David looks embarrassed by Jose Jr and his juvenile antics. ;D
Charlo questioned why Jose had to walk all the way over there just to do nothing.
Damn. I'm gonna be outta town that night and am gonna miss quite a night of boxing. :(
I'm rooting for David to beat Demetrius... but I think I'm gonna be rooting for Charlo to shut up Jose Jr.
Of course, ain't the first time Jose Jr. talks crap. I remember Crawford put him in his place. ;D
Yeh it's basically the wbc baby-step program to see if Charlo is actually interested in being an active fighter. Oddly enough it's not the first time Jermall will be fighting a one-legged fighter ;D. But Charlo looks off, like his speech and his face looks bloated. Warming to this card nicely. I do believe the money's worth is there on undercard and main. Sadly they waited till the last Showtime PPV to bring it :-X. Went in last week and just cancelled all appointment for Fri and Saturday, making a full four day holiday weekend out of this one ;D. Shit I haven't done that in years. Priorities man.Quote:

If that’s the case, I don’t think he should be anywhere near a boxing ring . He’s clearly doped up on meds (not PEDS I have to say) . It’s a fucking time bomb IMO. Loads of different serious scenarios. Disgusting to be honest.
Yes it is and it is supposed to be a relative easy fight for him to win.Quote:

I'm glad you're gonna be able to enjoy what should be a memorable fight card.
Me... I'm gonna have to take one for the team. Happens to be a special family event/weekend, which is gonna have to take precedence over the fight card.
But damn... why couldn't it have been another "Fury vs Ngannou" instead?? :D ;D
I'll miss being in on the RBR...
i'm looking forward to the subriel matias v shohjahon ergashev fight. pity there's rumors shohjahon wants to retire win or lose. hopefully a win will change his mind. i'm not sure if the pablo vicente v muhammadkhuja yaqubov fight will be streamed. sergey lipinets v michel rivera & hector luis garcia v lamont roach should both be competitive bouts. the more i think about it i can see the main event being a stinker. i hope i'm wrong. i think demetrius starts fast as usual but turns the fight into a run & clinch fest from the midway point, with david b taking a points win with a knockdown or two along the way
jermall missed the catchweight of one sixty three by over three pounds & then came in slightly heavier on the second attempt
Totally unsurprised. He looked puffy in the face at the press conference the other day (as well as being zoned out)Quote:

So I just read up on this, it’s a non title fight.FUCKING CANCEL IT!
yeah it's a ten round non-title fight at a catchweight of one sixty three but jermall blew the weight & came in slightly heavier on his second attempt, i can only remember this happening once before, last i heard is they are working on an agreement for the fight to go aheadQuote:

Fini and kaput the man needs to find another line of work and prioritize his health. He clearly has no interest in professionalism and to still be holding a major title is an embarrassment. He's the walking definition of many things that stifle the sport now. Severe inactivity, glaring indifference and aloofness and no commitment to preforming as a champion. Ultimately the coziness and "safe space" the wbc and Maricio Sullied'man created and defended have only impaired his mindset and made it all worse off. He can blow Benavidez out in less than a round tomorrow and it will prove absolutely nothing for the big picture. Agree with Primo the gimme fight should be cancelled.
Matias v Ergashev has all the makings of a firefight. Sound like it's all become personal and like to see Matia keep his head and refuse coming in with reckless abandon. Garcia v Roach will be good. I was surprised to see them put Rivera right back in. This feels like an assigned sink or swim given to him. Off the top if Lipinets is close to where he was with Figueroa Jr think Rivera is in for a pretty rough night. Craziness, David Bevavidez weighs in less than Andrade :-XQuote:

Benavidez will have doubles on the Thanksgiving left over tonight. Do like his matter of fact tone, strictly business let's stop talking and fight!
So Lipinets vs Rivera doesn't even make the ppv card ???. But Jermall vs Benavidez does? That's a miss. It'll be on the Showtime YouTube Ch. in just a little bit.
