I watched Wlad-Sultan at 4am as well( in the UK) plus I was watching on some dodgy stream and watched the whole fightatsch.
I was almost drunk on water when Verno Phillips got the decision against him.MAYORGA LIVES!!!:fire :fire
I was with a couple of guys that like boxing aswell and we couldn't believe it.MSG was stinked out by the 2 buffons:-( Jab,jab,jab,right hand.Wlad ****ing threw 5 right hands all night.I drank 8 beers and didn't get drunk watching thatatsch
Until fighters stop avoiding each other, Boxing will continue to suffer. I think it should be mandatory for the top boys to square off with each other. Unfortunately, the promoters always steer their guys away and hand pick easier opponents. That's also why several boxers have padded records full of easy victories against nobodies. This is why the public don't respect boxing any more. Much as I hate to say it, in MMA the fighters HAVE to meet because there's not as many alternative opponents to choose from. Take the HW division. The Klitch brothers won't meet so now we have two "world champions". There should only be one world champ in each division and each champ should make 2-3 defences a year.
Your friends aren't real boxing fans then are they? If boxing isn't alive why are all these American PPV fights on TV? If there was no demand they wouldn't bother.
Awesome... Im stuck here on ****ing stream tonight. I would normally order but the eco is so **** cant spend too much money.
ya but it will start reflecting in boxers purses... just like why mosley margarito isnt pushing through, people arent realising that they cant get as much as they used to unless you are a genuine superstar in the sport... half the reason i want boxing to be big again is so these warriors who are giving themselves up for this sport get the credit, recognition, and money they deserve.
I live less than 10 mins away from a pool hall/ sportsbar that usually shows all the bigs fights for free. I watched Trinidad/Jones, Pac/JMM, Cotto/Gomez, Cotto/Margo, Pac/Diaz, and will be there tonight. :cheers
