I was at the tua v president fight, Ike was a respectful sportsman afterwards, nice words exchaned and photographs plus ike said both will be champ and a rematch will happen in the future.

Dan Rafael chat wrap 8/22:

- Thoughts on GGG vs Rubio: Rubio can land good punches, but he is slow and stationary. Tailor made for an impressive GGG KO.
- Is GGG the mandatory for Cotto if he beats Rubio? GGG already has a belt and cannot be a mandatory for another belt.
- 50 Cent is going at Floyd about not being able to read.
- Jay Z is a good alternative in the promotion game. He and Haymon do not get along.
- Kirkland is the most likely opponent for Canelo's next fight.
- SMS promotions vs. RocNation: SMS is basically a cell phone and an assistant. Roc Nation is an actual business and hiring qualified people.
- Hopkins-Kovalev to take place 11/8 at Boardwalk Hall.
- Rios-Ruslan in November is possible.
- Taylor-Soliman is a toss up fight.
- Haymon has a deal with NBC to start airing live fights in 2015. Main Events deal will be done at the end of the year.
- Brook-Lopez is a very realistic fight. Somebody with a decent name and poses no threat.
- He believes Mayweather's surprise for 2015 was absolutely nothing. Designed to get people talking, nothing else.
- Can Haymon have a contract with a TV company, doesn't that make him a promoter? He obviously has a front company to do it for him.
- Beltran has signed his side of the contract. TR is still working on Crawford's side of the deal.
- Figueroa will remain at 135 for a while longer.
- Predicting Trout to win tonight. He can still be a top 5 JMW. He lost to two top fighters and one was vs. Lara who he was mentally not prepared for (his grandmother died at his wedding).
- Loma likely ends up on the Pacquiao undercard Nov 22. Opponent TBA.
- Thurman vs Brook, he picks Thurman to win.
- He thinks Bayless is the best Nevada referee. Weeks is 2nd.
- He picks Pavlik to beat Abraham in the discussed but never made fight.
- His pointed out Julie Lederman and Michael Pernick as two of the best judges.
- Mike Tyson actually did punch holes in the locker room prior to the Spinks fight.
- Verdejo back on Oct 4th on Unimas.
- Lampley was not happy about HBO's decision to not have them at the Groves-Froch fight.
- RocNation overpaid for Quillin-Korobov, but they wanted to make a statement.
- JMM is looking at the possibility of a Fall fight.

It was either that or barclays center

Damn, I was hoping B-Hop/Kovalev would be at the Barclays

.

i wonder whats the backstory to haymon and jay? i know haymon used to be in the music biz and i believe promoted a couple of beyonce concerts a few years ago.

i know damn well nbc isn't kicking main events to the curb for haymon after some of the fights they've put on. i don't think main events has put on one bad card on nbc sports. that tureano-stevens, cunnigham-mansour card back in march was one of my fav cards of the year so far.

With Ann training him ?????

 

[L68]

- Rios-Ruslan in November is possible.

This is the only place I talk boxing.

As far as Floyd stans they've cluttered this section with too many trash threads and struggle knowledge. They must pay

I am their reckoning. Here to end the borrowed time they have all been living on.

I think it depends on how he loses

This tonight?

 

[krackdagawd]

I think it depends on how he loses

this shyt about his reading has kind of made me feel bad for dude I might not even troll if he loses.

All those millions and he is still another nikka the education system has failed, at least he has the finances to fix the problem unlike a lot of others in a similar situation.
