Do boxing fans still exist?


Some news
>Chris Eubank Jr.says he will not let Saturday's events take away his finishing instinct like it did to his father.
>Prichard Colon underwent surgery and has another one scheduled soon.
>Badou Jack gets a new opponent for April 23: Lucien Bute. Should be a good fight.
>Andre Ward bests Sullivan Barrera in Oakland. Kovalev sitting ringside.
>Broner Theopane still on despite Broner's arrest warrant. Its an Ohio only warrant. He plans to turn himself in after the fight. Keep it classy AB.
>Lucas Matthysee says he no longer desires to fight.

When is boxing going to send some of its better talent to the UFC?

I would love to see Canelo vs McGregor
>>
>>66479655
When UFC pays better.
>>
>>66479655

for what? a $50K purse?

Canelo earns more than the entire roster of a main card combined.

He also doesn't have to suck off Dana or the Fertitta's roided egos.

I can't imagine him actually being someone's dad. He would take a 5 year old suit shopping and drive his hummer into downing street to protest against war, while switching accents rapidly. would mindfuck the hell out of a kid

>>66481628
Well, he did say " son stop bashing his head him hit his body" during the fight. He has SOME dad in him..
>>
>>66481628

maybe thats why his son has a look of "I'm sick of his shit" all the time.

Tbh his accent works. Even though he was kicked out of school, I can't shake the feeling that he is super smart and well educated just because he is eloquent with his words.

honestly thats the goat style. He always wins the rounds cus he threw so many punches. Never got tired cus he never sat down on his punches. Got stoppages simply by swarming a guy even if they weren't hurt.

PPV is one of the reasons boxing's popularity has declined. The only good PPV fight this year was MiuraVargas and that was on the Undercard of CanelaCotto
>>
>>66482725
you're right, and are those fights expensive? I heard that you guys had to pay 90$ to see floyd - pac-man, but I bet that was a one off
>>
>>66482725
>PPV is one of the reasons boxing's popularity has declined.
This, early 90's was the GOAT for boxing here as it was on free-to-view TV. Eubank's fight the other day was free-to-view which was cool.
>>
>>66482801
They're usually 60$. I usually go watch it a bar desu with you. Buying PpV isn't as glorious as it sounds. It was $100 for TBEvsPacman. I'm not paying a dime for Canela vs Khan

Mikkel Kessler
Brian Nielsen

How do we produce these incredible boxing talents?
>>
Yep boxing has learn to give a little,as a boxing fan who lives near the copper box sports arena,olympic park london alot more ufc mma gets shown there.
>>
>>66482883
A bit thin on the ground"any more?"
>>
>>66482963
i think brian nielsen mustve taken the most punches of any boxer to ever live. he was awful, mind you, but he could take punches unlike anything ive ever seen. probably helps that he didnt really have anything to lose. ive heard him talk recently, i think he gets about 2% of the oxygen he used to when he breathes through his nose.

kessler was relatively good though right? if ward the fraud didnt headbutt him 5 times and ruin his career by giving him a permanent injury, he couldve been great.
>>
>>66479712
I know this is an old post, but thats not true anymore. Back in the day guys like Mike Tyson were worth 100s of millions of dollars, but right now Canelo and Mcgregor are worth the same amount. ~5mil

>"flex for daddy"

>>66481442

>>66482995

Kessler was world class no doubt. A little too textbook and robotic to defeat truly elite fighters though.
>>
>>66483050
yeah he did lack some elements. loved his spirit though. his fight against calzaghe was humiliating though, but then again calzaghe was goat. when i think back on that fight i cant remember kessler hitting him once
>>
>>66483118

It wasn't close to a humiliation, it was a great competitive fight, just that Calzaghe was just too spazzy and unorthodox for him to deal with in the end.

There needs to be another Super Six somehow. It may not have worked as a tournament but it got the best to actually each other which is the one thing boxing needs right now.
>>
>>66483181

How the fuck he managed to make super middle is a mystery, a very good athlete like calzaghe.

>>
>>66484355

I'm just glad he won a title. HBO did a special on his fight with alvarado, and when he gets the belt i almost teared up 2bh.

also calling bradley and algieri robberies is stupid. A close fight isn't a robbery. Both those fights could have gone either way depending on how what judges look for.
>>
>>66486224

I know senpai, I just wish it went Provodnikovs way, nothing against Bradley...
>>
>>66485105
You mean his eye broke and he got hit with a million low blows and still gave Danny G a tough time.

He may lack skill, but he doesn't lack heart. He was over hyped like 99% of punchers in boxing history. But not a lack of heart.
>>
>>66486554
Ruslan would have won of the first slip is ruled a knockdown. Even Bradley said he was knocked down.

Yes against Postol ,not Danny G. I believe Lucas when he says something popped and fucked up his eye and didn't just quit. He has shown in all his previous fights he wasn't a quitter. If he was he wouldn't have kept giving DannyG a tough night out with only 1 eye open.

Postol is just a bad motherfucker.

what's wrong with the ring magazine fights of the year? not one heavyweight fight since tyson - holyfield

He's a self made man and he seems like a good guy. He's obviously attracted to that classy upper class lifestyle but he's blown a lot of his money and almost went bankrupt a few years back I think.

> If Broner fails to make weight in the next two hours, then he’ll be stripped of his WBA title by the World Boxing Association. Theophane, 35, will have the chance to win the vacant WBA title, but not Broner.

If Theophane wins against Broner, he'll get the tile, and if Broner wins against Theophane, he will keep his title, so what's the point of taking his title away right now? It doesn't make a difference

Nope.
>>
why is there a 'regular' WBA title? what does that mean?
>>
>>66503706
WBA can have a regular and super champion for each division. Super champion is someone who has defended the WBA belt 5 times or also holds a belt from another sanctioning body. What this means is that the super champion only has to have a mandatory fight every 18 months. If there's a super champion then the next 2 top available contenders fight for the regular belt. It's basically a bit of a scam to get more money.

He does seem to care about his son more than other father son duos like the Guerreros. And he had a great career himself.
