Same here, i know he has a kid into American football but not boxing. interesting that's he's a middleweight too.

Evander was a smaller guy for a HW so checks out. Went to the Games at 178.

Still don’t know why any former world champion would want his kid fighting when they grew up nice and they have too much pressure to live up to the dad, it just ain’t in those kids like jcc jr and Mosley jr amongst a lot of others. You need to grow up in a struggle and suffer to be a world champion.

Why go to an app that wouldn’t result in any exposure? Better to pursue deals with network or basic cable stations where fans can actually see the fights and happen upon them if they catch them on....exactly why USA Tuesday Night Fights, ABC Wide World of Sports, and ESPN Friday Night Fights were so popular....availability

They don't have a TV deal. They pursued a deal and it didn't work out. I wish Kathy the best and I want more boxing on TV. Doesn't seem to be likely with NBC, so go to DAZN.

Til recently I didnt even know he had a kid who boxed high level in the amatuers or at all honestly lol.

I think the rich kid of a legend boxer angle will be interesting to watch as always doe.

The amount of kids he got one of them had to be.

What happened with the nbc deal to make it go south? I read that it was in the works as well a while back

Lol yea the odds were good there was gonna be someone from the next gen boxing.

Evan Fields Jr. Hopefully clean. Hopefully no heart issues like his father had from the same Mexican meat Canelo ate.

Lets see if the kid's a chip off the old block. Looks wise at least, you can definitely tell who his dad is.
