PLAY LA BAMBA BABY
The new Greg Jones
Curious if chibob thinks some twink with TECHNIQUE could beat him. Could probably fend off 2 welterweights simultaneously and he looks like a total fucking slob lol

he chose not to go the MMA route b\c one leg kick would wreck his GLASSKNEES

Might have found my signed Merciless Ray Mercer gloves. Still need to get a nice gelatin print of this for the new house:

Card starts at 11:00 BEST coast, so I’d say ring walks would come around 5 ET LEAST COAST COLLINSWORTH TIME
perfect. Plenty of time to recover. Glad it’s not going down whilst the bday champagne room going down will be occurring.

During ‘07-‘10 I had Emmanuel Steward’s commentary quote of “and here comes Gatti back!” during their first war as a text alert. RIP to Gatti indeed

Good looking out. Will be nice to have something to watch tonight in case these streets remain flooded and I can't make it to

Big fight Saturday night bros in Vegas. Tank Davis vs Ryan Garcia. No belts on the line and it’s at a catch weight, but some of the two best younger fighters out there. Been following Tank is whole career.
Will be in the 80’s over the weekend. Grilling? Can’t wait..
Pretty one sided, though. Davis just appears to be in a whole, 'nother class than any of his opponents. You could see after Garcia got knocked down in the 2nd that he was scurred.
Unfortunately, Davis has a similar style to Floyd Mayweather. Meaning he is very excellent at what he does, uses his energy very efficiently, is as quick as a cobra in the counter-punch ----- and is boring af to watch.
Also, @bruin, caught the Shakur Stevenson vs. Shuichiro Yoshino fight the other week. Another very one-sided match, but Stevenson is FUN to watch! Even his jabs look like power punches, and it was almost shocking to see an undefeated boxer in Yoshino totally look like a BUM against him.

It was interesting seeing Floyd walkout with Tank to the ring as they had a falling out in recent years. Tank came up under Mayweather promotions and kinda looked at Floyd as a mentor. You can literally see Tank trying to listen to Floyd’s instructions during some of the rounds from ringside. I still think Tank’s best weight is 135, but his lifestyle has outgrown it.
Shakur might be Boxing’s Pound for Pound best sooner rather than later. His demolishing of Oscar Valdez a year back was sensational as signs of a great fighter is when you make a good fighter like Valdez look plain ordinary. No one is calling out Stevenson though. He’s too good.

Yeah, pretty sure Davis can go up another couple of weight classes and still be great. Catch-weight fights, in my estimation, always seem to favor the guy coming up to make weight, rather than the guy coming down. Unless the guy coming up has just recently come up from an even lighter weight class.
Yeah Stevenson is really entertaining - he's really, really good. I don't honestly see a weakness in his game right now, at his current weight class. As he ages, he'll likely go up in class too, and then we'll see whether he can retain that kind of power against bigger guys.
