Whittaker acting cunty at the weigh in! Really he is not doing anything worse than other fighters, but because of his one big cunty episode, now everything looks bad. lol

Extra lol with the Budweiser light over his head :rofl:

No idea how the fuck this is a main event. Apparently Cameron got paid big time to agree to 10 instead of the 12rds that was in his contract. Whittaker acting like a bad man, can’t crack an eggđŸ€·â€â™‚ïž

Welcome back!

Schedule;

April 26th; Benn vs Eubank (in 60k stadium, London)
May 2nd; Ryan Garcia vs Rolly, Haney vs Ramirez, Teo vs Barboza (In Times Sq with Jim Lampley commentating).
May 3rd; Canelo vs Scull In Saudi
May 4th; Inuoe vs Cardanes in Vegas

But, by far the biggest news in boxing, is that Dana White, Nick Khan, Ari Emmanuel and Saudi’s Turki have joined forces and are going to try and turn boxing into a UFC. Getting deals with Netflix and ESPN. It will take a long time, but they are going to crush. Not going to be working with sanctioning bodies etc.

They have been stalling for a while. There is some big unannounced card for London, Wembley, 90k fans in July.

It is either;

Fury vs AJ
Usyk vs Dubois II
AJ vs Dubois II
Usyk vs Fury III

Or a bunch on the same card. But they are stalling. It is rumoured to be big.

Bakole fights Efe Ajagba on the Canelo card, and Jarell Miller fights Fabio Wardley in a few weeks.

Also, Canelo fights Bud Crawford in Sept on Dana’s debut boxing show.

Awesome thanks brother

I’m not sure how Dana is going to do in boxing. He can’t bully boxers like UFC fighters

Yeah, it will be tougher, but they will gradually gain market share with Turki’s $. It will take a long time. 5-10 years. And maybe it will never be totally controlled as the UFC is, but I think they will get control of most if it.

Turki will pay more for all the new star boxers. And if other promoters can’t get new stars they won’t be able to compete. I can imagine, after 3, 5, 7 years, TKO will buy out Golden Boy, Top Rank, etc. Like they did Pride, Strikeforce, WEC.

Also, Dana is getting Trump to amend the Ali Act.
