Canelo-Munguia was a fight that delivered enjoyment and smiles. Canelo turned back the clock, reminding fans how devastating he can be as a combination puncher. And Munguia was determined to bring it to Canelo all fight. They both succeeded. My column:

โ€œMasterclassโ€ is used far too liberally. Fury-Wilder 2 was a punch-perfect masterclass. Last night was a very good performance by Usyk in a competitive fight. The โ€œmasterโ€ in the masterclass doesnโ€™t normally look like this; he would barely be touched.

Kind of sad that Terence Crawford has been inactive for 9 months for no particular reason, and it will be 11 or 12 before he's back in the ring. He's not hurt and is one of the stars of the sport. Inactivity is an unappealing aspect of contemporary boxing.

I hope all those who dismissed Wilder, called him a fraud, or worse, give him the respect he deserves. He was a formidable opponent and dropped Fury four times in the series. Fury proved he was better, but he had to endure gutcheck after gutcheck to do so.

I'm hoping that future boxing fans will revisit Deontay Wilder like many of us did with Julian Jackson. These aren't perfect fighters. But they're special punchers that come along once a generation. Too many focused on what they couldn't do instead of what they did.
