– Outstanding.
– I only see 2 PPS (Pay-Per-Screw) broadcasts.
– Looking forward to Lubin / Fundora, and Benavidez / Lemieux (as long as both bouts last).
– A fine time to be a Boxing fan.
Wow, great lineup of fights: Top 3 I’d like to see1) Lublin/Fundora, 2) Charlo/Castano, and 3) Ennis/Clayton.
Mark my words, Clayton is going to be a handful for Ennis. Cant wait for it.
Charlo vs. retread Maciej Sulecki instead of Munguia. lol
There’s some really good stuff in there. Definitely want to see Lubin – Fundora, Benavidez – Lemieux and Magsayo – Vargas is another really good one. I think a sleeper in there might be Fulton – Roman. That should be a really good fight.
Charlo vs Castaño is legit!! Really looking forward to seeing this again! And why we’re not seeing Jermall Charlo vs Munguia is plain stupid! Shame on their promoters
Looks like PBC is going away from Fox and mostly Showtime now
glad to have a trifecta of Showtime/DAZN/ESPN+
you may not always get what you want every week but there is enough good matchups or prospects coming up if it isn’t a elite fighter topping the bill.
Some decent fights here, hopefully Charlo vs Castano 2 lives up to the first fight.
The exception is this stinker – Jermall Charlo vs. Maciej Sulecki
Middleweight is just a bad Division right now. And promoters failing to put together a fight most of us want to see just made it worse. Munguia vs Charlo was the best fight on paper at 160 and the promoters screwed us and the fighters.
Note: How bad is 160? GGG (an inactive shell of himself) is still legitimately a top 5 guy in it. And Andrade is just terrible to watch. Even his KO’s seem boring.
Charlo should be fighting GGG, that’s the middleweight fight that got away from the fans…would have been a good one.
looking forward to castano – carlo 2 my pick is castano winning the 2nd fight charlo loses the fight in the late rounds
