Kellerman was bad but RJJ was just as bad. Ever since his dramatic slide down the rankings I think Roy takes extra pleasure in seeing established champions get beaten so it takes the shine and focus off of what happened to him.


While GGG was fighting, landing hard clean punches, Max Kellerman and RJJ were hyping up Canelo, it's undeniable. Now it's one thing to be like "Wow Canelo is taking some clean shots and it's impressive his chin is holding up" but it's quite another to be all "(GGG lands hard) OMG! Canelo is giving back better than he's taking, he's throwing combinations OMG! He's walking forward!!!!"


Yeah Tex Cobb walked forward vs a bunch of guys and got his ass beat. Foreman walked forward for the majority of the Rumble In The Jungle. Frazier walked forward in the rematch and Thrilla in Manila and he lost both of those. Ray Robinson was backing up when he clocked Gene Fullmer. JMM was backing up when he caught Pac. Floyd was backing up when he caught Hatton.


Boxing is about landing punches and not having punches land on you fullstop
