Man I respected Coach Barry so much for the way he stopped this fight… Just watch the corner interaction.. You could see the love he had for Lamont
@ErrolSpenceJr
was on fire this nite‼️ I think this was his best performance to date..
Unpopular Opinion:
Sorry I just don’t think
@Realdevinhaney
staying at 135 to fight anyone makes sense for him.. Mf had to weigh in on the scale backwards for Loma.. It’s clear he’s struggling. Let him move up to 140 and be 100% healthy. 🤷🏾♂️
Where I’m from (Newark, NJ) this is considered hoe shit. Don’t matter who recorded it. If the conversation genuine why is your phone out on sneaky time? That’s 🐍 activity.. This a black eye & a no-no‼️ The old heads ain’t guiding these guys correctly..
‼️ During Devin Haney and Shakur Stevenson's back-and-forth on social media today, this video was leaked seemingly showing a secret recording of Devin's father/trainer Bill Haney discussing sparring between them…
Stop suggesting anymore fights for
@Realdevinhaney
at 135. If he gets passed Regis he’s obviously gonna stay and if he doesn’t he’ll still have to stay or take a huge health risk to make 135 again.. Let’s stop acting like we don’t see that he can’t make the weight‼️
The boxing world really needs Issac Cruz to lose to Cabrera.. I promise we don’t wanna see this rematch.. If it’s an in-house fight it should be Frank Martin..
Ion wanna hear no excuses‼️ Yall told me the guy was a C class fighter then went and displayed C class defense, hurt by every punch, no corner adjustments & poor execution..
Y’all told me he was levels above my guy.. It’s bout to get real interesting on here..
Devin Haney has had his best tool (the jab) rendered ineffective by his last 2 southpaw opponents (Jojo & Loma) If he moves up to 140 and beat arguably the 2nd best 140 & best Southpaw in the division who also has an 82% KO ratio he has to be top 5 P4P rite⁉️
We were in a space the other day talking about Charleston White and this is what I was saying👇🏾. Don’t let your emotions make you miss what’s really going on…
Im telling you right now.. This is a play from Oscar to get Ryan beat. Oscar Duarte is no joke and he’s really cracking. He isn’t the guy you want to have your fighter in with while he’s trying to adapt to a new style/trainer. UPSET ALERT🚨🚨🚨
Ryan Garcia will return in a junior welterweight bout vs. Oscar Duarte on Dec. 2 at San Antonio’s Alamodome, Golden Boy Promotions CEO Oscar De La Hoya told ESPN.
The fight will be streamed on DAZN, and it comes one week before Devin Haney fights Regis Prograis on DAZN PPV.
In this situation I think
@Realdevinhaney
should treat Loma like Errol did Thurman.. Don’t risk your health for that fight. Move up and fight one of the champions at 140. Catteral/Taylor winner or Teo for a vacant on PPV..
Unpopular Opinion: It’s ok to be fans of both
@terencecrawford
and
@ErrolSpenceJr
I’ve actually been fans of both for years and I’ve been making it ok. Y’all should try it too‼️
I said it on a space yesterday and I’ll say it again today if Ryan Garcia looks competitive in the slightest way against Tank.. After he gets KO’d they world will be giving him a moral victory and saying he dared to be great..
This Fulton v. Inoue really brings out the clown in some ppl. A lot of y’all don’t even watch the smaller weight classes but are invested in seeing Fulton lose. I wonder why? Mfs want this to be Wilder v. Fury so bad.
Terence Crawford is an All-Time great no question. But besides Spence when has he ever gave us a fight we were dying to see⁉️
He’s a guy that just does wtf he wants. Thats how he is. Still a HOFer tho🤷🏾♂️
.
@ShakurStevenson
vs.
@TeofimoLopez
in Newark‼️ It would easily do a $1M gate. And it’s the best fight
@trboxing
can make all year.. And if you wanna go there it’s PPV worthy‼️
Wahid Rahim(Fulton’s trainer): “I have a safety concern that I would like to address. In previous fights Inoue and his team have wrapped his hands with excessive amount of tape on his skin then placing gauze and more tape which creates a cast. If this issue isn’t resolved…I will
I felt like the only reason they made
@ShakurStevenson
v. Valdez was because of the Crawford suit. Bob has said he’s not making a Tank fight & didn’t offer it to Haney. Now Loma bumps him in the rankings. I hope he see’s TR don’t fw him.. It’s Clear‼️
I rock with Caleb Plant as a boxer.. But all that “honorary black” and he “one of us” talk gotta chill.. As a people we do this BS a lot. Caleb has an involved dad and all.. Let that man be a who he is (a white boxer with swag). That’s ok and it’s enough‼️
@KeyshawnDavis8
5 fights in, is operating on a world class level.. IMO he’s Bud 2.0.. Always in position, great hands, feet, elite punch selection, A1 defense.. The boxing world is officially on notice‼️
We’ve just witnessed a successful campaign from Ryan Garcia to sabotage this fight‼️
Devin won’t get any credit for beating him because of his actions. But those same actions are what Garcia will use to say he wasn’t in a mental state & deserves another chance to get a payday‼️
I hope Michel Rivera bounces back well.. Same mfs ready to call him a bum and write him off are the same ones wondering why prospects/contenders aren’t fighting anyone..
I love boxing I also would love to get paid to cover boxing but if I had to make 100 anti-Spence or anti-Crawford videos I wouldn’t do it. I would never compromise my integrity for a dollar. If my channel gets popular it’ll be because of boxing not boxing drama‼️
This is the trash part about being a boxing fan.. Imagine paying for a plane ticket, rental car, hotel, food, etc… To watch Jojo Diaz v. Jerry Perez..😭😭
Bud was and is your mentor.. Whatever you do signing back with TR should be the last option.. DAZN, PBC, and Young Turk giving the bag out.. No fighter gets big fights staying on TR and you haven’t either. Make your next move your best move‼️
If I sign wit PBC they gone make the fight happen right away or I gotta wait 6 fights down the line for it to happen? Or is that a way to keep me from grabbing the belts? Lol I really don’t know what I’m gone do but I’m tryna understand somebody ask Coach Kenny for me or do he
Ward, Holyfield, Mayweather, Lennox, Spinks, Oscar DLH, and many more medaled in the Olympics. Why do we never mention that when discussing their greatness, but it’s the 1st thing mentioned when discussing Loma⁉️
Everybody “reporting” it was close to done but Eddie Hearn must’ve not gotten the same memo‼️He’s no closer to a DEAL BEING DONE with Canelo than Espinoza and Showtime is.
Yall literally paving the way for Shakur to beat your favorite fighter up… Just be a fan bro.. All yall Shakur haters bout to be on the wrong side of history. AGAIN‼️
@ShakurStevenson
has stopped or at least knocked down his last 5 opponents. Miss me with the boring talk.. If you don’t want your favorite fighter to lose to him just say that.. But y’all gotta cut the shit‼️
Canelo will not “Pass the Torch” to anyone..
It’s either Bivol at 168 w/ a Rehydration clause and no VADA or Berlanga
Maybe Charlo because of inactivity
Morrell, Andrade, & Benavidez will never get the shot‼️
There’s no way some of you super pro Mexican or super pro Black boxing fans lead successful lives. In America you have to be able to network with different types of ppl to build and create.. Im convinced a lot of you are tweeting from mommy’s basement..
I think
@ErrolSpenceJr
has carried 147 on his back long enough.. I would be perfectly fine if he decided to vacate and move up to 154.. He could be champ before 2023 is over‼️
#ChaseHistory
Want some facts⁉️
Fuck the politics: Shakur, Devin, Tank & Teo all need to fight each other.
This is boxing, ion wanna hear about no splits, no business talk or none of it.. They need to all fight..
WELCOME TO MY TED TALK‼️
ATTENTION BOXING FANS: This is what cutting a ring off looks like‼️And truthfully Inoue’s not even trying hard.. Stop saying guys are running.. Tell your favorite fighter to tighten up‼️
NGL I might have the coolest 10 year old daughter ever. In her second competitive horse show she got at 1st, 3rd, and 6th place in her events.. I’m proud AF rite now‼️
Random Rant:
It’s crazy ppl say Chicken Tawk panders to PBC. Where were y’all when we had ppl in Tulsa, or San Antonio to see Bam or Newark for Shakur? The more I think about it there isn’t a group on this app more financially invested in boxing overall than Chicken Tawk
#facts
Idk if
@coolboysteph
was upset with his city or all the fans but I will say this:
The narrative that black fans didn’t support or value him as a champ is bullshit..
I’m not from Philly so I can’t speak to that but I know I been beating that Fulton drum for some years now..
Ppl will say it’s an excuse.. Rachel Donaire came on the
@LazyLeftyOG
Saturday show and said the same thing happened with them in Japan. Gloves were brought to the table already opened⁉️
