Garcia gets gifted another decision?

Guy should have lost at least twice by now.

Thurman probably wins 10 rounds but loses the decision because Garcia runs good on bull**** decisions.

Kostya Tszyu was 35 & in the argument for p4p #1 (this was just when RJJ was falling off). He was coming off arguably a career performance v. Sharmba Mitchell. People were talking of him as potentially the GOAT LWW. Fight was at 02:00 to accommodate U.S TV (compare Bisping v. Henderson II which started ~ 05:00), wild atmosphere. Hatton might be the biggest ever British boxing start, as far as British following goes. Enormously popular.

While we're vaguely on the subject of Australian boxers, it looks like we can confirm Geale on the list of boxers GGG finished. I didn't see it, but he went down overnight in a 2nd round KO to a local up and comer...

Also, I'll throw this out there... Would anyone out there have any idea if I might be able to find a stream for this?

I just can't warm to Bellew at all. I've tried to like him but just can't do it. Hope he gets KO'd tonight.

Luke Campbell has looked far better tonight against Matthews.

I'll moderate that. He has looked a bit better.

he won't. flores is a local dude (for me- springfield, MO) and he isn't really bad at anything but he def isn't world class. shocked he is still fighting at a "world class" level. that being said i have a hunch bellew won't KO him and it will be a decision

Haye will not move down to crusierweight so it'll either have to be fought at a catch-weight or Bellew moves up (lol).

That was a funny post fight promotion-bit by Bellew.

Oh, and Joshua - Wlad reportedly set for Dec 10

Yes, yes, YES!

As far as bellends go in boxing ....Bellew is right up there.

Flores should be nowhere near a title challenge but Hearn is just using the Flores is mates with Haye angle to big up a complete joke fight in Bellew fighting Haye.

Its completely transparent but Hearn thinks most people are stupid anyway.

Bellew has hardly beaten anyone of note apart from Makabu and he might turn out to be not that good anyway.

There are least 6 or 7 cruiserweights that would beat the crap out of Bellew but hes shooting his mouth to get a big final pay day against Haye.

Haye cannot believe his luck really ... a nice pay day against a guy he would decapitate if he decided to move up and face him.

Hope it happens ... just to see Bellew get sparked cold.

Has Haye even fought anybody recently? I think he fought Chisora last, right?

Guy just seem to run at the mouth but he hasn't fought anybody big since that abortion against Wlad.

Hes fought a couple of bums recently since being semi-retired for over 3 years since the Chisora fight.

I think hes been fairly quiet on his return ... just putting himself in a decent position to fight again for a heavyweight belt without any risk so far.

Be good to see him with someone half decent to gauge were he is at these days ...

Would imagine Haye is somewhere between 6-15th best HW right now. Likely around bottom half of top 10 I'd guess. His range is fairly wide though bc he hasn't fought anyone in years, but he'd be a big dog vs the top few fighters in the division (Joshua, Wlad, Wilder).

Joe Smith Jr. fighting Hopkins in what is B-Hops farewell fight.

Pretty amazing to consider where Joe Smith was just 4 months ago. Knocks out Fonfara in a massive 1-round upset, now gets a shot at a legend in a HBO main event.

Sounds like Joshua v Wlad might not be happening, WBA won't sanction it.

They should fight anyways and keep all the money, **** the titles, in fact that should be the catchline of the fight.
