Essential The Official Boxing Random Thoughts Thread...All boxing heads ENTER.

[GREENandYELLOW]

Would love to see JCC Froch but its NOT RIGHT that Ward is basically frozen out his own division ...that's his reward for being the best. Legal issues aside, he needs to be and deserves to be given star treatment.

I love this sport but until there is one governing body, it will never return to the mainstream.

If you think the BCS was f'd in college football, boxing is being triple penetrated with 14 stds each dikk.

I agree that Ward is the best fighter in the division completely undisputed...but it is a sport and relies upon fans. You cannot control who fans like and who they don't. Ward deserves to be recognized, acknowledged, and promoted as the best in the division - but that has nothing to do with how people accept his marketability.
I feel for Ward, because he deserves any fight he is so inclined to take...but the hard truth is that Froch-JCC is much more interesting, will be more entertaining, and more profitable than a Ward matchup with either fighter.

I don't know man. Seems like they throwing Rios in there kinda tough. Chaves is big as fukk with good power. Dude was also giving Thurman all he could handle before he got stopped. Rios doesn't have fight changing power like #OneTime and he hardly ever tires to outbox dudes even though he has decent boxing skills.

.

I was just about to post the same thing even tho he lost I was acutally impressed with diego in that fight,rios team prob think theyre going to run over dude...nope

I understand that, Geale is good, but not upper echelon... what I am saying is....they are milking it. Same thing with Kovalev. Its not as difficult to make fights as these guys make it seem. At this point and time yes, its the best out there, but what about the last 12 months? Adama, Stevens, Macklin, Geale are all on the same basic level or close to it. MW does suck though.

dawg most of the top light heavies fight for showtime..network promotional issues are to blame..Kovalev wants those fights..for now they are going after forfana..

It's funny because Skip stans Floyd like Floyd wasn't fighting in the Impact Zone™ before making that heel turn. :

May was STILL in the impact zone with those Ortiz/Guerrero fights...

Why do I have this feeling that GGG is going to steamroll Geale and Fletcher is going to give Danny Jacobs hell...................
