The triller card and Valdez situation got me feeling a bit down about boxing. Is this truly a dying sport, or am I just being melodramatic.


Maybe a little bit of both.

If Wilder regained his belt in dramatic fashion in July, and Spence knocked out Pacman and got crowned as the next in August…you would not be posting this, trust me. Those fights not happening have left a gap. We haven’t had a big fight in a while. Understand the cause and you’ll realize it’s not all bad. Had those fights occured everyone would be saying we’ve had a good year. Combat sports has been quiet all summer. There hasn’t been a UFC fight with buzz in a long time either. If both those cancelled fights happened this summer there is no question boxing would be buzzing hard right now.


Second half has potential for boxing.

Crawford vs Porter supposed to be announced next week for Nov 20th in Vegas says Bob Arum

I guess it will be on ESPN/TR, apparently it’s not going to be double promoted?

Coppinger continues to be an embarrasment, "reporting" whatever entity is paying him to report. It would have taken him a few mintues to reach out and verify if what Kavanaugh said was true, of course that would require being a real reporter.
