Tomorrow night, rematch of one of the best fights this year takes place on DAZN...not enough talk about this fight.
Cancio was way too strong in the first fight, but machado claims he was very weight drained...both fighters proved they can hurt n put each other on the canvas, so who wins?
Ill go with cancio again, this time by stoppage in the 9th in an even better fight.
Aw man forgot, I do want to follow the Parker fight. I'll get highlights. The fight with Dillian was a great one. I'm good with Whyte getting the nod, but I could see if you wanted to give it to Parker, in the 12th rnd. Funny, now Parker-Ruiz II is a borderline HUGE fight to be made. A month ago, it's on the undercard. Erickson Lubin (WBC JrMW Eliminator) I forgot is on the Charlo card too, on Showtime.
The other fight I was talking about is on ESPN, Richard Commey vs Ray Beltran for Commey's IBF Lightweight title. Both have a good back story. Beltran was all set for a big payday against Lomachenko, when Pedraza worked him over and took the title in his first defense. Then he had hand surgery n stuff...and KO's Hiroki Okada (I know lot a folk don't follow LW's).
The Rigo fight, not AS bad of a stoppage, but same thing with Ceja being ahead. I had picked Rigo by wide decision, so points wise I was way off.
Well I gotta get my PICKS in. It's just those 3 fights...
I might try Beltran for an upset. :dunno:
I think parkers gonna get the winner of ruiz-joshua 2, or maybe the dillian Whyte rematch. I'm cool with either one.
Unfortunately for me I don't get ESPN so I won't be able to watch commey-beltran.
But there's 2 afternoon cards today on DAZN n ESPN+ so I'll be watching those.
I'm going with comment, Andrade, Parker, n Charlo.
Did you see the rigandeux-ceza fight? Another horrible stoppage, great fight though.
I'm looking forward to seeing Joseph Parker this weekend, I thought he edged out dillian Whyte in what was a terrific fight. That win over Andy Ruiz looks a lot better now, will be interesting to see what improvements he makes.

Yeah man I meant to ask what you thought of that stoppage. It did have that Meldrick Taylor feeling to it.
So what about this weekend ? Commey, Andrade, and Charlo ? Or do you think Beltran has a good shot ? He's 38 though, and I think Commey is hungry. IDK. Beltran is tough. Could take it to decision. Hmmm.

Picks...
I'll have to check it out.
But how about the acosta-soto fight!? FOTY candidate for sure, but a horrible stoppage, especially since Acosta shoulda been up on the cards, would love to see a rematch.
That fight and the Cobb fight were GREAT, n I'm extremely satisfied with both DAZN cards yesterday.
Peace, n god bless.

Kevin Iole - Yahoo Sports - June 19, 2019
Andrew Cancio - "I’m 100 percent committed to boxing, it’s just that I don’t get to stay at home and rest all day. I have kids, and I haven’t made the big money. I haven’t made s--- in boxing, to tell you the truth. In the 13 years I’ve been a pro, I had a $50,000 payday with JoJo Diaz; I had a $75,000 payday with Machado the last time, and this one is $125,000. The rest of them were all $8,000 a fight, like that."
Well, :boxing: in a sense we were both wrong, in that Machado really can't seem to do much of anything against Cancio. I suppose it was a "war" for 1 or 2 rounds. I mean, even his career is questionable now to me, if everybody is able to use Cancio's blueprint. You were spot on regarding the body shots. Maybe it's the 130 weight, IDK.
I'm pissed I didn't change my pick. Thinking with the heart too much maybe.
I'm just getting tired of picking wrong ! Well, I did get Hart, Fury, and Warrington right, but Dorticos and Briedis wrong.
You should join the NSB PICK EM'S. It's fun and makes the cards more interesting (as well as pissed off). You notice I usually rap with you and a couple other guys before each weekend, about picks. Well, take care. I hope Rigo pulls through. Damn Machado poser ! Peace.
I'll have to check it out.
Unfortunately for me, I fell asleep after the first round, n woke up just in time to see the replay of the body shot, lol!
I thought the co main would go like the main event did, n the main like the co feature, but yup, we were wrong.

Charlo n rigorous up next, I don't know anything about their opponents, but hopefully they can be somewhat competitive.
Peace, n god bless.
Good analysis. I thought Machado would show more finesse in the rematch, but Cancio had his number. Unbelievable that Cancio is still working a full-time job. Good luck to the man
Haha lets go!!
No doubt, machado will put up a better fight than the first time around...i just dont know how he will react to cancios body shots, especially in the middle to late rounds. Either way, i think were in for a war n i cant wait!!
As for sundays card, ive yet to see either rigo or charlos opponents, but im likely gonna check em out on youtube tomorrow..but most likely rigo n charlo will win in convincing fashion, its too bad harrison got hurt.

I never love these bad KO immediate rematch situations. Thought it was a bad idea for Dogboe & that turned into a fact. Think its a bad idea for Joshua. And I think its a bad idea here. Bold way to comeback from an L if you win obviously, but I don't love the odds of people reversing the first result.
So I think Cancio just might have Machado's number & it kinda looked like it in the first fight. I'm going with Cancio, but this is an interesting matchup between a legit professional boxer & a guy who can obviously box, but its more a side gig then its his main gig still. I tend to think a lot of the behind the scenes massively go into the favor of the legit pro boxer in this situation, but then again sometimes a guy is just wrong for you & maybe thats whats up here.
I agree...freddie roach was talking about how machado had an extra two weeks to lose the weight, but i dont see that being much of a difference...but based off machados fighting pride alone n willingness to avenge his loss, were in for a great fight.
Well, I picked Machado last time so I'm going with Machado again. I didn't really expect him to stay at JrLW after all the weight talk and with his height, but I'm trusting that he's got that figured out.
Hoping he uses his reach advantage and had a better camp.
I'm going with a stoppage as well, but Machado with a TKO in the 8th.
You got a pick for Sunday, Rigo vs Ceja ? I'm also expecting Sergio Garcia and Charlo to have an "easy" time with Rabchanka and Cota, respectively. Rigo by Decision. What say you ?
Let's roll bro :boxing:
