    Lampley was awful tonight imo. He couldn't have been anymore on GGG's dick if they were sharing shorts.

    Same could be said about you and Canelo

    Casual fight fans rarely score in favour of a counter puncher, especially if he's backing up. I had it for GGG but it was a damn close fight.

    Fury-Parker scorecard: one draw, and Parker winning two rounds 118-110. If you watched this fight (I did...and I feel so bad), it was a tad bit closer than that.

    Boxing judging is fucked.

    De La Hoya has called out McGregor. I think this could be a fun fight and it might just have legs. If golden boy puts up the purse guarantees I could see this happening.

    Good one tonight on ESPN.

    Guillermo Rigondeaux vs. Vasyl Lomachenko.

    Been a while since this much boxing skill has shared a ring together. Two of the most decorated amateur boxers ever.

    Rigoondeaux +300
    Lomachenko -360

    I'd like to put a play on Rigondeaux here. He's got a lot more pro experience and part of me thinks he's seen something he believes that he can exploit, hence the jump in weight classes. He also has a reach advantage.

    But the other part of me thinks that he has to be absolutely dominant (or win by KO), because the close rounds are probably going to go to Lomachenko.

    He'll be giving up a lot of strength to Lomachenko, who is naturally a much bigger guy.

    Odds are probably about right considering the size advantage for Loma and the jump in weight classes for Rigo.

    I've gone back and forth on Lomachenko Inside the Distance +110 and Rigondeaux straight at +300.

    They're so, so close in skill but the size difference is major. Might just watch this one as a fan.

    Lomachenko is just too fast. He was the bigger and faster man. NoMasChenko. I don’t doubt Rigondeaux hurt his hand, and I can imagine it’s scary fighting with one hand against someone as talented as Lomachenko, but it is impressive he has made the last 4 guys quit between rounds.
    We pray for understanding as we all occasionally request back door action by accident, when we tried to call an electrician. It happens, it simply happens.

    Man, what a letdown.

    I was really expecting a decent fight. Lomachenko is forfuckingreal.

    I think he beats Mikey. Would love to see him vs Crawford after that.

    got hooked on watching a bunch of Teddy Atlas and Norman Stone vids in the last week or so. Here are a few good compilations with appearances from both, as well as Emanuel Steward and others.

    Scott Westgarth won his bout on Saturday, complained of feeling ill, and then died today.

    Reports are Wilder was up 85-84 on all three scorecards at the time of the stoppage.

    LOL for sure.

    I thought it was more like 86-82 or at best 85-83 in favor of Ortiz giving him a 10-8 in the 7th round where Wilder nearly went out.

    Good fight for sure.

    I don't think I'll ever see what some other people see in Wilder.

    To me it looks like Anthony Joshua will run right through him.

    Wilder did answer some questions tonight, though. He showed that he's tough as nails, and despite everyone saying otherwise, proved to have a very good chin.

    He's always got a punchers chance because his right hand is lethal, but at some point, he won't land the home run punch. I think Joshua stops him.

    I'd love to see Wilder knock Joshua and Fury out, for the sake of American boxing. Would be nice to have another great HW, but I don't think he's the guy.

    I’d say the fight still goes on as planned.

    Canelo is always going to have this on him, though. But GGG isn’t making near as much money fighting anyone else, so I’d be shocked if they pull from the fight.

    Boxing. 1 step forward. 3 steps back.
