Russell Jr has no power at all. Lots of shoe shine combos with nothing on them. Can't see how that was a split decision...
I may go to bed, completely uninterested in Robert GuerrerLOL

It's actually a decent fight so far, mainly cause Kamegai doesn't seem to know how to defend and just sort of Frankensteins his way forward.

This looks fairly even to me.

That left eye is shut.
Kamegai wins to me.

I'm glad I stayed up, that was a good brawl. If the Japanese guy threw to the head like he did to the body instead of arm punches, Guerrero would have been in some serious trouble.
Thurman is going to wreck him.

I am!!! Crawford looks legit shook by the moment so far, but it's early

I knew my boy was setting that right hook! Finally paid off! Come on Crawford, let's do this!

Crawford settled in nicely, lol

I think Gamboa is done, unless he lands something crazy. That body attack has sapped his movement and his speed; he looks like a zombie now. Crawford is dialing him in now.

OMG! These boys are throwing, but Crawford is so smart. That hook to the body is sick!

Yeah, for sure. Gamboa was sharp early, Crawford adjusted nicely, then the last round they just went nuts. Both men hurt, both unwilling to give ground, but Gamboa never learns, and keeps dropping his hands.

Hell yeah, that was freaking great!! Special shout out to Mikey Garcia for helping to make it happen!

Crawford Garcia would be worth seeing, assuming Crawford doesn't move up to 140

Just saw All Access with Canelo and Lara. Strange, how Lara stated he didn't like the crowds of cameras, yet he literally upstaged Canelo by confronting him face to face during the press conference for Canelo's fight with Angulo.

Cool, I guess. Doesn't really scream $59.95 PPV to me though
Kinda hard to get excited for this one... I was hoping Arum would of come up with a more sexier match up given the fact that he's cool with De La Hoya again, but I guess Haymon has everyone at 140/147 locked in.
Fighters would fight Pac anywhere if it means getting a 5 million dollar purse. Top Rank actually pay fighters pretty well
True (though, I'm guessing Algieri's cut is more like 1.5-2 million).
I guess the only person my comment really applies to is Marquez. In general he doesn't seem to be tripping over himself to face Pac again, and that fight was considered DOA as soon as the Macao venue was announced for Pac's fall fight. If does every fight Pac again, it is going to be in a more neutral location.
Speak more broadly, Pac's options are extremely limited and fighting Algieri will probably earn him just about as much money as fighting anyone else in the TR stable (besides Marquez).
My understanding is that the math for doing the fight in Macao is mostly rooted a giant site fee from the casino that is hosting the fight (also tax reasons). Say this fight does only ~400k buys; who can he fight that would realistically get him more than that?

Yep, but Pac basically chose this on himself when he resigned. He could of made serious money as a free agent or as a Haymon fighter, but now he's gonna have to figure out how he's gonna pay the IRS with fighting guys like Crawford and Algeiri for the next 3 years.

Canelo frustrated.
This fight might've been a bad idea for him.
