Figure we need one for the Non Big Fights and the PBC shows
So any news or fights can go in this one
Tonight we got Golovkin-Lemieux on PPV
Some decent interest tonight for this out there from what's left of the boxing fans

Saw an HBO commercial today saw that one of the fighters in the ME has just had 5 fights. Don't think Boxing will ever make it back. Sad

fight is for the WBA interim title, which is not the same as the regular title or super title.
What a mess

A damn shame I forgot GGG was fighting tonight. He starting to get a little recognition but his name should def be known more.

GGG is an animal. My other favorite to watch lately is Lomachenko, who has a fight in a few weeks on HBO if I'm not mistaking.
In a dream world he would face the Canelo/Cotto winner on NBC in a hugely hyped star building event. After the (assumed/hopeful) victory unifying the titles, he challenges Mayweather at Light Middleweight which brings Floyd out of retirement...
Unfortunately this isn't a thread about great long term booking ideas...so that won't be happening...

Unfortunately this isn't a thread about great long term booking ideas...so that won't be happening... Floyd Sr recently said that he didn't wanted his son to face that "giant" regarding GGG. Golovkin would kill Floyd, the size difference is just way to much. He's also way taller than Floyd so the reach would be in GGG's favor. What he did to Lemieux was brutal. I watched the fight with my in laws, like they even noticed that GGG didn't even sweat and despite receiving punches, he didn't received any important damage. I don't think Canelo wants to fight him. Oscar De la Hoya also doesn't want to sacrifice the biggest cash cow Golden Boy has. Also Gennady Golovkin is signed with a company called K2, it would he different if he was a Golden Boy fighter, but since he's not, Oscar isn't gonna take that risk. I'm happy that boxing can have its number one attraction be a guy that actually knocks people out, not boring fights.

Him vs Floyd is not even plassable considering the height and weight diffence. Him vs Ward tho should def be on the table since I don't see Oscar putting Canelo in that spot
