:yeshrug: don't know what you are getting at.
Only way you can judge a fighter is by the comp he has faced.
Given what we both said, only fighter I stomach on my tx with a x on their face is hurd

Hurd is a rugged bum fighter I expected him to get his ass beat once the Porters and real swift moved up

Mikey is a complete con artist, he never cared about the sport off eye, reporters could talk boxing and hes talking street fighter with no concern, he only has been interested in cashing out

AJ the only interest I have seeing him going forth is knowing everyone will be trying to spark his bum ass out:mjlol:

DAZN doesn't even know how to schedule things to maximize monthly recurring charges. How you gonna let people get fights from your two biggest draws for one months subscription? :picard:

That's potential to double your money flushed down the drain :why:

Did they not just see HBO schedule GoT so you had to have their services for three months just to catch 6 eps?

What you young wet behind the ears, breath smelling like Similac anti casuals think of Jarron Ennis’ potential?

They put both fights on the same card I might have to consider flying out for this

The Fight Corner: Los Angeles is positioned to land a significant fight card

Los Angeles is positioned to land another significant fight card if the founders of the World Boxing Super Series embrace the wishes of their television partner, the streaming service DAZN.

Joe Markowski, DAZN’s executive vice president for North America, said at a Saturday meeting with reporters in New York that he’d like both of the two pending World Boxing Super Series’ tournament finales to be staged as part of a doubleheader in the U.S.

The junior-welterweight final is between New Orleans’ Regis Prograis (24-0, 20 knockouts) and Scotland’s Josh Taylor (15-0, 12 KOs) and the bantamweight finale pits unbeaten pound-for-pound talent Naoya Inoue (18-0, 16 KOs) versus veteran four-division champion Nonito Donaire (40-5, 26 KOs).


The bouts are expected to be staged by October.

As DAZN seeks more subscribers, Markowski said, “The merger of the two finals makes sense for us. It’s a bigger event, there’ll be stronger marketing. Naturally, the desire is to have it in the United States, and we’ll see what happens. We’re a key stakeholder and we’ve been vocal with them.”

Prograis’ promoter Lou DiBellaadded, “Josh Taylor’s fans will travel. I want to see it where it makes the most noise.”

Prograis says he saw “a lot of holes” in Taylor’s defense during the Scot’s home semifinal victory, and with an eye toward fully unifying the division and pursuing a welterweight dream match against former fully unified 140-pound Terence Crawford, he is training at Santa Monica’s Churchill Boxing Club.

He likes the idea of making the fight site “neutral,” and DiBella said, “as a big fan of the World Boxing Super Series … I think when you look at the quality of the matchups, it’s good stuff, but it’s not resonating enough … to make it resonate, you need to go someplace to get the worldwide press attention it deserves.

“If you put them together, it’s a gigantic show. Try to create something that transcends an ordinary fight card, at an arena full of people, with so much press attention.”

Inoue has been especially destructive in his recent work to elevate in the pound-for-pound rankings, and Prograis, with his World Boxing Assn. belt, envisions himself climbing the ranks while charming with his deep knowledge of the sport’s history and his interesting bravery outside the ring.

“I like swimming with sharks, chasing [baby] alligators, skydiving, riding dirt bikes 100 miles an hour with my shirt off – all of it,” Prograis said. “I guess it’s just the adrenaline that I like. I’ll be daring, but I’m smart. I won’t wrestle or swim with something that can truly kill me.”

I know this is old news but shyt is still :huhldup:

Well known heavyweight Clifford Etienne was arrested Wednesday in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on charges of armed robbery, kidnapping and the attempted murder of a police officer. Etienne allegedly robbed a local business, car-jacked a vehicle containing a woman and her children, then pulled a gun on police officers. He is being held in East Baton Rouge Parish Prison with a $70,000 bond.

On June 22, 2006, following his trial in Baton Rouge, Etienne was found guilty and sentenced to 160 years in prison without parole for an allegedly cocaine-fueled crime spree that included robbing a check cashing business, carjacking and attempting to shoot a police officer.[3] In April 2013 his sentence was reduced from 160 years to 105 years due to a technicality.[4] Etienne is now a painter, painting artwork from prison

Dude was a problem for a min...until he ran into fres oquendo who dropped him like 7 times. Dude had some underrated slugfests with Lamon Brewster (and took his zero) and Frans Botha.

He laid down for Tyson though...me and my roommates in my dorm were like horse shyt lol. But he got paid like 800 or 900 k.
