that was a damn good fight.

comment, the 15sec "bell" thing is annoying.  I keep thinking the round is over.  have they been doing that in boxing for a while?

Yes for a while but not all fights, never liked it either.

I miss the good old days of boxing. In college we got Hagler v Hearns, Leonard v Hagler, Tyson's golden age. Not to mention prior to that when we had Ali, Frazier, Foreman, Norton. Boxing was the sweet science back then. It's disappeared since MMA came along. Boxing was must see TV back in the day.

Mario Ranallo. One of the most recognizable names in combat sports, Ranallo was one of the lead voices of Pride FC.

Over the years, he has provided commentary for WWE, Showtime Boxing, Bellator, and more. He also called the action for Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Conor McGregor.

This is the way too excitable announcer.

Remember Hector Macho Camacho vs Julio Cesar Chavez?

Kate Abdo (Scott) is a comely lass. 

I was gruntled to see that she's on the desk. Weird gig for her - she's pretty exclusively a soccer commentator.

Also - does Cedric the Entertainer move the needle for anyone under the age of 35? Bizarre choice.

not having a US Heavyweight champ + MMA basically killed boxing.

 

Think having way too many different champions in same weight class is when boxing lost its way.  Also, fighters got where they fought once every two years, then pay per view for championship fights was the death knell.

I'm streaming from a PC with 1gb up/down and no problems at all.  Haven't tried on an Apple TV or Firestick.

I’m 350 down and it’s awful. I can switch to yttv and all is great. The audio keeps changing, buffering, they weren’t prepared at Netflix.

1. Netflix needs to stop all streams that aren't this

2. Netflix should have charged 9.99 for access

Yea they should have charged something, definitely would have helped.  Then again half their mics don’t even work so I’m not sure it would have helped with less people streaming.

It’s working live on my phone, tv keeps freezing up. NM it’s all fucked up
