No Boots, No Canelo, No Timmy Tzysu?

Chris Eubank Jr is the best they can come up with. What’s this gonna do for Crawford’s career?

It's at 160lb, so im excited to see bud going up in weight. He's still trying to make that Saul fight happen. Both of them now taking weak ass tune ups makes it even more possible we get that fight at end of the year. That would make it all worth it.

Now on another note, it's going to fukk around and be a whole year since Boots last fight. Dude has zero earned accolades and keeps obsessing about Bud, really shows how Bud got these goofies lost in their emotions.

If he sticks around 154/160 then it’s a good first fight there.
Imo 168 would be tpp much for him but he clears 154 and looking at the state of that division, 160 too.
Janibek with Denzel Bentley problems won’t beat him, if anything competition will be tougher at 154 but he beats Tszyu, Mell and Madrimov as long as he can bring the form he was in against Spence or close to that.

imagine if matchroom or the saudis win this bid :heh:
If the Saudis win...not good. They are going to have all boxers thinking it's normal to fly first class or on a private jet making 6-7 figures.

Once that oil money diverts to more family themed entertainment boxers all over are in for a rude awakening.

Most boxers not selling out arenas let alone their local big venue.

If Mungia wins he beats an older version of himself. If Canelo wins he beats a younger version of himself.

Fight no moving the needle when there have BEEN other fighters waiting. Plus, Benavidez the only one to fight and stop Boo Boo.

Tired of these Mexican themed cards when they omit more deserving fighters

Nah, Munguia isn’t even close to Canelo in level, young or old

True story, back in my DJ days, my guy Malik had me put together Bernard's intro music for this fight.

I blended Biggie's "Where Brooklyn At" in DMX's "X Gon Give It You Ya" into 2 chainz "I'm Different" but Benard got to the ring before the 2 Chainz record came on.

I went to this fight, it was at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

As much as I hate on NYC, Barclays is a decent venue.

If Jake Paul Ko's Tyson lmfaoooo

And it's very possible. Tyson is in his mid-50s and hasn't had a professional fight since 2005

Jake Paul might be a Youtube Boxer, but he's been in the gym training for a decade. Anything can happen. Kind of worried for Tyson
