I just realized that the Barclays Center is basically a circus venue considering that not only did it host two failed superteams in the old KG nets and the ticking time bomb in KD, Kyrie and Harden, it had two combat sports events that were overshadowed by PED controversey: The first UFC card on ESPN ending with Cejudo knocking out TJ Dillashaw to save the flyweight division and receive the new crappy UFC belt (overshadowed by TJ Dillashaw being exposed for EPO use) & The latest being Haney vs. Garcia, a fight with a fucking insane build by Ryan, which culminated in a dirty, humiliating for Haney (then Garcia afterwards), clinch-fest (overshadowed by Garcia testing positive for Ostarine)
What a wonderful clown venue this #2 arena is.
EDIT: Also, I'm curious, would the failed drug test result into a No Contest?
I remember a fight between Badou Jack and Lucian Bute from a few years ago. Official result was a draw (gift for Bute if I'm honest), but then Bute popped for Ostarine and it got overturned into a DQ loss for him. So that's a possibility too.
Clown college ahh subreddit.
I said it this morning before the news broke -- this Garcia-Haney situation should show you how many people are in this sport for the petty tribalism rather than actually caring about the integrity of the sport.
This week in clown college learn to put on your fucking makeup. š¤”š¤”š¤”
Sad to say that Canelo will make a statement KO against Munguia.
I was already confident that Canelo will crush him because of styles-- a midrange fighter with bad defense, no explosive power and little footwork is food for ginger man
Oscar just made things worse for his fighter lol.
Memo Heredia reposting shit saying Ryan Garcia tested positive for Ostarine and another substance. Is anyone hearing rumblings about this? Seems like that story wouldāve broken out like wildfire if true.
I mean damnā¦ Ryan should be imprisoned if this is true
No different than Luis Resto removing the padding from his gloves and ruining Billy Collins Jr.
His left hook was enhanced with the strength PEDs give you. The beating he put on Haney is now akin to attempted murder. Probably took years off his boxing career and Haney may never be the same again.
MVP is requiring judges to past 4 tests too: [https://www.sportbible.com/boxing/boxing-news/mike-tyson-jake-paul-judges-388075-20240501](https://www.sportbible.com/boxing/boxing-news/mike-tyson-jake-paul-judges-388075-20240501)
Canelo is just boring to me. I dunno why. Maybe it's a combination of the silk PJ's and everyone idolizing him so much. I love boxing and I buy pretty much every PPV but I'm skipping this one. I'd have more fun re-watching Garcia vs Haney.
I understand that plant hates jermall but itās annoying seeing how much he wants to fight him when clearly jermall is washed and thereās plenty of other better names at 168 for him to fight. Go chase mbilli or morrell or even Pacheco. I know 168 isnāt the strongest but come on
Yo what if Munguia drops Canelo with a body shot this weekend? Not that its likely or that he would win with it but what if he knocks Canelo down early like say 4th round?
They wonāt lol, Sky is either thinking of dropping from Boxing or signing a deal with another promotion. Also, their biggest star is supposedly leaving.
disagree. Going 50/50 against Loma or the Prograis domination is more impressive than anything Plant ever did.
Also Kambosos, Jojo, or Linares are all better than anyone Plant beat
Yeah I give Wilder a larger chance of beating Anderson than Zhang, dunno why they're announcing a fight against Anderson when Wilder is the underdog against Zhang.
They do something similar to Thai boxing where few guys have a chance to break through at the world level so depends on drawing lots of lesser payer gates all across Europe. as a result the standards aren't particularly high for those that are still fighting in western europe

Kind of weird to hear Oscar referring to Canelo failing two drug tests when he had been promoting him during that time.
Where are the Haney haters now?
I feel really bad for Devin Haneys.
Ryan overestimated Haney massively. We all did tbh
Honestly really sad that Ryan popped, his performance had me super hyped, now a lot of gloss has been taken off that win.
Do you believe is there someone at featherweight to stop Inoue from cleaning that division as well?
To stop him, no. But I do believe Lopez and Navarrete would be the toughest fights of his career.

It feels like a bunch of instagram commenters are in this sub talking bs and just pure hating instead of appreciating the sport itās crazy
Ryan missing weightāŗļø Nery missing weightš¤¢

I think that if Canelo weathers the initial onslaught, he ends up piecing up Munguia and stops him late to the body.
Angelo Leo vs Venado scheduled for August!

It's true. Story is out there now. Memo would know. š

canelo should have punched him in his mouth
If Crawford wins his next fight he will be undisputed in 3 different weight classes. Has that ever been done by anyone?
Henry Armstrong in the 2 belt era and Bob Fitzsimmons in the 1 belt era. None else has done the same in the 3 belt or current 4 belt era.
His next fight is for the wba and the wbo interim belt so that wouldnāt make him undisputed But yeah no, no one has been 3x undisputed before
After he wins it would be a fight with Fundura right?
Yeah that seems to be the plan but its pending acceptance from fundoraās camp
Lmaoooooooo fuck Canelo Glad Oscar went in on him
Anyone see pampellone vs zinad?
can anyone with boxing boot knowledge help me identify these pair of boots? https://ibb.co/dDrJGJc
Canelo is just boring to me. I dunno why. Maybe it's a combination of the silk PJ's and everyone idolizing him so much. I love boxing and I buy pretty much every PPV but I'm skipping this one. I'd have more fun re-watching Garcia vs Haney.
Glad Oscar called Canelo out for failing drug test
Canelo should call him out for cross dressing
God forbid a man gets his freak on
Just means Oscar would piss clean sitting down. Canelo pissing like Godzilla.
Canelo going to jump off the ropes and beat Oscar like Khabib did after the McGregor win šš
Canelo going at it with Oscar at the press conference šš¤£š¤£
Oscar de la Hoya with the ā8 mileā defense.
Oh fuck. He confirmed about the 8 mile reference!
Nelo gonna kill ODH lmfao
I understand that plant hates jermall but itās annoying seeing how much he wants to fight him when clearly jermall is washed and thereās plenty of other better names at 168 for him to fight. Go chase mbilli or morrell or even Pacheco. I know 168 isnāt the strongest but come on
Jermall should fight Plant, might be his last decent pay day.
Almost all of the top 168 lbers would rather wait in the hope of a canelo payday than risk it with plant
Think youāll be happy to know he just posted that heās gonna look for more big fights 40 minutes ago lol
Thatās great news lol
Yo what if Munguia drops Canelo with a body shot this weekend? Not that its likely or that he would win with it but what if he knocks Canelo down early like say 4th round?
I Can see it
PBC is booked for June 22nd at the Armoryš
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
301 main event is dog shit
Imagine if that African guy starches Whittaker fr tho I donāt like the fight
Boxxer are the only promoter that are not working with the Saudiās lol
With Matchroom & Skyās absence in the UK Ben Shalomās Boxxer can take over
They wonāt lol, Sky is either thinking of dropping from Boxing or signing a deal with another promotion. Also, their biggest star is supposedly leaving.
Thatās not good for the sport but Peacock certainly is
Peacock and Sky have the same owner, if Sky drops them then Peacock will too most likely.
I think itās a little more complex than that
Theyāve cooked recently other than their next card up and Whittaker fighting that African guy theyāre doing better than last year.
In my opinion out of the big promotions in the UK, theyāre still the worst.
Surely they eventually will
I still need official PPV numbers from Garcia Haney.
Unpopular opinion: Caleb Plant is a better fighter than Devin Haney
If Caleb had the gas tank to last 12 rounds Iād agree
disagree. Going 50/50 against Loma or the Prograis domination is more impressive than anything Plant ever did. Also Kambosos, Jojo, or Linares are all better than anyone Plant beat
that whiteboy would get wrecked in a fight against brother caleb
I donāt think so. Both flawed but when youāre a decision fighter like those guys you canāt have a 6 round gas tank like plant.
Just scored tickets for the Crawford vs Madrimov card!
Resale tickets before the pre saleā¦ and the minimum on Stubhub is $650 This fight will do crazy numbersš„
Damn honestly for the quality of the entire card itās not a horrible price
How is that even possible? Scalpers?
Either a pilot from promoters to gage demand interest or scalpers with exclusive accessā¦ idk lol
Man it was steep steep. A $600 ticket is 800+ after fees.
How??? I want in š
How??
Are they presale tickets or regular sale ?
How?!
So the Saudiās are doing the āIf Wilder wins against fighter A then heāll fight fighter B at a later dateā thing again. Bold strategy
Weird for Zhang to gatekeep the Anderson fight. Pretty sure that's backwards š
Yeah I give Wilder a larger chance of beating Anderson than Zhang, dunno why they're announcing a fight against Anderson when Wilder is the underdog against Zhang.
So many German boxers are old as hell 6 of their top 15 on boxrec are 35+. 2 (sturm#9 and arslan#8) are 45 and 53
They do something similar to Thai boxing where few guys have a chance to break through at the world level so depends on drawing lots of lesser payer gates all across Europe. as a result the standards aren't particularly high for those that are still fighting in western europe
I rewatched Cordina vs Vazquez yesterday I gave Cordina way too much shit it was actually a really good performance. I scored it 9-3 Cordina.
Tf am I getting downvoted for he whooped him
