JDS vs. Overeem co-headlines Dos Anjos/Cerrone on Fox. They've been trying to do this fight forever so hopefully it finally happens this time.

Overeem is chinny as well and has a bunch of miles on him but he's at least fought a little bit smarter since moving to Jacksons.

Overeem has also been fighting incredibly smart gameplans lately so I am leading his way. I just don't know how much JDS has left in the tank.

Ronda going to soon get into territory biting off more than she could chew going back n forth with Mayweather. Getting a little to cute saying you make more per second. Just focus on you

Just focus on you Her comments sound petty. If you're going to fight Floyd, do so. If you don't keep yourself quiet and focus on your own sport. Why hype up a fight that won't happen?

There's no downside for her. She gets mainstream publicity, they'll never actually fight, people will actually believe she can win, and he can't say he would without being called a misogynist.

The fact of the matter is that Floyd is the big money and will be a target because of way he fights. It's just dumb to keep barking up that tree. I'm sure this amuses Floyd but the bigger picture is how can one boxer make more than all fighters booked over the next 6 months. I know it's been said before, boxing is a dying sport but it's still a shame how MMA fighters are still paid peanuts. Ronda and a lot of fighters should use their voice for that purpose instead of barking with Floyd.

So it's a waste of everyone's time because nothing good will come out of it. Both Ronda and Conor McGregor have become huge draws for the UFC and both have said that they can beat Floyd Mayweather up if they fought him but, at the end of the day, their banter looks like a cheap tactic to catch up some eyes on them because they don't worry about people that could actually fight them. While that happens, I'll be here, getting excited for Cotto/Canelo, Lawler/Condit and Méndez/Edgar.

Well I should say in America. It is hyperbole but that's always the quote people go to when talking about the popularity of boxing in america.

Aye I understand, I will concede the sport is in dire need of some more megastars like in the Hagler, Hearns, Leonard, Duran era. though this Lamieux, Golovkin, Cotto and Alvarez mini tournaments got me pretty excited even though I'm pretty sure GGG walks it.

I hate Mayweather but Ronda needs to get off his ass already. The first shot was ok. Kinda out of nowhere but now she's going on about her money and his disability.
He's king douche and all but focus on your own shit. Take an acting class instead of wasting time on this garbage.
An MMA fighter would win against a boxer in an MMA fight? YOU DON'T SAY.

Boxing needs a fighter dedicated to the craft like Floyd but has to throw caution to the wind. Their is fighters out there like that but they don't have the charisma to make it up top. I'm excited for the Cotto vs. Alvarez simply because Cotto isn't a cautious fighter he used to be and Alvarez has grown since Floyd schooled him. It's a shame GGG isn't getting the love he should because when he steps into the ring you know his opponent has about 2 rounds to figure something out and 6 rounds in total before he's finished.

Floyd responded back to Ronda jab at him and it's kind of crazy to see the tide of popularity starting to negative on the Rousey side. As I said before she's already getting to the point of being a little too cocky and it starting to look like people are getting fatigued with her.
Also suprised I never commented on JDS vs Overeem. I feel like i'm going to be watching a career end that night sadly.
