Would love to see Davis get a marquee fight.

And will gladly pay for Lopez-Lomachenko 2 if/when it happens.

Joshua vs Usyk is one of the biggest heavyweight fights ever and is on in four hours. Can’t wait.

 

[Mickey Massuco]

Usyk broke this guy imo.

 

[909]

Amazing fight lol.

 

[Brooklyn Zoo]

Incredible

I had Usyk 7-5. He just outworked Joshua. He caught a second wind in the last two rounds and really out an exclamation point on his performance in the 12th. Great fight

Is Wilder seriously waiting until the latest possible contract time? What a joke.

 

[909]

He’s watching this game

 

[Zetterberg is God]

Never seen anything like it but could be wrong

 

[Zetterberg is God]

Fucking great fight.

 

[Brooklyn Zoo]

Fury is clearly better but Wilder got mad heart

 

[Mickey Massuco]

I think if Wilder stuck to the initial bodywork strategy he would have won. When he kept headhunting Fury foresaw that and countered but in the first round he did a great job of keeping Fury off rhythm.

Split is 80-20 in Fury's favor, but wow.

I hope Canelo takes the Bivol/Golovkin deal. The trilogy fight will be too late in another year (if it's not already).

Canelo/Bivol official (May 7th)

 

[Mickey Massuco]

Big fight, another credible guy for Canelo to school.

 

[AA484]

Catterall bigly robbed

Big fight, another credible guy for Canelo to school.

Probably the most challenging fight for him at this point. I know he flirted with moving to cruiser, but I like this (or a prospective follow-up fight with Beterbiev) better. Would be fun to see him against Briedis at some point, but I'm not sure how or if that fits in the grand scheme of boxing politics.

 

[Brooklyn Zoo]

Should’ve bet it all

 

[909]

Yeah I bigly fucked up and put Canelo in a parlay even though I knew that could happen.

 

[snuffbox]

Third fight with GGG should be next, not a rematch, imo. Rematching Bivol would be like Shane Mosely-Winky Wright.

Are people gonna be chatting for Kambosos vs Haney?

 

[909]

Are people gonna be chatting for Kambosos vs Haney?

Yeah I'll be around.

 

[alkeiper]

I’m not much of a live chatter but I’m watching the fight.

 

[Mickey Massuco]

clearcut win for Haney, interested ot see him fight guys like Loma and Garcia but he may move up. But then again Tank and Garcia will probably move up too.

 

[AA484]

116-112 on rewatch. I thought it was fairly close until about halfway through and Haney just pulled away.

He's still got it!

 

[Mickey Massuco]

I know it was a showcase fight, but nobody has beaten fortuna like that. Tank vs Garcia is the fight to make but at 140 is better for Garcia. I don’t think he can make 135 comfortably anymore.
