Early returns are very promising for Thurman Garcia. 2.7My views and those numbers typically increase as they're tabulated a few days foster fight.

Enjoy our aging results of late for the sweet science.

Didn't Wilder fight do like 2.1 on FOX?

Thought Thurman/Garcia could do a little better than 2.7 if that was the case.

Bellew would get mauled by Wilder. Bellew had trouble getting rid of a rusty, one-legged fighter. The guy should either fight Haye again or drop back to CW.

Wouldn't be surprised to see the final number end up around 3.5 mil. Battling a (meh) UFC card, a Duke/UNC game, and a few NBA games, that's not a bad draw.

I've put together a highlights package from the O2 circus tent for anyone that missed it.

Eddie Hearn's reaction is pure gold ... that should somehow be turned into a avatar.

Tyson Fury's just announced he's coming back May 13th. He's in such bad shape though I can only see him fighting a bum.


------------------
In regards to Haye Bellew apparently it broke modern day box office records. Haye made a minimum of £4.8m.

I am going to have to pretend that you are joking as I can't cope with this being true.

Fury looks like a taller version of Tony Soprano.

He's back soon by the looks of it....not sure if this means he can't fight in the UK?

I really hope Manny is -250 or less, this will be on the level of Manny -440 vs Rios.
Not happening

Seems like those two could still fight. Good fight for both of them.

Maybe in Brooklyn or London.

fwiw William Hill had -227/+188 according to bestfightodds.com

ok that sounds a little more robust than 2.7

good to see, thought the production value was really good as well.

I liked Leonard talking both of them up and the significance of the fight during the telecast, unlike some other sports where the former players just **** on the current guys.

In that case a rematch could happen, sounds like Berto-Porter winner will be Thurman mandatory but who knows how that will play out, they're all Haymon guys so it'll be figured out in house.

LOL Khan.

Watching Lemieux-Stevens.

Pretty exciting through 1 round.

lemieux looks like he will only last about 5 rounds

at this rate he'll knock him out by then though

Stevens looked like he was in good shape through 2 rounds and 1 punch KO cold by Lemieux.
