Yeah, most people just don't give a **** ass about boxing. A big part is how boxers now see the sport as a mere business, which affects the matchups and the frequency of bouts....

I'm not sure Ortiz would be a smart choice for the youngster yet. Or Fundora or Madrimov or Murtazaliev for that matter. Those cats are a bit too smart for what Zayas is bringing. Zayas needs to work on a few things before stepping up. I do think there's improvement, and I like his composure, but there's...

I give Zayas a B. He generally performed well, but he should work on his inside game, which he could since he's physically strong. He should add an uppercut to his arsenal; that would have served him well with Garcia. As he got tired, his jab also disappeared, and his way of hugging Garcia was concerning....

I'm a fan of Usyk, but the folks out there who are saying he is at the present better than a Lewis or Holyfield in the all time heavyweight greats ranking are smoking some good weed. His resume isn't all that, at least not yet. I do hope he gets to fight Parker, Kabayel, and Itauma, and beats them all,...

Say what you will about Zayas, but the guy is smart and wants to challenge himself too. And he's not a boring boxer either. What's not to like? It was a good idea to hold him back after the Texeira fight tho.

His comment on the Conwell fight is spot on, but I hope it doesn't come back to...
