Golden Boy/Top Rank to go head to head, Jan. 19th in NYC on Showtime/HBO

Top Rank having an event January 19th at Madison Square Garden on HBO. Mikey Garcia vs. Orlando Salido. Golden Boy having and event January 19th at Barclays Center on Showtime. Danny Garcia vs. Zab Judah. I am blaming Top Rank for this no reason to have this event on the East Coast between two Mexican fighters go to California, Texas, or Vegas come on. THIS COLD WAR IS KILLING BOXING

Barclays: -Garcia/Judah -Quillin/TBA -??? MSG: -Garcia/Salido -GGG/TBA -??? TR has the better main event imho, but GBP love to stack their under-cards so we'll see. Can someone send GBP matchmakers a memo, PUT MATTHYSSE ON THE UNDER-CARD!

I for one would much prefer to watch both fights live rather than watching one later of switching back and forth during both fights. I don't understand why they do this.

Considering how the first fight with morales went id say im proud he destroyed him in 4. I like nonito and hope destroys arce as well! 1000% agreed. If these young guns want the old guys to get outta the way, then start knocking them the FUCK out. I'm hoping that Nonito blasts Arce, so it'll force him to check where he's at in his career and he'll hopefully retire.

Not going back to the Barclays center so might catch the Garcia-Salido fight if it has a good undercard

isn't..... Donaire fighting Arce next month? 1. Arce is not as washed up as Morales, not even close. 2. I won't be bragging about Donaire beating him, I don't like that fight.

Ill pass... Garcia vs Judah... And Quillin might have a soft touch since he showed his inexperience last time. Ill have HBO on my TV and Showtime on my river. :banana: Btw IMO Salido-Garcia is better than Garcia-Judah. I love going to NYC whenever there's a fight i'm interested or a big-ish event I can get people to come with me. If I can get people, i'll drive on over there

Showtime will have 3-4 fights but the HBO card will only likely have 2 bouts which is a shame.

Mikey and GGG are gonna be on the same card/event dawg! But if GGG vs TBA are on at the same time as Quillin vs TBA Ill be watching Quillin instead on my river. They are? I thought they were trying to put him in Barclay's and GGG at the Garden? Womp, I was misinformed.... gonna be a good night then.

why go head to head though when there are multiple free weekends of boxing programming? At the same time though the amount of quality televised Boxing is at an all-time high there are good fights and sometimes more than one every weekend.GBP flexing their muscles. In the mean time this Jan weekend im gonna have a BBQ, 24 pack of beer and enjoy a long night of boxing
