Naoya Inoue vs Ramon Cardenas - ESPN+

[El_Feroz99]

This card is absolute fire compared to what was on this weekend. My only complaint is the timing. I'm all in on all boxing, but late night sunday is a stretch I will pull, but i cant think there is the audience this card needs that feel the same.

Should have started way earlier IMHO. Not sure what they were competing against tbf. Even still, I think earlier would be better. Not many folks willing to feel like garbage at work the next day to watch boxing.

Yeah, that's valid. I'm on the East Coast so I'm not sure I'll be making it to the end tonight. Early morning, long day tomorrow. Wish they would've started where we could've had an 8/9 PM main event time, even if they had to put it on ESPN2 instead of ESPN due to baseball.

Thanks man, I figured they were competing with something. It's just bad timing for exposure for the worlds most exciting fighter. Pac and even Nonito got their due, but inoue fights at strange times for casuals and it's a shame. Hey I get up for his home cards and am excited to do so, but I know friends, who if he was on in primetime from time to time at least, would be interested in watching after seeing.

Polanco shimmying, shaking, jawing, playing to the crowd. Lot of charisma in this dude.

[El_Feroz99]

Not throwing shade at this card, I'm having fun! But when you are watching hype prospect fights and having fun as opposed to the last two nights something is terribly wrong.

Begging Turki and surviving took over this weekend and it's sad. Too much money on the line at the high end to incentivize any risk. Rolly was the only one who really pulled deep....let that sink in for a hot second. Jfc

Maidana too tough for his own good.

Polanco was just in a different class than Maidana.

Maybe too soon, but I’d like to see Polanco in with vet like David Avanesyan in the near future. IBO champ Tulani Mbenge or Nicklaus Flaz would be a solid match ups too.

TR should bring Maidana back to fight Tiger Johnson, A better match up for Maidana and a good test for Tiger.

Throw the swing bout on, TR!!

Looking foward to Espinoza's fight, aware about the elbow controversy but considering that's not particularly what he did prior the rematch, I think the illegal elbows were accidental, and was catching up when Ramirez with activity when Robeisy deployed the strategy of exiting the pocket with body work.

Darn it's hard to time ending beer and starting homemade chicken fingers to inoue fights.

Should have went with nachos and pico lol much more versatile
