We went from Bud/Spence, Tank, Garcia in potentially Nov and Dec to now potentially Jan and Feb.

We better get a nice surprise to end the year for Nov or December for the schedule (something on the Charlo/Andrade level).

Fury stays hustling these networks. He doesn't really get criticism or called out for his matchmaking, but if he isn't facing an elite guy (wlad, wilder), he's facing a handpicked journeyman.

It's really brilliant. If he doesn't have a big fight lined up, they'll grab a guy like Schwarz, Wallin, etc.

I'm sure someone will say Dillian is solid, which is fair. I never viewed him that way though. I always viewed him as a well promoted journeyman

I always say the super 6 was one of the best things that ever happened to boxing. It often gets overlooked, because fans were too impatient, They said it took too long to declare a winner. I’m like so what? Ward won and then what happened? Nothing boxing goes back to the usual handpick bull shyt.

That logic never made sense to me. Getting solid matchmaking was always more important then the winner IMO.

It’s like y’all really prefer the usual marinating shyt over a round robin tournament?

If I put together a super six of Haney, Teo, Ryan, Tank, Shakur, & Loma, who gives a fukk how long it takes to declare a winner? Just enjoy the fights back to back & even if there’s a scenario where a guy drops out, and a backup has to come in, it’s fine. It’s still better then the shyt we are getting now.
