I don't see this going well for GGG. Canelo should cruise to a decision. Father time and all that.

Yup. Boring fight. Trilogy ended ~4 years too late.

Joe Parker got starched by Joe Joyce. The latter has a granite fucking chin. Completely unfazed by any and all punishment. It's... weird.

And now Zhang TKOs Joe Joyce, taking his undefeated record. Heavyweight is wild.

Davis vs. Garcia is a banger so far. Jump on it if you're on the fence.

Yeah, that was amazing. Generating that much power at 147 lbs is unreal.

I'm just glad the fight finally happened.

Would consider Rysn Garcia the favorite, even if he lost his previous match.

Think this could be an interesting year in boxing. Hope to see Tyson Fury face some real challengers,

I miss the days when I could tell you in 2 seconds who the heavyweight champion was.
Every sentence in my head, someone else has said.

Boxing gym opened near me. Considering giving this a shot. Website suggests a variety of skill levels, including women and children (I do not intend to box with women and children).

Anybody ever done this? Is it realistic that I could get to a point where I'm sparring with other dudes without getting a concussion or losing a tooth?
