    Yep. Golden Boy already is talking about Canelo fighting Lemieux in the fall. Fun fight, but not what we want.

    Canelo is succeeding Mayweather as the premier Donald Duck of boxing.

      PBC was my last great hope for a super deep Fight Night. They could just pay a lump sum to PBC for all the fighters in their stable and pick and choose a few others....sigh.

        It's sad, I'm basically done following cards and only watching a select few boxers.

        GGG for obvious reasons. Casimero because he's my cousins fighter. Chocolatito.

        I mean, I'll watch everything I can and still follow the sport but my hopes for anything grand have been dumpstered.

          Dana White said on Cowherd yesterday that Floyd could get upwards of $100 million and McGregor around $75 million so fight is inching closer. Depending on how much training time Floyd will need, we could see this "fight" in October-November if not September.

            I'll see it when ever they replay it for free and maybe not even then.

                i'll see it for free or not at all.....just hoping conor provides some drama of any kind during the match. at least make it somewhat entertaining to watch. i'd be a bit worried if i were floyd in that sense. don't be surprised if conor gets disqualified for low blows/illegal blows or something like that. he has absolutely nothing to lose at all and wants to prove a point. "that's the name of the game!!"....lol.

                  Re: Boxing Off-Topic

                  Hilarious to see McGregor show his shadow boxing "skills" on Instagram as some sort of proof he knows how to box.

                  His technique is so primitive. I'm almost 52 and have done boxing training for about the last six years, with no live sparring, and I can look that fluid in a technique video. And I have no plans to fight Floyd.

                    Decent alternative card to Porter-Berto (ShowTime) tonight but I'm surprised it's PPV.

                        Porter-Berto was tough to watch for the six rounds because of the many headbutt stoppages to check BOTH fighters. After that it was all Porter until they stopped it in the ninth.

                        Great punch by 154 JermEll Charlo to end his fight. This guy is really increasing his power.

                        Interested to see who brother JermAll's first 160 pound opponent will be.

                          I wasn't able to check out the fight last night. Was at an arena football game for the first time. I will try to check it out on demand. I figured that it would be a grueling rough fight.

                            it would be interesting to see what the ppv numbers are for this one....why it's ppv is puzzling to say the least.

                              not only that, one of his sparring partners praising him and predicting a knockout for conor by the 6th round.....

                                To be honest not much of a fight to watch on replay-I lost count of how many times the fight was stopped to check fighters for headbutts. I've never seen so many interruptions. Porter's bull rush style can be interesting when he's literally draining an opponent, but last night's first six rounds were tough to watch.
