  • I still haven’t figured out what ESPN+ is and nor do I care to. Sounds like another outlet to pay for fights that you really shouldn’t have to. I’ll pass on that. I wouldnt mind watching Christian Mbilli fight though! He’s another gun in the Super Middles. Comparing any fighter to Mike Tyson is a curse and uncreative, but he does have a very similiar style. He uses a lot of upper body movement and quick pivots, punching from all angles and crowds and attacks his opponents with an all out head/body assault. He should be able to get Vaugn Alexander out early then target some of the bigger names in the division.

    • I agree Kris. Mbilli has a lot of potential and he’s already got some very high rankings.

    • I have a bundle that includes ESPN+, Disney+ and Hulu for $12.99 a month. It’s awesome. ESPN plus has a lot of live sports And UFC fight’s as well as On demand. It is worth it…

      • Agree quite worth it… healthy competition with DAZN…both good for boxing… hopefully both see the advantage in providing an affordable app that shows combat sports including boxing …..

  • I think is time to see Makhmudov in a big card in USA, Dillian Whyte could be a great matchup
