Smh...they always try and alienate kids from "bad" areas and then wonder why they grow up angry or with no goals:snoop:

Kid from Newark maybe the next Jordan Burroughs if they just got the chance:wow:


shyt's infuriating breh because Newark does have summer camps for basketball baseball soccer etc but guess what's the fee? 300-400 and parents have to provide gear. They are eliminating 80% of the town from the jump and let's say parents do scrounge up enough cash to send their kids how do they get there? Parent(s) gotta work so do they take public transportation? In a city where kids are getting blasted at mother's day festivals? :francis:

You know how much I pay for my town's soccer camp and wrestling camp for my son? 20 and 30 and the town provided gear. Guess what the racial make up of my town is? shyt's infuriating breh.

Multiple sources have advised BoxingScene.com that a clash between three-division champion Roman Chocolatito Gonzalez (43-0, 37KOs) and former two-division champion Giovani Segura (32-4-1, 28KOs) is in the works for August or September. Our sources in the United States and Nicaragua cautioned that the fight hasn't been finalized but an agreement is expected very soon. Gonzalez made his HBO on Saturday and blew out former champion Edgar Sosa in two rounds on the Gennady Golovkin-Willie Monroe undercard. Segura last fought in September when he was stopped in 11 rounds by Gonzalez's rival Juan Francisco Estrada. Our sources indicated there is a possibility that Gonzalez's next fight will also be on Golovkin's next undercard.

The World Boxing Council has revealed that Badou Jack (19-1-1, 12KOs) vs. George Groves (21-2, 16KOs) will go to a purse bid on Friday, May 22nd.Jack, coming in as the underdog, upset the odds by winning a twelve round majority decision over previously undefeated Andre Dirrell on April 24th to capture the WBC super middleweight championship. It was a big turnaround for Jack, who a year prior was stopped in one round by Dereck Edwards.Groves became the mandatory challenger after winning a twelve round decision over Christopher Rebrasse last September. He fought once again in November, where he stopped Denis Doughlin in seven rounds.

Golovkin advances from No. 7 to No. 4, pushing past the stagnating Guillermo Rigondeaux and the aging Pacquiao and Froch, with his 20th consecutive knockout. Marquez, who has been inactive for a year, will be dropped from the ratings. Unbeaten WBC bantamweight titleholder Shinsuke Yamanaka will enter at No. 10. The new ratings are:

Overhand right travels in more of a straight line than a hook--although it's more like a sand dune in terms of trajectory.

That's a damn travesty Timmy gets dropped from the ring p4p when ggg is 4 and t craw is 9 and my old math teacher is 10
