Yeah, wow! They would have definitely hand picked this guy as he must be confident that he can beat him. And I just watched that video, I actually reckon Canelo could out-point him no worries. Different levels of skill there for sure, even though Makabu is a big lad lol.
A lot of people are scratching their heads on this fight. Maybe Makabu has a huge PPV following. Tweet— Twitter API (@user) date
Lol, yeah I bet lol Canelo is going to be the first ever Mexican to become a 5 weight world champion. I guess this also helps out Makabu also as it will set him up for life after boxing with the pay cheque he will receive from this fight.
Cool man, I normally watch these fights at 1pm Sunday afternoons, but a little earlier be good as be nice to watch it in the morning.
What's next??? As a rule. I don't get out of my box until the sunset It is an exceptionally slow weekend in Las Vegas. I don't think this fight will even come close to selling out. Ringside seats are still available.
Nah, I don' think it would be a sell out either, I am just hoping that it's a good fight. I am going to watch it soon. Bud Crawford is one of my favourite fighters, I think he's the king and hopefully he beats Porter and fights Spence Jr next.
That's awesome man! I thought TC would have stopped him in the later rounds via TKO and I had it 6 to 3 to TC also.
Good fight, and it let out before the hockey game ended. Lol, It was over before Porter went down. And now, the main event of my evening. Image Unavailable, Please Login
**** aye, not only was this the first time he was stopped, he retired also. And Crawford will go down in the history books as being the first man to stop Porter and retire him also.
Great pic. Crawford did it easy I reckon, I think he was playing around the first half of the fight as he was smiling A LOT and ****ing around. When he turned it on around the 8th or 9th round he started to land some clean shots and it was only a matter of time. I saw some of the judges score cards and they had it very close and I think one judge had Porter winning before he was stopped lol.
BIG fight on this weekend! Finally we get to see Teofimo Lopez defend all those belts he won from Lomachenko when he goes up against Australian tough guy George Kambosos! George Kambosos Jr And Teofimo Lopez's Dad's Clash At Open Workout (sportbible.com) Image Unavailable, Please Login
Back to Crawford, we had him winning 6 rounds to 3, but apparently the judges saw different and had the fight A LOT closer. All the judges had Crawford ahead, 86-85, 87-84, 86-85, but I think Crawford was doing a lot better than those score cards. Anyway, they just released this video of Crawford being told he was down on points in the fight going into the 10th round. This is when Crawford turns it up a notch and stops Showtime Shawn Porter! It wasn't a classic fight by any means, but it was a fantastic win. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Seeing as Spence Jr is still out till next year, I would like to see TC take that belt from Ugas and then setup a fight with Spence Jr for all the gold! They are expecting Spence Jr to come back early next year, (fingers crossed he does his career is not over) but I doubt his first fight back he will want to fight Terence Crawford lol Hopefully Crawford can fight Ugas next and then move onto the Spence Jr mid 2022.
