2-0-Sixx @2-0-Sixx So when GGG fought Rubio, you think that Mexican audience that sold out the show were rooting for Rubio? It was obvious he captured the Mexican audience before the fight and they went for him. Same with Manny this past weekend. But you guys wouldn't know since you guys ain't out here in the South. It's a totally different atmosphere, especially when it comes to boxing.

Yeah, I'm sure Golovkin has gained some Mexican fans there is no question, but that don't mean he has all of Mexico behind him! He's never had a PPV before. He's not going from no PPVs to PPV record holder in one fight lol. Everyone knows who Mayweather and Pacquiao are, people who don't know ANYTHING about boxing know these names. Golovkin? Nah bruh.

manny got the messicans behind him cuz most hate floyd, thats a factor in why canelo was even involved in the 3rd highest grossing fight, floyd has cultivated his heel role against the messican fanbase and they tune in hoping he loses.

Anthony Joshua
Oleksandr Gvozdyk
Khalid Yafai

Shit I missed it. I saw the Irish prospect though funny I almost put him on my list but couldn't remember his name.

The way he looked tonight against a guy that was talking about retiring he shouldn't be on your list. Bad night for TR guys.

Tapia was weight drained and just looked terrible. Soro was rolled a lot of his punches and let Tapia flurry at him. That one left hook when Tapia was hurt ad Soro threw his entire body at him and missed was great.

I love the Ip man series, looking forward to this

Photos: Mike Tyson, Donnie Yen at Ip Man 3 Presser

At a press conference in Shanghai, former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson was officially confirmed as joining the cast of Ip Man 3. The film is the final instalment of a biopic of martial arts ace and one time mentor of Bruce Lee, Ip Man.

The film which has a budget of US$36 million is produced by Hong Kong-based Pegasus Motion Pictures. It is executive-produced by Shi Jianxiang, founder and CEO of Shanghai Kuailu Investment Group.
