  • I was planning to go to this event because I am from South Philly and I haven’t been to live fights in a very long time. They had advertised tickets for “X” price which are not available. Then they added almost $40 in “fees” to the ticket price, so I’ll pass.

    • Gary do you get the complete DAZN and ESPN + cards on Firestick or just the main event? I have tried to get a replay of the Canello ppv card but only seem to get error messages haven’t tried for live ppv yet.
      I miss the Blue Horizon Tuesday Night Fights on USA. I once gave a ride to Russell Paltz from the arena in Vegas back to his hotel.

      • – I can only watch the event live. I do not believe that I can watch a replay (not sure if I ever tried).
        – I loved the Blue Horizon, even though it was located in “enemy territory” (and this is coming from a Temple University (also in North Philly) graduate.
        – I saw Omar Sheika, Antonio Tarver, etc there.
        – I never missed USA’s TNF. I thought that the announce team of O’Grady / Albert did a good job.
        – Take care.

  • K, I’ve seen a couple of Conto’s fights this far in his young career and obviously the kid has talent. That being said WTF does Caudle offer to his development? A record padding walkover win is the only answer…and Caudle knows that as well. Step it up time after this gimme

    • What does it do for his development?? The combined record of Caudle’s last 4 opponents is 42-0… 3 of those went the distance, including the last one against George Arias (15-0)… Caudle has been stopped 1 time in 16 fights. You don’t think he can fight? Conto is 7-0 with 10 rds of pro experience… and you see that as a “gimme” fight?? You don’t see that as a developmental fight?? On top of all that, the fight took place in a 16ft ring, which is unheard of for Heavyweights. Either you see Conto as an incredible phenomenon, which he may be, or you just don’t understand the sport… aka a “casual fan”… which is fine, nothing wrong with that. I’m just answering your question about WTF does a fight with Caudle do for his development.
