The fight might be more competitive than we think in the first half. Khan will certainly be as focused as ever and Saul still has those heavy feet.

I still think Canelo's knocking him out, it'll just be later than I initially thought.

In any case, we better get that fucking GGG fight in September.
 
Canelo fighting Khan next, at 155lb on May 7.

Holy shit that is huge for me, i want to see this badly!

Our cup runneth over this weekend.

Frampton-Quigg tomorrow. It's on Showtime at 5pm EST. This is going to be a good one.

Crawford-Lundy and Verdejo-Silva are on HBO a few hours later, at 10pm EST. Both shitty matchups but Crawford is always a treat and I've enjoyed watching Felix begin to realize his potential.

Lastly, Santa Cruz is taking on Kiko Martinez the same night, on Showtime at 9pm EST. Martinez is going to get smoked, but it's always a pleasure to watch Santa Cruz unload. It would be great if they could make something happen between Santa Cruz and Loma or Walters (though it looks like these two will fight each other soon).

Choose wisely!

Fun boxing weekend.

Frampton-Quigg is god-tier, but it's a shame that the others aren't taking on better opposition.

Really no surprise there. Crawford looked solid again. Lundy put himself in bad shape when he switched up. He was having success in orthodox then he wants to get slick.

I think it was the same ref from the GGG Lemieux fight. Made the same face when they exchanged hooks only GGG was the one blocking.
