HBO hype derailed again.
SMH
Its pathetic how HBO ignores Lara, Hurd, Charlo, and other Jr. MWs to boost up Oscar's shyt stable.
Munguia would get bodied by the elite at 154 the talk of him jumping in line to fight at 160 is ridiculous.

Yup. That is precisely the problem with boxing right now. These networks are tied to certain fighters with deals.

The fact that Charlo, Hurd and others weren’t mentioned is insane. Just because they are Showtime guys, you can’t act like they don’t exist.

Boxing needs more unity.

The fukked up part is HBO is the one that made the decision to blackball Haymon fighters. Its entirely self imposed and why their boxing is shyt now. They only have K2 which is invested in GGG, Matchroom USA, and Oscar who only has Canelo. That is it. Chocolitito was derailed by King Sor and Ward took Kovalev out on his way to retirement.

You would think the would value viewership and ratings over racism, but they don't, they are committed to blackballing Haymon fighters and black fighters in general.

I agree. I think they can make Monster big, yet he hasn't been on their show since last late summer/fall. Outside of Jacobs, do they have any other notable black fighters?

Fighters

They still got Cotto listed lol.

And showtime never mentions HBO fighters, it's annoying and gives fighters an out when they get to pretend certain ppl don't exist in the post fight interview


Fight was only ok to me. I want to see Munguia in there with someone who has pop to earn his respect

Showtime and ESPN both mention HBO fighters, the fact is though that Oscar and HBO don't work with anyone else. Canelo been called out publicly by Charlos. Jermall called out GGG, Andrade called out Canelo, GGG, and Charlos. Bob and PBC don't ignore the actual champs in divisions.

Munguia is gonna get pieced up against elites at 154 if he doesn't improve his defence.

Still thinks Cotto will come back one more fight with Roach vs Pacquaio


Cotto sounded sure he was done though in his interview with fighthype recently; done on Ali with a bad arm looking like bambi:hhh:

I know Lara has to be ready to go against Munguia
He doesnt win:mjgrin:........................; nikka cant even beat Angulo we saw these same styles vs Lara twice already

Munguia a good young fighter, but using my boxing mind and eye once he gets with a real trainer to simply tell him to forget the jab, then we'll see how good he realy is.....He slippery enough and responsible defensively otherwise but his jab is so lazy fighers could get in 2-3 clean shots in on him, he cant las that way.....A age and training thing though.....Fukk the jab

Lara vs Smith a good lil fight though
