Good point. I guess I don't know who "They" is. I'm sure there's a middle ground though between people who know EVERYTHING about boxing, and people who know f*ck all about Boxing.

Trust me, it's a rare instance where they're paying attention. Usually a split take is fine and you get the juice. Sometimes they make a play, not that this will be a big haul or anything, but they want everyone to bet on Indongo.

Don't worry about a draw or a bad decision, Indongo is going to get the shit kicked out of him.

No chance of those fights happening. Tiny, tiny chance with Spence, he might demand it.

He's not even the puncher in the fight.

Because Al, nor Arum, are going to put together a fight with their top guys that doesn't generate money. Nobody in the general public knows who Crawford is.

Promoters are powerful, but boxer too. Guys like keith, carol and tc have the dame mindeset. They gonne fight everybody and crawford wont just go up to fight vargas or porter. He wants the top 2 guys. He wants the elite. With that comes the $€£ flow i guess

He wouldn't get Porter either.

Uh Oh, a group of Little League World series games is leading into the telecast and a big tournament is on ESPN 2. I hope I don't have to stream a freaking fight that I have on my TV. :brick:

Hopefully it doesn't run 2 hours over like the NFL HOF show did.

I haven't watched the LLWS since I was a kid, but I think all the games are on the same field. Their broadcasting like 4 or 5 in a row. The last match of the Tennis Tournament is supposed to start at 7, so ESPN 2 might be a better chance. If you're using your DVR I'd tape ESPN 2 and ESPN News to be safe. I missed most of Beltran because of that.

Not if you're waiting up for competition, only if you're staying up to watch the best fighter in the world.

Well i stayed up to watch Lomachenko a couple of weeks back on yhe basis i think he's #1, but it was hardly worth it.
I think Indongo has even a 1 in 10 chance i could be convinced.

I find Crawford more interesting than Loma. While I give Indongo no chance, he's certainly better than marriega.

Yeah, he's legitimately earned his place as the #2 guy right behind Crawford at the moment. Garcia probably becomes the #2 guy after tonight should everything go according to plan.

I give The Indongo about a 15% chance. He is tall, long, southpaw, and more awkward than Postol. He has good enough pop to buzz Hitman Jr if he lands. If that happens early, it makes a number of scenarios more possible.

I'll stay up if i'm not too tired after a few lagers. I get extra grumpy on sundays if i've had 3 hours sleep due to a shitt fight.
