DAZN must be in desperation mode

honestly...this wouldn't be the most left thing that they air on there...they got actual cricket on that shyt lol

I was watching Callum Smith highlights last night. Why do so few fighters utilize combination punching nowadays? They just try to throw the perfect shot or perfect counter and never follow it up with anything. Their pacing is also much slower. I'd love for combination punching to make a come back. I think Terrence Crawford is the best combination puncher in the game, followed very closely by Canelo Alvarez. With Crawford you just never know where the next punch is going.

by product of the minimalist style that kinda found its way into boxing

DAZN holding up any plans for a Canelo fight in September, they want him to take a pay cut

i wonder what discount?..like less than 10 million?

Didn't I mention this shyt the other day.

That its gonna come down to Canelo taking less in order to secure the Smith fight. The guy making 5-6 mil ain't trying to hear shyt about reducing his purse when the guy he's facing stands to make like 30 fukking mil.

My favorite Naz quote Mayweather Mosley 24/7

“Shane goin punch Floyd in the mouth N Floyd goin sprout a tail, grow wings, draw fangs N claws N turn into a dragon in the ring N start spitting fireballs”


Exactly what happened in that fight

Caleb Plant reminds me a little bit of Dmitry Pirog the Russian boxer in terms of defense.

Interesting Comparison, they both box with a great rhythm still sad we never got to see more of Pirog

"What have you seen from Fury? A couple of feints? Moving around? What have you seen that makes him seem so intimidating? Speed? If the sport is lacking so much talent then all you need is feints and movement to be classed as a great of this generation..... With hard work, motivation and studying you can overcome that," Joshua told Sky Sports.

I definitely agree with Joshua on this one. People let feints and movement disguise the fact that a fighter is getting completely outworked and outlanded, I don't see how you score a fight in favor of a fighter like that even if it looks nice and he makes some good moves on defense.
