Boxing is a WAY better sport but the fragmentation is terrible
horrible belts, horrible matchups
Hudson Hernandez
that's not the only advantage. the crazy amount of variables also makes the UFC so much more exciting at the high levels. best-vs-best matchups rarely leave the +/- 250-300 range for odds.
Nathaniel Lewis
Imagine paying 70$ for this
Jaxson Russell
Not it shouldn't. It was accidental. Khan could've taken 5 minutes but he quit. Unless he shows evidence that his testicle burst or some shit, then he's a bitch.
Christian Green
this it was dead after that "Mr Cancer" interview bob did a few months ago desu
Can boxing get any worse this week? Piss poor card on sky that sucked, Miller found to be an absolute roid monster and now Crawford/Khan is stopped by Khan getting whacked low on his todger.
Asher Torres
We need HBO
Michael Reyes
I'm sure it did at least 150K with all the ESPN promotion. No way it cracks 300K.
John Nelson
*hits you in the ballsack for a TKO victory* I'm the best fighter in the world
Xavier Wilson
Was the undercard any good?
Doubt it, the undercards on PPV are typically trash nowdays
Bentley Brown
Mayweather thought so too and Ward whined liked a little bitch along with the rest of them about not blindly backing the negro. Just like mexicans and roidnelo
Joshua Diaz
What does /box/ generally do after boxing cards? Shitpost til you fall asleep or watch other sports?

Isaiah Turner
yeah exactly. honestly I love both sports, but nothing gets my heart pumping like high-level, lethal MMA. there's just too many ways for a finish to come out of nowhere. it's so fucking based.
but don't get me wrong, watching guys like Usyk, Crawford, Canelo, Loma, and so on do their thing is pure art. Fury/Wilder was bonkers.
Ian Reed
No it was horrible
Bentley Adams
Not long. It definitely did. Amir "1 ball" Khan forever more.
Adrian Lewis
AMEN
Bud was honestly getting lit up
Surprised Khan's punches landed, he's supposed to be good until that nut ward tactic saved him
I think you're right. Khan knew he was outmatched and found a way out.
Lincoln Diaz
hater you know deep inside he is a threat
John Kelly
The thing that is making me most upset about boxing right now are the commentators and network's.
It's getting beyond a joke now at his shamelessly biased all these network's are. Fox, ESPN and Sky Sports commentary are an utter embarrassment to this sport. What's worse is these godawful promos they show and the constant arse licking leading up to the fight of a certain promoter (Hearn, Arum or Haymons) fighter. Then they make a mockery of the sport by having such blatant bias towards that promoters fighter and ignoring everything the opponent does.
The ONLY network you can rely on for neutral commentating is BT Sport. Fish eyes might be a slimy bastard but he stays away from BT. They are also the only ones doing fair pre fight documentaries.
This is a real crisis is boxing that's going unnoticed. It's making it very difficult to enjoy these fights regardless of who is fighting.
Blake Kelly
i'm not going to lie, I don't like the guy but I stand by my statements
Juan Green
Crawford is a Top Rank aka ESPN fighter. They report their agenda. I'm a big Crawford fan btw, but this is mainstream media today.
Mason Wood
Its not unnoticed

These were the fights for the past 2 months.

They are all married to a certain promoter. It's worse than ever. And the broadcast teams are worse than ever as well in pure talent.
Grayson Cox

Commentary was dogshit, four hours of slurping overhyped can crushers
Kayden Martin
Boxing could have been saved if the big3 werent ducking each other. The lower weights in boxing are just utterly boring. Main problem with boxing is that every top contender in every weightclass is ducking one another.
Owen Moore
who is Shields vs Hammer?
Lucas Martinez
Waiting for a webm of the cockshot before bed
Jose Allen
That trap is 100% correct. get some glasses nigger.
Calzaghe was tough as fuck. I think pretty highly of him even though most of his opposition was terrible
Brody Hernandez
golovkin didn't duck anyone (that i remember anyway) and he didn't get the respect he deserved. what's the point if there's a massive possibility you can get robbed. just fight bums and make millions.
Should middle easterners and pakis quit the sport?
Bentley Richardson
He's fucking loaded mate, if modern day sports has taught me anything it's that anyone with money can get any woman they want
Look at all the football niggers
Carson Edwards
Goff certainly wasn’t up to the challenge of a billy b defense with no goff to lighten his load. But rams are far from shit
Matthew Martinez
After tonight, they should be banned.
William Lewis
Why does everyone hate Khan? He's a fun, skilled boxer who's never shied away from a challenge. Came back from getting iced by Canelo to fight arguably the #1 p4p guy in the entire sport. Got knocked down in the first, but didn't give up and have us about 6 rounds of a very fun scrap, proving his chin isn't gone and that he's got mettle.
Sure, he's not the brightest guy, but he does seem to be a nice lad and family man on top of being a great athlete. I just don't get why /box/ is always so miserable about him.
Caleb Rodriguez
Imagine thinking you could take a full force punch to the balls by one of the best boxers in the world. This is Yea Forums

He literally just quit before the halfway mark.
Nathan Torres
you're dealing with a bunch of mentally ill NEETs. don't give the bullshit much thought
Matthew Fisher
He used to be. Tonight he basically quit like Victor Ortiz.
Noah Thompson
I love khan. Not the best in the biz but absolutely a courageous fighter. All heart no quit. im sad it had to end like that tonight
Carson Stewart
I could definitely take a full force shot to my thigh while wearing a foul protector.
Alexander Bennett
Khan quit. Anyone who thinks Crawford should be dq'd is a dum dum
He got hit in the hip flexor and could have taken the full 5 minutes to recover. Chose to quit.
Elijah Cooper
meh, his nuts got destroyed and the referee was being a fucking prick and pressuring him instead of giving him his 5 minutes. He was never going to win that fight but he was making it interesting and battling through constant adversity. Agreed, user. It's sad how hateful the spergs on here are.
Luke Hill

he literally said he started feeling nauseous with a pain in his stomach and his legs stiffened up as a result. you could see the pain the man was in straight away when the ref called the time out.
Sebastian Hernandez
Bud was getting hit FLUSHED
Khan was going, Bud can't keep up with speed
Ward tactic
Jacob Ross
He was nauseous before the fight as well. Maybe this isn't his thing anymore.
Nicholas Sanchez
Americans are the kings of the low blow, another biased ref,l, it's appalling how the Americans have ruined boxing with their cheating and ducking
>Best fights of 2018 were Canelo vs Golovkin and Lomachenko vs Linares >All Slavs and Mexicans >biggest bum division is the heavyweight division >no relevant Slavs or Mexicans in that entire division
Watched Spence Garcia in a theater and pirates crawford khan. So $20 for me.
Anthony Rogers
Yakub
Adrian Brown
The ref should’ve just given Khan the full five minutes, but his corner called it so whatever. Crawford is gonna fight that Lithuanian next anyway because Arum basically took public childish shots at Haymon.
Daniel Foster
Are you dumb? What do you think happens when you hit the cup like that? It crushed his fucking balls mate
Easton Phillips
Mayweather is fighting obscure Japs or UFC hype jobs because of VADA. You seen what Miller's status is now.

This. Somebody here never stepped into a ring. That fucking hurts like hell, completely freeze your legs
Jace Nelson
>Was the undercard any good? >Lopez/Tatli was solid Tatli hugged Lopez at the end of the round, smiled at him with admiration, came out for the next round, Lopez threw a body shot that hit Tatli on the hip, Tatli took a knee and stayed down. Fixed.

Adam Stewart
>t. Obese 32 year old that's never been in a fight
Cameron Smith
In that post fight presser, when Khan continued to say he hasn't seen the video yet. Somebody needed to scream, 'It's on Pornhub', then it would've been all worth it.
Anthony Miller
Crawford couldnt even beat Khan without a dick punch
Ryder Watson
I don't think it was fixed. Tatli just didn't want to get knocked out.
Joseph Martin
Man, a lot of people are talking shit and going with this thigh bullshit. He was clearly caught on the bollocks, and I fully believe him when he says he could feel it getting worse. Of course I think he used it as a get out of jail card but the people acting like it wasn't a low blow are fucking clueless
Eli Campbell
Not David Price
Noah Collins
>Do low blow in boxing You win the fight >Do a low blow in MMA You lose the fight This is why your sport is dying
Isaac Hernandez
Why wouldn't he take the 5 minutes to recover though?
Henry Diaz
>Hurt the chinniest man in boxing in the very first round
>can't put him away
P4P #1 btw... He's gonna get beat when he fights guys his size. It's so fucking blatantly obvious too which is making me wonder why people have him over canelo or Loma as #1
Hudson Russell
That's what I just said in my post, that he used it to get out of the fight without too much embarrassment. But to act like it wasn't a low blow is dumb, and that seems to be what most people are going with
Hunter Martin
He could have taken another 3 minutes, he chose to quit. When he went back to the corner after 5 rounds he was telling Virgil Hunter he had an injury and he said "It's hurting? You got to ignore it ok" dropped in the first round and outclassed, he didn't want the inevitable KO
Ryan Cruz
>Khan gets his marriage destroyed by a black man >Now his balls are destroyed by a black man Potery
Parker Peterson
>The ONLY network you can rely on for neutral commentating is BT Sport. Fish eyes might be a slimy bastard but he stays away from BT.
Khan and Jeff Horn were his size. Thurman, Porter, Pacquiao, Garcia wouldn't beat him
Jack Williams
Yeah obviously his fighter fight on BT you fucking retard but there are not biased towards Franks fighters.
Adrian Nelson
He meant Frank Warren doesn't interfere with BT's commentary and try to set a narrative
Zachary Ramirez
Hope Khan retires now. Miserable last night and no interest in him fighting Brook, Brook needs to be forced to take a well matched fight that has credibility instead of clinging on. Sat on his hands when he could have got a fight with Jessie Vargas in
Jason Phillips
Where's Joe Joyce poster? He's been made an offer by Queensberry for Dubois and ducked it. Sam Jones talks too much
Parker Anderson
Slimeball Jew has done more for the sport than most other fucks and than you'll do in your entire life.
Camden Lopez
Khan is at the end of his career and looks like a shell of himself and horn is shit..
He's not fought an elite guy his size. And when he does i think you will be surprised
Angel Bailey
Both of their careers are finished, and quite frankly, I wouldn't care if both retired tomorrow
Grayson Martinez
Redpill me on Dillian whyte's next opponent Oscar Rivas talk to me /box/ who the fuck is he ? Another can?
Jordan Garcia
She definitely doesn't feel anything when Khan sticks that tootsie roll in her
Luke Long
Andy Ruiz vs Joshua for June 1st!
US American Mexican heritage So will bring in the crowds Already in training and drug tested, can just add another 6 weeks to it Dimitrenko last night was a sparring session Didn't need the help of the ref to beat Parker Technically still undefeated Says he is ready and wants it
I'm sorry, on the what? Did you mean to say Barracks? Or buttox? Is English your first language?
Caleb Barnes
would love to see him fight dillian whyte, think he'd win with fair judging
Grayson Reyes
No, it's a solid opponent when his main goal is to wait out the WBC for a title shot. Tilted in his favour and not the same threat on paper as Povetkin and Ortiz but still credible with real risk involved
Leo Cox
I predicted Khan was going to lose. Ask me anything
Ian Ross
Eddie Hearn already ruled him out, said he doesn't look the part for British audience
Eli Davis
Bollocks are testicles
Robert Myers
It's going to be Hunter
Matthew Rogers
The Brook fight is still on the table after Khan's hand heals. He didn't get knocked out, so he won't have to take extra time off
Joseph Kelly
I see thanks. I love Dillian but he's never going to beat Wilder. I think Dillian Should just wait it out for a shot at Joshua in the UK, more money and a greater chance at success
Mason Allen
heavyweight more like Obese
Connor Perry
where's the Crawford posting nigger NOW huh
Christian Edwards
If we don't hear anything about a groin injury from Khan in the coming days, then it's clear as day that he quit. You don't just land one low blow in a fight you're dominating and all of a sudden the win is invalidated because the guy decides he doesn't want to fight anymore.
Carson Peterson
Dave Allen vs Lucas Browne
Adam Long
best part of last night was slagging off josh kelly to be honest
Jaxon Barnes
Crawford doesnt beat a single elite guy at 147
Benjamin Gonzalez
Any other predictions you can share with us Nostradamus?
David Jackson
mmgay has no meme fighters to attract casuals left. your sport is cooked, FAGGOT
Anthony Diaz
Sigh it really is such a sorry state that espn/Crawford is in right now. If I were arum I'd just start throwing money around at all of PBC's fighters and also stock hoarding all newcomers in the hopes of getting a couple diamonds
Crawford is super competitive and motivated whenever he's in the ring or in training but he just doesn't have intensity or desire when it comes to matchmaking. If Crawford just said he wouldn't fight if his next fight wasn't with Spence I guarantee Bob could make the fight
Justin Cruz
can dave possiby beat washed up chisora?
Anthony Peterson
why the fuck would he do that lmao
Ethan Davis
He'd have to understand his leverage and see that his legacy depends on getting Spence in the ring with him. I'm not sure he comprehends either
Daniel Hall
why not just feed lomachunko to crawford?
Christopher Stewart
He has no leverage, he isn’t a big draw and Haymon doesn’t want to make the fight
James Rogers
Exactly, that's why Bob calling out al haymon was pointless. Crawford needs to use his leverage as THE name in bobs stable and make Bob make concessions to Haymon
Ethan Jackson
Israel Adesanya is one big fucking meme and it's pretty spicy
Owen Clark
The fighters that are 28-33 won’t leave and they’re not the only ones in the market, a lot of young fighters have and will go to DAZN
Nathan Anderson
>Bob calling out al haymon was pointless He did it to piss off the ldbc
Ayden White
Bob is prepared to make concessions, he already offered them Spence vs Crawford in exchange for Lomachenko vs Garcia. Haymon is not interested in working with anyone, he has a monopoly on welterweights and will wait 2 to 3 years
Andrew Jackson
I have a feeling that shot made him shit his pants.
Caleb James
I think he legit shit himself
John Russell
checked
Isaiah Jenkins
This isn't going to be an exchange. If the fight happens it happens on haymons platform.
Michael Ortiz
Yeah but it’s not enough to concede that. Porter, Thurman, Danny Garcia will all be ahead of him
Brody Howard
>Khan's never been in a bad fight innit, make sure you watch Where are these people today?
Austin Powell
Spence is fighting Porter next, and Thurman and Pac fighting each other too. There's going to be a lot less people in front of him soon
It was basically a fixed fight, Khan decided 3 rounds in it was over and started telling Hunter he had hurt his hand so he had a reason to end it. Rather than go out on his shield he tried to contrive an excuse so he can still get paid to fight Brook. $5 million and Bob didn’t even get a highlight KO
I really liked that part of McGregor-Khabib where due to the rules McGregor wasn't allowed to hit Khabib because he was being grabbed, despite Khabib putting himself in a situation to be hit. I sure do love that """real fighting""".
More than half the people here says it's the balls.
William Wood
>"fight was just getting interesting" >losing every round
Kayden Young
That's because more than half of /box/ is blind
Ryder James
can you make a similar post but talking about Fury? i like this meme
Charles Rodriguez
His corner stopped the fight. It was established before the TKO decision was even official.
Ian Sanchez
reminder that amir khan still hasn't been outboxed to this day
Brayden Rodriguez
how much did kovalev drink before he stopped?
Ian Reyes
With your hands, sure, but you're talking about """"real fighting"""" and yet the UFC doesn't even allow you to knee a guy who holding you to the ground because "That would be unfair and give non-wrestlers too many options!" MMA is even more retarded than Boxing because its rules are designed to benefit certain types of fighting and discourage others, prolly because they want fools like you to think wrestling is superior in a "real fight".
>punches opponent on the balls "accidentally" >Wins via TKO Don't they wear cups? What a shit "sport" you have /box/. That was Mandrama tier.
Bentley Diaz
Wasn't Spence vs Pacroids a done deal right now?
Jason Lee
Can you tell me why all you MMAnlets were watching this fight? I normally expect you guys for Lomachenko fights, but Crawford-Khan? What possesses you to watch that?
I know that MMAnlets have an interest in a Boxing match cuz my friend will always ask me for a stream when all of you do.
Lincoln Young
No, Spence will "clean his yard" then move up saying he can't make weight anymore.
Easton Davis
Crawford should have been DQ'd. Why didn't they use some sort of video replay to look over that low blow instead of asking Khan's corner to stop the fight?
Cooper Perry
>Crawford should have been DQ'd One accidental low blow doesn't result in a DQ. Also they didn't ask Khan's corner if they wanted to stop the fight. Khan's trainer asked Khan if he wanted to stop and he said yes.
Caleb Robinson
No, Spence will be the first man to stop Shawn Porter in the fall.
Nathaniel Richardson
he won at least 2 rounds khan, the last 2 rounds
crawford couldnt even take out a b class fighter at best lmfao
Evan Flores
Imagine watching that fight and thinking Khan even stood a chance just because he could have won a couple rounds. Crawford was setting him up and out classing him in almost every regard. Khan just threw more punches that he would eventually get countered and floored for.
this is what professionalism looks like. you may not like it, but its true
Joshua Watson
The punch was low. It doesn’t warrant an automatic DQ. Khan’s corner called it before taking the full five minute rest. TKO is the right call. Amazing that Khan still gets multi million dollar fights.
Blake Hernandez
The rule that prevents people from hitting each other with the knees while on the ground was not put in place to protect the guy on top (aka the wrestler), it was put in place to protect the guy on bottom: youtube.com/watch?v=VdpegokRf1Y
If knees were allowed on the ground in MMA, wrestlers like Khabib would be the biggest finishers in the sport.
Brandon Smith
Evidently it is, since people bitched about McGregor "BrEaKiNg OuR rUlEz" when he kneed the goatfucking wrestler who had him in a hold.
Kevin Bell
does anyone feel extremely hollow after last night? It was such a pointless endeavor. There was absolutely no point to that fight. You could see it on Khan's face he was nervous and the minute he could find a way out of it he did. It had the feel of a cold business deal and then it ended. I can't imagine how anyone who paid for it feels but that was just nothing. It feels like nothing.
Parker Gomez
Eh, It showed how slick Crawford can be. His head movement was very good at points in that fight. And countering through Khan's speed was good to see too.
James Anderson
No you coping faggots. If knees on the ground and kicks on the ground were allowed, wrestlers would be fucked. Everytime a wrestler like Khabib got on his back like a bitch, guys like Conor could just drop a big, fat, juicy knee or foot on him and put him out.
If knees were allowed in McGregor-Khabib for example, all that holding wouldn't have been a thing, Khabib would've been forced to let go. Instead Conor had to step kneeing because of the rules, allowing Khabib to do his hugging bullshit. You can't punish wrestlers who fuck up and put themselves in a bad position though, since the rules simply don't allow it.
I barely watched it. Bomac was on the money when he said Khan has lost most of his speed. I remember being so taken aback when I would first watch Khan fight and how lightning quick his hands were, but last night his speed was just "good", but not excellent like it used to be.
He needs to retire, his generation of fighters need to finally hang it up and call it a day, they can't compete at the elite level anymore.
Mason Mitchell
I think that's the other part affecting me. I was never a Khan fan as such, but I guess its kind of sad seeing the lifespan of a boxing career end before your eyes like this. Something tragic about the passage of time in boxing years.
Parker Richardson
you could see from the first round that dave allen would beat big daddy browne, I don't know what fight you guys saw
Carson Sullivan
Khan is a fucking disgrace. The guy lacks heart and is now posting screenshots of the low blow, saying he has been pissing blood.
why the harsh tone tho. it was technically low. we don't know how it affected him. and besides, khan's never lacked heart. he's earned the benefit of the doubt at least once
Brody Johnson
If it affected him so bad he would not have been standing.. Don't make excuses for him, we all saw a guy who wanted a way out.
Christian Rivera
Brown isn't very good but he looks like he's got that retarded brute strength.
Connor Davis
I think he just knew it was his time to go. That's what they mean by getting old over night. You could just see he didn't have the spark anymore.
Kayden Roberts
As much as I like to shit on Khan, he's usually been winning before he got stopped or knocked out. He's never been dominated from beginning to end before like he was last night.
Carson Miller
I think you're right. The trouble is he'll keep fighting and end up damaging himself.
>Everytime a wrestler like Khabib got on his back You have no clue how MMA works. Wrestlers are not BJJ niggers, they don't flop on their backs, they take you down and get on top of you, establishing top control and keeping you down, after which they would be able to knee you in the head until you're dead.
You really have no clue how actual fighting works, stick to pillow fencing.
>"Y-y-you don't know what you're talking about" Khabib was on his back the entire time like a slut when McGregor was fighting him, explain that, incel.
The part of the fight UFCfags were bitching about how Conor hit Khabib with an illegal knee.
Daniel Barnes
conor was on his back in that situation you big dum dum
Zachary Garcia
Even gayer that he's not allowed to knee Khabib when it's the gay-ass wrestler who put himself in that situation. That's what I mean by rules that are clearly there to make wrestling and similar styles, more feasible in the fight. When in reality Conor could have just kneed the shit out of that boy and gotten out of his sissy-little hold.
Jaxson Torres
why are you arguing about mmgay in a boxing thread just watch whichever sport you want you fucking whiny FAGGOTS
Nathan Jones
I had to double check that this wasn't from the Deluded Khan account.
Asher Sanchez
are you stupid? how is knees to the ground anti-wrestling? 99% of the time the wrestler is on top and to throw knees effectively you have to be on top. do you have no idea how leverage and gravity works?
really doubting you're serious you can't be this stupid honestly
Luke Ortiz
listen up homo: Khabib was in side control at that time. If you allowed knees to the head of a grounded opponent, then Khabib would have caused given Mcgregor internal bleeding in his skull.
Christian Cook
you're arguing with a troll. even on Yea Forums, no one is that retarded.
Lincoln Turner
Always knew the toothpaste user was homo
Adam Lee
I don't think there's been enough focus on how horrible the referee reaction to the low blow
I seen good ref's have a calm response and say stuff like "Okay, that was a low blow, You got 5 minutes to regroup, take as much time of the 5 minutes you need"
Instead this ref was right away asking "Do you want to continue, can you continue, do you want to stop" It seemed like he was pressuring Kahn to make a decision on the spot
I still think Kahn is looking for a way out, but the ref could have been more controlling of the situation and slowly explain to Kahn his options.
Luke Sanchez
if knees aren't anti-wrestling then why are they banned in wrestling hmm?
Alexander Sanders
Hey dracula, tell us why u think sonny liston's so good even tho he looks like molasses in january
Wyatt Cooper
liston's dead and he could still knock you out lololo
Caleb Jackson
>First of all, that wasn’t a low blow Fucking kek.
Crawford is delusional. I’m having flashbacks to the Ward-Kovalev fight now. I don’t understand how they can be so proud off of winning from blatant low blows and then pretend they just didn’t happen.
Justin Collins
Sonny TBE Liston starches any HW in history
Nicholas Collins
because they are surrounded by ass kissers in their team and in the press
Hudson Evans
Clearly they are anti-wrestling because you babies were crying when McGregor was kneeing Khabib when Khabib was trying to wrestle him.
Khabib wouldn't have because he would have been unconscious long before then had the rules not prevented Conor from bashing in his skull the moment he got held.
The rules in your sport are carefully selected to give wrestlers an advantage. There's no reason knees and kicks to them while on the ground shouldn't be allowed, and you try and talk about arbitrary rules in Boxing, LMAO. Face it, your little "sport" isn't real fighting.

khan vs crawford is like when you don't want to cum but end up cumming a shitty orgasm
Julian Green
This is literally one of the worst possible outcomes for the ppv. The audience booed for 10 minutes straight.
James Scott
Wtf did I just watch
Gavin Peterson
khan saw his way out and he took it. What a wimp. He says he would have preferred to get knocked out, but if he didn't sense he would be sparked soon, why didn't he just take the five minutes for a low blow he could already stand up from? Shameful for the fans and for the sport desu, considering he still had a chance to hand bud the L on the scorecards.
Josiah Rodriguez

Nicholas Martinez
That is an extremely apt description of what I felt last night.
David Diaz
>here you see the native Omaha hoodrats fighting over a male. The females are much larger than the males making them easy to distinguish
Lucas Martinez
Honestly he cucked crawford and arum more this way. No doubt half the reason khan was chosen was because they wanted a spectacular ko on ppv to put on sports center. Now the only highlight they have is crawford lobbing a nutshot at khan.
They don't even have anyone else for crawford to face. No one good at least.
Caleb Cook
He mentally quit several rounds before and made a decision to keep another fight open. He may have thought about it before the fight that if it gets hairy I need to lose in a certain way. Can't blame matchmakers for that though, it's like Gashi he was booked against Chisora because he'd shown a willingness to fight against Takam then decided to have the worst fight possible
Landon Howard
I ain't never gonna watch a Khan fight again.
>he's never been outboxed! >never been in a shit fight! >he has great heart!
Everything he had going for him is now gone. His chin isn't even funny anymore. Fuck this paki. Loma took over 50 blatant ballshots with 0 recovery time, Kovalev took like 15, this paki can't take a single one with 5 minutes to recover?
Jeremiah Morgan
is it allowed to use 12 oz gloves for sparring in your gym? i've heard gyms in the usa don't let fighters spar with 12 oz gloves and below. why is that? here it's nothing unusual to see people spar without headgear and with 12 oz gloves youtube.com/watch?v=BhhTf7BB0zA
Joseph Jenkins
PRIDE had strikes to head of grounded opponent as do many promotions. You're talking about UFC, not MMA as a sport.
Blake Reyes
People need to give Amir a break. He is married to a fucking psycho "woman" who has mutilated her own face. He has two ugly as fuck daughters (what else do you expect, their dad is Amir Khan) He has no chin. He just needed some quick cash and it's not his fault Crawford can't follow the rules.
A little hyperbolic honestly. Its not like he got beat by a journeyman. He took a fight against someone too far above his level. I would still be interested to see him in fights against broner and even Kell Brook still. All these guys have deteriorated
I wouldn't mind them as chief support fights but he wants main event money
Gabriel Cruz

He can still make main event money fighting those guys, maybe not ppv though it could still happen for khan-brook. No joke Broner might even be more popular now after all the coverage he's gotten this year.
David White
If Haymon wants to pay him $1.5 million for Broner on a regular FOX or Showtime event and he'll take it then fine but I don't want them angling for a PPV after that, he's had about 6 chances to fight Brook. He'll still be hoping for the bigger money
Levi Bennett
What did Bob Arum mean by this? Can someone explain
He can be paid that much on fox or Showtime. Garcia got a reported $1 million fighting Granada and you know he got more under the table. Broner is magnitudes more popular than DSG. And man people are going to buy a brook khan ppv.
Levi Murphy
Jesus what a genetic abomination.
Kevin Jones
>mfw seeing /box/ seethe at Crawford winning because Virgil Hunter is an idiot
It's fun seeing the starved guys fighting each other. Besides, super welter are all middleweights too scared to move up
Jackson Cox
>Orthodox That's based tho
Jeremiah Cruz
>white guys >kike what did he mean by this?
Wyatt Ward
He's utterly retarded. Why do people pretend he's any good at all?
Jace Johnson
I know Rios's been missing weight a lot lately, but holy fuck, he's really letting himself go.
Brandon Perry
They ritually suck baby dicks.
Cameron Gonzalez
Why is Hunter an idiot? He knew Khan wanted out since he was complaining about his arm. Low blow would have been ruled as accidental and been a technical decision to Crawford
Ryan Jackson
He also said this >“I promise you that this fight Saturday night between the champion Terence Crawford and the challenger Amir Khan will be one of those fights, and people years from now, long after I’m gone, will remember this fight as a classic fight and they’ll relive it and tell what happened to their children and grandchildren.”
Arum senses how close the end is for top rank. No way did this fight sell more than 150K-200K tops. Sold under UFC ppv numbers for sure.
He had to make this a ppv not because he knew it would make money but because he's overpaying Crawford and Fury to stay with top Rank. He has no fighters of his own that can become stars and ESPN didn't even care enough to promote it.
Brandon Nelson
>when it comes to sex, I'm similar to the thrilla, in manila I never understood this line
Christopher Robinson
I've the purses for Crawford and Khan were $5.5M and $5M respectively. No way they're going to break even unless they sell 200K+.
Luke Foster
Dying of heat exhaustion, common experience for someone as big as Biggie Smalls
Anthony Long
Top rank and crawford shills are ignoring it but this was a failure on almost every front for top rank. Everyone looked bad except for Lopez and he won't even fight lomachenko now. Stevenson put on a terrible fight and was booed by what should be his own home crowd.
They spent just as much time talking about spence and haymon than they did about crawford at the end. The post fight for spence garcia was all about spence and they even got an image of pacquiao being afraid to challenge him. Top Rank might be finished as a major promoter within a year or two.
Thomas Thomas
he's not German. He's either a Turk or a Volgafag.
>peeing bloog my sides. he definitely understands human physiology.
Asher Bailey
I think he drew against Parker, he lacks power but is relentless, he would give AJ some problems
Leonard vs Duran II is a thing of beauty. The more I watch the more I appreciate the brilliance and speed of Leonard's footwork, the ability and nimbleness of it
Cameron Morris
>it's another brit doesn't understand how ticket sales work in the US I even think that it won't sell well but posting a week before is of course quite ignorant
Nope, sales are well below even their expectations for right now
Bentley Martin
you don't what the fuck you're talking about >tee hee im so smart because of my contrarian opinion
Connor Lopez
Duran, Tyson fun to watch but honestly speaking both overhyped and mediocre
Brandon Jackson
lol
Juan Wright
HOME TRUTHS ABOUT DURAN INCOMING! >Never beat an atg at lightweight, Esteban De Jesus and Ken Buchanan were not truly elite-ELITE fighters. >Beat Leonard not due to excellent boxing but as a consequence of Leonard deciding to fight Duran's game, and it was actually a very close fight which Leonard could have won on another night. It was a legitimate victory and Duran beat him mentally but it's not the spectacular domination many have called it >Got truly embarrassed in the rematch, and his weight issues do not adequately explain the extent to which Leonard's lateral movement eluded him even in the first round >HOTTEST TAKE INCOMING: Duran wasn't that fucking small, you would think the man was a midget that rose from minimumweight to heavyweight with the way people suck his cock off over going up weight classes. He was 5ft 7, Mayweather is 5ft 7 (though he pretends he's 5ft 8) and Pacquiao is 5ft 5.5, Both are more impressive and both actually came from lower weight classes to do better at Welter, his escapades at middleweight don't count for much because he didn't beat an atg fighter, though again people seem to glorify him because he gave Hagler a competitive fight, which is true, but does it really warrant him somehow being in the p4p top 5 EVER? No it fucking doesn't. Don't get me started on light heavy. >Duran's inside fighting wasn't that great, if it was then it would have travelled well with him up the weight classes. At middleweight against the likes of Hagler he had to fight at mid range because his style didn't work due to him being out muscled. Mayweather's inside fighting is actually better because it worked all the way up to light middleweight (i.e. against Canelo- admittedly a bit green at the time of that fight but still a naturally heavy man) despite him being small there too. >Also he was only 29/30 against Leonard, not that fucking old and past his prime like people say
add Julio Cesar Chavez to that list just hyped to shit yet trash
Ayden Moore
No
Julian Jenkins
I said I expect it to not sell well. Read my post retard.
Carson Scott
don't ever make an awful convoluted post like this again
Dominic Bell
>never beat an ATG De Jesus and Ken Buchanan are ATG lightweights, you are an absolute contrarian retard and you don't know shit about boxing >beat Leonard not due to excellent boxing >his win isn't as dominant as many have called it was a very competitive fight,I'm pretty sure noone said that, the reason why people remember this fight is because beating a prime,undefeated Leonard is one of the greatest wins in boxing history >duran wasn't that fucking small his reach was 66", you're a fucking dumbass >Duran's inside infighting wasn't that great, he got outmuscled by Hagler Hagler had a 9 inch reach advantage and a weight advantage,how the fuck was he supposed to outbox Hagler on the inside,he tried to catch Hagler with quick,short counterpunches,because it was his only option >he was only 29/30, not past his prime he turned pro at 17 and had many title fights in his 20s, he wasn't past it but his prime ended after the first Leonard fight
now you can fuck off and kill yourself and stop posting this braindead copypasta, I seriously hope this is bait and you don't actually believe all those retarded arguments you came up with, I love how you also magically forget his win over Barkley at fucking 37/38
Ah yes, the mighty Esteban De Jesus who nobody talks about outside of the Duran fights and the goliath Ken Buchanan who nobody but Scottish people care about
Parker Martin
14k attendance for Crawford vs Khan, there will be a higher gate and attendance for Joshua vs Hunter due to no refund policy
just because you're a retard that doesn't know shit about them, does not mean they are not ATGs or undeserving of HoF
Austin Jenkins
Explain how they are ATG's, Gheorghe Hagi, my friend, I am waiting
Brandon Foster
Insult any bum ass old timer boxer and the Romanian Villager™ runs into the thread with his pitchfork lol
Thomas Nelson
Fuck Crawford.
He could've signed with PBC and made more moeny than he is now but that would require him to fight actual opponents. He stuck with Top Rank knowing they would still pay him millions to fight bums while ESPN sucks his dick as p4p#1.
Colton Scott
He can't, they're not noteworthy other than the fact that they're the best lightweights Duran has fought.
Jason Brown
don't bully villagerbro
Jace Peterson
what about aaron pryor, literally who did he beat?
>he acknowledges the fact that canelo is a bum so he must be a golovkunt ggg is a bum too
Luis Flores
GGG CINABUM was a BUM fight
William Gomez
If he beats Jacob's is canelo a BUM?
Sebastian Ramirez
>"is he still a bum if he beats another bum?"
Nicholas Ortiz
kek
Landon Gutierrez
>you now remember adonis stevenson
Jaxon Ortiz
Adonis Stevenson can’t remember himself
Brayden Brooks
He thought they would rule it as intentional and dq him.
Either way the timing was just off and it pissed people off. He should have stopped the fight after the round or before it even started.
Anthony Stewart
Stevenson is also a BUM
Andrew Clark
Holy shit did he just feint a right hook into a right straight? That was fucking beautiful. You can even see the black guy turn his cheek trying to roll with the right hook he fell right into Duran's trap and left himself even more wide to that straight right.
Brayden Ramirez
If the ref thought it was intentional he would have deducted a point, he didn’t which meant it was heading to a technical decision after 4 rounds. Hunter could see that Khan just didn’t want to be there so asked him. The heem brainlets going around saying Brits are seething when nobody was seething misread it
Ayden Rodriguez
Almost thought I was watching Ortiz last night lads, either way Khan had no business stepping into that ring
Nathaniel Foster
He slurs his speech a lot, he was probably conscious of not wanting another bad knockout for health
Thomas Long
His speed is gone. I watched Canelo Khan today and the difference is astounding. He was throwing one-twos as fast as jabs.
Adam Phillips
He got into a war with Samuel Vargas and his last good win was 4 years ago, greed to carry on
