Richard Commey v Ray Beltran ESPN

[Spicoli]

Just watched Easter vs Commey again to get psyched up for this matchup. It backfired. I had forgotten Commey held on like an octopus to escape being stopped. Now I just think “Easter beat Commey and beat another man who beat Commey, recently” why is Easter not getting a shot? Because he lost to Mikey? If you fight good fighters you lose sometimes.

And 5 seconds later I remembered the Bartholemy fight. Easter had another crack, are they running that back?

Don't be a buzzkill Ron . Yeh that was actually a very good scrap, I had Commey edging Easter. And truth be told Easter arguably lost to Barthelemy and Fortuna too. If anything these two have gone in two different directions, Commey up and Easter down. Real shame Commey was ordered mandatory for both Garcia and Easter II but both declined.

What time does this start, got tsn for the cop america this month and they are showing this.. Beltran is fun to watch, hopefully the commentators aren't still rambling about how he needs to win to stay in the country :S

Be interested to see how Commey deals with the bodywork by Beltran. I've got 9pm Central, hour and a half.

Commey up, but he lost to a guy Easter beat AFTER Easter beat Commey. When did the up start exactly? The 4 opponents he beat since those consecutive losses I only know from fighting him. Tonight would be the fight to tell us something if Beltran wasn’t 140 years old. All just looks like someone is being built to be a lamb to slaughter to me. But I could just be a buzzkill haha

Pretty tactical first five rounds from Adames and Day. Day bit busier picking his spots but Adames beginning to sit down on his stuff and needs to do so. Adames would do well to up his activity level but clearly the bigger puncher when he does open up. Day really getting clipped by a nice short upper-hook more than once.

A split decision to Shafikov, in Moscow. Haven't sat through the 12 rounds but Commeys up basically kicked off from the disputed Easter fight. Follow up 2 eliminators, minor title and then signs to fight Mikey who opted out, Easter does the same so Commey caps Chaniev for the belt. Fan familiar Beltran now serves as bit of a main event break out if Commey keeps his head on straight, then Loma and he can get talks back on track. Def an up. But first Beltran who should not be slept on at all. He knows this is it basically and rather than drain down comes in heavy, win over top champ outweighs a trinket I spose.

Adames a strong fighter, decent win. Feels a little bit Lacy though but early to tell. Day did well to remain upright when he was catching down the stretch. For some reason I still want to see Fa v Guinn .

[Spicoli]

They are really pushing that Teofimo Lopez train haaaard.

[Spicoli]

Must have said it 20 times but I sure would like to see Mikey Garcia pick a definitive career path. He just went on about 135 to 147 but seems to always go back to "I just don't know right now".

Both these guys look fresh coming out good atmosphere. And here's to short shorts and tennis shoes. My goodness.
