Things I took away from tonight's fight.....

He shouldn't have been there in the first place.
That much is clear.

In hindsight we can say that, sure. I didn't hear anybody calling it a gross mismatch beforehand, though.

One of my if not my biggest pet peeves of modern day boxing. The speed in which people are written off.

Lose a fight and you are overrated. Pathetic. Drive through fucking boxing.

It is not just boxing. This is the philosophy of the modern world nowadays

Good point. Still considering what this sport entails it should set itself apart from this plastic instant gratification world.

I remember Roy Jones was expressing this thought, that boxing commentators always "beat" fighters, especially after they fail. They are labeled washed up / over the hill immediately

Its much bigger then the bearded clams that are calling the fights. They are all paid for lackeys. Lucas loses the fight to Garcia and he is overrated. Its a crock of shit and the logic comes in the shape of a pretzel.

No kidding. Not to mention plenty of people on here had a pretty good handle on what Alvarez was bringing to the fight, and he didn't let anyone down. If Floyd hadn't fought him now Alvarez would've kept looking good and have people screaming that Mayweather was ducking him. The same people who will now say he " clearly shouldn't have been there".
