Stevenson-Jack might get moved to Toronto. That's cool because it means I will be able to go and will probably be cheap.

Super cool for ya'll but isn't air Canada Centre a pretty big arena? Seems risky to hold anything but a big superfight-i mean Stevenson vs Jack is a great fight but neither are proven draws-there.

Most importantly though: when else am I going to go to something like this?

The cofeature to GGG-Vanes was supposed to be the return of Chocolatito but that has been scrapped and will now be replaced by Ceclia Braekhus vs Kali Reis. It will be the first ever women's fight on network HBO (there have been women's bouts on pay per view cards) https://www.badlefthook.com/2018/4/26/17288200/golovkin-vs-martirosyan-cecilia-braekhus-to-fight-on-hbo

Yeah it does seem pretty random, but Toronto never has good fights and is full of rich idiots so I'm sure they'll manage

There's some boxing happening in Germany tonight with Arthur Abraham headlining against a Danish garbageman that got beaten so badly last time out against John Ryder in London back in October that most people assumed his career was over. But hey, when you're in the Sauerland camp it doesn't matter how bad you are. The only other name I know on there is Nieky Holzken and he's a kickboxer. Show starts around 18:00 local time and is shown on German TV. The main event starts around 22:30 and is also shown on Danish tv, but since they don't care about anyone else they don't want to show all the undercard matches, so I'll have to find a stream somewhere. It might be on some US station somewhere? I don't know if Sauerland has good connections in America. WBO International Super Middleweight Championship: Arthur Abraham: 76.2 kg Patrick Nielsen: 76.2 kg Light Heavyweight – 8 Rounds: Leon Bunn: 80.5 kg Tomas Adamek: 80.5 kg Super Middleweight – 8 Rounds: Nieky Holzken: 76.8 kg Bernard Donfack: 77.7 kg Super Welterweight – 6 Rounds: Abass Baraou: 69.5 kg Artur Mueller: 67.6 kg Cruiserweight – 8 Rounds: Kai Robin Havnaa: 90.0 kg Frank Bluemle: 91.0 kg Super Lightweight – 6 Rounds: Andranik Hakobyan: 67.6 kg Zoltan Szabo: 64.2 kg Super Middleweight – 6 Rounds: James Kraft: 76.2 kg Marco Miano: 73.5 kg Super Featherweight – 4 Rounds: Alshawa Abdulwahab: 57.8 kg Rolan Petrovics: 59.8 kg

Yea, I'm not ashamed to admit that the first was one of the most fun I've ever had watching boxing. Bellew was a massive underdog and I didn't care about either fighter so I loved cheering him on. Turns out he's quite a charismatic and intelligent chap as well.

IIRC Bellew broke his hand very early in the fight so it was a classic case of two cripples fruitlessly wailing on each other.

When Tony kicked that tablarone we should of all known it was a pure barn burner on the cards, you can't fake that kind of grudge.

If those things hold up I think it could be a really interesting bout (but I don't think they will, and I think Vasyl is going to take his soul just like he's done to everyone else) ozymandius1024 fucked around with this message at 16:14 on May 1, 2018 |

Skip My Posts posted:is linares gonna have anything for loma? i dont really know poo poo about him Despite the legitimate criticism of linares, he's legit as gently caress, hasn't lost since 2012 and is a weight division up. Even if it's a blow out, it's a world class competition.

Cigar Aficionado posted:Linares is legit, but Lomachenko is going to ruin him. This is where I'm at. He's obviously not as bad as everyone thought when his career was left for dead after losing to Antonio DeMarco and Yeyo Thompson but everything since show him for what he really is: a very good boxer who has flashes-but only flashes-of incredible craft but can't maintain over time and really is not all that powerful. But for what it's worth I don't imagine he'll quit so that's an improvement over Loma's recent fare.

The real significance of this fight is that at the end of the day loma will be a world champ in a division that Mike still holds belts in.

Skip My Posts posted:is linares gonna have anything for loma? i dont really know poo poo about him MMM Whatchya Say posted:Lomachenko is rightfully seen as one of the best fighters in the game but Linares isn't really given as much respect as he used to get. TLDR; Linares is a legit lightweight champ with good boxing ability and he's stronger, longer, taller and heavier than Lomachenko. If Loma makes it look easy it's because Loma is really good. Somebody said that Linares has a glass jaw and I don't quite think that's true, he's never been properly knocked out, he's had three ref stoppages though. It won't really matter because Loma doesn't really hit that hard with any single punch at super featherweight, he's not going to be downing an even bigger guy.
