After the unification fight determined between Wilder/Joshua/Fury in 2020 -First will be Zhang Zhilei (though he is older he is undefeated and has fought in obscurity but is a Chinese Olympic Madalist and will draw millions in Chinese TV), -then Kabayel and then - the winner between the Hrgovic vs A...

Which is a shame as a fit, two-fisted Haye should have been a force at heavyweight. He got too right hand happy and didn’t get back to somewhere near his best until the Chisora fight, and by then it was far too late. Haye is a wasted talent IMO. One of the biggest disappointments during my time wat...

Boxing was a massive sport then. 300 million people watched it, they didn't all pay for it. You just don't understand much of anything. Nobody in Mexico has EVER paid for a canelo fight. The media reports all used the term PAID when discussing viewers in theaters. . . .Do you think that movie theat...

I predicted a 400,000 buy and I predict the rematch to do 1.5 million. It wasn't a great enough fight to excite that many more people for the rematch. It had a few dramatic moments so it'll definitely sell, but I doubt very highly it'll sell nearly 4x better. A few years ago I predicted that this e...

A big step up but necessary for a boxer of his age as he hopes to reach the upper level while in his athletic prime.
