I got my money on JBR:boxing:
Like Usyk, Inoue is a boxing genius. JBR is too youth reckless and that will be his downfall. Inoue will play him like a master fiddler.

Can't disagree with you at all on how pathetic boxing has become. However, Zayas will be an EASY fight for Boots.
I can’t wait for the universal, galactic, super solar, planetary, hemispheric, inner continental, Hispanic, semi Latino, meso American, bronze tinted silver, champion in recess belt

Manny's long time trainer, Roach expressed significant concerns regarding the undisclosed drinks and "concoctions" that former strength and conditioning coach Ariza gave to Pacquiao. You can watch the clip below yourself and hear it from the horses' mouth saying and I quote, "The reason I don't work with Ariza is because he is shady and I don't like him. He used to give Manny a drink EVERYDAY before workouts and I would ask him what's in those drinks and he would NEVER tell me. I said to him that I need to know what's in that drink because you are giving it to my fighter and if something goes wrong I'm going to get blamed".
Roach then proceeds to say that now that Ariza is working with Brandon Rios, it doesn't surprise him at all that Rios tested positive for Steroids. Ariz was a new addition to Rios' team and for the first time in his career Rios tests positive for steroids.
Roach is on record saying he doesn't know what Manny was ingesting. WE ALL KNOW THE TRUTH except you. These are facts.

That’s funny, I seem to recall Pac man kicking Roach to the curb not the other way around.
sounds like sour milk to me
Sad to think how many boxers have wasted their potential and careers due to inactivity. It was like yesterday I remember Spence being 19/20 yo and thought he is going places. Now he’s 36!!!! His career is done and it could have been much much better. Sad really

Clown huh? Oh you JakeTheboxer .... Usyk literally cleaned out the HW division AFTER coming up from CW. Usyk himself is a "blown up" CW and beat behemoths like AJ and Fury. Multiple times if I may add.
At 39 years old, many advise him to retire since he has nothing else to prove but he chooses to fight a kick boxer perhaps retire soon after but we don't know. But the great JakeTheBoxer with a great boxing resume and a rich history of boxing knowledge deems Usyk to be a "clown fighting blown up LHWs".
Incredible stuff to read.
It’s because Jaketheclown is an idol worshipping fanboi that doesn’t know sh!te about boxing. He wants Usyk to prove himself by cleaning out the division again when he is 50. Until then in Jaketheclowns view Usyk is a clown.
This is why sport fans of all other sports laugh hysterically at the low IQ of boxing fans.
I just hope you're not talking about Ryan. He got KOd by Tank, knocked down by Campbell, knocked down and beat by Rolly. The low hanging fruit has a reason for being the low hanging fruit.
He’s the WBC welterweight champion. You may not like him. You may be jealous of him but you cannot deny he is world class talent. Boxers lose. That’s the business. Anything else?
Indeed...Fury only 'unretired' when it looked like AJ was gonna walk away from the game after losing Sina and Latz.
And now he's literally begging Joshua after realizing he has zero leverage and even less clout to force the issue.
Puhhhleassseee!! AJ is one of the most fumbling, bumbling HW boxing champions ever. He steps on his own toes, is uncoordinated as shit and has a glass jaw to go with it. He is predictable and gasses out quick. This schtick of “two time champion” is laughable. The real champ was wrongly stripped and it was delivered back to AJ gift wrapped by placing him with a nobody. He lucked into an era of aged champions and a weak ass era of up and comers. In any other era he’d be lower half of top 20. Gypsy is gonna dice him up at the end of his jab and make the uncoordinated body builder run into an upper cut.
AJ is finished
GABE SPITZER, head of sports at Netflix, if the fight is signed and you guys announced it why are NF attorneys not pouncing on Floyd right now if legit contracts as Manny is alluding to were signed? You should be fired this is a complete farce and disgraceful for NF...
Hmmmm…listen to some random poster…or the heads of a multi-billion dollar corporation…hmmmm
And for the record I've never moaned over corrupt promoters in America because I wasn't naive and understood that a certain level of corruption came with the sport because it was so unregulated. From the 70s-90s we in America understood that boxing was controlled by Don King and Bob Arum, but we got the fights we wanted. Then it was the cold war between HBO and Showtime, but we got the fights we wanted. Then it looked like it was going to be a 3 way war between PBC-GBP-TR with them duking it out on Showtime and ESPN and we were going to get the fights we wanted. Then the foreigners came in and screwed it all up. First Len Blalatvatnat, Then Daniel Kinahan, followed by Eddie Hearn, King Turki and finally the big American scumbag Dana White himself. We were doing just fine until all these bozos got all up in our business! SMH
I’m with Teddy Atlas on this. There should be a single governing body under a singular rule set instead of every state having its own commission. There should be a singular belt per weight class. Boxing has become a hysterical clown car show of epic proportions. New fans to the sport can’t grasp 10 champions per division. It’s becoming WWE esque. Next will be the universal, intergalactic, galaxy class, solar system style, planetary, continental, statewide, countyship, city busting, neighborhood, gold champion. It’s truly a three ring circus.
You got me beat by a little. My time was the 80s. I missed the 60s and 70s but I did catch the golden era with the 4 kings. There will never be another era like it. Everyone was getting paid all around. Now it’s all about protecting that 0. Too bad those proclaiming to be “GOAT” aren’t even in the stratosphere of the boxers that fought 5-6 times a year.
Another thing….it’s hilarious that we bitch and moan over corrupt promoters being in bed with the orgs then when there’s a chance to bust them up and shake it up a little they defend the status quo. Boxing fans are some of the most mentally stunted of all sports fans.
It’s laughable
I am 100% with Eddie Hearn (imagine that) on this. If a new boxing promoter is going to enter the UK market then he better abide by the same rules and regulations that the British promoters have to. Damn Right!!!
Oh, you mean the ones that established promoters set up with the boards to make it almost impossible for anyone else to break in? The ones we bitch about because they allow crooks into the mix while the fans stay perpetually screwed. Those same rules and regulations?
Dry your tears, son. Is Alimkhanuly your fkn cousin or something?
Not at all. I grow weary of those bashing those caught. They put their bodies through hell for our entertainment. ALL BOXERS are actively or have hit PEDS. We pretend the selected fav isn’t.
This shows once again how terribly corrupt US politicians are.
It isn’t corrupt politicians. It’s politicians who are out of their league. They are ignorant. They are lawyers who haven’t the faintest clue what boxing is. It’s like asking a politician to manage a budget. Anything a politician is involved in is not good for us. Period.
This coward knew Lara was gonna beat his a$$ like a rented mule, so he got on the juice.
News flash genius, ANY “boxer” not in VADA 24/7 is actively, has actively or thinking of actively taking PEDS. Even your fav of all favs man crush “boxer.” Now you can defend whoever you wish that’s not on VADA 24/7.
No because top fighters won't fight for peanuts like UFC fighters do, at least Turkey was making good fights and over paying guys and good for them.
The “top fighters” don’t fight for peanuts. They are millionaires as is their boxing contemporaries. Then again ask Floyd what those millions mean to him.
Trash fight , just like the UFC trash no one watches, that's why they had to go to Paramount cuase ESPN knew they are not worth 7 Billion. Otherwise they would have kept them.
You’d be mistaken in your assumption. One champion per division. The best fights the best (unlike silly 5 boxing trinket champions and fights against nobodies 10 years into their career). Boxing had its heyday in the 90s. Yes ppv will trump UFC. However, those are individual boxers. Most of your boxers are dirt poor. Unlike all other professional sports. Boxing is dying because of corruption all around.
They didn’t reply to your money grubbing stalking because maybe for once they are shutting you out as insignificant. Maybe a fighter who is gaining traction said the people will decide who is champ and not some silly trinket in which you pay 6 figures to hold every time you fight. Sillyman sounds like a pathetic ex chasing his lover down who won’t respond to calls. Who the hell made Sillyman the arbiter of anything? If not for his extortion, he’d be another poor used car salesman. It’s high time premiere boxers ignore the whims of a psychophant.
I'll believe it when it gets signed. Oscar does not want this fight to happen. He'll find a way to torpedo it somehow, probably while wearing velvet fish nets, a suede thong, &, open toed high heels with his nose dripping, numb as hell
Does that make you moist?
I couldn't agree with you more. I agree with that as well. The problem is, they've gone beyond that. They're grabbing folks that have lived here for years paying taxes to this country and helping make it a better place. You're picking an extreme situation to make yourself feel better of all the wrong mixed into this as well. The majority that come here are looking for a better life and not trying to get into trouble. You will have bad folks as well because they're part of the mass that come over. Though if 1% is bad among all of them that came over and you isolate only them, it makes it look bad for the honest folks.
Dude, I like your passion. I truly do. However, taking your example. I’ve been paying into Social Security and Medicare since the working age of 15 for 35 years. I’ve made a great deal of money along the way. It’s a statistical fact that almost 50% of LEGAL residents pay almost no federal income tax. After rebates, IRS refund, Social Services etc. Take an illegal. Got here at 30. Works a menial job and lives check to check. Pays into the system only 30 years through their working life starts to draw on the same areas I do; Social Security, Medicare etc. Now, I’ve paid a shit ton more than my illegal counterpart. There’s a reason why these systems are going broke. Compound that with States paying out social services and then running to the feds to be bailed out and now the problem has been exacerbated.
Once upon a time, our immigration system was built upon SKILLED trades (people who contribute to society) doctors, engineers, etc. Now its been relegated to send me you’re tired hungry and poor. All should be sent back. This shouldn’t be, but I was able to not be found for 30 years so I have a right to stay here. That’s not how this works nor should it! If it takes 8-10 years to be legalized then so be it! Go through the correct way. Anyone that is here that hasn’t gone through the system has broken the law. Laws mean something in an orderly and civilized society. I don’t care if they busted their asses for the length of time they have been here. If I were to even attempt the same in most countries my ass would be in prison and RIGHTLY SO. I broke your laws. I disrespected your country. You broke the law period. We are not the worlds caretaker, we are going bankrupt as a country and do not need saddled with more debt.
WTF are you talking? The poorest with 3 or more jobs who are till living from paycheck to paycheck are somehow some of the most prosperous in the world. I reckon you are living in a delusional universe.
Don King is only relevant in this discussion for he and his ilk are the reason why the Mohammed Ali Act is created. White is aiming to strip fighters their right to earn what they are commercially worth.
Educate yourself and look up global statistics. The poorest in our country are FAR more prosperous than the global poor and it’s not even close. Our social safety net is uncomparable
Right now, the US is under a white can no do no wrong and the enemies are anyone of any color but white. There is no way they want to put any negative light on white folks at this time. You get someone from another country that murdered someone, it's on Fox news all week. You get a white dude who killed his neighbor, you don't hear a damn word about it.
“A white dude that shoots his neighbor” hate to break it to you isn’t national news. But an illegal alien that doesn’t belong here, never belonged here, has been on deportation orders for years and was let in with no checks and balances, was caught committing crimes and re released back into society kills an innocent then yes, hate to bust that bubble you live in, is a tragedy. People are sick of it . You don’t get that? You live under a rock?
Both need an electric chair
There was also a mass shooting in the US less people are talking about yesterday over 15 shot, why no sympathies there for students murdered? No shocker that it is another white shooter. They shoot up a school every couple of days but seems like no one cares once it's identified as someone white seems like no one cares anymore and they get a pass with a mental health card. They need the electric chair just as much as the Australia shooters.
Name me a single “white” mass shooter in the last 50 years that “no one cares” and “got a pass with a mental health card.”
I guess professional boxers prefer these "crooks" to slavemaster White. The worst crooks in the world today are American monopolists known for their exploitation of their workers and consumers. There's a reason why these crooks always run to corrupt politicians for undue favor.
Professional boxers who put their lives on the line each time they step in the ring have the right to negotiate their reward. They must unite to stop White from turning them into "******".
I know right! It sucks that even our poorest are still some of the most prosperous in the world! But hey what do I know. Poor people take the risks and cut the checks dontcha know?
Don King disagrees with your sentiment.
I don’t know why every article mentions the sham of the Olympics he was gifted. Every boxing fan knew he lost one if not two fights. It was known then as it is now. AJ was nothing but a face on a body builders frame. If not for that sham of an olympics and an aged heavyweight in Klitschko, AJ would br nothing but a smudge in boxing history.
I agree, people on this board have no idea and have not used. You would absolutely have negative effects if using right before a fight. Your stamina would be **** b/c your heart beat would not recover in-between rounds. You will be jittery, and not relaxed while throwing and slipping punches, causing you to gas. Your breathing would be **** and your punches would be stiff and telegraphed.
Well, you are on a forum where 80% have either served time or haven’t elevated beyond a 7th grade education.
There’s that
I'm disgusted. Why aren't you? People paid good money and were sold a lie. Wardley could've died. Grow up
Please, please stop posting things you know nothing about. Here’s some sage advice. “Sometimes it’s best to remain silent and thought to be ignorant, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.”
You sir, aren’t the sharpest tool in the toolbox.
UFC couldn't do Francis vs Jon Jones.
UFC couldn't do Aspinal vs Jon Jones, stop the cap.
Youre citing limited fights. Theres no debate that UFC by a longshot pits top fighter against top fighter during prime than boxing does and its not even close.
