    I'm disappointed that the fight couldn't be sooner. At age 39, Pulev is not an especially dangerous opponent.

    Joshua should be fighting more often, 3 times a year. Prime does not last forever.

    The glory days of Tuesday night fights on USA are now a bit more distant. I will miss the man, and when I think back to Al Alpert and Sean O'grady calling fights for beloved has-beens, never-weres, and up-and-comers, I will remember him.

    Apparently Manuel Charr vs Trevor Bryan is in the works for 11th of april in Dubai. And then Charr wants Whyte in UK should he be succesful, which he shouldn't, if Bryan shows up.

    Till this fight isn't over I can't believe that it is on! So many pull outs in the last years by Charr..

    It's more or less a done deal for June 20th in Northern London.

    Charr doesn't want the responsibility of fatherhood. So he always makes sure to pull out.

    Wlad used to fight 2-3 times a year. Some boxers are active champions. Props to them.
