I think when Triller does an event with a crowd they are going to do NUMBERS, so paying folks these big bags is going to disrupt things. With Al having a Music Concert background I'm shocked he hasn't done this yet.

im not a fan of it unless its a rapper or somebody leading a fighter into the ring...those cards in the past like cotto vs canelo where they would have some reggaeton artist performing use to blow my drinking buzz

plus it has to be the right type of music..like triller tomorrow has shyt like justin bieber and saweetie performing...i might be buzzed by then and i KNOW i dont want to hear that shyt

USS did a best i faced article

He graciously took time to speak to The Ring about the best he fought in 10 key categories.

BEST JAB

Guillermo Jones: His height and experience, he knew how to use it. It was tricky for me to get around that. We found ways to get in and work. He had very good range and speed on it.

BEST DEFENSE

Antonio Tarver: Tarver was really slick; it was hard for me to just go in and land a shot. I had to work and set him up because he’s such and experienced guy. There were a few shots I landed but the way he fought was really calculated, he’s setting you up and make you not want to go for too many shots. My thing was to overwhelm him punches and land at least one out of four.

FASTEST HANDS

Yoan Pablo Hernandez: His handspeed was pretty good. It was his combinations; he threw them very fast. You didn’t know what combination he was going to throw.

BEST FOOTWORK

Andrew Tabiti: After I landed a good right hand on him in the first round, he didn’t want to engage, he knew how to stay away. He knew how to slip and grab. His whole thing was to be elusive and not to engage.

SMARTEST

Tarver: Yoan Pablo Hernandez was very smart. That Cuban school of boxing. He was smart, setting me up, he shoots when I shot. Him and Tarver were smart, they were both southpaws. I put them both on the same level. Tarver with his experience and the way he fights. They set you up with shots. People fail to realize, they think Tarver’s old, you should wipe him out, no, Tarver’s a legend, you never just go in there and wipe him out, I don’t care who you are. I’d say Tarver.

STRONGEST

Tyson Fury: Most definitely Fury. Physically strong, just because of size.

BEST CHIN

Tarver: I hit Tarver with some good shots, they didn’t wobble him.

BEST PUNCHER

Amir Mansour: My goodness, that guy had power. It was just crazy. He bet the house on every punch. Every punch he threw it was a knockout punch, so if anyone lands, you’re going to feel it. He knocked me down twice in that fight, the second knockdown really hurt me.

BEST BOXING SKILLS

Tarver: Hernandez or Tarver because of their skillset. Hernandez being a Cuban southpaw from that education, it’s unpredictable combinations, you don’t know what they’re going to do. Their movement is different. Tarver is slick, he’s methodical, he’ll let you make mistakes and capitalize on that mistake. He caught me with a couple of big shots in our fights and I was like damn, I didn’t see that set up. I’d say Hernandez.

BEST OVERALL

Jones: He switched southpaw, he could knock you out or outbox you. His height, range and experience. He made you think. In our fight Fury wasn’t all that, that’s why I didn’t pick him. Afterwards, yes, Fury is the full package, he has the jab, movement, power, defense. If you look at what Fury did after, it solidified who I was. His trainer, Peter Fury, wanted me in camp, which is very smart in order to get over that big punch, my speed and movement. His team saw in victory where they had made mistakes and they were conscious enough to fix it and that’s what makes Fury great, they’re evolving to be better all the time. He’s always learning, to be that tall and athletic is very dangerous for a man. He moves around like a middleweight.

I understand why there’s criticism, but I like this fight. Barrios got that gift against the Euro and I rather have seen him face Prograis and Tank has many matchups to choose from through 130-135... but it’s a dope fight on paper, Barrios is no scrub. Got a feeling maybe it’s like Tank/LSC 2.0 but no one really thought that was gonna be as good as it was ... so imma keep an Open Mind and hope we get a great fight and with how Tank puts on a show, I expect a Dope Event as usual
