Good match up

Good match up

How is that possible based on the form going into the fight and injury history of Thurman, everybody thinks old Thurman this ain't even the Manny Thurman, he went the distance with Barrios at 147 who was stopped by Davis at 140, do the maths with Keith going up a weight and it doesn't look like a good matchup, interesting but Tim is red hot favourite in what should be a very clear win with maybe Thurman having some moments in the first few rounds.

People can hate on illegal streaming, but without it all interest in the sport would die. That’s a solid fight card but not even close to a ppv.

Illegal streaming is low grade behaviour in my opinion. "I don't want to pay but don't have anything better do with my life either."

According to Mike Coppinger "the WBO declined to sanction the bout, so it will take place at a 155-pound catchweight without the title on the line, sources said."

So, the catch-weight seems like a byproduct of the WBO declining to sanction the fight. I don't know why it has to be at 155 if they aren't sanctioning it. I'm sure there is some ****** reason or another.

I think if Tszyu were to lose a fight at the 154lb limit the title would become vacant. There may be another reason, I might look at the rules when I can stomach negotiating the WBO's horrible website.

Non title fight. Pointless. Time for the WBO to call the mandatory

Why? 80% of Amazon customers and 80% of Amazon employees don't even know about this deal. Amazon knows they're not turning boxing into the NFL.

Haymon is using the UFC model that if enough people tune into the prelims, they'll be swayed to continue watching and buy the PPV.

Amazon is going to make sure it's the first thing their 200 million subscribers see when they turn on their televisions on fight night. Not the worst idea.

My only thing is they should've let the audience build a relationship with the fighters and sport first before diving right in and asking them to pay for it.

Most are planning on using Amazon's Fire Stick lol.

I'm not opposed to it, I just think that's funny.

Thurman (147) vs Tszyu (154), Rolly (140) vs Pitbull (135), Lara vs ????, and now Canelo (168) vs Mall (160) and all on PPV?

Man, those are some weak ass fights PBC peeing out on here. What a rip-off.

Keith will be a problem up until he quit!

I'm just saying

Well don't....and quit it with the hollering.

PBC is kinda like a a girl who gives bad blow jobs.

And at this point "long time" Keith is the granny who takes her teeth out first.
