Canela the pu$$y b1tch vacated.. Avoided GGG
Then povetkin gets caught with PEDS and wilder refuses to fight him.
Boxing gods pls
Just follow the Cruiserweights. It makes things so much easier.
It sucks that a couple fights hav'nt happened, but there are a ton of good matchups incoming besides the few that got mentioned. I'm really looking forward to the fights at 154 with Lara vs Vanes, Charlo vs Trout, Charlo vs Jackson and my man Andrade vs Nelson. You also have Loma vs Martinez, Vargas vs Salido, Cuellar vs Mares, LSC vs Frampton. You also have fights that are likely to happen like Ward vs Kovalev and Glowacki vs Usyk. Most aren't super fights but a lot of meaningful fights.
Those are 2 fights and Canelo/GGG was never signed and ready to go.
Wilder/Povetkin does suck. Damn Povetkin
But look at the schedule and youll see there are good fights on the horizon and past fights already happened.
This year is becoming sh1t. The only 2 good fights we're guaranteed to have are TC/Postol and Wlad/Fury. And both of those could end up snooze/clinch fests :-/
Hope Ward/Kovalev actually happens.
2015 & 2016 have been great years for boxing. We have some good fighters and matches coming. Looking forward all of Joshua's fights and the remergencey of David Haye on the scene. Was pleased that Khan showed some balls and the KO was entertaining. Fury doing well and Kell brook future fights look good.
boxing aint dead.
WTF is happening??? The sport is becoming more business than sport. Before, fighters earned big money giving fans the fights they wanted to see. Now, fighters want to make big money fighting safe fights that they want to fight. You want to earn a living, great. But don't try to sell me a cart of horseshit & call it a Cadillac.
With "hardcore fans" so happy to proclaim that boxing is a business, root for ppv numbers, cheer on drug testing, etc, its no wonder boxing is in a tailspin. When fans only care that their guy wins out of the ring before the first bell has rung, they take notice. Promoter to fighter, "dont worry, we will get our pr team to find a way out if this. We will put out a story and our rabid fans will repeat it over and over 50 times a day, 8 days a week. These gullible morons do the best work for us, for free. There will be no pressure to make the best fights, just the easiest ones".
If Kovalev/Ward doesn't happen this year I'll lose my shyt.
Postal/Crawford and Salido/Vargas are great fights though.
Really excited about Postol vs Crawford.
If Kovalev-Ward don't happen this year.. I'm gonna need a therapist
