like i said i wasnt all too impressed with that fight in real time..largely because i was anticipating rios vs alvarado 2 in the main event

crawford beat him but he didnt stop him..i would have liked to see that..esp since mike alvarado was able to do it


Huh, Crawford was fighting him on 2 weeks notice, and was his first 10 round fight

I wonder if all these fighters on Matchroom cards are getting caught because they ARE getting tested.

Or is there something else at play.
That's exactly what it is, They are doing random tests all through camp but if you don't pay for proper testing they just get tested week of fight and after the fight.

Dave Allen who just fought Clarke on Sky said he didn't get tested at all for the fight. The other promoters don't want to spend the money it seems

I don't think Spence-Crawford 2 is happening......at least not right now. Al is going to tell Spence to chill because Showtime nor PBC really wants that fight to happen given the L they're going to take on it financially. I expect them to wait to see what happens with Canelo-Charlo and then move from there.......maybe Crawford gets the winner of those two, Spence wins a tune up fight at 154 and then they double back.

So fill me in. If a Boxer activated a rematch clause, their Promotional company can still stop the fight from happening?

got to find a way to live probox card one day...love these fights

You can tell the big executives that own Probox TV is planning to make this a big network. They already brought on Tim Bradley, Shawn Porter, Teddy Atlas, etc

I'm not mad at it, I would love to have a TV/Youtube channel that is successful that is only about Boxing
