    The saddest moment in boxing for me:

    Andre Ward punching Sergey Kovalev in the stones several times, and the referee Weeks waving his hands calling it a TKO.

    Ya'll are aware he's just loosening up his shoulders right and doing some drills on finding angles right?

    LOL That's the saddest thing you can come up with? You Kovalovers never let me down. Ward whooped that Kovalev good and finished him off. You should have been devastated at what Alvarez did to your hero! I know the truth. Ward won that fight! You Kovalovers can't face the reality that Ward was just plain better. So in your delusional funk, you conceive a conspirecy that allows you to vent your anger to Ward instead of dealing with the sorrow of watching your hero getting his ass beat down.

    That was a masterclass from Calzaghe. Lacy was hyped majorly, regarded as a mini Tyson. He was exposed and never the same after that fight.

    FlIVd v Manny. FlIVd waited till manny was in steep decline before finally making the fight. FlIVd gets no credit for beating post ko6 Manny.

    90% of YT boxing insight videos I've seen from armchair pundits with a webcam. Suckback being the worst of them all.

    I’ll throw in the HBO episode of Legendary Nights, Chávez vs Taylor; the build up of JCC and Meldrick Taylor, highlights of the fight itself culminating with Richard Steele stopping Taylor from gaining boxing immortality and then the slurring interviews with Taylor later in his career.
    The other tragedy that I’m surprised nobody else has brought yet is the atrocity involving Louis Resto and Panama Lewis or whoever in the f*** he was...
