The Dirrell fight was entertaining but I didn’t think either looked very great. Also, after the Badou Jack cut, it’s hard to look at that stoppage as reasonable

DAZN is making some pricing changes.

$99.99/year or $19.99/month

Current users are grandfathered into $9.99/month for another year.

I can see the standing count in the 3rd because it's a championship fight, but I dunno why he started counting when Crolla faceplanted. Guys don't normally get up from that.

If he was competent he would’ve stopped it on the ropes the first time. That flurry against the ropes was so obviously the end of the fight.

The whole thing felt like Joshua didn't want to fight Ruiz and the post-fight was basically an "I told you this would happen, Eddie" vibe.

good for him. he brutally knocked out the consensus best heavyweight on a month's notice while working as a part time security guard and looking like a full time security guard. get paid.

Yea and he’s intelligent enough to realize a) they need a rematch to beat him very badly and b) they’ll want it on their terms, so he can be a dick about it.

For all of the poo poo people give Days Inn and ESPN+ both services total out to 300 a year paying month to month. So far PBC has planned 6 Pay Per views (Pac/Broner, Pac/Thurman, Spence/Garcia, Spence/Porter, Garcia/Garcia, Wilder/Ortiz 2). That's over $400 for 6 fights all of which are broadcast main events during HBO's prime years

And if you did the annual plans, you’d be paying $150 for DAZN and ESPN+

The time McGirt stopped it is probably the same time I would have tbh. He was getting beat handily but he was still firing back and it wasn't until the 11th that I felt like he was just in there going through the motions. He just looked overmatched the first 10 rounds, but he was still giving plenty. In the 11th he seemed to stop firing back much and what he was firing was not even remotely hard enough to do anything, so I can get where McGirt was coming from 100%.

And I agree with the above most that almost any other trainer would've just let him get wrecked for another three minutes.

I think it’s mostly that no one films sweatshop slaves dying of heatstroke or logs falling on lumberjacks and we don’t throw parties to watch it happen and cheer while it does

No, we just buy the tv we watch it on from there, or the laptop used to stream it and the roku or fire stick the laptop is streaming to or any number of other things in the room where the watch party is being held.

Marching Powder posted:

jesus christ. how bad did kovalev look against yarde?

If Yarde had gone to the body from the beginning, he probably would’ve stopped him.

Yarde waited until the middle rounds to go to the body and by then he basically had one round of gas left.

But Kovalev looked like he wanted to piss his pants from the first hard body shot he took until he realized Yarde could barely lift his own arms.

Not watching but I saw a pic of the cut, was it from a butt or something I guess?

Clean punch caused the cut but at the end of the last round after the bell, Wallin reached back and swiped across the cut to try to open it more.

I’m predicting Joshua’s on skates all night, the fight totally sucks and Ruiz wins a close decision that Joshua and Eddie cry about.

One of these guys looks comfortable boxing patiently and the other is Anthony Joshua.

Truther Vandross

Ruiz needs to fight a little dirty. Joshua is a mental midget and a couple questionable shots would get in his head incredibly bad.

AJ clearly won that fight but it didn’t really change my opinion of him at all.
