My opinion on Clarissa Shields hasn’t changed after last night. The woman who can beat her is six years old right now, she’s just ahead of her time and women’s boxing. She suffers from the Roy Jones effect. It’s not her fault she’s that much better than the rest of the class.
When a prospect makes their way to a title against a slew of fighters with 15-1, 16-2 type records that retire or stop fighting after facing that prospect. They’re beneficiaries of weak matchmaking. Those aren’t real tests, they’re payouts intended to build a name. #boxing
Read this when I was a kid in Juvenile Hall, the story kind of stuck because of that. I hope it’s good, they’ve ruined a few of his books with movies.
Every step is a choice. Every mile breaks them down. Only one walks away. The Long Walk — Trailer 2 out now. Only in theaters September 12.
Yes, only so I can continue making fun of my buddy who likes the Bucs lol.
Would you support a Tampa Bay Buccaneers return to this logo and color scheme?
Josh Edwards fighting again August 2nd in Chicago. This guy is going to be really good, if you’re one of those dudes that likes to reminisce on when your era had the best heavyweights. Watch Edwards, he’s a legit 80-90’s era style of heavyweight.
Early morning card on Wednesday but definitely worth it. #TerajiSandoval @DAZNBoxing @FightsATW fightsatw.com/kenshiro-teraj…
Imagine how much harder it’s going to be after the proliferation of promoter titles. It’ll be like UFC, Bellator, One, PFL, and all the other MMA shows that don’t work with each other because they have their own champions. Zayas could end up the TR champ under a UBO.
A bout between Vergil Ortiz-Xander Zayas would be not only an interesting fight, but a really fun and interesting promotion, right? But Steve (Ra)Kim has a question, as serious as cancer.. Do you think it will actually happen relatively soon? I mean, the way the current #boxing…
So once UBO’s are in place what’s going to be the excuse for the promoter belt era? Protection of ticket sellers will get worse and options will be reduced. But we’ll get shows on Netflix and that makes them the best right?
The Klitschko era was like a long drawn out nap.
What is or was the most boring era in boxing?
Vergil is the best 154 lber in the World. Regardless of who holds the belts

Shortly the best Boxing American Heavyweight will be 2024 U.S Olympian Joshua Edwards, the recently turned 25 year old is now 3-0, with 3 KO's. His next fight is this Saturday night on DAZN from Chicago featuring Duarte-Sims. He's promoted by @OscarDeLaHoya's Golden Boy…
Nah, let’s be honest about who he was fighting tonight. Tough guy, meant to lose. That performance doesn’t meet the mustard with Ortiz, Murtazaliev, or even Bohachuk. They’re going to chase Fundora because of his lone loss, even that’s a bad idea.
Real question, can Xander Zayas beat the top guys at 154? 🤷♂️ #ZayasGarcia
Boring fight for Carrington, not really what you want when the organization highlights him as the future on their last ESPN show.
This is my daily salute to a badass and this one goes out to Kelly Leak. He might’ve only been 12 years old but he was Gen X and we all had the mindsets of 25 year olds by that point. Kelly was smoking heaters on his dirt bike, smashing home runs every at bat and picking up girls…
