That Stevens fight was terrible, but i've seen Dirrell and been REALLY impressed. Ridiculous handspeed and good power. I'll watch hoping hedecides to finally sit on his punches and fight back, because if he does he'll be VERY entertaining.

I'd like to see that fight as well
I think its set on the condition that both fighters win

 

[gunna get it]

Did I miss the shobox already?

 

[dako akong otin]

pulling for 2 lbs!

 

[theprofessorofpugilism]

Now THAT was the Andre Dirrell i've been a fan of! That dude just straight smoked Hanshaw. Hanspeed combinations, and he was dropping bombs. Getting rid ofHanshaw in 5 is REAL impressive. Can't wait to see where Dirrell goes from here, the 168 lb. division is great.

That Dimarco kid was entertaining too watch too. I don't know about him being a champ, but dude is entertaining as all hell and would make for some GREATfights with most of the other guys at 135.

 

[kicks off]

I'm hoping for a BIG UPSET tonight. DLH will be making his presence known from the start, and will try and break little Stevie Forbes confidence down. DLHis too damn physically big for Forbes, but if Forbes can hang on and box he can seriously walk away with the upset win. DLH will look desperate at timesbecause he's in front of his hometown, and would like to close the show with a KO. this is a tune-up before he fights Money Mayweather and there's noway Forbes was chosen for 12 rds of sparring. Forbes was chosen so DLH can look dangerous and win with a KO so a rematch with Mayweather can draw someinterests for another PPV fight. which is the reason I'm hoping for Forbes to win, there's no need for a rematch between DLH & Mayweather.

It is and I swear to God if you put Paulie in that avy and he loses I'll whine until next year

 

[theprofessorofpugilism]

Watch it be Forbes of all fighters to break String's curse. String, are you actually rooting for 2 pounds, or are you just trying to jinx Forbes for De LaHoya?

 

[you big dummy]

didn't even know these two were fighting until someone mentioned it during the kentucky derby

oscar will probably take this one

 

[lesgodsonc0]

What's good w/ the undercards for Golden Boy promoted cards lately?

Had the Peterson bros signed with G.B., we would've saw them onundercard...televised.

Nicole S......, lead singer of the PussyCat Dolls.

Alright boxing fans, anything particular I should be looking for in this fight to make me feel like I know @++ is going on?

How much are tickets to these types of fights? I ask only because I heard it mentioned that DLH stepped in somehow to get a certain amount of the tickets tobe below $75, even as low as $25.

 

[4wrestling]

Stevie got a few good shots in there to end round 1.

 

[gunna get it]

De la hoya' fights are normally super expensive.
And on pay per view


I think oscar's career is over. He's lucky this is forbes and no one else

 

[4wrestling]

3-0 DLH, but Forbes is hanging tough.

That's exactly what I'm thinking. If this is all he's gonna have for Floyd come Sept. it's gonna be ugly.

 

[4wrestling]

DLH finally took control in round 6

 

[gunna get it]

De la pollo is beyond slow. Now. He can't land vs forbes.

God, if ur reading this, please let oscar sign on to fight cotto

 

[el producto79]

HBO is on some real BS. They're praising DLH for his vicious combo punching while the replay is showing clearly that he landed 1 of 8 punches.

I know they gotta hype up Oscar for future PPV, but come on.

 

[4wrestling]

PBF will be at least a 4-1 favorite this time around.
