  • After watching Canelo manhandle Jaime Munguia I can see him knocking out big mouth Benavides and arrogant negro Crawford.

      • Im so sorry Col, will not call him arrogant anymore, i will refer to him as a proud negro.

      • IF and when Bud and Canelo fight, there will be excuses when Bud taxes him, there is always an excuse when Mexicans fight and lose, them and British are the biggest excuse finders in the game.

        • Another trolling surface breather. Clowns make excuses, men demand rematches. We see your red nose from here.

      • Same as Beterbiev against Canelo. Too much of a size difference. It’s a stupid fight to entertain.

    • You truly line up with pan worship. LOL!!! Not familiar? Read up on it.

    • your need to insult and put others down and race bait others is truly sad . please get some therapy and spiritual help. god bless.

    • “I can see him knocking out big mouth Benavides and arrogant negro Crawford.”
      – Remind me to slap your parents silly next time I see them for having such an ignorant dolt as a child…….

      • Gary, you reminded me of Gunnery Sergeant Hartman in Full Metal Jacket. Especially when he said “It looks to me like the best part of you ran down…….”

        Great lines. All applicable to Pan.

        • “Gary, you reminded me of Gunnery Sergeant Hartman in Full Metal Jacket.”
          – FMJ showed the most realistic USMC Parris Island bootcamp scenes in any movie that I have ever seen.
          – R. Lee Ermey, who starred as the Drill Instructor, and also did a show called “Mail Call”, was a former USMC DI, and you could tell.
          – I was a USMC recruit at Parris Island, SC, in 1982, which is why the boot camp scenes resonate with me.
          – The “blanket party” given to Private Pyle, was also given to me.
          – Take care.
          – Gary G.

          • No kidding Gary? Holy sh*t that’s crazy. The team took one for you and they showed their appreciation afterwards. Wild. Thank you for your service. My oldest brother served around the same time, but in the Army. Now that you bring this time period up, he was the first to tell me that the next conflict would be in the desert because of the training they were doing back then.

      • YOU ARE A BLOODCLAAT BADBOY ON THE KEYS, anybody can be that germ, i wouldn`t slap you if we meet, i would definitely chop your pussyclaat head off though, that is after boning your mum, not that she will turn me on, anybody who birth you can`t turn on anyone, i was going to say your woman, but i have a feeling that you are into men. I think you fancy Bud.

        • Roots, you behave exactly how Babylon wants you to behave: ignorant and full of f*ckry. You’re not scaring anyone on a boxing comment section. They will just laugh at you for your instability.

    • You are racist CRACKER! HATE is all you have…………….. Say that to Crawfords face!

    • Your an IGNORANT racist CRACKER! Hate is all you got say that to CRawfords face…………

      • No fan of pan, but substitute cracker is the same as saying the n word or the w word towards Hispanics, you dumass.

        • Concentrate on boxing and not belittling people- it’s all about the boxing….

    • PAN ,Say that to Crawfords face. Come out of hidding in your closet or are you afraid.

    • That comment is a straight Canelo nut hugging to the max comment..lol. .smh

    • Crawford may be arrogant, beats being ignorant, like you. Your life must suck

    • Say it to Crawfords face. No, you hide behind the safety of your computer in your closet…… PWT!

    • “Social media made y’all (YOU) way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it.” – Mike Tyson

    • After reading the insanity on the boards, Reddington put the focus back on the fights. Lol!!!

  • Unbiased opinions.

    Terence Crawford 153.4 vs. Israil Madrimov 154
    Crawford in 8

    Isaac Cruz 140 vs. Jose Valenzuela 139.8
    Cruz in 6

    Andy Ruiz Jr. 274.4 vs. Jarrell Miller 305.6
    Ruiz by decision.

    Jared Anderson 252.4 vs. Martin Bakole 284.4
    I cannot stand him, but I am going with him anyway.
    Anderson in 5.

    David Morrell 174.8 vs. Radivoje Kalajdzic 174.4
    Morrell in 3.

    Andy Cruz 134 vs. Antonio Moran 134.8
    Cruz is not a puncher, but he will win by TKO in 9 to go to 4-0 with 2 KO’s.

    • It doesn’t look like anyone in the heavyweight fights showed up in shape. Miller >300lbs, Bakole about 285. I thought both were live dogs against overhyped guys, but it’s doesn’t look like they put in the work.

        • Can’t you say that about almost every fighter? Don’t they all lose eventually?

        • Lol… guess not. Rule #1 of heavyweight boxing… never bet on the American. I don’t know how to explain it, but it feels like American heavyweights died at the end of the 20th century.

      • The Heavyweight division is a joke. Most guys fight way too infrequently and weigh in weigh too heavy. All a hw fighter has to do is look in half decent shape and fight more than once a year and they will get all hyped up (because most don’t). Once upon a time a 6-4 heavyweight weighed 225 lbs and had about 25 bouts on his record by the age of 25.

        • I think those days are gone. Jared Anderson was on that pace, but it seems like he’s fallen off a bit. Once he stepped up the level of competition and realized he couldnt dominate these guys like he was used to, he got discouraged. Started having problems outside the ring and lost focus. Lets see if he can get back on track.

  • If Anderson gets past 6-7 rounds, I am convince that he will beat Backoli, he may even stop him, I base this on the Yoka fight, Backolie dominated the first 6 rounds, from the 8th, he was gased and I thought if it was a 12 rounder, he would have had a hard time surviving. It was the same thing in the Hunter fight.

    • Bakole looks like nothing but a memory of the fighter that got KTFO by Hunter. Soft and flabby, it looks like he thinks all he has to do is show up and he’ll get paid.

      Oh yeah, that is all he has to do to get paid.

  • Everyone mentioned on the left side of the matchups will win except for Anderson. Bokole stops him(one hitter quitter) between 5 and 7. Anderson has no answer for Bokole’s straight right or hook nor does he have the savvy to keep Bokole at bay until he gasses.

    Heres to not eating crow tomorrow. Cheers.

  • pan you are just spreading your hate and racist ways. this is a boxing forum not a dumping ground . please get some help . god bless.

  • I’ll be in attendance tomorrow, so I’m hoping these two heavyweight fights will be somewhat competitive and exciting. Not sure what to expect in the main event, but I think everyone agrees Pitbull vs. El Rayo will be the fight of the night!

  • My people here are my picks: Crawford by KO: 7 Ruiz decisions big baby. Pitbull decisions Valenzuela. No doubt morrell knockouts hot rod probably by the third. I’m predicting an upset of Anderson, at least I’m hoping anyway. Moran don’t stand a chance against the Cuban. KO in the fifth. I will catch it on YouTube. Repdom, I expect to be be talking shite to you on Sunday. Get ready!

  • Once David Haye said that Eddie Hearn likes to show his face more than the fighters themselves, i tend to agree with him, i am beginning to find him irritating. I have a feeling that Bakole will gas out after 6´-7 rounds lets face it, the guy is a fat slob, who seems to get fatter for every fight. I doubt he does road work.

    • I know pan made a mistake with his comment but don’t say Crawford will beat canelo
      Charlo is bigger than Crawford and he did not make tickles to canelo
      Canelo is too big
      Is like Inoue vs Ryan Garcia at 140
      Or tank Davis vs David korrek at 168

      I don’t even k ow how promoters try to make this fight happens
      They same ridiculous like Olympic Games with transgenders

  • first all of the racist comments should warrant a ban of that poster

    so ill just give me picks
    Crawford by 8th tko
    Cruz by 7th rd KO
    Ruiz by 8th rd TKO
    Morrell by 6th rd tko
    Anderson by 6th rd tko

    good solid card to watch

  • They need a division for all these keyboard warriors to fight in cause they sure not discussing this post.

  • Wow, did not know Morrell was fighting on this card. Last minute addition? 175 is probably Morrells more natural weight. He weighed 171 or so for his first defense of his 168 title back in 2020. Kalajdzic is good and tough as nails, but not in Morrells league. I predict a 9th round stoppage for Morrell.

  • Yup, I stand by my prediction.

    So, in the event they fight, come at me b-words.

  • Just watched some more footage of Madrimov today. He is strong and can crack, but he is way too sloppy to beat Crawford. He throws looping shots, jumps in wildly at times, and his defense if pretty poor. His best asset if he is awkward. I see Crawford being very cautious the first four rounds, but after that Crawford will box circles around this guy, might get a stoppage because Madrimov gets reckless with his shots, especially as rounds go on in fights

  • Go Nordic! Have fun, if you are sitting close enough maybe you get some of Anderson’s blood on your shirt.

  • So Candy Ass Anderson just got KTFO.
    I love it. Great job, Bakole. A+

  • Anderson’s promoter Bob Arum just left ringside and walked slowly backstage after seeing his major investment getting beaten from pillar to post.

  • Devin Haney was just soundly booed walking through the crowd. He must not be too popular here in LA!
