    Hey, one of HBO´s biggest cards(in terms of ratings) in 2014 was Rosado vs Lemieux.
    It was a good matchup and a strong card:
    Dulorme - Lundy
    De La Rosa - Centeno Jr.
    Rosado - Lemieux

    On Showtime? My god they must be desperate.

    But I have to say. I love this fight! Wallin gave Fury hell and he is exactly on the level of a fat, washed up 40 year old Browne.

    Browne and Briedis destroyed Kadirovs boxing show. Loved his face when briedis kod charr and browne chagaev.

    Was fan of chagaev but his career was over anyway.

    When you get KO'd by Dave Allen you have no business fighting on Showtime. Wallin by KO within 3 rounds. Its a weird fight really Browne is just taking the biggest paydays offered and that's fine. He pulled out of a domestic showdown with Aussie champ McKean which would have been a 50/50 semi interesting fight in Australia.

    Lol at the Yankee Doodle Dandies.

    Fighters who aren't good enough to be on Australian TV get to headline on Showtime.

    I'm hearing rumours HBO might be getting back into the boxing business.

    Their new headline act? Anthony The Man Mundine!

    Browne is very poor. Allen vs Wallin would be a better and close fight.

    This won't last long. Wallin is very underrated. Hope he can get some bigger fights this year.

    Don't insult Skelton. Prime for prime he's way better than Browne. And id still give an older Skelton a good shot at brawling and mauling even a peak Browne.

    Browne v a Prime Bob Mirovic would have been 50/50

    Wallin said he didn't want to fall back too many levels after the Fury fight.
    What?

    You DO NOT want to mess with a feral pig without a rifle. There are many of them around my lake house; the locals trap them, shoot them and eat them. But while they are caged they go completely nuts...slamming into steel fences, trying to jump up 8' high walls, etc.

    Browne has also been ducking Leapai and Tupou too. He's a mid level journeyman at best at this point and he's trying to bide his time for one last cashout. Like I said in an earlier post I expect him to withdraw from this one and if he doesn't it's because he's getting a payday that he's satisfied with.

    It’s an OK fight but not main event worthy.

    Yep I agree Browne loves pulling out of fights. I used to be a fan but can't stand him anymore he contradicts himself and his Instagram is so cringey always posting dumb stuff.
