    Comments Thread For: What We Learned From Boxing's First Week Back

    By Corey Erdman - Although there had been a handful of boxing events globally since the de facto start of lockdown in mid-March, this past week will likely be considered the week that the sport truly returned. There had been one-off shows in Nicaragua and gym shows in South Korea already, but the sport's gaze still fixates on the United States, its television...

    When is Mike Tyson going to fight; I want to see him bite off Evander Holyfield's other ear.

      All we learned is that Arum still can't put on a good card.

            I gets the feeling that we may see a situation in which the fighters who train hard and stay in shape regardless will/may gain the upper hand against those fighters who tend to only cram their training in when they have a fight contract to fulfil.

            The intriguing match-ups for me are obviously AJ, v Fury, Beterbiev v any top 5 LHW, and so on.

            The pretenders will get separated from the bona fides!

              Somethings going to happen. Something odd, strange off the wall crazy. It has to, it boxing matches. Not talking Ward - Gatti crazy. Just something is going to go off the rails. And I hope to see it. And my guess is also that two guys are going to get in the ring and a real fight is going to break out. Every so often that always happens. And I hope that a few guys make a name for themeseves in the ring. Without the crew telling us before the fight who is the bestest, baddest fastest in the world right now. If the annoucers are watching a screen how it there view or spespective any sharper then anyone else looking at the screen ? Will all that really happen? No I doubt it but as long as we are talking about these fights.............

                SO GLAD BOXING IS REALLY BACK! I can't wait for the bigger fights, but I'm glad that the prospects are getting their feet wet again.

                    ESPN is affraid of Teddy calling fights these days he is too real. Know who replaced Teddy right? You got it Mark Kreigle. Yep I remember when MK sat down with Teddy and I thought Teddy was going to rip his head off. He is just that kind of guy. I dont always agree with Teddy but he calls it as he see's it. Yea that's the Ticket ! Bring back Teddy and his sideman Bob PaPa but only when they put up a real solid card from top to bottom and watch the numbers jump up. But what will they do with Kriegle ??? And Tesse ? Tim can stay there if he wants to make an appearance.
