    This weekend feels like a big weekend for boxing.
    I hope it delivers. War Boxing!

      If boxing won't make them fight topless (which seems to be a good thing visually...keep them flapjacks covered up).....
      At least make them fight 3 minute rds and 12 rd title fights.

Since then, nothing. Funnily enough I saw this covered on BBC News who didn't comment about the FuryWhyte until the day it happened and even then they seem half interested despite it being the biggest British fight in some years. I guess we will see from the broadcast numbers.
        Even if it's Fake (it's not)...it's better than Stevenson/Valdez, which has no hype at all except from the hardcores.

            Stevenson/Valdez would not sell over 14,000 in the main room in MSG....heck, they can't sell 14,000 now & they are fighting in the MGM Grand.

            But you're a sexist so I can't really debate with you.

              - - After Stevie Wonderless stinks up the ring vs Valdez who is an old school fighter, Katie and Amanda gonna outshine the boys by default.

              Sez more about the run and stink dereliction of modern American boxing than the greatness of womens' boxing.

                  Main events don't collide, and yes, Dazn is first Boxing is Great. Nash is pretty sure on their Stevenson pick, not so much on the other, but something is telling Nash, go with Serrano, so that's Nash's pick. Nash out.

                    Bob said that nobody cares about women boxing and he was wrong and wrong by putting this fight at the same night.

                      You're lying to yourself...Stevenson couldn't sell out the Prudential Center in Newark, his hometown.

                      But again, you're sexist so you have to make a lie to live with yourself.
