Fadingpain Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Watched the fights tonight. Machado is a talented guy; he won his fight easily and it probably should have been stopped at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea he is fast and explosive... had sloppy footwork and spotty D after his last fight but the 9 months off looked like they helped Maybe he gets Gervonta next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I have watched all big fights on HBO for years; I'll be tuning in. Boxing offers, by far, the most interesting drama of any sport on the planet. Yet it suffers a poor image for the reasons we all know. Anyway, I'll be hoping for a great fight as always. I'm still recovering from the excellent Canelo/Triple G rematch! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took personal interest when my friend Jay was fighting as well but he’s too old and beat up at this point so He lives vicariously through Machado and I’m sure he is so proud to have a huge impact training a now world champion since the beginning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theyve grabbed top euro soccer games and cricket test matches and now boxing Their attempts to snake the NFL last year failed miserably as they can’t deliver real time streaming adequately and NFL fans watch the games intently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Joe Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Not much boxing on now that most have gone back to PPV. Watched the Gabriel Flores Jr. fight last night in his hometown of Stockton on ESPN. Hard not to root for this kid.https://www.abc10.com/article/sports/boxings-rising-star-gabriel-flores-jr-ready-to-shine-on-national-stage-in-hometown-of-stockton-on-saturday/103-78915e98-b134-47d6-a3fb-2aa81c487ecf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
