The fact that that either of these 2 wank stains can generate interest in a fight is fucking crazy to me.

2 absolute fagg.ots, neither can box for shite, I'd have battered them at 12 years old.

The Sad but good part is that there's a up and comer on the card named Nikita Ababiy that's NASTY! Kids could be a world champion and has unreal punching power and a body punching specialist..I think he's like 7-0 with 6 devastating KOs coming off a brutal KO over another fellow prospect with a very respectable record of 13-2...I expect him to crush a journeyman this fight and keep climbing.. a lot more so In Boxing you'll see them do a good job of slowly building a prospect and not bringing them along too fast and stunt the growth of their young fighter... I've seen this kid fight since his amateur days and this dude isn't 1 the more well known upcoming stars but mark my words when I say you'll be hearing his name in the near future and fighting for titles!

MMA development can be too reckless and fast, but boxing goes way too far the other way. The idea that you have to fight 150 amateur bouts and then 25 bums in the pros before finally stepping in for a competitive fight is fucking absurd. What you call development is in reality called 'record padding'.

You either get guys like Fabio Maldonado, already washed out of his MMA career, who has a padded boxing record of 26-0 that a promoter can then sell to the public that this record will make him competitive vs Oscar Rivas. Or you get legit talents but their promoter's protect them to milk every cent - guys like Kell Brook from recent times or extreme cases like Julio Cesar Chavez where he fought 45 bums before taking a real fight.

Guys like Lomachenko and Rigo should be more the rule than the exception. If you're an elite talent, you shouldn't be screwing around fighting bum after bum.

You're exactly right in your assessment! I believe there's a happy medium..I had 24 ammy fights..at 1 time I had 9 fights in 7 weeks..I would go to ohio and Illinois and fight in 4 man ammy tournaments at 18 not even old enough in the bars I ws fighting lol..And I did fight plenty of cans not by design most of the time..I just fought whomever they had and some we street fighters that thought they were ready to fight in a cage and I fought other young wrestlers, boxers and such.. my home state wasn't even sanctioned until I had well over 30 pro/ammy fights.. and there's 30 or so not on my record because of it.. Then I eventually became managed my Chas Boling and Monte Cox and they brought me along as a pro and i'm blessed to get to do what I did and go the places I Did.. Regardless this kid Nikita passes the eye test with flying colors and is def 1 to keep an eye on.

It'll def be entertaining and i'm sure you'll be shocked by the ridiculous antics of the turds in the main event..Logan paul is a legit wrestler though and is really athletic.. ...but he's a egotistical asshole that needs humbled and I would die if KSI beat him.
