I don't think you need to go into that blame the ***s route but I can at least agree that there are 3 good title fights this Saturday yet the majority of threads are about; Wilder, Canelo/Yildirim, AJ/Fury talks, Ryan Garcia horseshit and everything else in between.
I've seen a couple small Smith Vlasov promo threads, minor talk about Teixeira Castano, and seemingly least talked about fight being Diaz Rakhimov bout.
Just the usual boxing politics essentially. These fights are for the hardcores and even moderate fans who stand by through thick and thin. -
We have 3 great fights this weekend.
Joe Smith jr- Vlasov i s a good fight, winner should face Bivol or Beterbiev.
Teixeira - Castano...a good fight in very game 154 division.
Than we have Diaz - Rakhimov..at 130. Also a good fight.
Looking forward.Comment

Why are you talking about the ***s? They didn’t do anything to you. Lol.
FYI, they’ve been showing joe smith fights on tv in preparation for this week. I do t think anyone cares about the DAZN fights.Last edited by The Big Dunn; 02-11-2021, 08:16 AM.Comment

Is Teixeira any good? I was really surprised to read when he won that title, as I remember watching Curtis Stevens destroy him very early, years earlier, where Teixera, right from the first bell, looked absolutely garbage.Comment

I can't really speak on how good he is but when he won that title from Adames it was a very close fight I recall. I don't think he is very technically sound and seems kind of frail due to his lankiness but also has that range. Can he use it effectively though? No idea. I'd have to to watch him again and make a more educated opinion.Comment

I'll have to watch it. I knew he was fighting Adames, but just assumed he would lose easily based on what I had seen of him.I can't really speak on how good he is but when he won that title from Adames it was a very close fight I recall.

I read it was a very close fight, with very close scores. Fair play to him for the win, and coming through in what was a tough fight.
I know Stevens has power, but he just looked so bad in every aspect of boxing even before losing. Like he didn't belong in a ring.
What's the guy Diaz is fighting like? Ever seen him? I've heard of his name and see he is unbeaten, but never seen him, whereas Diaz really impressed vs Farmer.Comment

No I haven't yet, but have heard good things and people calling the upset. I need to put the NHL aside for a day and watch like 5-6 fights before this weekend to decide on some picks for the league and a bit of action.I'll have to watch it.

The joe smith fight doesnt really interest me for some reason.
But yeah the diaz and teixeira fights are good. The diaz one is a toss up but I'm rooting for Teixeira but i think castano takes it. Who you got?Comment

The fuck have the ***s got to do with most folk not being that interested in boxing? Three great fights this weekend but they definitely ain't ones your casuals will have huge interest in... what you expecting? Advertising on the primetime?
FOH with that nonsense... you're a boxing fan, just enjoy the fights and try to leave your weird bigotry at home.Last edited by Citizen Koba; 02-11-2021, 09:19 AM.Comment
