Klitschko fight, now this. Is ESPN lobbying for these? Or are HBO and Showtime no longer interested in these heavyweights?

I remember Klitschko fights being on EPIX before this too.

BadAss2961 · May 11, 2014

Good fight so far. Bermane seems to take Arreola's punches pretty well.

Nice knockout for Bermane. No idea what he has for Wlad though.

x Power Pad Death Stomp x · May 11, 2014

Wha wha whaaaaa. Arreola is done

I was pulling for Stiverne. I like Chris, but he had his chances, and didn't take things seriously in the past. Good win!

IrishNinja · May 14, 2014

Alvarado has taken an entire career's worth of punishment in the last two years. I'm sure he and his people were happy to take this fight because of the money involved (and the dangling carrot of a Pac fight if he wins) but his health would have been better served by taking an easier fight or even a few more months off.

This is a very imperfect comparison, but I'm reminded of Diego Corrales vs. Joshua Clottey. Alvarado is coming off three brutal fights, he's moving up in weight, and Marquez is just too good.

Alvarado is going to get bludgeoned. I just don't see it playing out any other way.

Pac/Bradley II did around 750-800k buys, down from their first fight.

I'd say not bad, considering that Pac got pancaked in the interim.

Unless Marquez gets old over night he should handle Alvarado convincingly.

Don King's going to milk Stiverne for as long as he can. It's a shame because I'm sure Bermane isn't afraid fight Wilder and Klitschko.

Marquez by late stoppage.

The WBC is mandating Stiverne fight Wilder next. I think the play is for Don King to get involved with Wilder somehow as he's more marketable with the garish record and the bully beatdown viral video. (Protip: he sucks)

We can cross Haye off the Wilder list of potential opponents, Wilder doesn't want anymore of that.

x Power Pad Death Stomp x · May 17, 2014

Lol it's going to be hilarious when the first top 50 opponent he faces ethers him

That gif fully illustrates my frustration and disgust with Haye. Dude should be a superstar heavyweight; he's got explosive power and speed, plus elusiveness. Makes no sense that he can't put it all together.

Anyone watching Aydin vs Postol?

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

Hearing Michael Buffer say PlayStation 4, greatness awaits, makes me want to buy another one.

Aydin landing some shots!!!

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

Postol has taken over, out boxing Aydin

x Power Pad Death Stomp x · May 18, 2014

Pitty pat arm shots from Postol. Zzzzzzzzzzz.

Jesus, he couldn't have done that 7 rounds ago?

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

Postol scores the TKO, and will be Danny Garcia's mandatory at 140

abuC · May 18, 2014

Postol throws nothing but arm punches, Swift beats him.

x Power Pad Death Stomp x · May 18, 2014

Garcia would handle Postol, no problem. The Arm punching wasn't that impressive.

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

10-9 Marquez, very active round from JMM, Alvarado came close on some big counter punches

Turin · May 18, 2014

Pretty good first round for Marquez. He looks slimmer than he has in a while. Should be good for his combinations.

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

20-18 for Marquez, better round from Alvarado but he needs to get active

x Power Pad Death Stomp x · May 18, 2014

2 rounds to 0 Marquez. Alvarado not doing much.

3-0 Marquez now.

Yea agree.

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

30-27 Alvarado for whatever reason, seems unwilling to punch back, maybe wants to try and land that one big punch

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

40-36 Marquez, just like Rios against Pacquaio, Alvarado is just not on his opponents level

Syphon Filter · May 18, 2014

Dam Marquez is eating him up!

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

5 rounds to none, 50-45 for Marquez, but at least Alvarado is finally starting to fight back

6 rounds to none, Marquez is nailing him with beautiful combos, absolutely schooling the younger fighte

x Power Pad Death Stomp x · May 18, 2014

6-0 Marquez.

Now 7-0. Alvarado needs to brawl. His corner is giving the correct advice here, he just isn't listening.

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

7-0 Marquez still getting the better of the exchanges

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

DOWN GOES ALVARADO

Syphon Filter · May 18, 2014

Secret_asian_man · May 18, 2014

And knockdown

and Marquez gets knocked down too..lol

x Power Pad Death Stomp x · May 18, 2014

8-0 plus the knockdown. I really hope Alvarados gameplan wasn't to not throw punches while standing at the wrong distance.

BadAss2961 · May 18, 2014

Alvardo's corner needs to stop it. Dude is obviously in no mas mode.

Oh shit, maybe not. lol

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

DOWN GOES MARQUEZ

Ether_Snake · May 18, 2014

Haha, wow.

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

Alvarado finally got him and takes the ninth, what a fight! Alvarado still needs the knockout!

I love boxing!

Avon Barksdale · May 18, 2014

Well this fight just picked up.

Ninja Scooter · May 18, 2014

Shit just got real

BadAss2961 · May 18, 2014

Alvarado giving a show but he still has no shot at winning this.

He's gonna be fucked up tonight.

x Power Pad Death Stomp x · May 18, 2014

8-1 Marquez. Wow, so a guy who's a brawler has his best success brawling instead of trying to box? Huh.

9-1 now. Alvarado backs off.. Wat.

Ether_Snake · May 18, 2014

I don't think Alvarado can do much, I mean he could, but being bloodied up as he is I don't think he can throw anything that would give him the victory. Marquez won't be KOed.

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

10th round for Marquez, that cut on Alvarado's cheek is nasty

illmatic22 · May 18, 2014

I have it 117-109, 10 rounds to 2 for Marquez. Fantastic second half of the fight.

Make Rios-Alvarado 3 happen HBO

And while they're at it, maybe Marquez-Pacquaio 5

x Power Pad Death Stomp x · May 18, 2014

9-2. Alvarado better go for broke now

Marquez 10-2. Alvarado can go retire now. Marquez/Pacquiao 5 on tap I guess.

Syphon Filter · May 18, 2014

Easy work for Marquez.
