They had tickets that were like $354, but couldnt find enough for our group so we had to buy $500 dollar tickets. It was mostly sold out by like 1:35. There are now only 1k+ tickets left, probably about 100-175 of em

I got to say Gamboa really impressed the poo poo out of me by almost going the distance with a torn achilles. That's some loving heart and a hell of a tape job.

Yeah he put up a good fight. Lots of grit

Someone posted what they claimed were the odds for the fight and they favored logan paul. If correct, you'd make good money betting on Antonio Brown. He's a world class athlete

If AB fights Logan Paul I'll make good money betting on AB to whup his rear end.

lol i assumed USD since most people on this site are american but if you want to do singaporean dollars or whatever i don't give a poo poo


i think the more astute question is 'why am i having a giant hissy fit at this guy when all he said was 'the effect should even the odds'?' but i said i'd let you make your own odds and i stand by that but i'm going to be lolling if it's even money because you've spent days getting very mad at me that culminated in a demand for money. luckily i don't think you take getting laughed at very well.

Logan gonna get whomped

yeah i'm sure once he does a million rocky montages and the next 10 weeks in the goku gravity chamber he'll be a changed man.

I mean, the dude has worked out at a professional level for literally his entire life. He has contacts in the industry that I doubt a vlogger has (no matter the money) and access to insane drugs that only someone who's been in the NFL system has.

Logan Paul will get gassed faster than AB.

that's cool man i've already had this conversation just hit the little question mark thing under my avatar, skip to the last page and pretend i'm talking to you.

I think you severely underestimate the amount of effort it takes to get into the NFL, let alone be an elite player in the NFL.

Its okay though, enjoy losing your 100 dollarydoos

The funniest thing about this is that I don’t think either of us have seen AB play a game of football.

Hahahaha. The good thing for you is that Antonio Browns workout regime is well documented.

just so we're absolutely clear, you know he's going to be in a fist fight right? he's not going to be taking part in a series of strength and agility tests while people in white coats peep his sick vertical leap and write down the big number while raising their eyebrows and nodding - you know this right?

Lmao, yes. And AB gotta whup dat rear end worse than Adrian Peterson

Speaking of betting if you put $100 on this banana guy you'd be cashing out a grand. drat. Gonna make some riskier bets when I'm in Vegas for Fury Wilder now.

Wilder was forcing his right from the knockdown on. Shoulda been stopped way sooner. I think wilders done after this, hell rematch, but I don’t see him doing any better.

Ninth is an insane gambler and I can’t believe his luck this trip

Wilder's costume was one of the stupidest things I have ever seen. Normally tyson looks the most ridiculous but some how he didn't.

Fury’s ring walk was amazing. I was laughing so hard in the arena. It was soooooo slow. I loved it.

Wilders I made the same joke loudly three times that he looked like a teenage mutant ninja turtles villain and no one laughed any of the times. It’s hard making hilarious jokes that go unloved sometimes

Looks like Top Rank has put out a statement that they will go forward with their next two events in the Hulu arena in MSG with no fans in attendance.

So not outright cancelling anything yet

So Illinois just got hit with a "shelter in place" order so I am going to have a lot more time on my hands. Between that and content providers releasing a lot of full fights on Youtube to keep us from killing each other for now what better time ,to have watch parties of old (ish) and classic (ish) fights. Perhaps we can do a watch party in Discord. Anyone else down?

Yeah, I’d be down for sure.

ESPN is showing Wilder-Fury II among other boxing. Wilder was never quite right after the headshot in round 3. Dude was just falling down.

I swear there was more clinching than punching. Is that normal for most boxing matches?


I remember a previous GGG-Canelo fight had some questionable judging which resulted in a draw. Was that fight 1 or 2 case the draw was several years ago and I don't remember any seeing any adverts for a rematch since.


Yeah wilder got his ear hosed up. He was bleeding pretty badly from it.

Clinching/manhandling was part of fury’s strategy.

The first fight was the draw. But GGG won it is the consensus

That series has been in development for ages, apparently.

I watched the Ken burns docu on jack Johnson like a year ago and was convinced that it would make an amazing hbo series. I shoulda written something, I could be a billionaire now because of that idea!!!

Man I loved this event. The music was great, they should have more concerts inbetween boxing matches. Everyone complaining about it, what would you have preferred ? The commentators talking about who tyson was?

I think triller did a great job producing this event. I mean look at how this thread exploded with comments, whens the last time that happened? Were there any events like this that got this kind of eyes on it other than Fury v. Wilder 2?

I am really interested to see how the event sold. I have a feeling that it's going to be one of the highest selling PPV's this year

Edit: From an Mma mania article the CEO of FITE TV basically attributed it to half buying it for Tyson-Jones and the other half for Jake Paul-Nate Robinson
