Thurman didn't seem to be as anxious as Porter about the rematch. Keith's not the same. He's more cautious then he was in the past. He might not want to fight someone like Shawn who's gonna come and keep coming. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

anyone else think Thurman was looking fat?
Errol Spence Jr ain't no joke. Thurman may be getting fat in the sense, he's made more money than ever before and maybe he doesn't put the work in like he use to. If he gets into the square jungle with either Spence or Porter he better come correct. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Seemed to me like Berto was trying to find a way out, from the first accidental headbutt. Porter was clearly the younger, more hungry fighter. He wanted the win, however necessary, more-so than Berto.
Errol's got some great skills for sure and am really looking forward to seeing who wins between he and Kell Brook. I think that fight is 50/50. Would love to see Thurman against the winner or even a rematch with Porter.
Another fight that I wish could be made already is the fight that was being built up for so long, at 140, but it went to crap when Amir lost to Lamont (althought, I still don't think Lamont won). Amir Khan vs. Timothy Bradley would be a great fight to watch. Great fight for both of them, at this point in their careers. _________________ Just chill and watch the new Dynasty evolve...

Thanks for the heads up. Got it on record. I know I'll forget to tune in. Hell I sometimes forget what I had for breakfast. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Joshua punched himself out after the first knock down. He went all in. he was one tired camper.
When Klitschko knocked him down I thought he was done. Have to give him credit for weathering the storm.
At first I thought it was a quick stoppage. When Fields stepped in I thought I saw Wladimir look him at him with a look of defeat. One that said I'm done. Good stoppage. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

This Joshua kid giving Klitschko... and Max Kellerman props, I like it. Humble and still one of the best
I get that Klitschko is practically part of HBO after all these years but Lampley, Kellerman and RJJ's commentary was so biased towards him it was irritating.
Even after the ref called it they were saying it was too early to stop it.
He was knocked down twice in less than minute and couldn't even protect himself after that. _________________ "Suck it up. Don't be a baby. Do your job." - Kobe Bryant

Watch the fight again. I thought it was early stoppage until I caught a glimpse of Klitschko looking at Fields when he stepped in. He had the look of a fighter who had, had enough. Also he didn't complain. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Max also asked him after the fight if he thought it was early and stuff... Klitscho didn't really fight that 'decision', like you said, he accepted it

I didn't have to see his eyes. I was watching the punches he was taking to the head in that last flurry following that second vicious knockdown. He couldn't protect himself and that's when the ref needs to step in and stop it. _________________ "Suck it up. Don't be a baby. Do your job." - Kobe Bryant
Klitschko could have and should have finished Joshua in the 6th. Once he got dropped twice more in the 11th and subsequently battered on the ropes while showing no resistance, the ref had to stop it. I thought Joshua would have a lot less trouble with Klitschko than he did. I think Wilder could catch Joshua with a lucky punch and end the fight. Joshua's defense/chin were very suspect in this fight. He looked absolutely ready to go in the 6th.

Jr. isn't smart.
but I still want him to win.
for some reason I can't get behind a ginger mexican. it doesn't feel right. JCC Sr. was the greatest.. and I secretly hope for Jr. to make his father proud.
