That's cool, but I simply don't agree :yeshrug: Mikey had the power in sparring gloves to have Rios n Maidana respect em, but he won't get ABs in 8oz ers? I don't see it.
They about to find out breh. How many times can Broner get hyped up only to leave you wanting more. The no drama, technically sound Garcia will put in a level headed no fukkery performance and leave Broner in the bushes.

Arum has been teasing something new for awhile now without giving any clues, if HBO can't give him dates for Crawford/Indogno and Loma/Salido dude better have a better platform than streaming on Top Rank's website because I tried using that shyt for the Shakur Stevenson fight and it was ass.


Bob charged up :whew:

Undisputed seems like the next the move. Should be fairly easy fight to make.

rest of the tv ratings


]HBO’s broadcast of Crawford-Diaz ran right on the heels of a four-fight Showtime broadcast which started at 6pm ET. The Showtime main event, headlined by Gary Russell Jr. defending his world title against Oscar Escandon averaged 481,000 viewers, peaking at 517,000. The co-feature between Andre Dirrell and Jose Uzcategui averaged 354,000 viewers, topping out at 459,000.


Meanwhile the Rances Barthelemy vs. Kiryl Relikh portion of the Showtime card averaged 267,000, peaking at
295,000, while Gervonta Davis’ successful title defense against Liam Walsh averaged 228,000, topping out at 253,000

Crawford-Diaz sets the bar for HBO ratings this year

The Pacquiao Vargas card was on TR and that Valdez card they probably will team with Box Nation. Really no problem either way, can't wait on HBO to eat.

With respect to Rios & Maidana neither are good defensively. AB doesn't take too many clean shots & when he has his chin has been sturdy. We're not only talking size Smoke but speed, accuracy, & AB's physicality are major issues for him. At some point Mikey is gonna get cracked with something huge.
That's cool, I'm not discounting your points I just don't agree :yeshrug:

AB ain't exactly a master of defense either, breh. I'd add in he may have faster hands, but Mikey is quicker around the ring. I also think you're overrating his physicality, but like I said Mikey my 2nd fav fighter.

Yea he may get chin checked, or he could frustrate AB all night like Porter did. To take the size out, Ponce frustrated the shyt out of AB, and AB was bigger.

They about to find out breh. How many times can Broner get hyped up only to leave you wanting more. The no drama, technically sound Garcia will put in a level headed no fukkery performance and leave Broner in the bushes.
I don't have a lot of negative things to say about About Bunkbeds, and I'm not gonna slam on him for out of the ring stuff. Just think Mikey is a master boxer, w better fundamentals, better coach, better jab intangibles etc. but it'll be a great fight. I actually like to watch Broner when he's focused.
