Mayweather-Cotto was amazing in the theater. Canelo-Mosley on the undercard too. Mosley was shot by then but it was funny seeing the casuals confused and laughing the first time they heard ginger Canelo speak and realize hes mexican. Then the puerto ricans were mad as hell Mayweather was beating his ass and though Cotto won too.

Canelo vs. Jacobs bout to start
the fight for ALL of GGG's belts! (lmao)
GGG already beat Jacobs so really he's set up to fight the winner and has storylines with both
this fight is likely gonna be super technical if I were to guess. Way less slug fest than GGG fights.Awesome pics. Great size. Look thick. Solid. Tight. Keep us all posted on your continued progress with any new progress pics or vid clips. Show us what you got man. Wanna see how freakin' huge, solid, thick and tight you can get. Thanks for the motivation.

Ima post ITT now since it's in the fighting section
Called two bars and they said no. Guess they didn't want to bother.
True and it's sad. Probably one of the big reasons that boxing has slightly fallen out with casuals.
Still plenty of great fights, but between lesser known fighters.ωσяℓ∂ тяανєℓєя ȼяєω

2018 was such a promising year, especially at heavyweight. Seemed like we were getting back on track making good fights.
Now 2019 won't see any of the top three fight each other, and it's only a 'maybe' that we see them in 2020. I'm glad Miller isn't fighting Joshua, he would have been out of there quick in my opinion. I think Andy Ruiz will give Joshua a better fight.
I liked the fight last night, Canelo vs Jacobs. It wasn't the most entertaining but it was obvious I was watching two top middleweights and it ended up being a close fight after a strong start from Canelo. I think Golovkin vs Canelo III is quite likely to happen because there are no obvious barriers in the way of making that fight. Providing of course that Golovkin beats Steve Rolls (Who is Steve Rolls?)
Outside of Joshua vs Wilder, Crawford vs Spence is right at the top of list of fights I want to see. With Al Haymon and Bob Arum in the way, that fight ain't happening.

Well Crawford v. Spence is in Mr. Arum's hands it seems. But yeah we need Canelo GGG soon, like before Gennady turns 40, lol.
And I know Manny's old but I think he still brings alot of value to the table, so you got Danny wanting to fight him before fighting Thurman again or Spence.ωσяℓ∂ тяανєℓєя ȼяєω

Theater was less than half full. I wonder if with DAZN being only $9.99 per month if it will be the death of watching boxing socially. Back in the day people used to gather in one house to split the cost of a Tyson PPV and then in DeLaHoya time people would go to a sports bar and watch a fight. Now there is no reason to get together and watch. I paid $20 to watch at the theater and could have watched at home for half.
A similar thing happened with Wrestlemania. I used to go to a friends house and pile into the living room and everyone threw money in for the fight. Now, it's so affordable and accessible there is no reason to get together. You can just watch at home and text your friends about it.

I think it's a 50/50. I used to think it was heavily in Joshua's favour but Wilder will always have an equal footing regardless of who he fights with that monstrous power. Personally, I see Joshua overwhelming Wilder. He has a lot more to his game than Wilder, if it wasn't for power, Wilder would not even break the top 30 HW ranking, his skills and technique are abysmal. I could definitely see Joshua getting rocked or even dropped at some point, but the combination of skills + power would eventually see Joshua prevail and emerge victorious.

didn't know who Ruiz was before he was announced as the replacement to fight Joshua after Miller failed his test
After watching training footage and past fights of Ruiz I thought it was going to be a pretty tough fight for Joshua but that he would come out the winner again. But I knew it wouldn't be a walk in the park. Ruiz hand speed is pretty fking impressive for a man his size and look lol. He was coming back with very fast counters the entire fight. was getting off 2-3 punch combo's to Joshua's 1
as mentioned earlier in this thread about Lomachenko's last fight, where he put the guy away with a punch that connected behind the ear. Joshua was done after that 3rd round where Ruiz connected with a hard left hook behind Joshua ear. I've been hit in that spot in sparring and although i'm not taking a powerful shot like these guys are throwing, I can still tell that I would be fked up if I got hit hard there. It fks up your equilibrium really bad. you could see Joshua legs go instantly after that shot.
Also, Joshua did not look impressive at all in the first 2 roundsYellow Fever Crew
