Paul is absolutely gassed after five rounds, and ready to go. But he's given a respectable effort, especially for someone at his level (which is the ground floor).

Nobody should trash Fulton for his performance against Inoue. He dared to be great by traveling to Japan to take on a fighter who will likely go down as that nation's greatest boxer ever. Anyone who doubts Inoue's ability or accomplishments going forward is a fool

People who want Loma out of the P4P rankings forget he did this in his 12th pro bout, his third weight class, and then he added the IBF and WBC belts to his 135-pound collection. (Those same haters are probably mad the 3-div. champ recaptured his matrix form in his last 2 bouts)

I don't know why Woodley didn't let his hands go against a totally gassed boxing novice, but I guess he's simply unable to deal with lateral movement. Whatever. It was an entertaining bout despite the lack of punching on both sides.

I've got it 7 rounds to 5 for Porter, so with the knockdown 114-113. I don't expect the judges (or much of the Twitterverse) to agree with my card. Regardless, it was a GREAT fight. Both welterweights delivered. Fight of the Year front-runner, IMO.

Unified titleholder at 40, collecting an 8-figure purse in Japan, not a bad weekend for GGG, whose form reminds me of the mid-90s Julio Cesar Chavez. JCC was still a punishing craftsman but had to work hard to beat contenders that he would've dominated in his prime.

I hope Conlan didn't hit his head on the floor. I've always wanted boxing commissions to pad the hard floors that surround the ring. Conlan was taken out like B-Hop was in his last bout vs. Joe Smith Jr. and nobody should be allowed to hit concrete after getting KO'd.

I know a 3rd fight with Canelo is on tap but we don't have define GGG's career on those two fights or his rivalry with the Mexican star. And we don't have to evaluate every GGG fight through the lens of how we think he'd perform against Canelo. (I'm guilty of doing this, too.)

This is how a professional should react to a loss. I'm sure Josh will come back stronger (and smarter) from this experience.
