On the PBC podcast, Thurman said that he contracted COVID for the second time recently. He isolated and ate nothing but Uber Eats. Stepped on the scales and weighed in at 188

We don't have a kickboxing thread so I just wanted to post this here. This is by far the biggest fight that could be made in the sport, p4p #1 vs #2, almost like the Floyd vs Manny in kickboxing. We need to get another boxer to sell out Tokyo Dome since Mike Tyson i think was last to do it


Tyson didn't sell out the Tokyo dome against Douglas.
There were empty sections all over the place.
I think it was like 40,000 or so.
Even less people were there two years earlier when he fought Tubbs.

Dam for some reason i thought Tyson vs Douglas actually had like a crowd of 67k but you're right it was only a crowd of around 40k. Dam idk what matchup you'd need in boxing to actually do the 67k crowd, maybe if Tyson vs Bob Sapp actually happened back when it was supposed to

When Bob Sapp fought Ernesto Hoost in that K1 tournament at the Tokyo Dome, that was a near sellout.
Wiki says 74,500

beat me to it! Lol.
I don't want this corny ass fight anyway.
Canelo avoiding all the top fighters disrespectfully (in his weight class that is)
I didn't want it but after the Bivol beating and the Maruta fight, I'm like fuck it...sign me up. All I ask for is fair judging. Cause he better not let GGG whoop his ass :lol:

I def want Canelo to lose esp when he avoiding Demetrius, Benavidez, & Charlo. Oh he'll fight them, when he's no longer considered a big draw, pound/pound or undisputed.
He's gonna do the same shit Keith Thurman did to Errol Spence... Now that Errol is the man and strongly dislikes Keith for ducking him, he (Keith) now all of a sudden wants to fight Errol
Also, just heard that Keith recently declined the Boots fight lol

Eddie Hearn and Barry Hearn are reportedly in talks with private equity firms to potentially sell a minority stake of Matchroom. It's claimed deal could value Matchroom at £600m-£700m and see the Hearns receive around £175m if they opt to sell 25%. [According to @SkyNews]

He beats Demetrius and Charlo I'll say handily. I think he destroys Charlo honestly. Benavidez on the other hand i think he beats all 3

you watch the White Chocolate fight? I feel like all Matchroom USA got left is him and Ammo now that I heard Andrade is not with them anymore
Yeah I watched that man. I wasn’t impressed. I watched the fight on mute and I thought it should’ve been a draw.
