I know alot of folks hate him but I'd take him over Tim Bradley and Mark Kriegel calling ESPN fights in a second, ESPN should have Ward calling fights instead of stuck behind the desk
i think Max is cool doing commentary...I wouldn't mind it..ESPN commentary is just dull with those 2

Boo Boo can’t win even when he’s winning, he needed a win over that name much more than a belt

By the way if anybody knows what that does put it in here
the fight is cancelled, BJS is getting stripped and unless they get the number 2 guy up in there and he's willing to fight on short notice andrade is off the card

It really is a bit strange that his Wilder vs Fury fight will be in Los Angeles.

Before the fight was unofficially announced after the Fury fight many ppl said it's not gonna be in England even though more ppl would show out there cause it's gonna be a Vegas PPV with hotel and casino revenues added for huge money and etc... Now correct me if I'm wrong but there won't be any of that extra casino and hotel money if it's in LA and they can only fill like 20k ppl there as opposed to some bigger UK stadium with 40-50k+ seats.

So how they get more by fighting in the US? Maybe because the PPV's are usually more expensive there? But then you would have to calculate in that if they don't ridiculously overrate Wilder's drawing power this won't be more than like 60-70 dollars and in the UK probably more ppl would buy the PPV. I mean if Whyte vs Parker did almost 500k there a Wilder vs Fury could do a million or more. Not sure how well it will do in the US, it might be a Ward vs Kovalev like flop what I don't really think but I don't think it will be anything close to 1million either.

Wilder does a little better than 1 million on regular Showtime, this gonna be his first PPV and Fury isn't a huge name like that in the US... Sure they gonna sell the shyt out of the fight and until then they gonna highlight 1000X that Fury beat Klitschko and hasn't lost in the ring so far but stilll it's hard for me to see it doing anything close to 1M. They can be happy with 300-400k imo... Canelo did 350k on his first "A side" PPV but he had a huge built in Mexican fanbase by then and he was coming off one of the more lucrative PPVs of the recent years against Mayweather. In short he was already a bigger deal than Wilder is now and still only did 350k... with the PPV price being only 50 bucks.

I don't think it's just because they didn't book in time cause sources said Mandalay Bay in Vegas was in the running but they chose the Staples at the end of the day.

This the reason why I think this will be a stacked card

Espn needs to break the bank for Kellerman and give him a weekly boxing show. Also they should be putting him on all the big fights. Kellerman plus one of these great YouTubers that know history and are good with graphics could be gold. Kellermans knowledge of history is insane. He used to give touches on his radio shows.
