    Anyone watch Lomachenko v. Linares on Saturday night?  Excellent fight!  It was pretty even til the KO in my opinion.  Linares got the first professional knockdown on Loma, but Loma got the hook to the liver for the kill a couple rounds later.  Great fight on both their parts!

    I watched bits and pieces of it. Great fight. Both men are great fighters. Boxing has been good the past couple years.

    Shocking loss for Kovalev this recent weekend. He gasses too early in fights anymore. I’d say he is at the end of his rope.

    Sad.  Saw the list of fighters by appearance and my favorite (RJ Jr) was on the most often.
    Damn, I loved the 90s into early 2000s boxing on HBO.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Showtime still does a great job, hopefully they pick up all the HBO fights.

    SUCKS HBO is giving the sport up. 

    Yeah, it would be good if Showtime picks up more fights, now.

    Pay-per View has killed this sport. I think i' only paid for a fight one time, and that was Tyson-Douglass. And, the ONLY reason i did i went to a friends house where a few of us chip in a few dollars a piece.

     That GGG VS Canelo Álvarez fight was going for what? $85 or $90? I don;t care how great the fight is, that is WAY too much money to charge for a Fight.

    That was one epic fight. I can't agree with the wank judges bias. But what a display of gentleman being gentleman  and having a proper fight. Wilder was out boxed and out classed but in the end had his 2 rounds. Missed every other punch he threw .
