    It's the biggest and most lucrative fight in boxing.

    I kind of want Turki to fail. Feels like evil is controlling the sport now.

    I missed that, that's obviously a serious disadvantage. But it doesn't make Ruiz the winner.

    He still lost.

    Shawn Porter knows whatsup, Ruiz is fat. But cmon Porter, we don't need some Ruiz vs Miller trilogy.

    People with that kind of money don't make threats. The simply communicate more effectively.

    Andy Ruiz is a fat lazy underachiever with fast hands, high boxing IQ, and strong chin. Interesting mix.

    So disrespectful to Madrimov to try and entice Clenelo to accept the Crawford fight live on TV when we are a matter of hour away at most from his fight with Crawford

    I think Madrimov is the most dangerous opponent Crawford will have fought but ultimately he's just too green to take this fight now and I don't even think he will even have a size advantage (weight) and may well be at a size disadvantage which is crazy considering it's Crawford's 4th weight class. But I do think he does possesses the talent and power to beat Crawford if he can land with his bombs but it's just a massive ask at this stage of his career

    The most lucrative fight in boxing is the one that turki wants to see the most

    What is the deal with this female commentator? Is she self-absorbed or what?

    I did not see any blood but it was obvious there was a major bone pushing his skin out.

    I think Valenzuela is going to pull the upset, I have a sneaking suspicion he might hit harder than Tank, he definitely hits harder than Cruz, Cruz labored to a sloppy win over old ass Francisco Vargas, while Valenzuela sparked him out in 1. Pitbull got dropped by Cabrera, someone else he couldn't hurt, that Zepeda polished off in 2. So he can be hurt. He might walk into something big tonight and not recover.
