    The fact that we're FINALLY getting the fights we want, especially in the higher divisions is a great thing. Do you hate that as a boxing fan?

      No issue with the heavyweights but 175s going up to 200 with no prep fights is worse Andrade vs Benavidez.

        Nope I don’t but you really think a Fury vs AJ fight being held in the Middle East is good ?
        Spence vs Bud in the Middle East ?
        Asking fighter’s to go up in weight for their entertainment ?
        Making the unified heavyweight champion an mma guy with a. 1-1 record ?
        Do you like that as a boxing fan ?
        Where does it stop ?

            Unless AJ is smoking crack or has a mental breakdown before the fight, he is going to smash Ngannou.

            Spence appears to be out and he has said he wants Crawford vs Tim. I think that is the fight on tap.

            From what I gather he has health issues. He wants some fights along with what fans are asking for.

            Obvious there is an end point at some point.

              Respect your train of thought but I think it’s gonna be fatal crash
              I did this so you gotta let that go which don’t make it right or fair
              But then it will be to late to go back imo

                Eh. To me this feels like a if it makes sense it'll happen & if it doesn't it won't situation so not much to get into yet.

                I think if Beterbiev wins he very could want to move up to fight Jai. I think if Bivol wins he probably won't wanna move it. Fair play to either guy if they win & wanna move up or stay at 175.

                  Turki is clearly a bit backward I think. I don’t think he understands the implications of weight classes. I’m ok with him investing in the sport and allowing an experienced promoter or matchmaker to select the fights like Warren has done for the two previous cards. However, I think it’s a terrible idea to let some mega rich Sheikh with no experience in boxing start putting fights together.

                    I know for a fact that Beterbiev said if he didn’t get the Bivol fight , he would move up to cruiserweight
                    But I don’t think Bivol feels the same way
                    Still , imo , should be the boxers decision if they would like to or not
