    Was wondering why the Wilder camp had been so quiet -- curious if he really wants the fight or the money to step aside.

    There is no way he doesnt take the step aside money. He's going to get a good chunk and is essentially guaranteed to get the winner after maybe one tune up fight or straight up next fight.

    Outside a canelo fight, aj v fury is the biggest thing in boxing.

    ghey

    Nobody wants to see Fury toy with Wilder again

    I mean actually I do, but I'd rather see Fury V Joshua first

    Josh Taylor is a beast.

    First time watching one of his fights and he's as good as advertised. Hopefully he moves up cause there are a lot of good fights to be made at higher weights.

    It's crazy but listening to many MMA/boxing analyst that I follow, not only does Woodley not take him out early he's not even the favorite to win.

    Morning Kombat, weighing in podcast, Vegas all have this as a very close or tough fight even favoring Jake Paul.

    If this idiot beats Woodley I'm going to have to give him credit for being a real boxer.

    I've seen Woodley, I've seen his most recent fight against Vincente. Woodley is still a legit top 15 talent in his weight class, he's a pure boxer who hits incredibly hard

    I'm not believing a 24 year old dabbling in a new sport has a chance against Woodley, we'll see

    I'm definitely rooting for Woodley and I hope you are right. I'm honestly shocked by the opinions/analysis of many in the industry. Noone would've given the idiot a chance against Woodley last year.

    this?


    Have to admit I don't watch UFC and only watched this clip, but he seems to be completely eating those shots and has zero defense or body movement to evade?

    Might catch a stream or something but i really dont have much interest. I guess the size disparity might make it an interesting freak show for a minute but its still just a freak show.

    Meanwhile pac is fighting spence lmao

    Yeah I'm all in for pac vs spence. Big pac fan but Spencevis so much younger, bigger, stronger... hoping pac doesn't get knocked out.

    Sorta watching this circus on a stream in the background. I'm a sucker for big names, boxing and circuses.
