@DanRafael1 @CarlMoretti My all-time favorite Carl quote on a fight status: "Sure, you can report that the fight is almost done... but you'd be wrong."

According to @CarlMoretti of Top Rank, an O’Shaquie Foster-Ray Ford 130 title fight isn’t as close as Eddie Hearn has said. This is from my #boxing notebook. Take a few seconds and sign up at danrafael.substack.com

@JakeNDaBox @RapaczBoxing @abeG718 Abe is one of my favorite #CloserToTruthHeads. And greetings from P.R.!

One last thing...mainly from yesterday as folks on here were commenting on my tweet..if the library wasn't important, he wouldn't have mentioned it. Just sayin
Abraham Gonzalez@abeG718
Arum states here that the Library will also be on DAZN.
English
@RapaczBoxing @abeG718 Not at all a throw-in. Abe is a lot closer to the truth on this one.

@snboxing We've hit such an idiotic point in this sport (and our coverage of it).
English
@phillikesfights I don't disagree. And Bivol's fight technically isn't even confirmed/formally announced, which makes it an even fairer argument.
English
@JakeNDaBox Thats crazy to me. Because he still has not fought. God forbid Egypt has to be shut down, or Eifert gets ill, etc. Bivol may still not fight unless they have a scheduled back up opponent. Artur could end up on that undercard from my understanding and then he would be active too.
English
Artur leaves for Inactivity but Bivol, who LAST FOUGHT ON THE SAME DAY IN THE SAME FIGHT, is still on the list.
Jesus Christ.
BoxingScene.com@boxingscene
The BoxingScene pound-for-pound list has had an update.💪 Oscar Collazo enters the list while Artur Beterbiev drops out for inactivity. What are your thoughts?🤔
English
@broomylfc @CerJarko @abeG718 Depends on which figures you're referring to. Seems to be several different reports.
English
@JakeNDaBox @CerJarko @abeG718 Top rank to DAZN maybe true but it doesn’t sound like the figures were true.
English
So the TR news about signing to DAZN from Keith Idec has been deleted and the post by the RING has been deleted as well. It's either their were more details or they wanted this to be part of the RING show and have Copp break it on there. #TopRank

PBC haven't done anything close 10-12 shows since that deal and majority of their fighters have fought more on Turki cards then Amazon Prime 😭
Antonio McMillion@antonio_mfp
So when PBC signed a deal with Amazon for 10-12 shows a year with a few per show just like Top Rank just did with DAZN. Y’all made think pieces saying PBC was going under lol. But Top Rank signing a deal smaller than GB last deal it’s good for boxing? Smdh

Just because you have a platform, doesn't mean you know the business, put the work in before you comment on situations. #boxing

@hatebhar23 @TheKidIrv24 @CerJarko @abeG718 Why? His reporting has remained fair, consistent and balanced. Plus - and this is without knowing his salary - doubtful that anyone else in the industry will cover what he's currently making there.

@StevenStozz I literally suggested a few years while I was still in the BWAA that the Good Guy award should be permanently (at least for our lifetime) named after him.
English
@JakeNDaBox Nino’s like the nicest person in boxing and I don’t want him to get hurt anymore.

Rare occasion where I didn't get to watch Japan card this morning due to other commitments. Very likely will never watch the main event. Regardless of result,@filipinoflash is forever my guy and I look forward to delivering his Hall of Fame speech in 2030.
English
@EverythingBoxi2 @ATokkers5 Queensberry was the original source on this one. @devsahni strikes me as precisely the rascally type of fella who'd add 1 when the situation doesn't warrant.
English
@ATokkers5 So the guy that adds up those cards also runs DAZN's social media, interesting.
English
It ultimately didn't matter in the end, but they've given Cacace an extra point for the 116-113 card. He was given 10 points in seven rounds and 9 in five.
If you're putting together scorecards you really should be able to do basic addition. Really not a good look.

The scorecards from Dickens vs Cacace 👊 #DickensCacace

Remains to be seen how far Arnold Barboza can go at 147 (and it's fairly wide open at the moment), but IMO this was a career-best performance. Résumé-wise, the Catterall win will stand out more, but I've never seen him look better than he did tonight. #BarbozaSims

@AdrianReyn79551 @AyeForeman What does PBC have to do with a strawweight title fight on DAZN? Or that app - which hemorrhages money - not having the budget for the fight we were supposed to get?
And if a PPV is ass, the beauty of it is that you don't have to buy it. The power of the consumer.
English
@JakeNDaBox @AyeForeman Schtick 😂 how many events will pbc have this year. 6 total 😂
English
That fight was a complete waste of time. Inexcusable that we were instead supposed to get Collazo-Jerusalem II yet there wasn't the budget for it on an app with a $45/mo pricetag.
English
@AyeForeman @AdrianReyn79551 It's his tired schtick. We don't even follow each other but he constantly goes out of his way to take shots.
And I already wrote on how weak is the March 28 card, and that was when it still included Sanchez-Torrez.
English
@AdrianReyn79551 @JakeNDaBox Like my boy we talking bout the rematch😂what does pbc have to do with this
English
@NajiChill @CrystinaPoncher THE best!! Glad to see multiple platforms finally recognize.
English
To be honest @CrystinaPoncher is one of the best commentators in the sport. She should be on more broadcasts! Amazing job last night on Pro Box
