Another Black-Eye for the sport is these random promotional outifts making PPVs out of nowhere? Where do we watch Prograis vs. Zepeda???

The UK keeps handing boxing a black-eye. Josh Taylor should be added to the list of those men that disgraced our sport after this arrest in 2019 :

had it not been for his connections to Irish crime mafia capo Daniel Kinahan, the charges of possession of ******* ( found up his booty ) would have been upheld, and subsequent to UKAD and anti-doping violations according to rules set by the four major sanctioning bodies ; Josh Taylor, would have been banned ( and stripped much sooner ), like Conor Benn.

regis has just been added to little benns list of people who must apologise to him when his truth comes out and he gets off his charge

I don't know how much, nor where to watch it? Do you?

“I don’t know about Conor Benn too much,” Prograis told FightHubTV. “One thing I heard about, when I went to the UK, he fought on the undercard for Josh Taylor. People [at the time] said ‘Oh he’s not that good’ and now he’s just destroying people. He knocked out Chris van Heerden bad. He knocked out Algieri. He destroyed these guys, these guys, especially Chris van Heerden.”
“I know Chris. I sparred Chris and he fought Errol [Spence], he fought [Jaron] Ennis, and they didn’t do him like that. Conor Benn just knocked him out cold. So, I mean, if he was doing it the whole time, I don’t know, but it’s just another black eye for the sport.”

Bold is all you need to know.

Nah, but I didn’t order the last wilder fight either. I’m not a poor man by any means, we are quiet comfortable in our old age over here but boxing has taken a turn as it did in the early 2000s..ie charging fans to be fans and I think enough is enough from everyone involved. If it’s not showtime, fox, ESPN, ESPN+, then it better be PPV worthy from here on out

I feel you, and I'm in the same boat! Once Matias was off the card, I was done! I didn't buy it either! I was hoping ESPN+ was gonna have that! I guess Arum doesn't expect Zepeda to win? Hopefully Prograis vs. Ramirez will be on ESPN!!!
