LSC robbed. Refs are crap.

Super close fight, I had it a draw, but 115-113 to either guy is fine....that 117 card is wacked. Still a good fight, love to see a rematch. Not sure what Santa Cruz was talking about with the fans cheering being why he lost. That was kind of 😒

I had it close, but I believe Frampton took it. He landed the cleaner, harder shots throughout the night. It seem like LSC was going through different plans to try to find his positioning but couldn't secure the W.

wow great fight last night, Carl really impressed me and I thought they was going to rob him.
I see Khan now wants to fight Brook. Brook has called him out though.
"I am not really concentrating about Amir Khan right now - Gennady Golovkin is the man in front of me,"
"I have heard that he hates me, Amir Khan, and he does want that fight.
"Last week he didn't want the fight. He's worse than the Kardashian sisters. I haven't got time for him."

Didn't he want to fight some MMA fighter last week? King Kon is a joke.
UK anti doping just announced they charged and suspended Tyson Fury in June for using a banned substance.

Well, there goes the rematch. Wlad should just have one last big fight and then retire.
Did they ban butter and pork chops?

Well, I spoke too soon. Pac is fighting Jessie Vargas in the fall instead of Crawford.
Shitty matchup, but there you have it.
Koncz reminds everyone he is a fool:

I like Manny, but that camp always fails to deliver the fights people actually want to see.

They should put Terence Crawford on the undercard to hype a potential matchup next year. However with Manny's waning PPV numbers they're going to be cheap, so they probably wouldn't be willing to spend enough to get Crawford vs a decent opponent.

Disappointed Bud didn't get the fight. C'mon Top Rank.

This is why advisors shouldn't be in boxing. It's people like Koncz that make the sport bad.
Ugh. I'd have even rather he dug up Gamboa for a 140 fight than this.

Can't wait for Ward vs Kovalev. I'm confident that Ward will win, and then I'm not. I love it.

Ward is boring. Should have had that can out of there in less than 5 rounds. Always looking to clinch. Just a trash fight. Hoping Kovelev knocks his block off so he can go back to fighting in front of groupon b1g1 free tickets papered crowds in Oakland.

I guess you can call me Mr. Salty, but dude acting like he's #1 p4p shouldn't be carrying a guy ranked in the 30s of a lower weight class for 12 rounds of John Ruiz style.

I mean it happens. He dominated all 12 rounds, he's not a KO artist, and his opponent had a great chin and fought defensively. You act as if he didn't want the knockout, he was going for it but couldn't even stun him. No need to force it.
What's important is we get the fight we all wanted.

wow kell got big, this makes it more interesting at least.
Okay. That's eyebrow raising.
Begs the question of whether or not he'll even fight below 154 after this.
Errol Spence fights on Sunday on NBC immediately following the Olympic basketball finals.
One of the most exciting young contenders in the sport.

Errol Spence is gonna be a problem. Think he's better than Thurman. And is now the mandatory for Kelly Brook.

thurman is overrated.
I can't wait for Errol Spence to mix it up with the top welterweights. He'll be in the pound for pound discussion before long.
Thurman, Brook, Garcia, Khan. I think he beats them all.
I think Terrence Crawford or Tim Bradley would be more interesting tests for him but that won't happen anytime soon.

Kell Brook gonna vacate. Think he goes to 154. Either way the farce needs to end. He's 30 has been in the division forever and his best win is Shawn Porter.

Anyone watching Brook vs Golovkin tomorrow? Really hoping Brook can go the distance at least but Golovkin should have this in the bag.
