    Eh eh! I've explained countless times why I ordered Davis-Romero. I had ppl over that night.

    Romero-Cruz promises to be a good fight. Rolly isn't particularly good, but I think yall are overhyping Pitbull. He isn't good either.

    I think it'll be a competitive war.

    Agreed, especially if they can get Lubin or Mendoza to fight Boachuk. Rare to see 2 solid fights on the same card nowaday, much less 3. Would still be a shame that it's on PPV though.

    Pitbull is like a homeless man's Provodnikov.

    Regarding what Illum said...

    Someone PLEASE take that cunt off this Earth now, and give Duran an extra 30 years.

    Went tooth and nail with Davis. That alone tells me Rolly doesn't have a chance in hell.

    Tooth and Nail???...

    For What it's Worth, Rolly was Actually WINNING the Tank Fight (In REED's Opinion), Until Walking Into the Kill Shot....

    Rolly Posed More of a Legitimate THREAT to Tank, in HALF the Number of Rounds...A Version of Tank That Could Actually USE His Left Hand, No Less...

    Tooth and nail my ass. Davis beat Cruz 8-4 with one hand.

    Pitbull sucks. I think you guys will be surprised when Rolly makes a fight out of it.

    Never seen davis vs Cruz but romero is a bum and if it's competitive at all ot speaks to how mediocre Cruz is too

    That's my whole point. Cruz is mediocre.

    To Your Earlier Point, Rolly and Pitbull BOTH Suck...It Actually Felt Strange Speaking POSITIVELY About Rolly, to the Degree REED Did:Jest:...

    Pitbull is Becoming the Mexican Mickey Ward; the Humble, Try Hard, "Little Engine That COULD" Type That Makes Fans Feel All Warm and BOXING Fuzzy Inside...And Then, Inevitably, They OVERRATE Him...Rolly-Pitbull is a 50/50 Fight to REED BECAUSE Their Overall Caliber is Similar...

    Pitbull's Milking the SHIT Out of "Hanging In There" w/Tank...

    So why the interest in two scrubs facing off?

    You're Not Missing Shit...It was APPARENT Tank Couldn't Use His Power Hand the WAY He Typically Does, Yet He Still Won w/No Fuss...Doub's Giving Pitbull UNWARRANTED Brownie Points On That "Tooth and Nail" Shit...

    The Fight ITSELF Should Be Pretty Entertaining, if Otherwise Meaningless...

    Rolly look good vs.Tank...but IMO Tank was holding back, not trying to walk into anything, picking his shots...

    Against Abuele ROLLY looked clueless. I expect Pitbull to walk through him with ease...HOWEVER a flash knockdown by Rolly won't surprise me, afterall Pitbull can only fight one way..

    This.

    A fight doesn't have to be impactful to be intriguing.

    Apparently Fundora vs Tszyu is now for WBC strap along with the WBO.

    Thurman’s injury is suspect to me. His team hasn’t even given a statement.

    It's not meaningless though as the winner will be well positioned for an high profile fight in the near future

    Fundora would out-box the powerful ponderous plodder Tszyu

    Tszyu is getting overrated imo, yes he should be the favorite but Fundora is live. He was well ahead against Mendoza before getting caught in what could have very well be a 1 in a million shot.

    I actually think Thurman in his youth could have Phillipsed Tszyu Junior by just gutting it out and returning fire.

    Fundora seems awkwardly effective but vulnerable
