    I wasn't too hyped because I don't consider either top of the division, but seeing evenly matched heavies go at it is so rare that I can see how i was mistaken.

    Prob post that in the MMA thread. Haven't seen it yet. Figured it would. Hari has miles on him and Rico is nothing compared to what heavyweight kickboxing has had to offer in the past.

    Tell your blokes to stop cheering so hard when Joshua knocks out bums. Maybe they'll give him a decent fight.

    Fight in the crowd that delayed the Main Event was a little more exciting.

    He's still outboxing everybody. Molina had some fight in him too. You should check out Charlo-Williams as well. Promising Americans fighting for their first world titles 26 year olds out of Houston and Philly. Jermall Charlo has a brother, Jermell, with a title in the same weightclass as well.

    Was that on the same card? I'll have to check it out in a week when the replay is available on HBO.

    Caught the Crawford and man did he look amazing. Molina has a lot of heart for hanging in there like he did but he just got outclassed. Idk why Crawford isn't bigger than he is, great fighter in his prime and has some flash to his style.

    What a war that fight was. Whyte has an incredible chin.

    Nah, it was on a different card. Lots of boxing this past weekend.



    Crawford just hasn't fought at welterweight yet which is where he should break through. They desperately want Pac to fight him. It's better for the sport if Pac and Mayweather's legacies don't end with them. We need the young guys to launch themselves off already established stars. Crawford right now is more like Ward in that he can sell out his hometown, but won't do great numbers elsewhere. He's easily the best American under 30. Errol Spence Jr. should take that spot next year.

    Would you rather see Crawford-Pac or Loma-Pac?

    Loma-Pac is dumb imo. Pac has been fighting at welterweight since like 2009. I'm good seeing fat Loma fight somebody he probably can't hurt. I get it that all the big names are up at welterweight, but I'd rather see him go class by class. Take a title off Jorge Linares. That'd be fun. Idk what the politics are behind that though.

    Wish we would've got to see Loma fight Rigondeaux or Frampton or Leo Santa Cruz before he stepped up. How hard he s--- on Gary Russell Jr. was proof enough he could move on though.
