Surprisingly good cards . Whyte deserved the win...no clue what right the sky guys were watching tho they acted like it was a whyte shutout after round 2 which was pretty crazy to me

Fantastic card. Makes me more annoyed that every American fignt card is some prospect v a no hoper in every single undercard fignt 95% of the time. That was fun

I had Parker winning only 3 rounds. It seemed like the head-clash really slowed him down.

Really foolish but entertaining finish by Whyte!

I could see that I just thought there were quite a few close rounds

Easter so tall. This goes the distance

After 2 Easter winning a snoozefest. Lot of hit and run from Easter. Garcia getting close but not hitting clean

Was just about to say that Easter looks great. Damn.

And just as I say that Garcia knocks him down

Can't say im happy about my 'going the distance' bet. Easter looks like he could get KO'd by a jab.

Lost my feed. Bleh.

Going by descriptions of the round, it looks like one of those fights where the scorecard will be all over if this goes the distance. I had Garcia taking over in round 3 and 4 but then lost the feed

Easter is doing way better than I expected. Like six of the rounds were pretty close to me. He is probably losing but executing his game plan way better than I expected I thought Mikey would dominate the fight

Yeah I expected Easter to get run over pretty early but was surprised in the small amount I saw.

Going into the 12th there's no chance Easter is winning this. He did well though. Gave him 1st, 2nd and 5th(i think it was). Could argue for 6th as well.
I expect 116-111 or 117-110 scores all around.

Garcia has dominated last few he def won barring knockout but I could see anywhere from like a shutout to 8-4. Any rounds given to Easter were close rounds

Garcia v Spence is such an unbelievably stupid fight I don’t understand it in the slightest. Everyone would rather see Mikey v Loma . No one thinks Mikey has a chance v Spence whereas Loma Garcia is a fantastic fight . I really hope the Spence fight doesn’t happen I can’t comprehend why Mikey keeps pushing it . When he was pushing the cotto fignt I understood he wanted to cash out v a big name ...Spence is not a big name and way bigger and better it’s dumb. Garcia is awesome but after seeing the lipinets fignt I have zero interest v Spence

Errol Spence Jr. just came to press row and said that he’s already talked to Al Haymon about fighting Mikey Garcia in December and he’s very confident it will happen.
Hopefully Robert and his dad can talk some sense into him.

Fighting Spence would be a horrible decision for Mikey. Spence is a big 147. Garcia is a small 135. It'd be Loma vs Rigo all over again.

Frank Warren and Tyson Fury have said they're "very close" to agreeing terms with Wilder for November/December.

Believe it when I see it.

Fury gonna dominate Wilder. Wilder's always relied on being the longer fighter and he won't be against Fury.

You know the heavyweight division is muck when Wilder and Fury are potentially both top 3.

To be honest, it has been like that for 15 years or so now.

Once American football became a thing, people who would have gone into boxing in pre World War II era America went into football instead. Kind of drained the talent pool at the top.

Ya, American football seems like much easier money for a similar amount of brain damage.
