No, i didn't breh. You misunderstood then.


Then, I did :salute: :obama:


I got Bud...

I think Thurman is a tougher matchup for Bud...but i also think Spence destroys Thurman.

Bud Beats Spence. Thurman beats both.

Thurman is a very crafty fighter. Spence is not as crafty.

I see Bud keeping Spence at bay with the long stiff jab and tagging him as he's trying to get inside.

Mikey Garcia Ring Return Eyed For January 27, No More For 2017 - Boxing News


Former three division world champion Mikey Garcia was hoping to fight for a third time in 2017, but that's not going to happen.

The television schedule has already become very packed until the remainder of the year. Garcia's next fight is being targeted for January 27, according to a team source who spoke with ESPN Deportes.

For now, Garcia has decreased his intensity with respect to training, as it's become apparent that he won't fight until 2018.

:jbhmm: But, I thought he was sending a contract to Robert Easter Jr and fighting him in December? :patrice:

Ray Beltran Slated To Fight For Vacant WBO Title on February 3

By Miguel Rivera

One door closes and another door opens.

Tough Mexican boxer Ray Beltran (34-7-1, 21 KOs) announced that he was notified by his promoter, Top Rank, that he will fight for the vacant World Boxing Organization lightweight title on February 3 against an opponent to be confirmed and a venue to be finalized.

His fight will come down on the same day Gilberto 'Zurdo' Ramírez is scheduled to defend the super middleweight title of the WBO. Both fights will be televised by ESPN as part of their long-term content deal with Top Rank.

The news came down to Beltran after the WBO revealed that undefeated world champion Terry Flanagan had relinquished his title in order to make a jump to the junior welterweight limit of 140 pounds.

Among the possible opponents for Beltran include Russia's Roman Andreev, Namibian Paulus Moses, Japan's Nihito Arakawa, UK fighter Craig Evans or even Puerto Rican contender Felix Verdejo.

"It's already a fact, they have not given me details but confirmed to me earlier today [that I will be fighting for a title]," Beltran said in a brief talk with ESPN Deportes.

Beltran has won five in a row since losing a twelve round decision to Terence Crawford in November 2014.

In his next fight, Beltran actually captured the vacant WBO title with a knockout of Takahiro Aoh in Las Vegas. The fight became a no-contest after Beltran failed a post-fight drug test.

Beltran has a brutal knockout of Jonathan Maicelo in May and then followed it up with a decision win over Bryan Vasquez in August.

He became the WBO's mandatory challenger after Verdejo was removed by the sanctioning due to inactivity.

Flanagan, who held the title, was not very interested in facing Beltran. Instead, he was involved in serious negotiations to face WBA champion Jorge Linares in a unification clash tapped for the first quarter of 2018. But that deal never got done and Flanagan decided to move up instead.

i wonder who top rank is going to pencil in for him

Honestly I aint even a fan but I just think that Thurman beats everybody at 147

Aint nothing wrong with that...he's undefeated, can box, has power, has speed, can move. It's not an outlandish statement.



Im sure it's a 99% consensus in this thread that either Keith Thurman, Errol Spence, or Terence Crawford is going to rise to the top as new King of 147.



All I can say is, "pick wisely":demonic:

To quote you "Mikey is one of the few out there constantly looking to fight the best, and unify" its disappointing he'll have a 6 month lay off but, what can I do? Pickup the #SmokeLine after the year Mikey had? Maybe. Well see what Novembreh brings.

Spence aint losing to nobody with Gamboa problems.......Crawford doesn' even have a washed up Zab Judah on his record so we could properly

Crawford starts winning some of my theoretical matches once he beats Horn who gets slighted just because he kicked Mannys ass
