/box/ get ready for some boxing action tonight on HBO at 9:00 ET. We've got a superb showdown between Rocky Martinez and Vasyl Lomachenko for the WBO SUPER FEATHERWEIGHT belt. This fight will probably be a good one!
On the HBO undercard overhyped Puerto Rican prospect Felix Verdejo that refuses to stop trying to turn into a superstar will be fighting Juan Jose Martinez.
Also on the HBO undercard way overhyped Chinese fighter Shiming Zou will be boxing Jozsef Ajtai for the utterly meaningless WBO flyweight title.
The non-televised undercard will be shown online at toprank.tv/index.jsp and might be watchable! It begins at 6:00 ET.
There are fights on Showtime too tonight. The fights start on Showtime Extreme at 7:00 ET.
The card is headlined by Ruslan Provodnikov vs John Molina Jr.
Also on the card: Demetrius Andrade vs Willie Nelson, Dejan Zlaticanin vs Franklin Mamani, Willie Monroe Jr (remember when Golovkin beat his ass) vs John Thompson, and a big sloppy heavyweight punchfest between Andrey Fedosov vs Miguel Heredia.
Benjamin Myers
Bump!
Today's a pretty fucking nice day for boxing!
Aaron Hernandez
The undercard on toprank.tv is starting!
Cooper Cruz
I'm going to Las Vegas for Crawford vs Postol. Any recommendations for stuff to do in Vegas? I'm not big on gambling.
Chase Lee
neon museum, prostitute. drive a sports car, check out the homeless areas late at night
Josiah Roberts
Showtime Extreme broadcast should be starting now!
Robert Diaz
Watching this over Loma, maybe it will be over in time though. I imagine Provodnikov will get the KO
William Anderson
Which fight is worth watching more, the Provodnikov fight or the Lomachenko fight?
Isaiah Hernandez
Provodnikov vs. Molina will be a blood bath.
Aaron Miller
I was leaning toward this anyway, good to hear. I love Provodnikov fights. And he showed some improved defense in his last outing. But I know Loma has skills and is a rising young fighter, so I wasn't sure which to commit to watching.
Jayden Scott
Thanks OP. I box but it's so damn hard to follow what's going on and when, nice post
Brody Perez
Watch one on tv, stream the other like a real fight fan.
Am I on delay or something? Just watched the Bolivian go down on TV
Dominic Sanders
Canada BTFO
Xavier Thompson
who is everyone picking in the Provodnikov/Molina fight? Other than the fans, who wins?
Evan Cruz
Naw, it was something Malignaggi said (definitely rehearsed). He said "Bolivia getting destroyed twice in the US", probably a reference to some soccer tournament.
Nathan Nelson
Either provo by stoppage or molina by UD. Either way there will be blood.
Oliver Thomas
Provodnikov wins and probably lose Broner.
Carter Lee
Provodnikov got this. Molina is 0/3 in his last 3 fights, and he looked like total shit against Broner.
Adam Bell
oh I see, yeah they've lost all their games in the Copa America and have been eliminated early
Luis Fisher
Provo by TKO, no doubt in my mind.
Jeremiah Lewis
Molina is getting knocked out
Jacob Hill
Provodnikov will beat Molina's ass.
Provodnikov would beat Broner's bitch ass.
Jonathan White
Willie "pip" Nelson is up next I think he'll fuck this goof up
Dominic Turner
Siberian Rocky is too small, man. Molina is way taller than him and lost to Broner.
Provodnikov would lose to Broner unless he can bring what Maidana brought.
It'll either be a great fight, or it'll be Broner UD.
Matthew Allen
fyi, despite provodnikovs barbarian style, he has two degrees.
not only is he an ex world champion. He's without a doubt tougher than you and smarter than you as well.
Joshua Evans
Who you guys got in Thurman v Porter? I feel like Thurman has got it.
Ryder Rogers
I can't totally doubt Provodnikov, he brought it hard against Bradley.
Adam Taylor
that fighting fight is so damn good
Bradley totally didn't have to bang it out, but I'm glad he did
Jason Roberts
Thurman is favored by Vegas so I gotta go with him.
Xavier Powell
I hope Porter takes it.
That guy would fight ANYONE.
Jaxson Campbell
Porter for sure my man
Julian Long
Team boo boo baby
Connor Sullivan
I hope DLH actually loses the trial and gets sued for $100M+.
William Johnson
anyone got a stream?
Nathaniel Taylor
COUNTRY MUSIC GETTING BTFO
Isaac Torres
What's he on trial for? He's fucking willie up Dude doesnt use his height at all
Levi Reyes
>lanklets
Noah Wilson
Taima.tv/r/mma
Jaxson Scott
Signed Canelo to a contract even though he was with another promoter. The old promoter is suing DLH for millions for punitive damage.
DLH did the same thing with Manny too IIRC.
Alexander Gomez
Is the neon museum the same as the sign graveyard?
Austin Ward
This guy boo boo would clown canelo honestly
Parker Morgan
>tfw didn't go to the store for snacks before /box/ >tfw will get hungry during the /box/
Levi Davis
is it too late for predictionbro to take my picks?
Christian Thomas
It's very likely Canelo will go back to 154 after 3 years at middleweight and fight Liam Smith for a title. Smith is probably the easiest fight to get a title.
Who ya got, /box/?
Caleb Myers
Yeah chill by the pool and drink. It's going to be hot as fuck.
Noah Garcia
I can offer hot peanuts, beef jerky, bbq sunflower seeds, or goldfish crackers.
Jayden Jenkins
No go ahead and get em in
Nolan Price
Has everyone just conceded that Canelo will never fight GGG after giving up the belt like a bitch?
Isaac Parker
I love that this black dude is named willie nelson.
Brandon Rodriguez
tfw no acestream links on rebbit
Ian Stewart
Nelson starting to get in boo boo's head and turn this fight around
Grayson Allen
It'll never happen, partially because DLH is as big of a bitch as Canelo.
Canelo hasn't made 154 in 3 years. He's literally killing himself to avoid GGG.
I just want DLH to lose the lawsuit so he'll be forced to put on big fights.
Nathan Cook
Where do you live? Can you come to my house with snacks?
Xavier Jenkins
Doesn't feel that way to me
Also: dude seems like he has a big reach advantage. Why isn't he jabbing?
Cooper Cook
I'm staying at the Travelodge on the strip which I don't think has a nice pool, can I just go to another hotel's pool?
Blake Perry
what is GGG's best fight now then? BJS? Jacobs? Move up to Super Middleweight?
Oliver Lopez
who /magic man/ here
Wyatt Myers
Nice pools are overrated. Watch Leaving Las Vegas for tips on doing it properly
Jaxson Gomez
Paulie is a bro, but he was never a superb boxer.
Isaiah Johnson
Andrade is going to get tired and get knocked out if he keeps up with this fancy dodging and punching.
Angel Martin
Just keep watching. He's tiring out boo boo by taking his best shots.
Wyatt Gomez
"For a guy from Hungary, he sure didn't fight like he was hungry." - @FreddieRoach on Zou Shiming's opponent
Kayden Bennett
Ramirez at 168, lol.
Degale/Jack is going to unify. Ramirez wants to unify before fighting GGG.
Then GGG would just have to beat Ramirez and winner of Degale/Jack to become undisputed 168 champion.
Jacobs doesn't want to fight and BJS keeps saying "later". Eubank Jr recently said he wants to fight. But he's fighting next week or something, so he's probably just using GGG's name to sell his fight.
Literally no-one wants to fight GGG. He'll either fight a bum or move up.
Isaac Rivera
cool I'm watching the showtime fights now. surprised to see there was a thread for it
Ryan Morgan
Floyd will tell you Golovkin should fight Ward :^)
Adrian Kelly
>Knocked out by a lanklet
Easton Walker
I think I could break willie nelson's legs like chopsticks
Kevin Flores
>Ward needs a tune-up fight before fight with Kovalev in November >tune-up fight is somewhere in July >still no opponent named >will probably name someone with 1 week left before fight date so the opponent has no training camp and is drained to shit
wew
Jeremiah Young
I got a decent HBO stream for you lads
Chase Young
holy shit did you guys just see provodnikov's shorts? he's wearing back to the future stuff
Thomas Sullivan
is golovkin the most ducked fighter of the millennium so far? shameful.
Jaxon Bell
this kind of thing is why i refuse to put ward on my top 10 p4p right now. even if he has the skills, he's not fought enough and he's acting like a bitch.
Gavin Myers
Me too
Luis Nguyen
I give Molina 6 rounds, Provo's conditioning is crazy I don't think Molina is near that shape.
Asher Kelly
Missed the start. Did Nelson wear a cowboy hat to the ring? If I was his promoter I'd bill him as the black cowboy, rough rider , something.
Robert Harris
We'll post it goof
Caleb Allen
how does it feel still living at home
Jack Fisher
That's sort of like my setup only there's no bookshelf, the TV is on a table from Goodwill that still has the pricetag on it, and there's a stereo and spakers on the floor because I never bought speaker stands.
Not him but if I had that setup I wouldn't move out either
Michael Gray
he looks a lot like chad ochocinco there's a lot he can do
I hid all the trash and empties for the picture lel
Dylan Johnson
Saunders and Eubanks have been talking so much shit, I hate how people don't blast them more often for pretending they want to fight
Ayden Rivera
because tecate sponsors boxing all the time
Bentley Peterson
>Not taking pride in all your trash and empties
>tfw I quit drinking alcohol and at the peak of my drinking there'd be 30+ beer cans on my floor and I miss it
Angel Rodriguez
>Sup Forums and Sup Forums tabs >no troll tabs
Andrew Ward
Still waiting or....
Dylan Ross
Why are these tall guys never great? Looks like it should be easy
Isaac Thompson
I kept confusing Ochocinco and T.O. in my head, I knew Nelson looked exactly like one of them though
Dominic Jones
Man willie has a chin on him
Joshua Peterson
Eubanks Jr turned down a re-match with Saunders lol. And he said he "wants" to fight GGG.
All of my keks.
Jayden Hall
Featherdusting dago. The faggot paved the way for pansy pillow fisted poofs filling boring 12-round undercards. The biggest challenge for boxing fans these days is staying awake until the main event.
