I'll be watching for sure! A big night of boxing and MMA, I hate it when they do that.

I think Berto will shine tonight and absolutely destroy Soto. Not seen the argie Thurman is fighting but the way Oscar talks about Thurman Ill be hoping he scores a KO

It'll be very interesting to see how Juicy comes back from Guerrero thrashing. You can time Soto Karass with a sun dial, Mike Jones beat him into a gory lump second time around He didn't belong at 154 but if he has anything left I think he has a moment and can seriously hurt Juicy momentarily.Chaves is strong but pretty flat footed and raw. Both he and Thruman can be hit so it may be explosive early but seeing Chaves gas out, timed and dropped hard by a 40 yr old Omar Weiss may not bode well for him. The 4th fight and hopefully off air is supposed to be Anthony dirrell vs Anthony Hanshaw :cwm33:

Haha, Dirrell and Hanshaw again:D Imagine knowing when those guys first met up that they would rematch these years later being far less established than they were then:-\

Nice crowd, sucks I couldn't go.

Hopefully Thurman gets his chin tested tonight. I'll give me a better idea on how far he can go

Wouldn't shock me to see double knockdowns ;D Don't blink

Mandatory point deduct for Chaves hair

Good round gave it to Chaves 10-9

Fuck warming up. They already throwing. Good round

Thurman needs to learn how to duck

These rounds are close I'll give it to Chaves 20-18

What's up with all these Argentinean fighters always fucking with there trunks during a fight?

Damn man. Thurman better stay off the ropes...Chaves starting to huff and puff

Damn 30-27 Chaves, very nice fight.

If Thurman tried to box he'd do himself a favor, hes not setting anything up at all. Looks rattled

Good fight so far. I have Chaves winning so far, and I hope he wins. Thurman annoys me.

Thurman takes his first round.

39-37 Chaves, I'm liking this more than Maidana-Lopez which is my 6th favorite fight this year.

48-47 Chaves, I gave it to Thurman but really what can you say it was slow

58-56 Chaves I'd hate to be a judge, it's possible to have given 3 and 6 to Thurman

Me too. No man who sounds like Daffy duck can ever pull off corn rolls

Boxing better in 6th, like to see him invest that jab.

67-66 Chaves, still enjoying fight close round gave it to Thurman

76-76, I'm not going to lie I didn't think Thurman would come down from being down 3 rounds.

Solid 8th round for Chaves. Not keeping score but on body language Thruman needs to regroup and close strong

Thurman looks worried in the corner.

Steve Farhood is smoking hash oil

Uhh in the gut!! Chaves takes a knee

Damn it. Come on Chaves, get one in return.

86-84 Thurman, no way to have Chaves up by two rounds I gave Chaves both close rounds and you see my score.

Onetime wins, he's legit.

God damn it. :mad:

Geez look at Chaves' eyes.

I'm not on the Thurman train...but very very good learning fight and he slammed the door shut. Needs work, but nice scrap!

Ha! Fucking idiot.

i hope berto has lost just enough to make this an absolute war with soto. glad i picked thurman by ko as initially drunk i picked chaves just cause im not high on thurman

Cole always looks like hes just come off an angry booze bender.

I'm so high on Figueroa, first round KO.
