So, I like boxing, but don't know anything about it. Is there some equivalent of Fight Pass for boxing? An online library of fights? Obviously, not all of them, but a decent chunk/cross section?

If you're not sure what to look up just check out ring magazine fights of the year for a while, I think most of them are on youtube. e: Well the relatively recent ones, I guess those go back to the 40s or something? Haha, oh, the 20s. Yeah you probably won't find those.

I think Showtime does, too, but I haven't really dug into its archives yet.

thehappyprince posted:loma vs rigo could be happening. please, god if you're out there.. Sounds like he's either going to fight Rigo or Salido at the end of the year, which would be great. Hopefully he ends up fighting both. Him and Rigo are arguably the two best pound for pound boxers on the planet (as well as maybe the two best amateurs ever), and it would be nice to see Lomachenko avenge his defeat to Salido, which he easily would in a rematch.

I would like to see the Salido fight but I highly doubt Salido would make it easy in negotiations since he rejected a career high payday. Rigo is a good fight. I am not sure what the details are on the weight but I am assuming it's at 130lbs. I maybe wrong.

2017 caught a case of the 2016 boxing Shawn Porter pulled out of his fight against Thomas Dulorme, Nicholas Walters pulled out of his fight on tomorrow's undercard, LSC vs Mares II was called off after negotiations broke down and Josh Warrington pulled out of the GGG-Canelo undercard. All in all, this is a drop in the pond compared to the flood of great fights 2017 has otherwise been giving us.

It's bullshit.

I had literally forgotten that Valero existed until just now, reading those posts. I'll probably go back to that.

It's been discussed in the ESPN thread but with Rigondeaux fighting Lomachenko this may be the best year for fights we've had in a long long time. Sounds like ESPN was able to put up the big purse Rigo has been holding out for. As it stands I think I'd have to pick Lomachenko to win, think his movement and activity will close the gap against Rigo, but with two really talented guys you never know how it'll turn out.

If the fight is at 130 I don't see Rigo faring well. Has he ever even fought above 122?
