    Did you watch the undercard as well?
    A whole evening of entertaining fights, especially Gongora-Akhmedov and the female fight.

    Yea I laughed at that entrance.

    He's a pretty good talent from what I've seen, especially with the fluidity and head movement.
    Says his fist got broken in the first round or something, so can't evaluate the fight too much.

    ive been a canelo hater since i first saw him being pushed hard by televisa when he was a teen in mexico. from day one he got preferential treatment and i've always felt it was partially due to his complexion. mexican tv loves white mexicans.

    i've gotta say tho, he really is a great fighter. i do think he lost the first ggg fight but at this moment i dont think anyone at middleweight/supermiddle can touch him. his defense is really, really good.

    would like to see him fight ggg one more time.

    Watched the undercard and maincard now, really disappointed by Callum's performance.

    Incredibly hesitant from the first round on and punches had no power at all, no idea what went wrong during the training camp.

    This Garcia-Campbell fight is super entertaining so far.

    that was pretty good by garcia. campbell is a pretty good gatekeeper and he really worked him after that knockdown.

    if garcia doesnt fight tank next, i think linares would be a good scrap.
    lmao no one in the arena gave a **** about haney

    Surprising to see Lomenchenko talk about bribes. He didn't even start fighting until the 4th rd. GGG looked strong, Canelo looked dominant, Ryan Garcia surprised me. I'm hearing that Ryan and Davis have already agreed to fight.

    It was a series of mini-strokes, he'll be fine.
