what has happened to boxing

Thankfully I did not stay up for these fights. Watched the highlights and read Tic rbr.

Glad Rolly won, Garcia was awful and the best thing he did was come in batmobile. This is what happens when Ryan fights clean and is on weight, he is average.

Teo did his job but Haney was running.

That was all not very good. Caught what highlights there are and was equally put off by how the um "show" and event was rolled out. Off the top this had to one of the most over produced and hyped card of assumed tune-ups I'm aware of. Let's drop a ring in the middle of the NYC streets to promote a future rematch card and then do something awesome like ohhhhh exclude the live fans except for a couple hundred VIPs and anchor it behind a shitty ridiculous PPV paywall! And while we're at it lets bar some press that may or may not tow the line from direct involvement. Let's make no mistake...this was a Turki infomercial. I do believe we're seeing the downside of guaranteeing multimillion dollar paydays for inflated egos. And there are a helluva lot of inflated egos on display this weekend. And exactly how hard are you going to the well and putting up a fight when you know your next 2,3,4 fights are dated, and the check is blank? It was an entire night of some of boxings biggest names literally going thru the motions. We don't need more gawdy gimmicks and glorified walled off watch parties. I wonder if Ryan got that Batmobile back to the rental agency on time. FFS what are we doing? This is all a much bigger issue with the now massive involvement of TKO going forward. Could fill a page but won't. Not now
