  • I thought it was Fight Week for Spence vs Crawford, but I was wrong, just a mistake. If none of the following fights is done this year, means that some people have the mission to kill boxing: 1)
    Usyk vs Fury, 2) Canelo vs Benavidez, 3) Spence vs Crawford, 4)Tank Davis vs Ryan Garcia, 5) A fight between two of these: Shakur Stevenson, Devin Haney, Vasyl Lomachenko

    • I think we’ll get #1 and I think they’ll eventually agree on Haney – Lomachenko. I think hell freezes over before #3.

  • Wonder why Rice is favored here-looks like opponent to build up Vianelli’s record. Seems like Vianelli at -110 is a gift.

  • I agree Lucie, but I am afraid of the number 4 for an eventual meltdown from Ryan’s side

    • I didn’t even mention that one Burucho because I’m confident that it will NOT happen. Only when the bell rings to start the third round will I believe Tank and Ryan Garcia are fighting.

  • I think Efe’s career is fizzling out, looked very good early and then was exposed a bit when he stepped up the competition
