Choco-Srisaket II/Inoue-Nieves/Cuadras-Estrada - Sept 9 Great Card!!!

[Fenster]

This is live on SKY.

Excellent card. I thought we had a thread already. Gonzalez rights the injustice done last time. I think he'll fight the same way as last time but he'll start faster. Monster will be all destruction. Estrada and Caudras may steal the show. I think stylistically Caudras is a handful for Estrada, although I see Estrada pulling out a close one.

[Spicoli]

Man this is just a fat card. Top tier fighters all in spr fly triple header and a couple p4p hopefully headed to a face off. Definite rarity and feels nostalgic for weight range. Also talked an old school bud who just started watching the sport into catching it and stop saying Golovkin Canelo is "only thing" soon .

Looks like I'm going to have to miss this one, I'll need to record it and watch it in the morning

I'm not doing the usual Saturday night boozing/Indian till they boot me out and come back to watch the fight, I'm doing barbecue. The meat is already marinating. One of the marinades is basically pureed Scotch Bonnets.

The Sky show starts at 3.15 to 6

That sounds well late for three title fights. Inoue is most likely to end within 6 (even though he's fighting a bantamweight) but the other two fights look almost cert 12-rounders.

Well if it is running until 6am then there is a chance that the fight won't start until 5ish which means I might still be able to catch it live...depending on how hungover I am.

Yeah, I don't understand it. Canelo didn't even prove himself the best at 154 but this is supposed to be the best MW fight? Makes no sense. Canelo will have to be better than he's ever been to compete. Or GGG will need to have slipped a bit.

This card tonight is where it's at

I've begrudgingly come around to Canelo at middle as size on fight night is obvious. Then there's the trinket from Cotto who 'beat the man' yadda yadda. But you simply cannot take a title won with CW conditions serious imo. Hell some titles you cannot take serious at all . Fact is the fight is here though and a win changes everything for Canelo and gets him that respect. I honestly think Golovkin looked not so stellar vs Jacobs but respect to Jacobs and seriously needs to up his output next week. It's a good fight and I'll def be front row but not the be all to end all for sport at least to me. Should Canelo pull it off the belts splinter and I in no way see him facing Jermall Charlo or even Derevyanchenko. Sanders-Monroe jr winner..yeh.

What makes this card so great are each fight has it's own anticipated story and winners of all three very much have a future as yet more big matches vs one another. Gonzalez looks to right a 'wrong' and reset his shine. Inoue in a very anticipated Stateside debut and mass exposure that comes with and Cuadras v Estrada is a headliner in itself. Fly and super fly get very little stage to begin with and this deserves it.

[Kirkland Laing]

Estrada looking decent here.

Back acne is de rigeur for a lot of fighters these days it seems. I'm guessing no VADA testing of this card.

[Batman]

Haven't seen the result yet and I'm dying a little bit, last night ended up in a monumental session.

Just had a subway breakfast and now I'm gunna get my head down for an hour and then watch the replay on sky sports...that is if my hangover doesn't kick in before that.

I like the fight. I just don't like the notion it is the best vs the best. GGG has work to do with Jacobs to prove who is best between those two and Canelo has done absolutely nothing to prove he is the best at MW.

But tonights card is off to a blistering start as we knew it would be. And like you said no matter the outcomes it leads to other great fights.

[Spicoli]

Estrada huge 7th, good 5th but Cuadras did great work early rounds. Pretty good fight!

[Fenster]

Through 6 rounds.

HBO 5-1 Cua

SKY 5-1 Est

Fenster - we'll call it 3-3
