Loma never seen nathan like Rigo tho also and he was getting touched a bit in his last scrap. I think it's 50/50. Im rolling with Rigo, but more than ANYTHING, happy that these elite fights are being made. Now if we can get Luis Ortiz in a big HW scrap and Lara vs Boo Boo too
Even better AJ vs wilder :whew:

Hey man, I pay the cost to be the boss. :smugdraper:


Every year for the past 7 years or so Ive made it a point to attend 2 fights minimum per year. Some guys buy Jordans. Some buy prostitutes. Some guys pop bottles at the club. Others weed and coke. A lot of guys spending $ on car upgrades and clothes. I save my money for boxing fights and travelling. NOTHING better than being at the fights live, especially when you have great seats. :banderas:


Best seats I EVER had was Kovalev-Pascal 1 in Montreal. Floor seats, 7 rows away from ring. I was amongst the debutants and executives. They thought I was a boxer lol. Wilder was 3 rows ahead of me. Sooo skinny. Dapped him up twice and both times I could have crushed his hand. So many stories from that night. It was that night also that Hopkins showed me how to beat the Mayweather defense, his real views on Floyd, and how to properly land the liver shot and clinch in one motion.


Please share

I've never met Hopkins before but I knew his people.

I put together his intro music for on of his fights.

Lomachenko vs. Rigondeaux

On Friday, Top Rank Boxing announced a mammoth title bout between WBO super featherweight champion Vasyl Lomachenko and WBA super bantamweight titleholder Guillermo Rigondeaux. Best yet, the fight will be broadcast on ESPN on December 9, live from Madison Square Garden.

If you're a casual fan, those two names may not mean much to you, but if your affinity for the sport goes beyond the heavyweight division and names like Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao, and Canelo Alvarez, then you know how big of a fight this is within boxing circles.



This year has delivered multiple strong, championship matchups featuring big-name fighters against other top-notch competition–and the Canelo-Golovkin fight hasn't even happened yet.

When was the last time you could legitimately say, there have been too many good-to-great matchups in boxing to remember in a calendar year? I've been a fan of the sport since 1981 and I can't recall a year as stacked as 2017.

Even the Floyd Mayweather vs. Conor McGregor spectacle fit nicely in-between the more serious bouts of the year. As you can see from the reaction of several in the boxing community, this fight is an example of the best fighting the best.

The two men are a combined 26-1 with 18 KOs as professionals, but their amateur records are astounding. Lomachenko was 396-1 before turning pro, with two Olympic gold medals, and Rigondeaux was reportedly 463-12 in the amateur ranks with a pair of Olympic medals to his credit as well. The two men have already won a combined five world titles.

This fight will be contested at super featherweight, which means Rigondeaux will have to move up two weight classes to challenge Lomachenko. That quickly shows you which fighter is the A-side in the negotiations, and the man likely to take home the largest payday.

In any case, this battle of smaller weight superstars is a perfect way to end a high-profile and successful year for our sport.
