Essential The Official Boxing Random Thoughts Thread...All boxing heads ENTER.

[TheNig]

honestly i cant believe nguyen and hernandez are doing this...i heard why nguyen is doing it but man you leave boxing after causing an upset of a prospect to do this...nico hernandez is just all around

ishe smith - well you gotta make money i guess

I just kinda took an interest in it about two weeks ago. shyt is brutal. I watched a guy last night get absolutely pummeled to bits. He took vicious head shots and the opponent followed up by landing some nasty body shots.

It was to the point where one of the announcers said something like "Its very unusual to see body shots land that cleanly in Bare Knuckle Boxing".

From what I gather (since everything is rumors)

Spence has signed or pretty much good to go, but Bud wants more/holding out lol.

To me if this is true it shows who the bullshytter was (and Bud's track record of business is horrible). Everyone wanna ignore business (acting like sides of the street was some made up shyt), but once the blocker gone they find another issue. Spence told nikkas exactly what he was going to do and has did it (collect belts, to make the fight bigger and not be a dummy and rush into the fight when the stakes could be higher).

The positive sign was Bud recently doing that Showtime segment/clip. SO imo they maybe feel October is too close to Mid Sept, nd for a fight like this they gonna have to tax people to recoup the bread, so thats why I feel they leaning to November now so the month of build up is uninterrupted (because they'd have to do promo against GGG/Nelo for a period of time if they did the Oct date).

No one has signed and from what Tim Bradley was saying the biggest hold up is that they can't really agree on the rematch clause. They both want a rematch clause but they both have some stipulations to it.

Personally I'm thinking late November. If no announcement is made by the middle of August, I think we're looking at next February.

Fine by me.

Keith Thurman n the wbc finna fukk it up

N I can almost guarantee bud knows it

Keith will force his mandatory since he is number one contender now

Bud gone come out playin like Spence never wanted the fight

N if some how Thurman beats s0pence

Bud gonna be like he was never ready

Some strange shyt bout to happen soon

I'm in the same boat fellas

I'm just trynna tie down my airfare and request that days off from my boss asap! And everyday I'm checking for updates and like ya, everyday I'm disappointed.

For whatever it's worth, here's the rumors I've heard thus far recently:

1. The fight will take place Nov. 19th in Vegas

2. That fight will be announced this Saturday during the Garcia-Benavidez telecast

3. Spence-Thurman will happen in the winter if the megafight can't get made.

4. Spence-Crawford may also take place next year for the same reasons Charlo-Tsyzu is happening next year- no more $$$ left in the SHO/PBC budget to make it happen this year.

 

[Mr. Leonidas]

He could have made this point without mentioning Ryan who is the one name that contradicts that point.

His entire point was that Garcia at age 23 already had a better resume than Tank at age 27, which is true.

fukk that Bud ass need to fight Boots if Spence gotta fight lmfao

Spence literally doing all the heavy lifting

Luke Campbell N Fortuna is better than

LSC??

Pedraza??

Pitbull Cruz slumps Ryan let alone the greats Campbell N Fortuna

The top two WWs are not going near that kid. Not because he's that talented, even though he is, but because it's high risk/low reward at this point. Those two beating him will do nothing for him. But if he were to best them, he's king of the fukkin world.

The person that NEEDS the Ennis fight more than anyone is Thurman.

Boots is Spence's mandatory, not Buds. That would be Vergil Ortiz. My gut tells me if the fight doesnt happen this year, Bud wont be able to fight anyone else at PBC without signing a contract with them first.

Can you explain the reasoning here?

Either Margarito used illegal wraps his entire career or he didn't? It's not possible that he had clean wraps against Williams, and decided to use them after having lost his title?
