I am watching the PBC prelim feed for the Davis/Martin & Benavidez/Gvozdyk card. Since this card is the 100th boxing card at MGM since it opened in 1994, they have a long and impressive montage of all the great moments and stars from the past 30 years. Really, really well done.

If Davis/Martin was any indication, Loma outboxes Tanks for the first several rounds only to get absolutely demolished in the late rounds once Tank gets dialed in.

So Ryan Garcia has been banned from the WBC based on him being a racist piece of shit.    It is clear that he has some serious mental issues as well as being a racist piece of shit

Right now Dana White must be salivating at their next big star to push.   They only need about 5 minutes of his shit to make him the most popular guy in UFC

Shields became the first boxer since (and second ever) Roy Jones Jr. to win Middleweight and Heavyweight titles. 

Is there anymore female heavyweight titles? If not, she becomes the first boxer to win undisputed titles in four divisions I believe.

Several years ago, there were actual female "heavyweight" champions. Problem was, much like now, there was only three women in the division if that. Honestly, Shields is more a natural junior middleweight. For her to go up to whatever weight necessary to do this tells you about the talent above 154-160 being pretty much nonexistent. That and stopping someone that easily when she herself is far from a puncher. Unfortunately, all the talent in women's boxing is concentrated 3 or 4 weight classes (depending on where she chooses to fight) down. Those weight classes are kinda top heavy as well TBH, but definitely not as barren as anything past junior welter and/or welterweight.

Wow, Dubois! What a finish. 

Daniel Dubois put together a performance of a lifetime in dispatching Anthony Joshua. Then at the very end, avoided what could have been a disastrous sequence where AJ stunned him by hitting a beautiful counter right hand to put AJ down again and down for good.

Eddie Hearn will be driven to drink seeing Anthony Joshua battered like that. It was a must win for AJ.

It's years too late but I'd like to see Joshua/Wilder. It'll come down to who lands first. It's going three rounds or less. I'd fancy Wilder with the power he has but the trilogy with Fury was a life changing beating particularly the third.

Fury v. Joshua if Fury loses the rematch would be a good match up. 

It's a shame when fights happen post prime way too late. I'd still see both.
