Get Canelo Next, Says Golden Boy VP

Andy Lee can punch.

Willie can't knock over a box of cereal.

Agreed, Andy Lee is dangerous for Canelo. The guy is resilient, can punch and has a big heart.

Canelo can take a punch, he can't really deal with movement though which is why I think Monroe is the tougher fight. Lee will be there to be hit all night long, and Canelo has looked brilliant in the past slipping punches from guys a lot faster than Lee.

Many argued with me that Rosado was dangerous when BJS turned him down and the GGG fanatics say Monroe is legit

Careful what you say

They were legit before GGG beat them up to the body and head for 6+ rounds. You can only take so many beatings like that before your reflexes aren't the same. And by so many, it may just be one when you're talking someone like GGG. Look how Martin Murray couldn't beat Groves or anyone decent since GGG. I think Monroe lost too? Rosado lost every round to Charlo. Both are still decent fighters who are better tests than the average tuneup at 160, because Rosado at least has some power and Monroe speed... could be decent fights since Canelo is overrated, but you can bet they're probably not as good as they were before GGG fought them.

They werent that good when GGG fought them

Like when Golovkin refused to fight Ward. Rosado had already lost to Ennis, Guerrero and Angulo in 2 when Golovkin cherry picked him.

Ward's own trainer says Ward walks around at 200 lbs outside the gym. GGG walks around at 170. Ward is naturally 30 pounds heavier than him, which is why he fights two divisions above and even at 168, was, according to his own trainer, "a scaled down light heavyweight."

So either Andre Ward's own trainer is a liar, or you, sir, are a dumba**.

Rosado had looked dominant at 154 on NBCSN, on a winning streak I think 6 fights, and GGG had the flu when they fought. Monroe had just won the ESPN tournament. Neither was a top 3 middleweight like Lemieux or Murray but both were much better than before GGG beat them up.

Oscar and Canelo keep making things worst with every comment, this is embarassing.

Murray gave Groves and Abraham tough fights, that shouldn't hurt his reputation as a decent fighter.

Monroe hasn't lost, he just effortlessly beat John Thompson (who Liam Smith won the vacant WBO title against).

It's worth mentioning Rosado lost every round to Charlo after moving back down to 154, after spending the previous year fighting Golovkin, Love, and Quillin at 160. Rosado beat the bigger JLeon Love and was giving Quillin all he could handle before the cut caused by Golovkin opened back up. But yeah, Gabe looks shot. He fought in that BKB against Vera & Stevens and took some big hits during those fights. Then he came back and fought Lemieux and got his orbital broken.

Monroe is a bum

Oscar is waiting for GGG to get old.

The ****** thing is that 154 is dead
