Facts, you just can't up and forget about success. We forget about losers. Why you think nobody talked about Chavez Jr last fight.

Tyson/Jones was just one of those events, that you just had to watch at the moment to really get it. They don't understand that by the time the main event happened, everybody already got their boxing fix. Seeing them old nikkas was just the icing on the cake and since nobody got hurt, everybody was satisfied. The show did too many things right, to just act like it didn't happen.

It made me briefly forget about Jacobs and Rosado tho. That's definitely a positive. :lolbron:
Agree to disagree breh, entertainment level isn't the be all end all to me, I'd probably watch some shytty pro fight where the result matter in term of professional boxing scene than a dust-up between 2 celebrities or an exhibition between old legends.
I'd rather watch a fight between 2 dudes that are both top 5 in their divisions evenif their styles mash up terribly than a war between 2 journeymen.:yeshrug: Simply because I'm more curious about who's better between 2 high level dudes. If the jurneymen war is so good I'll catch it later or something. To me, these celeb and exhibition cards just cannot be taken seriously enough to think of them as boxing like I'm thinking of normal cards as boxing.
It's cool if some of you don't though... to each their own.

Chavez Jr. beating up cab drivers doesn't interest me either though :mjlol:

Thats the thing breh, you keep focusing on the exhibition parts, when we keep talking about the WHOLE event in its entirety. For fukks sake, the free fight was damn near a FOTY candidate. That shyt had everybody hyped and set the night off right. Its not like Dubois/Joyce was some barn burner of a fight. So that opener was like the first great fight, if you were watching boxing the whole day.

That's why we saying that if you didn't watch the whole thing, rap performances an all, you won't get the appeal or why everyone enjoyed it. You basically trying to point out the weakest song on a fire mixtape just to say you ain't feel it.

but yeah agree to disagree. :manny:

your stars are but dust on my shoes
I don't think Spence has to use the "Brook/Porter game plan" to break Danny down though, and it seems almost too foolish for Errol to do that given that he would essentially be playing into Danny's hands in the process.

Frustrate Danny by keeping him on the end of your jab, move so he can't plant his feet, and invest early and often into the body. When Danny tires out late and the scorecards are lopsided, you beat him and overwhelm him on the inside.

Errol has too many tools to just be the come forward brawler that a lot of people want him to be.

I agree but if he does go to the body often that'll put him right in the danger zone. EJ likes the right hook to the body & if he does that guess what punch will be waiting for him from the orthodox position...
