    What an embarassment. I used to like Broner and think that his antics were more for humor than arrogance, but tonight he totally embarrassed himself. He fought dirty, he faked being hurt after the headbutt, and then to run away from the cameras that he loves to be in front of instead of facing the music is pathetic. Kudos to Bryan Kinney for calling him out for it. I just wish Maidana would have knocked his ass out.

    San Antonio should be ashamed too because despite the fact that Broner is a dick, you can't throw shit at him after the fight.

    PS - how good did Thurman look? That kid can be nasty!

    Agreed on all accounts. That faking was worse than Italian soccer players. Love Brian Kinney, a great Yankee fan ;)

    solid fight, especially considering the whole polish contingent was there. kind of boring fight for Garcia, but better to not lose it, which he was never in danger of doing so after the second round.

    Salido v. Lomachenko tonight was everything that is wrong with Boxing. A guy makes no attempt to make weight, overhydrates and adds 19 pounds in one night. Enters the fight with a huge weight advantage, then proceeds to hold and throw low blows all night long while the ref stands and stares while doing nothing and Salido is rewarded with a win.

    He is one of the most frustrating boxers in the world. When he shows up, he can be very good, but he only shows up half the time. I still want to see him put Sergio on his ass again.

    Just watched the Canelo/Angulo fight. Damn Canelo looked good but they shouldn't have stopped the fight (not that it would have mattered).
    It's time for Deontay Wilder to fight someone who is more than a punching bag.
    Danny Garcia is still a bitch.

    Hopkins is a dipshit. No one pays attention to him because his fights are all a snoozefest and he fights dirtier than just about anyone out there. It has nothing to do with his race. Has he not heard of Ali, Frazier, Tyson, Foreman, Mayweather...none of those guys have a problem getting coverage and last time I checked, they are the same race as Hopkins. I hope Kovalev destroys that old man and puts him out to pasture.

    Hopkins is a clown and is one of the most uneducated human beings in sports, but fuck no I'm not cheering for a Russian over him.

    Here's hoping none of us ever have to listen to Roy Jones ludacris defense of Bernard Hopkins ever again. That fight tonight was a joke and so was those 3 clowns on HBO's commentary. Kovalex absolutely destroyed that old man. Here's hoping he does the same thing to Adonis Stevenson next.

    Yessir. Can't wait for tonight's brawl. Rubber match. Can't fucking wait

    Jennings gets a shot at the champ. So pumped. He has no shot but he got him to come to the states. I will 100% be in attendance. Wonder if I could convince the wife to let me go to NYC for the Jennings fight then Vegas or Dallas for the potential Pac/Floyd fight (yeah, right)
