    Okay don't get all cocky, its not like AJ blew Wlad out of there in a round or two, he had AJ on the verge of a KO twice, and had Smith Jr. not got a broken jaw in the 2nd friggin round, he would have bombed Barrera's ass out of there as well, he almost did it in the first. So even in losing, I was almost right. As far as the DeGale match, I had DeGale winning slightly, but I rescored it and had it a draw as well. Even Blackclouds who was rooting for Jack had it a draw. Jack could have won, but not by a blowout of any kind.

    Where's the evidence Jack was struggling to make weight against any of his recent opponents? I don't recall seeing him near death on the scales like Geale and Chavez Jr. He made the weight perfectly fine, and for the record, Canelo moved up in weight, has less power, Chavez Jr. moved up in weight, has less power, Walters, moved up in weight has less power, Broner moved up in weight has less power, Garcia and Garcia moved up in weight have less power. Most weight cutters cut weight for a reason, their power is more devastating against smaller guys, and less so against guys their own size.

    Next best thing is probably Tabiti/Cunningham which could be interesting assuming Cunningham has anything left... Although it has all of makings of Cunningham being a sacrificial lamb to put Tabiti over. Everything else? Complete and utter mismatches. $100 for this joke of a card? No thanks!

    I'll be there with bells on, because I'm a real fan, my morbid curiosity is getting the best of me with the main event and I want to see the two matches you mentioned on the undercard.

    What the **** are you talking about you goddamn cretin. Who am I a fanboy of? Whyte? I don't give a **** about Whyte. the only fanboy here is you, why else do you think you're having such an emotional reaction to people criticizing this fat headed little slow adult.

    Like many people have suggested.. The right way to go about the card was to stack this card top to bottom(which they easily could have) to appease the casuals and hardcores alike, as well as retaining some long term credibility. Porter? There's a **** ton of options certainly better than Dulorme for him, Tank Davis? Let's not even get started there...

    Its not what I'd call an awesome card, and 100 dollars that's ****ing repulsive, but, there's enough on it to intrigue me, as afar as Porter, goes, he's on the free portion.:lol: They should swap he and The Midget Tank's spots.

    who cares. gervonta is young. they tried getting salido then rocky in there . it didnt go as planned. the fight is approaching they needed some one in there . they got it done.

    the undercard is good for a ppv event like this. were not gonna remember the undercard. were gonna want these fights to be over with so we can see what we really paid for.

    but we cant complain about tabit vs ussr / jack vs clev/ and davis vs this joe smo. its a solid undercard no doubt

    and there showing porter vs dulorme on the prelims this card is good people.

    keep in mind nowone cares to much about the undercard of a big ppv event. were just hoping these fights get over with so we can see the main event.

    as for the jack vs cleverly debate. jack should be favored. even though moving up in weight. fighting a guy whos been in some tough fights. should be close entertaining fight but jack should get out of there with a win . close fight tho im pickin jack. its jacks time . cleverly is on his way out.

    He may have the same power or less but at this time this is a much better weight for him, and he will have a better camp because of it too. I'm picking him to win because I think he's the better fight, I quite like Clev, he's been in some entertaining fights and will travel anywhere.

    You realize Jack is a TMT fighter? This is a TMT/USADA/NSAC sponsored event, Clev has no chance of winning this on the cards, I'd actually be more impressed with Clev decision than him KO'ing Jack. Well in my mind neither are happening.

    What kind of boxing fan would pay for that absolute farce of a main event? The undercard should be a lot better to make up for this absolute joke of a fight, any non lackey should obviously agree. Davis vs. Fonseca is an awful fight, Fonseca has fought absolutely no one... and was an underdog against the fight he pulled out of for this as well. Likewise Porter/Delorme is also not a very good fight, if anything it's just a showcase tune up fight for Porter... There are TWO semi-interesting fights on this card and that's Tabiti/Cunningham and Clev/Jack. Everything else is a joke... This "event" sucks.
