    Has there ever been a good fight on ESPN since they signed Top Rank?

    Lomachenko-Linares is the only one I can think of... but since Linares lost his next fight by first round knockout, that fight sort of lost its luster.

    That’s pretty much it, huh?

        Because the bum who was supposed to get murdered opened a cut on Fury’s face and managed to win three of twelve rounds.

        Awesome.

          Valdez fought through a broken jaw and broke Quiggs nose. Quigg came into the ring looking like 140 pounder. It was a good test to see Valdez overcome.

            Pacquiao v Horn did some monster numbers plus the best card from top to bottom of the year was Kovalev v Alvarez 2 imo

              PAC-Horn was supposed to be a mismatch and many saw it go that way.

              Kovalev-Alvarez 2 was a 120-108 x3 type win for Kovalev.

                I think more people expected Kovalev to be brutally K.Od and the main event was entertaining plus the undercard was stacked with some brutal knockouts definitely the best card of the year for me
