  • I usually try and cheer the sons of fighters I grew up with, but Campbell doesn’t have half the power his old man had. If he can’t beat Flint, who was beaten in his last fight, what chance does he have against a live contender?

    • It’s usually a tough act to follow. The dad’s go through the pain, frustrations and suffering of a rough life and find boxing as an out(common amongst the majority of the great ones). By the time the sons come around, life is good and the foundation that build their father’s is missing, which results in careers that are not as impressive.

  • Prograis needs to be removed from the top 10, and Kamala needs to be removed from The White House.

    Prograis blew his lead. I guess his palms were sweaty, after eating some horrible spaghetti. Anyhow, Prograis & Kamala both need to go on Indeed and find a new job.

    • This is a boxing forum. If you want to tell people your political views do it on a political forum.

      • I read about boxing in his post. What gives? He spoke about a boxer and used an analogy pertaining to politics. Perfectly within the parameters of this forum. Now, I’m guessing if he spoke the other way, you would have no problem, right?

      • Liking her own posts over and over is sad. She has some serious mental problems.

        • Posting blatant falsehoods in public and liking them is not only idiotic, but ignorant.

    • I agree. Only a weak homosexual man would support Cackling Kamala. Vote TRUMP 2024!

      • Trump isn’t a racist. That’s why he has more Black and Latino support than any other republican in several decades.

    • You must be a self hating black person? Ironically, you hate yourself even more than Trump hates black people.

      • And you, a very ignorant misinformed person if you think trump is a racist. He could be a lot of things, but racist is not one of them.

        • TRUMP IS A CONVICTED RAPIST / RACIST! His orange makeup is perfect for prison when he becomes the bitch of a bad ass black man!

    • Why don’t you shut the f*ck up with politics and keep it to boxing you dumbass ignorant bitch. Nobody needs or appreciates your moronic political ad ins. Fool.

      • Then don’t read them. If you don’t read it then you will not post about it or you could ignore it the same way you ignore basic common sense.

  • You trying to recite Eminem so why don’t you lose yourself to the political forums where you belong. Stick to the boxing comments on here.

  • Hopefully the posters on here finally realize Prograis is done. Done done donetty done

    • It’s not like he’s not competitive, but he’s been well beaten his last two outs. I don’t think he’s ever gonna be championship level barring a chance at a fringe title. He’s probably at a point where he’d struggle against any top 10 guy.

  • Time for Prograis to retire, relax and enjoy Louisiana cooking. Down the road, I hope to see Catterall/Hitchins.

  • Catterall is nothing special but he did the job against s faded ex champ the way Haney did.. good matchup for Haneys comeback fight. Catterall merits a title shot

    • I’ve seen Catterall fight three or four times and every time it’s a good, competitive fight. I thought Prograis did his best today, but Catterall was just too precise with his punches down the stretch. All in all, it was a good scrap.

  • Prograis is a great fighter, but he if he would have just closed the gap with his hands up behind the jab he would have won easily. If would have studied Azumah Nelson he would be a much better fighter. That low hand stance got him caught. All that head movements without punching…He is a good pressure fighter but leaves himself open throwing wild shots from way too far out. Catterall is a good fighter, but I see so many flaws in fighters now. I see so much that isn’t being executed by new school fighters that it seems they fail to work on. Prograis is such a good fighter who should have walked right through this guy. Not sure why a pressure fighter walks forward with his hands at his waist. No point.

  • Catteral has one of the worst boxing styles to watch. I adore boxing but i’ll read about his next fight unless he’s fighting a monster

  • Prograis may be passed it but I think it might be more that he cannot handle the styles of the movers he has been fighting recently. I would not mind him against Matias.

  • meh.. Catterall will always be a kinda ok fighter. He doesn’t commit to the jab. He is almost a counterpuncher. He waits too much. He could be really good. He moves well, but incorrectly. He punches hard enough but now when he should. He is almost aggressive but isn’t. I root for him because he really is undefeated. He wants to fight better people but has never been connected. Ne doesn’t have a title in a world where people like Rolly can get them. Yeech. Catterall will be used as a b side soon for some “star” who wants a name win. Boxing for all it’s good is a teeter totter where the bad weighs exactly even with the good. Just two people sitting on a piece of lumber staring at each other. Prograis never paid attention to what “boxing” is. He actually ran at Catterall like a sister pissed at her younger brother for eating the last of the fruit loops. He must at one time known how to throw a punch with 24 knockouts but he is painful to watch. Catterall should have stood and traded and taken this mouthy nub out. By going 12 with Prograis he didn’t do anything for his “career” nor his next fight hype.
    Nuff said..

  • Jack Catterall’s journey continues. I didn’t expect the knockdowns but I did expect him to win. Regis Prograis at 34 is going to be a gatekeeper. He will likely not go any higher in his career. For a guy who started boxing in the lower weight divisions at the age of 17, not too shabby at all.
