Throwing my Tecate in the trash family

>>74558618
Man, that make me angry. I think Jacobs is a pretty good fighter and I kinda like him. Rosado, memeiux and Stevens were pretty obnnoxious and unlikeables

Jacobs could give a pretty decent fight actually.

>>74558479
Might still happen in November if UAE are serious about paying Pac $38M

There's also Andrade vs Culcay this weekend. Gamal Yafai is fighting one of those Georgians with a fabricated record on the undercard for some reason

As if Pirog was a good fighter at the time.

>>74559837
*wasn't

>>74559837
That wasn't a shot at Jacobs, Pirog was damn good. Jacobs held his own with him for a while and he's picked up a lot of experience since then.

Pirog has a different style than Golovkin but they both do a lot of that crazy Euro shifting stuff, be interesting to see if Jacobs learned anything from that fight that he can apply.

>>74559723
Yeah, I'm surprised no one is talking about it more. It's an important fight for both since they're both a loss away from becoming completely irrelevant

This fight is hilarious, the WBO was basically handing their belt to Jacobs by setting a fight with Pirog who was unknown but he got SLEPT.

It wasn't. GGG was getting fleeced. It was also $10M, not $15M

He also wanted nothing to do with that belt Liam had back when Demetrius had it and wants nothing to do with since Demetrius was the mandatory after tin can Liam Smith

>>74560931
He's making a lot more than the average person in the US, so he's probably fine with it.

In the end, Canelo needs Golovkin more than Golovkin needs Canelo. Doesn't matter for pride, for legacy, or money. He needs him. There is no one else he can fight that will generate him more money, who's a bigger name, or who fans want to see him fight.

>>74561821
N'Dam, Guerfi, Mendy, Soro, Duhaupas and Takam are all good active boxers, and Yoka and Oumiha are world-class prospects

>>74562235
>Mayweather needs Conor, there's no one he can fight that will generate him more money
Yet another person who thinks the b-side is the a-side.

Never.

>>74562370
Not one anon mentioned Conor, where'd you get him from?

>>74562440
Is he to fight Ward who is a cruiserweight at this point?

>>74562370
But Mayweather doesn't need Conor. Only casuals say that

why do british fighters opt to stay in their own little bubble?
are they afraid american based fighters will expose them?

>>74562731
There's more opportunities in bongland, believe it or not.
Every fight here in the US is subject to heavy politics because more money's involved and the venues are more expensive.

>>74562731
This is true of nearly every country and even the US on a regional level. Hometown fighters bring money into the local commissions which are frequently strapped for cash and it shows in the officiating.

>>74562731
Because American competition is so poor.

Why fight DaQuaeanzius Jones at a roller derby arena in Utah when you can have a local fight here and do a 5K arena easy.

>>74562731

The world class fighters don't stay here. Callum Smith is going to America to fight Anthony Dirrell. Lee Selby did a deal with Al Haymon. Eddie's taking Katie Taylor to America. If you're a young fighter who is domestic level on the way up then there's no point going to America, there is more money in Britain for you and this is where you're going to build a following.

>>74563473
Mean to>>74562370
Fuck

It always used to be as a British fighter you had to travel to America to be a truly great fighter.

In a way I think it's mutual now. To be a great fighter in the USA/North America, I think you have to come to Britain (or at least Europe) now.

Joshua won't be going to Las Vegas, just like Klitschko didn't. Those fights are happening here.

Spence, Davis, Verdejo...you gotta come here now, it's gonna start working both ways.

>>74563631
Do you people actually believe that

>>74563861
Yes, American fighters aren't shit until they fight a Brit or Eastern Euro at the moment, that's an actual test for them an not just some Mexican can who mops floors for a living.

That counts for amateur or pro.

>>74563631

Joshua probably will end up doing at least 1 fight in Las Vegas. To maximise your career you need the American PPV dollars

>>74562731
Why are Australian fighters such utter dogshit? I thought you lot fancied yourselves as hard cunts?

>>74564064
I doubt Joshua vs Wilder would shift many PPVs stateside as things stand. Fewer than 250k for sure, while it would probably come close to 1m over here

>>74563631
The NFL & NBA expansion have taken away all amazing athletic talent.

>football
>not a risk
I'd say your chances of dying earlier/potential major injury are as high in the NFL as it is in boxing.

>>74563631
What's really going to happen is...nothing. Joshua has no reason to come to the States and get jobbed by a horrible stoppage like in Wilder's last fight and Wilder has no reason to think he'll get a fair shake in the UK. We'll see them fight after one loses or gets old and wants to cash out.

Calzaghe didn't come to Vegas until he was well past his best and thinking about retirement. Roy Jones wanted no part of Michalczewski at home and the feeling was mutual. Packing your bags and going overseas in your prime just doesn't happen all that much.

>>74564558
You die in boxing, you overcome & live a short painful life in football

>>74559423

That KO was so aesthetic. On the slo-mo you can see he used 4 or 5 different feints.

lads..Kovalev deleted/blocked his instagram for a pretty long time now. What happened? Was this part of the condition for the rematch?
>Pls no more bully on social media, big strong Kovalev

>>74564584

Anthony Joshua himself wants to go to Las Vegas, I've seen him say it several times. His sponsors would like it. It might not be Wilder because Wilder's ability is below average and Joshua would bury him but I expect him to go there at some point. UK promoters (Frank Warren) have promoted in the US before.

Ricky Hatton cleared a million buys in the UK fighting at 4am UK time. Once Joshua has mainstream traction off the Klitschko fight he won't go backwards until he loses.

>>74564354
dont make fun of us. we just want to be included ;_;

>>74564584
Crawford and Wilder have fought over here already, Spence and Davis are on their way, Ward was virtually begging to fight Froch in London, Mayweather plans to expand his promotional outfit over here... This is the new home of boxing, especially in the upper weights

I'm just bullshiting here but I imagine it's easier for a poor athletic kid to get a basketball/football college scholarship now than back in the day, and that's more appealing than winning 20 fights in unglamourous shitholes before you get any attention or money

Also in America boxing seems more like an emblem of 'toughness' than just another sport as it's mostly treated in Europe. Best example was Malik Scott v Chisora when Scott was banging on about growing up in the hood in Philly and Chisora said something like "I grew up in a middle class part of London where we never locked our doors and I still fuck people up"

This might be a bit of a contrarian opinion but I think he did the right thing.

Taylor-Chavez was the boxing equivalent of Barca-PSG

>Dr. Flip Homansky, who examined Taylor after the fight, said, "Meldrick suffered a facial fracture, he was urinating pure blood, his face was grotesquely swollen...this was a kid who was truly beaten up to the face, the body, and the brain."

>>74572657
What's wrong with Canelo's shit talking? He's great at it, and he never fights like a coward. Always down to hang in the pocket. His managers may shelter him a but but that's not on him. The guy's got huge balls.

>>74573321
>What's wrong with Canelo's shit talking?
It's all bullshit. Does all that talking and then ducks GGG. Still talking shit and backpedaling away from the September fight that he supposedly wants.
What's wrong with you that I have to explain what's wrong with it? Idiot.
Stick to WWE

>>74572997

Depends on the bums fortitude but I could see him bodying a soft heavy.

All that talk about Canelo was the one who wanted to fight Lara and GBP management didn't want him take that fight.

>>74572986
Why are PPV prices in America so ridiculously high?

>>74573601
Canelo doesn't choose who he fights, he just chooses who he doesn't fight lol

>>74573752

Inflation, they have way more $$$ than we have £s or €s

>>74573726
Boxers really don't pick their fights though, that's what management, matchmakers, and promoters do. Unfortunately. I truly believe that Canelo wants the fight but is being held back by his people, who either see it as a terrible matchup for him or would like to milk him for as much as they can in case he loses.

>>74565503
Even NZ has a gold medalist.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Morgan_(boxer)

GBP is all about the money. Everyone knows this. Canelo is their golden boy so of course they're protecting him. It's how they've always operated.

>>74573999
Digits confirm.

>>74573947
GoldenBoy and Canelo need to get their lies straightened out.
One minute he chooses to fight Lara and then turn around and it's all on the management. That doesn't stop Canelo from talking though.
Didn't fight GGG in May or September last year, despite all the shit talking and he's not fighting GGG in May of this year. Still talking though.

>>74573999

Which is why I don't understand why they are getting him to jump 2 weight classes to fight Chavez Jr.

A fight that would discredit him a lot more if he lost than losing to Glolovkin would.

How likely is it that if Jacobs pulls an upset, he takes all the middleweight belts to PBC and completes his trilogy with Sergio "seriously guys I'm Mexican" Mora live on Spike TV?

>>74579984
a million to one

>>74579984
No way BJS would fight Jacobs for the last belt, a lot more money in the Canelo fight given the choice if he's looking to cash out.

How did he manage to stand on that?

>>74580210
Was only ruptured, you can just about stand on a ruptured achilles, especially with adrenaline pumping though the body but I'm sure it still hurt a lot. If it had snapped completely he literally wouldn't have been able to get up and his career would be over.

All those guys you listed would fight Canelo before GGG in a heartbeat. It's Canelo with more options here. He can fight a literal who and still put 50,000 in cowboys stadium and sell over a quarter million on PPV.

>please Eddie let me give you even more money

Cucked

>>74580284
At world level sure, but he'll 100% do the Bellew rematch when he's fit again. It was one of the biggest PPVs in British boxing history and there's a lot of interest in it being done again from the causals.

>>74573786
Don't think so mate. 1 USD is equal to 95 cent. And likewise 82 pence in £s

>>74580305
How good is Fury even? I've only seen some greatest hits against bums and that Dance Off! GotG scene reenactment with Klitchko.

>>74580318
>It was one of the biggest PPVs in British boxing history
heh

>>74580710
No reckoning with casuals lad, as you know from Mundine vs Green. They all absolutely loved the fight, even got mainstream news coverage. Not even in the sports section, almost never happens here, not for AJ or anybody else.

>>74580737
>not for AJ
That's honestly pretty suprising.

>>74578646
he the only normal one in that pub tbqh.

>>74580772
He'll get mentioned on BBC sport or whatever, he's definitely bigger than most. Haye is probably still the best known active name in the country though and they were promoting far more heavily to normies for this than they usually do via The Lad Bible and such. It's the first time I can remember where I've had my friends actively start a conversation with me about boxing and ask my opinion because they know I watch regularly.

However much of a shitfest it was I'm actually pretty glad people who don't normally watch did enjoy it. We've had a bad run of the biggest fights in this country being fucking awful so it's a nice change.

>>74580841
I enjoyed it myself, but probably because my expectations were so low that it couldn't disappoint me. I also enjoyed the fact that Bellew shut down the inevitable Haye vs Joshua match-up.

>>74580896
I also didn't pay for it so maybe that helped as well.

>>74580568
Apart from the Klitschko fight, watch him in the Chisora rematch and against Hammer. That's him at his best. To see him when he was younger and more vulnerable, watch the fights against Cunningham, Pajkic and McDermott (first fight).

>>74579734
Wtf

>>74580300
But would Canelo take the risk? Hes taking a year and a half to move to 160 and he's fucking Lineal champ.

>>74581594
You with this fucking meme you're trying to push kys

>>74581619
No meme, I truly believe that 2017 is the year of the upsets

Chavez Jr is a fucking bum

Etsubatsu looking motherfucker

>>74580772

That will change after the Klitschko fight. Wembley will take him to the next level providing he wins, that's expected to be the biggest PPV ever here. Joshua has no personality though so won't get headlines in the way Fury and Haye can by being non PC.

>>74581594

A focused Chavez has a chance against canelo.

Lets not forget that Canelo hasn't fought someone his own size in years.

Weight classes exist for a reason.

>>74582192
I imagine that Canelo will be very slow at this made up weight

>>74581594
I've seriously had a sneaking suspicion he could.

But I've kinda always liked Jr for some bizarre reason so I'm biased.

It would be funny as hell desu, I really want him to have legit success because you can tell how much his father weighs on him.

>>74582919

Feel kinda bad for Chavez Jr desu.

He pretty much got forced to box and inevitably not fill his fathers shoes.Even if he doesn't want to be like his Dad, he will always be compared to him.

He just wants to eat cereal and smoke weed in his pink undies.

Oh shit, new "Champion's League of Boxing" style tournament announced!

>>74583121
oh my goood

>>74583645
t. hearn

>>74581594

chavez jr is the most overrated boxer of this generation, literally not even top 200 in his weight class, no dedication, and riding daddy's name.

>>74584445
Watch it get derailed each year with contestants pulling out like the super six.

>>74584445
With only Schaefer and Sauerland signed up, call me sceptical that it will actually represent the best of the best. I'll get more excited when Arum or Hearn or DiBella commits some of their fighters to it

I like that the whole thing will be completed by May 2018 though. The Super Six dragged on way too long

I would guess that one of the two divisions involved will be super middleweight again, due to Sauerland's involvement. Maybe lightweight as the other?

>>74584445

Interesting. They'll have to get some big names involved for it to be a success. The super six went on too long but says they want it to be between September and May.

>>74584884
They seem to have accounted for that

>There will be a pool of 'Reserve Boxers', who will be contracted and made public. The Reserve Boxers will always be available at event the shortest notice should a Boxer have to withdraw for any reason. The Boxers on the reserve list will be Boxers who didn't quite make it in to the tournament, or, who performed well in previous rounds despite losing.

>>74584910
Their $50m budget will be stretched a bit thin. It'd be best if the tournament is populated with talented youngsters, like Ward and Dirrell back then for the Super Six

>>74583795
He will be given all the bums Al Haymon has to offer before pbc goes under

>>74583121
Nonito used to be an absolute monster

>>74584445
Pugmire is giving out some information on Twitter at the moment: https://twitter.com/latimespugmire

Sounds really promising

>>74584978
>>74585568

Says champions could be in the tournament. Would like to know if they're planning on 3 12 round fights in that time because I bet they get injury pull outs if they do

>>74585568
Cruiserweight could be one of the two divisions. That would be epic. And it would be great for Usyk's legacy

Only problem is that Tabiti is probably the only worthy American fighter, assuming Hunter gets schooled by Usyk next month

>>74585779

154 is another good division to do as there are American fighters in that divsion. Jermell Charlo, Jarrett Hurd, Demetrius Andrade, Lara, Erickson Lubin

>>74585929
Cruiser and junior middle are the two divisions Schaefer mentioned to Lugmire. Sounds good to me

Feather would be great too

I hope there's at least one British fighter in each tournament. Warren would be smart to jump on this and sign up the winner of Williams vs Smith if 154 does turn out to be one of the divisions

>>74581580
He's ruining the ring magazine belt for the #1vs#2

Beterbiev vs Barrera is off

>>74586180
For fucks sake, why?

>>74586117
How does it work with that belt? Why hasn't he stripped for moving back to 154?

>>74584828
Settle Down Saul

>>74587698
he has 18 months to defend it at 160. though by name, he is the Lineal champion until he is defeated at 160. Though something tells me golden boy owned Ring magazine will be a touch more lenient than they where with others.

>>74587561
Team barrera are still waiting on a free plot of land at their chosen cemetery

>>74585929

They should really do a 154lb tournament like showtime did with the super 6

"No."
He was a big stiff idiot who preyed on smaller men and even bigger stiffer idiots like Moorer.

>>74591270
No, but he's a nightmarish matchup for certain types of fighters. I'm not sure there's a swarmer that ever lived that could beat him.

don't forget he was also gold medalist

>>74593936
Yeah but it could've been anybody. Kirkland is shot to hell

>>74593938
Sam Peter was a walking heavy bag with a good punch. Foreman had flaws, but he was also a very good ring cutter that knew how to pick off shots from the outside and use his strength to position his opponents. He'd fucking massacre any of the current titleholders.

>>74595256
Did Foreman fight anyone bigger than him?

>>74595309
He lost a very controversial decision to Briggs in his last fight. That's the only one I know off the top of my head.

Doubt it since if it happens (it won't) it will be at a weight that favors Loma. Anything below 126 I would favor Rigo though.

Yes, it would be an awesome story considering how he lost to Pirog.

fuck off, he's an opportunistic fag

>>74596142
It'll never happen at any weight, but I still think Rigo could handle him at 130. Amagasa was absurdly big and he got the shit beaten out of him.

>>74594639
straight right hand should be a staple punch against a southpaw. try throwing it lead. also try to use angles a bunch. throw right hand to distract and come around his lead foot.

>>74595309
Lots of taller fighters, not many taller and heavier good ones though. Chuck Wepner, Jack O'Halloran, Mel Turnbow.

On boxrec Stamford Harris is listed as 6'5 235lbs to Forman's 6'3 218lbs.

Here's a video of Harris fighting 6'0 Jerry Quarry, draw your own conclusions.

It'll only work if it's in non-prestige but stacked divisions with fighters who don't make money already. Middleweights would just refuse.

Cruiserweight and Featherweight would be perfect for it. Maybe Super Flyweight too.

>>74599172
cruiseloweight hahaha

I'm hoping for middle and super middleweights with ggg, degale, saunders, canelo... and because sauerland is involved abraham or zeuge

>>74597315
Notice Oscar shitting himself in the audience?

>>74599224
Sauerlands don't have a single featherweight or super flyweight and their cruisers are all fucking shit.

Their best divisions are heavyweight (which obviously won't happen) and super middleweight, so I'd be willing to bet super middle will be one of them. How well that ends up turning out remains to be seen.

>>74599237
He just forgot to put on his pink panties that day.

Andrade vs Culcay this weekend is a Sauerland event so I'm guessing that one or both of them will be in the tournament if it's at 154, which I'm pretty convinced of at this point

>>74585929
Lubin looks so good

Here's my realistic hope for the fighters involved in the two tourneys:

>154
Andrade
Charlo
Lara
Lubin
Hurd
Soro or Vitu
Smith or Williams
Culcay

>200
Gassiev
Usyk
Briedis
Huck
Gevor
Glowacki
Tabiti
Cunningham

I'm not sure that Usyk or Lara will sign up, they might prefer to just wait and then try and fight the winner. Huck and Culcay I think will be in regardless of whether they lose their upcoming fights

Just saw a highlight video of Eubank Jr fighting a bunch of guys with glued arms.

Again, Sauerland only have 2 fighters at 154 and nobody relevant at Cruiser either. I find it very hard to believe they'd push something none of their fighters would be involved in, given the challenges involved in getting other promoters to actually agree to something where their fighters might lose.

Also I think you can safely say no world champions will be involved, since fitting in a defence in the middle of that schedule if they get to the final will be a nightmare.

Just cancelled Boxnation lads, got it with BT Sport anyway.

>>74601812
Schaefer said that he was hoping to have at least two world titlists in each weight class. Whether it will pan out or not I don't know, but they are setting their sights high and the money on offer should be more than enough to entice some top names

Schaefer has also repeatedly emphasised that the tournaments are open to anyone from any promotional outfit, including Golden Boy and Top Rank

>>74601812
Sauerland only has like five world class-ish fighters in total, and Schaefer has none. They are counting on other promoters allowing their fighters to participate. They are more like "producers" than "directors", in film terms

>>74601799
You can't abuse your body like that and just expect everything to be the same once the weight is off again. He pissed his physical prime away
