    If Andy wants to stay relevant, this is not the way.

    Ex Kick Boxer who's 14-0, 13 KO's as a Boxer, against people, most of whom I've never even heard of, and coming off a 3 year layoff. Oh well. I guess Ruiz needs to get some activity in somehow. It's been a year for him. This should be a freebie on the television.

    Didn't Spong pop for PEDs when Usyk was supposed to fight him? Or am I misremembering this

    Spong hits very hard, but I don't give him much of a chance. I believe he only got into boxing because he shattered his leg in kickboxing

    Tyrone Spong is decent as a boxer, dont think its going to be that easy of a fight for Andy.

    It will be held in Mexco City's Azteca Stadium filled with 100,000 taxi drivers.
    Biggest bout since Cortes kicked Montezuma's ass.

    BTW...altitude in Mexici City DF is 7,400'. Those big boys will be huffing and puffing within 2 rounds. They had better take the time to get acclimated to that altitude.

    No, your recollection is spot on. The fight was scheduled and less than a week out when he got popped for PED's, which is the reason why we ended up with the abomination that was Usyk vs. Witherspoon.
