Solid card. Hearn should stack that event. Maybe even a Yafai vs Estrada/Ancajas.

What fight did you watch

Liam showed a big set of nuts but got beaten pillar to post



Is it ? This is a great undercard fight , a top 15 WW and top 15 154lber constitutes a great fight , It’s borderline decent at best / You must be happier then a pig in sh.it with the Spence / Porter undercard

Think you need to chill mate it's a good fight and so are the ones on the porter spence undercard just because it's not the best fighting the best doesn't mean it's not a good fight sort your head out and start acting like a proper boxing fan and just enjoy the sport for what it is

Decent fight here, I hope this is a big card with good fights across the board.

Trust me Mate , I’m chill but saying Vargas / Smith is a great undercard fight is a bit of a over statement , It essentially means nothing , neither are highly ranked( F.uck where boxrec has them ) . This fight is OK and there’s nothing wrong with that

It’s the same when people were saying the Canelo / Golovkin undercards were great when they were just
Lemieux bearing down O’Sullivan & Munguia / Chocolatito curb stomping a couple unknown dishwashers . That’s not a good undercard

If buddy is happy with Vargas / Smith then he must be over the moon excited about Dirrell/ Benavidez a fight where the best are fighting the best and it means something , it’s for a strap and will have Benavidez facing his first live opponet. That’s a good fight for a undercard , Barrios / Ahkmedov is a good fight , 2 unbeaten highly regarded prospects . The winner continues to climb the ladder to the top and the loser career trajectory is forever changed , Both those fights are legit

Vargas / Smith is equivalent to or maybe a baby step ahead of Molina / Lopez ( But Vargas is better ) a couple known vets who aren’t at the top throwing down and the winner of both given another opportunity to fight 1 of the best at their division. They’ll probably both be exciting and are decent that can go either way

But decent isn’t good and sure isn’t anywhere near great and real boxing fans can call a spade a spade , Hyping Up Avg doesn’t make you a real boxing fan

P.b.c.

J.V. got this

That fight can headline in the states. I wish matchroom would look to more venues in the west. What the hell is anyone going to expect from Saudi Arabia?! It's not a familliar situation for anyone. I can't belive comfortable enough for any fighter to focus on winning a world title.
