Comments Thread For: Daily Bread Mailbag: Cutting weight, 'Zurdo's' hall-of-fame credentials, Julio Cesar Chavez, and Floyd Mayweather's energy efficiency

[A.B Counterhooks]

This mailbag particularly good, a lil bit of everything.

Zurdo is a solid mexican champion but still quite lot to prove to even consider him future HOF. Also, I think Berlanga could at least survive inside a ring with Benavidez lol call me crazy I know, but he does have some skills and power,not saying he'd win but even if he gets stopped I dont think it would be a career ender.

Most thought Benny would stop Plant and he was unable to. His power is overrated imo.

Twice officially. Perfectly reasonable to believe it should have been more.

Duh....,yeah ! My point.All that counts is official,belief ain't nothing but opinion. We all have one .Bread should have stated it was only an opinion. Like his opinion that Boots is an all time great he can be wrong.

Zurdo HOF? C'mon...

Canelo got outpointed a few times ? What the actual F ? Twice you sneaky low key hater .

——-
Canelo was out pointed by Floyd, Bivol, Lara and GGG. Those count as a few times.
Just because he got the highway robbery decision, does not mean he was not outpointed.

How many fighters have won titles at super middleweight and cruiserweight? Can't be many. Not saying that should get him in or anything.

All around good mailbag but I don’t think there is anything Zurdo could do, to realistically be considered for the Hall of fame. That borders on blasphemy.

I disagree.

He beats Opetaia & has a decent reign at 200 & he will be in the HOF.

How many people have won belts at 168 & 200???

Barely read this anymore. Unsurprisingly, breads rascism is at it again: a guy like Bam needs to fight better fighters to be p4p champ, although he’s beat the best in the division. It’s not good enough for Bread. But Boots gets a freebie. He doesn’t have to face the best to be considered the best. Seriously WTF does this guy have against Latinos?

He compared him to Usyk and Crawford, who beat top guys in their prime who were similar age or younger.

Bam has beat elite too, but they were ten years or more older than him.

That was his point.

To topple Usyk, Inoue, and Usyk, he has to also beat p4p guy who is in his prime or at least similar age.

Stop using emotions and actually use logic

I see this way too much on this site. Whenever someone says anything negative or less complimentary about a fighter , people jump to the conclusion that they must be racist. Believe it or not , someone can say something negative about a fighter and it has absolutely nothing to do with their race. It's like people are just looking with a microscope for something to be offended about. Racism is not behind every critique of a fighter or any other person. Someone absolutely can and do critique others for reasons that have nothing to do with their race .

. I know the bat has been lowered with the hall of fame but this would be an extreme stretch.

That’s just like the duck motto
Tge minute a fighter refuses a
fight , he’s made into a duckster
I know why but it still don’t make it alright
