good follow through is so pretty to me to see a guy just crush what he is trying to hit.

you know you got good follow through when you can just go all the way through what you are trying to hit and you dont even feel anything. i mean just crush it. just pure smoke. i can grab a box of junior mints and just sit and view videos of anything with good follow through all day.

FOTY Candidate for sure.

Valdez still won clearly to me, but I'm bias. #SmokeSquad delivers another classic.

@yawn your boy GRJ needs to fight more than once a year and come holla at us, that left hook that knocked down Marriaga would have killed #SaunaMan

Mariaga tough as hell though. After that knock down he still came on strong. This was Oscar's gut check and he pulled through.

always some fukkery around that family

I'll wait to the details before I judge but I would be VERY surprised if it would be off cause of Parker and nt because of some fukkery around team Fury

It seems like Joseph Parker team insist that its the Fury side that is tripping. Earlier I think fury's trainer(or was it a relative) was disallowed from entering the country. It seems like this time it may be an injury?

It's crazy how these two are so vocal about unifying with Hurd but ain't trying to see each other.

Charlo Lara is a good fight. Everybody quick to holla Hurds name now. "Took my brothers title" And they know damn well that was a vacant strap. These your 154 "champions"

Edit:

Especially Lara... Charlo wants to unify and they won't fight each other with Lara (wondering what would happen if Schaefer's tournament would iclude 154 though... ) and no WBO champion in the division right now so that leaves Hurd... but Lara... It's so obvious that he just wants to avoid Andrade with this a little more... He's like begging to Hurd for that unification After Andrade beat Culcay he suddenly started to bomb Hurd with all these twitter messages.

11th of March: Andrade beats Culcay for the regular WBA belt
15th of March: Lara starts tweeting about Hurd...

You can run but you can't hide

Let Hurd fight Charlo then while Andrade gets that WBA belt

Billy Joe Saunders vs. Avtandil Khurtsidze on July 8, Copper Box

By Carlos Boogs

According to promoter Frank Warren WBO champion Billy Joe Saunders (24-0, 12 KOs) will likely defend his world title against Avtandil Khurtsidze (33-2-2, 22 KOs) on July 8th at the Copper Box in London.

On Saturday night at the Leicester Arena in Leicester,Khurtsidze (33-2-2, 22 KOs) blasted out undefeated Tommy Langford in five rounds to secure the WBO interim-middleweight title - and a shot at full

Langford was the much taller fighter and tried his best to create distance, but all it took was one massive left hook from the 37-year-old Khurtsidze to close the show.

Saunders was being lined up for a June unification with IBO, WBA, WBC IBF middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin. The fight fell through when Golovkin's handlers revealed that GGG was still pretty sore from his March win over Daniel Jacobs and wasn't physically ready to jump right back to training camp.

The champion has been very inactive in the last two years. He's only fought once since capturing the WBO belt from Andy Lee in December 2015. He returned last December, not in the best of shape, and won a tough decision over Artur Akavov.

Khurtsidze has only lost once since 2005 - a 2010 decision loss to Hassan N'Dam. Since then he's won ten fights in a row, and his last six fights have ended inside the distance.

"He's a good banger the guy. You can see by his record how many knockouts he's got. At least now the British fans know who he is and he's qualified now for Billy Joe Saunders," Warren told IFL TV.

"This fight [with Langford] was all part of the deal, with Lou DiBella's office. We worked very hard to enable Bill to get the shot against Golovkin, including [working] with Golovkin's people. And that meant putting on the interim-title, giving this guy [Khurtsidze] step-aside money, and that's what we did. And now Bill has to fight him and that's where we are."

"We want to go, as you heard, on the 8th of July. That's the date we're looking at... in London. Bill will fight on the 8th of July in London, Copper Box."
