      I had no interest in this fight, and from what I'm hearing it will not be a "fight of the year" nominee. That's not a diss on your interest or pre-analysis of the fight. Appreciate your input.

      Terence Crawford destroyed Lundy last night "arousing" Bob Arum to be willing to work with hated rival Al Haymon at a Crawford-Broner 140 unification match. How do you work with a guy (Arum) that's got a $100 million suit against you?

        forgot to drop in and show a link to my show saturday - I was live on youtube for the first time which was cool. The link is here:


        a couple of fun fights, pretty weird night overall and a we lost 2 fights to medicals and injuries. They cut out the beginning but that's fine because I had to fill almost 15min anyway beforehand.

        So if you feel like watching some Canadians fight some Mexicans, well than it's your lucky day.

        Cheers fellas.

          Tony Thompson, whose biggest claim to fame is exposing the UK's David Price, gets beat up this weekend by Luis Ortiz. (HBO)

              Thompson might quit before it gets real bad.

                Nice work! Pardon my ignorance, but you're part of the broadcast team?

                Looked like a fun night of fights.

                      I think all three of Ortiz's knockdown punches were "somewhat looping" overhand lefts to the same spot on Tony Thompson's head....near the ear/ temple. I could be wrong about the location of the first one. Great power display by the big Cuban.

                        Is there nobody in Roy's life that can point out that if his career has come to this, he needs to retire?

                          Ortiz looked solid. But it was my first time seeing him. I don't think he was worried about being caught so he went for than big over the top punch. It brought some thunder when it landed. Need to see him fight someone with a better jab and quicker hands though.

                            I thought Bryant Jennings was a pretty good test for him. There's some nice talent in the heavyweight division if these guys would actually fight each other.

                            Is he paying off a couple of castles or something? He should be worth $45 million.

                              I think he lost all his money gambling on cockfights. He's was in deep to the IRS at one point. I have no sympathy for these guys that squander millions, but someone should step in and tell him to stop before he does serious damage to himself.

                                I know he was involved in cockfighting, but I didn't realize he lost money betting on it. With Roy anything is possible.

                                EDIT: It appears Deontay Wilder will be traveling to Russia to take on Alexander Povetkin.
