    Joshua in 3 today

    this fight is a dud.

    till AJ step to Wilder then I'm treating all his future fights as ? fights

    Dud? Nah. Takam probably a top 10 heavyweight

    He not, but nice try.

    Name 10 better
    Joshua
    Wilder
    Ortiz
    Parker
    Pulev
    Whyte
    Breazeale
    Ruiz Jr
    Big Baby Miller
    Stiverne
    Haye
    Povetkin
    Fury

    Breazeale hell no. Stiverne no. Ruiz jr no. Fury not even fighting

    bud crawford bout to fight jeff horn.....

    this is exactly why horn got the gift against manny, and i been called it.....


    big bob ain't want manny to get his head knocked off by bud in a meaningless fight, but he knew bud needed a title when he moved to welter....so he robbed manny, to sacrifice horn to bud crawford....then he might throw manny at him on the headline of a huge ppv......THEN he can start his crawford p4p #1 media campaign and say crawford is the A-side against ? like danny, turman, and spence, cuz bud the only one headlining ppv's...

    chess not checkers.....

    It's a old school wrestling move. Get the champ to drop the belt to the home town kid. The home town kid fights to new guy that has some heat , loses, the the guy with the heat fights the legend in a big money grab beats the brakes off of him . Then he has the leverage to call shots even tho he will never wrestle the guys in other territories . Bob arum looking like Jim Cornette out here

    This aint ? wrestling g. Lay off the cartoons my ?

    Of course it's not wrestling. But top rank is using that model.

    Lol who is he gonna call the shots against? He gonna have to fight Spence and Thurman eventually. He not calling shots vs the top guys in the division.

    Arum will always find a away for those fights not to happen, I ain't really messing with Crawford until he leaves top rank.

    Golden Boy Prez To Mikey Garcia: Fight Linares - No Extra Options!

    Golden Boy Promotions President Eric Gomez has set a strong message in the direct of former three division world champion Mikey Garcia.

    Gomez wants Garcia to fight Jorge Linares (43-3, 27 KOs) in a unification - and he wants to make a deal as soon as possible.

    Garcia holds the WBC lightweight title, while Linares is the WBA's champion.

    Because Linares also holds the WBC's "Diamond" title at 135-pounds - he is the mandatory challenger to Garcia.

    At their recent annual convention, the World Boxing Council ordered Linares and Garcia to fight each other - but the sanctioning body never set any deadlines for a deal to get reached.

    Garcia (37-0, 30 KOs) was in brief talks with Golden Boy Promotions to fight WBO junior middleweight champion Miguel Cotto in December. Garcia rejected their proposal, because he refused to bind himself to a multi-fight promotional contract with Golden Boy.

    According to Gomez, he is willing to make the fight with Linares happen right now - and there is no need for any promotional options and any type of contractual language that would bind Garcia to Golden Boy.

    "Mikey Garcia, if you are serious about wanting to fight Jorge Linares - call me. No options, no extra fights. Straight up, no excuses," stated Gomez.

    Garcia responded back - "No need to put it out [in] public. You also have my number, I'll call you later bro."

    As previously reported on BoxingScene.com, Garcia was hoping to fight for a third time in 2017, but that's not going to happen.

    The television schedule has already become very packed until the remainder of the year. Garcia's next fight is being targeted for January 27, according to a team source who spoke with ESPN Deportes.

    Garcia started the year off strong in January, by winning the World Boxing Council lightweight title to become a three division champion with a brutal third round knockout of Montenegrin Dejan Zlaticanin at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.

    In July, Garcia moved up to the junior welterweight limit of 140 pounds and dominated former four division world champion Adrien Broner over twelve rounds at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

    Linares was in action last month, when he won a twelve round split decision over Olympic gold medal winner Luke Campbell.

    AJ could have ended the fight in the 2nd.
