    Interesting comment. In what way is it like Lewis/Akinwande?

    Same here.

    Sometimes I feel sad there has to be a loser tonight but then I think boxing will be the real winner.

    Love this fight. Can't believe they're doing it on a Tuesday/Wednesday without any shot of US and a very fringe shot at Western European audience.

    I'm gonna try to make it.

    That is a weird mistake to see in a country with individually packaged socks and bananas. Glad they got past it and hope that Inoue and Donaire are using the gloves that feel best.

    Regarding a trilogy, we can only hope. It's the kind of fight where I want the trilogy regardless of who wins and I think enough feel the same that we may just see it.

    I'm seeing 5:40 New York time for the ESPN broadcast to start. I think they may just be doing one or two fights?

    I just wanted to seem like I've watched a lot of fights and I didn't think anyone would call me out on it.

    LOL, you have obviously watched a lot of fights but your non-secret is safe with me.

    I typed in "other fights that have also happened" and Lewis/Akinwande was literally the first fight. But anyway, I have also seen some of the fights Tyson had from ESPN specials, it's true. But there's only so many of those. Those were good because Tyson was super short but almost the same weights a lot of the time.
