    Gotta agree with this. Anonymity brings ******ity.

    Secondly, bad or corrupt judging.

      Too much politikin

      Deontay Wilder’s planned May 18 heavyweight title defense against Dominic Breazeale is pegged for Showtime PPV. Top Rank offered Wilder $12.5 million, and PBC had to contend with the eight-figure payday, necessitating PPV

      Boxing’s as messed up as any boxers fan base.
      Still despise fanboys though.

        Only then will your opinion count.
        Yes. I do. I went to see nearly every Marquez fight from 2006 (I’m 33 so I couldn’t go to as much before) until his retirement and I go to nearly all of Lomachenko’s fights and I go to a lot of Crawford’s fights too. Travelled a lot and covered a lot of miles. Not just those three too I’ve gone to fights in Mexico, Puerto Rico, England, Wales, New York, Texas, Vegas and all over LA and the desert. Trinidad, Calzaghe, Rafa Marquez were three of my favorites and saw them all multiple times. Seen Estrada a grip of times, Chocolatito too. You don’t believe me so let’s bet. Money or loser leaves the site? Name your price. I’ve got photos and posters here too can vouch. Let me know.

        I used to get memorabilia too and have a lot of signed gear but I don’t get memorabilia anymore or feel the need to buy clothing to “support” them. That just sounds likes someone who doesn’t go to the fights so buys a bunch of shirts and hats to act like a fan.
