    A card full of HW fights with none of them mismatches would be great

      That's how you do it! Big Up to Al Haymon and Bob Arum! Didn't think I was paying for this event, but it's on now!

It's not exactly a top 10 heavyweight showdown but it's pretty damn close, although kownacki is still top 10 in the wba rankings and honestly if you're more than just a casual boxing fan u should surely watch that fight, sorry for the rant but ffs it's not like it's two unknown's, I quite like kownacki's heart, for a big guy he throws so many punches and helenius doesn't exactly bore ppl to death so not sure what angle your going for here other than to tell ppl your a casual who only watches title fights
        Kownacki is 9 and helenius is gold champion, so, yeah, top 10 hws fighting

        would be nice if there was just ten top tens, but, whatever, like you say these dudes deserve some respect. They could all be fighting no-name dudes in squash matches but they're not.

          Tell me, if the 10th best and 15th best sprinter in the world were running a 100m race, would you give a toss? i wouldn't if it was on tv, but if they were on my street i would certainly want to see it, so calling these guys 'bums' it's all relative. Eg Brezeale is a good fighter, right? but for elite tier boxing he is a bum.

          I like small hall shows if that's what im watching for the evening. This fight is supposed to be the co-main event for a $70 ppv card. Come on man. there are so so many HW fights i want to watch and this isnt one of them.

          alternatively, every boxer has some level and some point of interest, whether it's his home town, his ethnicity, nationality, his personality etc.
          kowanacki vs helenius will be a good little scrap, it's good enough for £1.99 a month dazn, but $70 ppv....a co-main event fight.
          i used to watch deontay wilder fight on the arse end of an undercard when he was in his prime, non ppv cards.

          Now Ajagba vs Sanchez, there's something worth watching and that should be co-main event.




          i get the feeling your protest is because you're a pbc fanboy?

                  Most of the top ten guys don't fight each other in boxing unless it's at 115,118,122,140,154 or cruiserweight.

                    Okay, I also love watching athletics in general, have done my whole life, I'm from UK so the athletics European champions was on tv every two or so years and I was hella keen to see the 100m and u know with it being European and not the world's or Olympics there wasn't the best talent on show but u would get the odd British sprinter just inside the world top 10 so you're point about that is fkn ******... And I see you're doing it again with brezeale, it's just disrespectful **** bruh, yes he's not elite level but how does that make him a bum? And ffs, pbc fanboy? Really dude u couldn't be further off the mark. Just accept the fact that you're wrong on this one and move on, don't try and explain yourself better cos you clearly can't win this one.. Wilder is a delusional egomaniac with clear mental health problems but I still refrain from calling him a bum, and not cos he's elite level, simply because he gets in the ring, and for me anyone who does that deserves respect

                      I dunno how he got ranked the first time!

                      Dunno how he got into Glaz's title shot, dunno why he was considered a top ten, no clue how he got himself back there. Martin's ratings have always been a big mystery to me, but, I think because the dude cracks us up we all kind of let it go. I don't focus on him as much as other undeserved top tens for sure and I never really thought about it but that's got to be because his explanation for punching so hard he broke Glaz's knee or walk this earth like a god line, etc, dude cracks me up, but on the real, yeah, his ass don't earn his rankings, like, ever. Didn't earn being there, didn't earn the belt, didn't do **** since. No clue why he's pushed and favored.

                      I mean, can be because he's American, but, I dare say I could walk down the road and produce someone as good as Martin. Maybe I'm too hard on him though.


                      <--- looks at record


                      Nah, not too hard on him. Washington, Manswell, Flores are his best wins....them ain't even resume wins for most records.

                      Glaz if you count it.
