Essential The Official Boxing Random Thoughts Thread...All boxing heads ENTER.

"Sources close to the situation have informed us that a showdown between undefeated welterweight champion Keith Thurman and former world champion Shawn Porter is definitely taking place in early 2016. Fans have been itching for the fight to be finalized ever since FightHype.com first broke the news back in August that the bout was already in the works. Since then, however, there have been several erroneous reports about potential dates, venues, and networks. At one point, Team Porter even claimed that the fight may not take place at all, suggesting that Thurman was not happy with his financial arrangements. Fortunately, we're told that fans can rest easy knowing that the two fighters are still on a collision course to face each other next.

On January 23, Premier Boxing Champions will be making its Fox prime time debut when undefeated former world champion Danny Garcia faces multi-division former world champion Robert Guerrero. One source informs us that similarly, the Thurman vs. Porter bout will likely headline PBC's prime time debut on CBS some time in February. Although the official date, venue, and network is still being finalized and plans could change, our understanding is that Thurman vs. Porter could very well take place either February 20th or February 27th on CBS prime time. Either way, our sources all confirm that Keith Thurman and Shawn Porter will indeed be facing each other for their next bout.

It should be noted that Keith Thurman also headlined two other prime time debuts for Premier Boxing Champions. On March 7, he defeated Robert Guerrero in the very first PBC card on NBC prime time, and on July 11, he defeated Luis Collazo on the inaugural PBC card on ESPN prime time."

WTF nikka.

Today's fighters do want to be great...........................














great businessmen



But, this was still a very good year for boxing. fukking undercards saved the day though.

Floyd's influence on Boxing reminds me of Jay-Z's influence on the rap game. When Jay-Z had all the mini Hov's running around saying "Im not a business man....Ima BUSINESS man!" or "I aint no rapper, Ima hustla"



Floyd has a ton of really good Boxers trying to emulate him business wise, but yet they aren't willing to emulate him resume wise....which is the Catch 22 as to why they will never match him business wise

Exactly

You made me remember nikkas like Billy Bathgate and Sacario with that post.

The thing is with these nikkas emulating Floyd, they're just like most of his stans.....They only really know and followed his actions from the Oscar fight onward.

Never knew we had an Evan Fields stan here brehs




First off, standard urine/blood tests they were using weren't strong enough to test for PEDs. That's the whole reason we have VADA and USADA today (which we didn't have back in the mid 80s-mid 90s when Fields was in his prime) to provide much stronger testing than what was in place



Anyways, your boy was dirty imo



Significant increase in muscle mass? Check. Bigger head size? Check. Heart problems? Check. All things associated with long term steroid usage.



Evan Fields birth date listed was October 19th, 1962....same birthday as Evander Holyfield



The address for Evan Fields was 794 Evander, Fairfield, GA, 30213 which is VERY similar to Evander Holyfield's address of 794 Evander Holyfield Hwy, Fayetteville, GA, 30214. ALSO, that "Evan Fields" address is not a real location...it doesn't exist. Try and google map it and nothing will come up



Lastly, per the investigation, the phone number listed to Evan Fields was called..........and guess who answered? Evander Holyfield himself I wonder what he was doing at Evan Fields home? Maybe they were friends?



nikkas don't go from the Cruiserweight Champion looking like this:

To the Heavyweight Champion looking like this:

And then randomly start suffering from an enlarged heart at 31 years old, with no red flags





But if that's what you wanna believe, that Evan Fields put on all that muscle mass, head got larger, bad heart, all that happened because of his hard work and dedication through sparring, pushups/situps, roadwork, heavy bad...go ahead, stan away breh




It's okay to disregard the fact that Evan Fields name was linked to not 1, but 2 different pharmacys that were under investigation for supplying steroids to athletes




He's still real to you dammit
