You just caused your old English teacher to punch himself in the balls , twice.

if my English teacher had balls she shure concealed them well enough to get the attention of the boyz in clazz Man was she something else detention with her was a gift...........

...and Stanionis has been very inactive too. Thurman is taking the match-up that he has the best chance to win. I'm hoping Stani wins decisively.

At least he's had four camps

...which means it's possible he'll be over-trained. Thurman is taking a calculated risk here. At least Stani didn't take 12 rounds of punishment from Ortiz. I used to be a big fan of Thurman, but I'm hoping Stani retires him.

Anybody know why this farce is competing with Prograis-Haney? Or is this just further evidence of why they've been forced to leave?

Yeah - they have to make the fight by the end of the year - a massive UFC PPV is on December 16 and it's Christmas the next weekend.

Prograis-Haney is for the hardcores only, it's not a mainstream fight. Much better option to program against.

...Or the stable costs too much money and fighters were refusing to take less in order to remain active. It's time for PBC to stop hoarding their stable and let them take opportunities that other networks/promoters are offering. Fulton shouldn't be the only one who's allowed to take a big fight off PBC island.

Diaz, Molina, Wilder, Ruiz, Porter, Martin, Fulton, and now De Los Santos! How many fighters have had to SUE to get out of PBC?

Do you think DAZN will out sell PBC on December 9th?

Thurman may be a bigger name than Haney, but his chronic inactivity has affected his marquee value. Stanionis isn't a big name, and he's also been very inactive. Lara and Danny Garcia also have bigger names than Haney, but also very inactive. Haney has been more visible than all of them.

De Los Santos is a good shout. Hopefully he puts on a good performance against Shakur. There's a TON that can be said about the names you mentioned.

A Mayweather / Pacquiao rematch ? Who wants to see that again , especially now that they qualify for 10% off at Dennys ? That fight ****** enough the first time. I'm sorry that I watched it.

Is that worse than watching Mikey fist pump for 12 rounds again?
