    HAha. Intellectual dishonesty. The definition in the dictionary (just looked it up) describes them absolutely perfectly.

    I wouldn't go as far as to describe it as 'still on' but it's not yet off.

    Gotta feeling they will both face bums on the same card to 'marinate' their future fight like LSC and Mares just did.

    WBC heavyweight champion canceling the title fight because local Alabama football team is taking all the viewers.

    The Alabama vs LSU game is likely to be at 3:30 eastern time. How on earth does that conflict with a fight at night?

    starting to look like that. Reminding me of Danny Garcia. comes out looking great and then doesn't defend his title and just talks. Wastes a lot of years.

    I'm not a Wilder fan, but people who aren't in the South don't realize how big of a deal college football is here. Alabama and Auburn football is a religion to people in Alabama and everyone in the state spends their Saturdays watching college football. LSU vs Bama is one of the biggest SEC games of the year and would definitely prevent a lot of Alabama Wilder fans from making the trip...nothing comes before the Tide in Tuscaloosa. I would try to fight on an open date for Bama if I was him.

    Kevin Iole of Yahoo!, one of the most respected boxing/MMA reporters in the business, reporting this morning that the fight is on for Nov. 4 at Barclays.

    All this shows is that Ryan O'Hare, whoever that is, has no reliable sources. And that people will condemn a fighter based on bad reporting rather than on reality.

    Yes, Michael Benson and Boks Dunyasi (Turkish insider) also confirm that the deal is done, although not yet officially announced. I wouldn't be surprised if they are waiting for Canelo-GGG to be over before announcing it.

    I am no Wilder fan, but I've been telling everyone for months that this fight would happen.

    And yes, you are right, people often don't check that their info is true before reacting to it. It's a huge problem worldwide in all spheres of life.
