  • I might go check this out, a great excuse to visit ATL. Triller did a nice job with the entertainment, not with the commentary. Not sure why Snoop got so many rave reviews.

    • You thought so? I was so annoyed by the poor quality and the very long musical interludes. I honestly couldn’t stand it.

  • Welcome to boxing in 2021, where the biggest cards are people who don’t know how to box and geriatrics. Fun Fact: Tyson Jones outsold Fury Wilder. If that doesn’t show you the sport is in bad shape… I’m not sure what does.

    • Excellent point! Loved it!

      The word “entertainment” today in full contact sports is a much broader term. Better? (Snicker) My theory? People will do anything to make a dollar and fans will buy anything for a fix! Have a great day today!!!

      I am sure Jake Paul will think he can beat Fury next since his Youtube channel will have 3 million [ high school kid] views saying he can do it! LOL, LOL

  • These oddball match-ups are indeed garbage. But boxing is doing just fine. The fact there’s room for circus acts is a sign of good health, not the usual boring laments of the sport on life support or receiving “another black eye”.

  • Cant wait, quality card. Main event Paul is a legend in the making / he has dedicated himself to the game. He has the fighting spirit to go on to change not only boxing but the world. Some might laugh but his following is unlike the following of any “boxer” he is a champion under dog and someone who will change the game forever.
