Wallin is worn out 

[BigOrange1 6562]

damn, lotta drama in this one.

[Loch Ness Monster 3533]

Wallin fading

 

[hobbes2702 13166]

Fury dominated that round. I have it Fury 6 rounds to 2

[hobbes2702 13166]

Wallin lucky to survive that round 

[BigOrange1 6562]

fury's got him.

[hobbes2702 13166]

Really impressive from Fury in this fight.

[hobbes2702 13166]

 Be careful Tyson

[BigOrange1 6562]

that was awesome.

[Loch Ness Monster 3533]

Wish Wallin didnt run out of gas so early. Props to him though

Great fucking fight. Props to Wallin for hanging through the late rounds with that barrage he was facing 

[LonghornJudas 1113]

Pretty good fight tonight. Wallin was just too worn out to take advantage there at the end.

[Goo Punch 4275]

best heavyweight fight i've seen in a long time. great fight. two warriors. 

[Junior Miller 1502]

Missed the fight Saturday but caught it on replay and Fury's goofy getup combined with his weird shape made him look like Homestar Runner.

[futureman 22565]

Errol is gonna destroy Porter.  fucking annihilate him.  nobody can even challenge Spence other than Crawford but sadly there is no clear path to that fight. 

[Coach pop a bitch 5797]

Barrios started off strong. Score card imo was way off. Barrios 2 knock downs saved his ass.

[Southernthunder 38]

Link you good sir?

[hundredTT 578]

Holy fuck, that was a great fight!

[michaelpshayes 417]

well that was something 

[Coach pop a bitch 5797]

Spence is the truth. Kid got pressured early on and you could see it bothered him but he adjusted well. Showed a great chin and hits with power.

[BigOrange1 6562]

hell of a fucking fight.  didn't think porter had much of a chance going in.  definitely made a fan out of me.  

[michaelpshayes 417]

Porter is like a bowling ball of knives...I don’t think there is another welterweight in the world that doesn’t go to sleep on that shot in the 11th.

 

[Junior Miller 1502]

That was close. If Porter doesn't go down in 11th I would have had him winning. 

[Zepol87 9263]

Not a technical fight at all but damn they hit hard lol.

[Zepol87 9263]

What the fuck is wrong with GGG

[Zepol87 9263]

GGG lost this. All he had to was go to the right eye

[Zepol87 9263]

That's very bad. Holy shit i hate how corrupt this sport is

[52-80 19282]

Boxing and shitty decisions...what else is new

he’s 37?

[michaelpshayes 417]

after Canelo KOs Kovalev, Oscar has to be racing to make the GGG trilogy happen ...it’s going to be an easy win and huge money ...GGG is a shell of what he was 4 years ago Canelo will destroy him

[BurdineBandit 817]

I didn't think the GGG decision was bad at all, I could easily see it 7-5 and then the knockdown. Derev's biggest successes seemed to be to the body of GGG, but he never really committed to it. Probably because of GGG's jab (which he didn't throw enough of, considering it's the catalyst to everything else he does). Really good fight, but not sure that GGG made a good boxing decision with this new trainer. But if it puts that extra 5% (or 2%, wonder how much he's really fighting over) in his pocket, good for him, he's been about the money for a while.

Interesting that GGG likely won his two biggest fights against real boxer-punchers due to an early knockdown. This fight seemed very similar to the Daniel Jacobs fight where Jacobs was down early and had to claw back. It would make sense why they've never mentioned Andrade or Charlo's name. He better get that Canelo fight asap, before he gets any slower.

[michaelpshayes 417]

I'd think Andrade or Charlo would beat GGG. 

Andrade is going to be a tough fight for anyone with his style. 

Charlo can KO you with one punch, but I don't know if I'm 100% sold on him being ready to take on Canelo or anything like that yet.

Errol Spence Jr was in a horrific accident this morning per Dallas media.  Was driving into Downtown near the 30/35 interchange and apparently rolled his Ferrari several times.   Serious condition at the hospital rt now 

[futureman 22565]

just glad he isn’t dead.

but this is terrible news for boxing.

Absolutely awful.   He’s a real treat to watch.   

[BurdineBandit 817]

Stupid stupid stupid. In a convertible not wearing a seat belt and speeding at 3 a.m. Was ejected. Extremely lucky to be alive.

Yeah, that is a lot of poor choices made at once. Lucky to be alive. 

[Skipper 6325]

Other than the initial report that he's expected to survive, there doesn't appear to be any additional updates.  Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing as far as long term health.  Based on pics of car though he's clearly lucky to be alive so anything else is gravy.

*disclaimer: this is unsubstantiated conjecture*

but during the mix with norm and donny today gordo hinted at some really bad news, possibly an amputation of part of an arm.  I don’t know where he got that, if it’s real, or if it has any legitimacy at all.  but he hinted toward that and I doubt he’d be joking about this tragedy.

Damn that would suck.  I mean just looking at pics you had to figure odds of him boxing again were slim but confirmation will really suck if/when that comes.  Just hitting his prime and on track to be though of as one of the greats.

[Trey3216 15381]

Just heard an update that he had several broken teeth, some severe bruising and some serious bleeding from teeth/tongue, etc, but was expected to be fine.  But he also may be facing a DWI charge now supposedly 

[Juicy 729]

Here is some shots with video, wild that someone could survive that

jesus that would be a miracle.  again, his life is all that matters and I’m so relieved he’s alive.  that said, it would be a great thing if he can fully recover and start beating ass in the ring again. 

[Zepol87 9263]

Yea I heard the amputation rumors as well but can't find anything online. This really fucking sucks. Glad he isn't dead that crash looked fucking horrible

That was from 1080 KRLD, so we still need to wait and see.  But yes, would be a miracle.

you don't come out of a crash like that the same as you were before

he's unbelievably fortunate to be alive,  just hope he's still fully functional and doesn't have physical handicaps for the rest of his life

it’s unlikely but it happens.  in high school during a blackout I rolled my truck several times going about 80 mph on the interstate.  woke up staring at pavement through my broken driver’s side window.  crawled up and out through the passenger side window, sat on the side of the road and waited for the fuzz.  I was picking bits of glass out of my scalp for a few weeks but other than I was completely fine.  exact same as I was before. 

[spystud13 2371]

Yeah, not a great example.
