Boxing: All boxing discussion

That was a letdown in terms of entertainment value. Wtf was Rigo doing?

He broke his hand. Sucks because this was a fight I really wanted to see. Rigo looked shot regardless, his legs are gone and he didn't look fluid.

 

[Alex Jones]

LOMACHENKO is making the case to be the greatest of all time

He literally made the number 1 P4P fighter of the sport quit on the stool. He has made 4 straight opponents quit against him.

Let's not forget Rigo's listed age might be off by close to a decade.

Really sucks that this fight ended up this way, a younger Rigondeaux was a legit phenom who could have been a legend with a regular career.

He's a superb boxer, but at this stage of the game, the above statement is laughable in the extreme. Let's give him another twenty or thirty fights and then see.

Lomachenko is the new most hated boxer in the Mayweather fan community

 

[John Price]

Canelo Alvarez has agreed to fight Gennady Golovkin again, with no rematch clause, promoter says

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Of course, everyone saw this coming. Its why they rigged the first fight for Alvarez after he lost rather easily.

Corrupt sport.

 

[John Price]

For some reason ESPN took Teddy Atlas off their live boxing analysis

RIP moments like this

Yep.

I said the other day that I wouldn't be surprised if there is some bullshit pulled in this second Canelo/GGG fight again so that they can and will make a trilogy out of it later on.

 

[Alex Jones]

Yep.

I think Canelo will win the next fight, so no shenanigans needed.

Wilder-Ortiz tomorrow night, pretty excited to see this one.

Wilder-Ortiz tomorrow night, pretty excited to see this one.

Forgot about that. Thanks for the heads up.

 

[Alex Jones]

Forgot about that. Thanks for the heads up.

Pretty sure Wilder KO's Ortiz (possibly early), mainly interested to see how well Wilder uses the telephone pole jab to keep Ortiz outside. Think a smaller guy has a better chance against Wilder.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Yeah I'd say Wilder in 4 by KO

 

[kihei]

Got to go with Wilder but a bit gingerly. Ortiz is capable of changing the script.

Watching the Kovalev fight on HBO

 

[kihei]

Man, talk about quick strike capability, wow. Love to see Wilder/Joshua as soon as possible.

 

[Alex Jones]

holy crap I thought Wilder was done. I'm still not sure Wilder is very good, but he showed a ton of heart tonight.

 

[Alex Jones]

Judges had Wilder up, lol. The fix was in.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Kovalev gets a win in the 7th round after the fight is stopped due to Mikhalkin getting too cut up.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Despite getting schooled, Mikhalkin showed chin and spirit.

Respect to him.

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

What a shocker!!!

 

[Rocko604]

If GGG doesn't win, the clenbuterol test will be the catalyst for a 3rd fight.

 

[Killahpunk]

Anthony Joshua vs. Joseph Parker tonight. There is also another HW fight on the card Price vs. Povetkin.

 

[Alex Jones]

Parker can't win on the cards here, he needs the ko
