Well it wasn't Rocky Fielding but how does a guy a half foot taller let stubby Canelo walk in (literally) on him and fight inside. The only time he showed any movement was when he was clock watching and trying to go the distance in the last round. Every time I saw Smith before he fought...

I think Smith is a live dog, he has distinct height and reach advantages and has some pop in his punches, unlike Rocky Fielding who was a sitting duck for PEDnelo's power shots. This fight could play out similar to Kovalev vs Alvarez but Smith is much fresher than Kovalev who clearly was on...

Golovkin fights tonight on DAZN while PEDnelo fights tomorrow on DAZN too. Golovkin is a 25 to 1 betting favorite against his obscure Polish national opponent, while the fight should be a blowout, Golovkin is 38 and has been showing signs of aging for the last few years. People have...

The Negro Leagues were founded in 1920 and lasted until the 1948 as an official league, after that it was similar to the Harlem Globetrotters of the 1940's to early 60's where the teams were barnstormers who played local college teams had exhibitions or played benefits for charites etc... It's...

We missed this one but Charlie Pride died of Covid according to various news sites. He was a former Negro League player and failed MLB prospect(who now is an official MLB player) who became the first Black country music star. Aside from his obvious dye job he didn't look his age in recent...

They have stated they will add stats to players all time totals, what is scary is what kind of totals Negro League legends like Josh Gibson could have, he has supposedly 800+ home runs. I don't care what the PC line is but this league didn't have the depth of MLB, if it did Blacks would have...

Not so fast! Wilder has to be dealt with. Wilder is taking Arum/Fury to court for violating their contractual agreement. Arum has stated when the fight couldn't go off by December the contractual agreement was voided. I have a feeling Wilder will be bought off with a payment and a iron clad...

Yes in the 8th round which might have been the only round Pulev won he cuffed Joshua around a bit and Joshua had a slightly fearful look to his eyes(Joshua never had this before Ruiz, even when he was stunned by Whyte or on the verge of being stopped by Wlad). In the 9th Joshua was puffing a...

This happened nearly 40 years ago with Stanford vs Cal...

I think so as BB isn't under the hot seat to win now and a full rebuild wouldn't put him under the hot seat for years. I think by that time he will have passed the keys to the Caddie so to speak to either Daniels or possibly his son who is a fast rising coach.

I think playing Stidham was a win, win for the Patriots, if he was the goods he would be a long term solution, if he face planted the Patriots would be set up to grab a player near the top of the board. With the semi shot Newton they are in 7 and 9 to 9 and 7 territory which is a no mans land...

I was waiting for Area Required to post the card but he's been busy so I will pick up the slack. This fight while on the surface looks like it could be cake walk for Joshua there are doubts about his mental fortitude when he is hit after the embarrassing ko at the hands of future Biggest Loser...

I'm dancing in the street as Mr. Fake Woke is probably going to get his company dismantled by the FTC. Similar to the Robber Baron era Zuckerberg employed monopolistic practices to be an all encompassing company(by the way I still don't know what they legally do). The selling of personal data...

I recall a Japanese wide receiver getting a tryout by an NFL team and being cut and stashed on a now defunct European league team. Similar to Dwain Chambers and other sprinters the football skills of these type of players are going to be high school player level at best. Also unless they have...

I know it's a few days too late but we forgot to mention about the Nate Robinson debacle in the ring. I guess the censors approved of this line as Gimp said the line about Robinson thinking Jake Paul was "White Boy Rick" and I got this one....

The lower the level of football the more a primitive offense is effective. I remember my high school has an ethnic Italian qb who was built along the lines of a pared down Tony Siragusa and whenever the pocket collapsed (nearly every throwing down) he literally moved like an iceberg and carried...

Anybody that wasted 50 dollars on this PPV probably has too much money for their own good. There are many newly indigent people that are having problems paying bills and various local charities could use that more than cable companies the promoters and two semi broke shot fighters that burned...

They didn't even let him play out the string and it was a 2 for 1 deal as the GM was fired too. I wonder if the Patriot way worked because of Tampa Tom more than BB, this will be debated in Boston area bars for decades to come.

In the past the NFL was always leery of extreme disadvantages like this because of the image of a fixed game. If you allow a qb that will be running a rusty version of the Baltimore offense to be fielded by Denver from the outset you might as well have a forfeit as there is no way Denver has...

Probably the most dynamic player that I have ever seen live died two days ago. Maradona could weave through defenses and get defenders to converge on him and then weave through them with dynamic runs and score in a more violent era of football. While not truly White as he was probably Castizo...

This parody has me fooled for a minute as I thought how does a game manager at best become # 8 on the list of the top 100 players(and that was the "good" Sanchez). Sanchez is a strange case as he listened to country music and was a vanilla guy from the suburbs who didn't speak a word of...

Fittingly enough the last play of the game was called Sammy Davis... Similar to Sammy's assets at the end of his life the play was SNAFU from the get go.....

I saw the main event live and watched the two heavyweight bouts on Youtube. Formella is what he is and isn't world class, he was scouted to give a decent work out for Benn but he can't punch hard so at best he could have outhustled Benn but not have turned out his lights. Babic looked decent...

Juan Domingo Roldan died a few days ago from Covid. He was known for his glorious battle with Marvin Hagler and his subsequent folds against Hearns and Nunn in world title fights. But leading up to the Hagler fight he beat quality club fighters like Frank Fletcher and Teddy Mann. Here's the...

That about sums it up less hold the extra cheese....... Baker got off on a technicality and is probably guilty of this crime but from I read he was being blackmailed by the lawyer representing clients that were robbed by Baker. The lawyer was playing both sides of the fence and demanded...
