No.

ESPN3 if you can stream it. Dish Network has it and think it's offered on Xbox live. Makes zero since to have 3rd channel with no cable

Any word on the IBF second day weigh in yet? Wondering if this affects Crawford at all or not.

[Spicoli]

Indongo, who is only getting this fight because he burgled two trinkets, wasn't even known a year ago, most fans have never seen him fight (just read the comments on here) yet are all excited/hyped because four silly belts are on the line.

Lets get this right - Indongo is a far bigger betting outsider than McGregor to beat Floyd. The silly Floyd mismatch is considered more competitive than the super duper shiny belts fight.

Indongo didn't look like a P4P world-conqueror beating a virtual "shot" Burns. He's a tall bloke with a rinse and repeat left hand that showed a good engine in a fight he was allowed to dominate and control.

Crawford KO within 6. (7/2)

He only did what every fighter hopes for though right, receive the trinket opportunity in career and win. I'm a sucker for obscure boxers thrown in and showing they can actually swim a bit and getting an even bigger shot. He's a massive underdog and should be as you said that left hand looks to be the danger zone and his footwork doesn't look fluid at all but he ended Kamote, Lyimo and Troyanavosky all on lefts so lets hope for a competitive fight/round at least . It's not so much the trinket scramble and destroying Indongo will not enhance Crawfords ability or skill any higher than we already know it, but every division should be forced to sweep them up for one champion rather than into the wind with 4 different owners. Its a good thing for the sport. If Crawford is all business and less playing around, once he backs Indongo up in that straight line after early feel out it should be a wrap.

So you big up Marriaga who has 0 good wins, is 0-3 in title fights for a fight moving up in weight. But steal the shine off a guy who is trying to do what has only been done once since the 80's and is fighting in his division. The division he has won 2 titles in traveling to his opponents home towns. Interesting completely backwards perspective.

I agree that Crawford wins though, just not within 6.

[palmerq]

jennings and whyte win and it didnt make it to tv, Mike reed is on now v frenkel, doesnt seem like much of a contest

[palmerq]

I guess reed has some nice contract with top rank or something, otherwise why put this on on tv, reeed is winning easy and frankel just doesnt look that good but we are still here in the 5th round ....

bet 5 canadian quids on umbongo winning by ko, he is wild but tall and strong and crawford has become a bit complacent recently, so i think it is worth the fairly good odds, mayb ehe can land one of those weird, awkward left hands and put crawford to sleep like he did to troyanovsky.

[palmerq]

frankels shorts have split.... maybe the most interesting thing happening here :S.... although i guess if you squint reed looks a bit like bradley cos errr they are both black and bald :Sidk

[palmerq]

reed wins ud, he dominated pretty much, so well done to him but i think he will be disappointed not to get a stoppage, it was not much of a contest

I never "bigged up" Marriaga.

My point is about FANS not fighters, there's no criticism or "shine stealing" going on.

If you understood my points you would realise the Marriaga situation is perfectly consistent with this. Belts dazzle your wide eyes but the substance behind them is all that matters. Marriaga is a better opponent than Indongo.

You said he "burgled" and said he "was allowed to dominate". If you don't realizing that is stealing shine, you know what. You are clearly being deceptive again. It's your thing, I get it.

Suggesting I am about belts is just more of your deception. I constantly talk about fights. Fights.

You are the one that leads people, like calling Mijey a 140 fighter when he was at 130 just a couple fights ago. He isn't a 140 fight and you know it. But, again, leading, deceiving. Read your own words. You want to not steal shine, perhaps don't say guys burgled or were allowed. Just say he kicked their asses. Like what happened, not what you want people to see.

[Ron Swanson]

This dude just traveled to every champions home to fight and Fenster wants to disrespect that, fuck that. Indongu did exactly what all fighters should do

[Spicoli]

It's the Razor Ruddock'ism. When a rep is pretty much based on 2 big losses. At least Indongo was near same weight class and won what got him there.

Stop lying. You don't understand my posts so instead of making incorrect assumptions just leave it.

I never once insulted Indongo or Crawford. If you and your friends think belts make a fighter great, fine. I don't. I judge fighters by how and who they fight. That's all.

((lets keep the topic about boxing/Crawford not each other ))

So because you don't understand me I have to change the way I post? Behave. I am not American, i'll speak however I like.

I decieve people? No, you're paranoid. And you just admitted you don't even know what I mean half the time.

"Burgled" is a COMPLIMENT!!! It's merely colourful lexicon, instead of blandly writing "Indongo twice won belts away from home." A "shot" Burns wasn't able to do anything about being dominated ("shot" implies a non-shot Burns would have done much better). I was making a case for why Crawford would win EASY, why Crawford was worth betting on by early KO! How do you expect someone to make a case for a betting angle without offering reasons? I said similar things about Indongo before he faced Burns.

Garica fought Broner at what weight? 140!!! Garcia is currently RING ranked in what division? 140!!! How the funk is telling the TRUTH deceptive? Stop with the nonsense.
