I am surprised that no one has started this thread yet.

I know this is an MMA website but I bet that there are some Boxing Fans out there.

I just love the sport of fighting in general and I have been raised by boxing.

So in this Thread we can discuss the "Sweet Science"

such as
Past Fights
Upcoming Events
Favorite Fighters
and Historical Figures in the Sport


Because like MMA in the US, Boxing started out illegal. But where it took MMA less than 25 years to gain the General populations approval, It took boxing over 100 years.

Discuss and have fun.

Has anyone been fallowing all the stuff about USADA being possibly corrupt and been hiding positive test from the commissions in boxing?   There a lot of shade being thrown USADA way.  Some people have been reporting of three possible failed drug test that where cover up by USADA.  There also reports of Mayweather having very low T and there never being any CIR test against the samples. There also reports that he received multiple times the allowed dosage for IV's, roughly 6 times the allowed amount. There also people reporting that it unclear why he never needed the IV's in the first place as he was only 3 pounds overweight a month before the fight.  I don't know if these reports are true or not, but they seem pretty nuts if this is true.  Wondering if anyone else has read any of these reports. If this was already brought up and im just behind, my bad.  Just seem like some pretty crazy stories going around and at least with the IV story there seems to be some truth behind it.

If Klitschko wins, he has to face Wilder next right?

@Ronwah  So now that Fury has won all of the Heavyweight belts (WBA, WBO, IBF, IBO, and The Ring) in this fight against Klitschko, technically becoming the first undisputed Heavyweight Champ (minus the WBC Belt held by Wilder and the other WBA belt held by Chagaev) since Lennox Lewis, who will Fury fight next?  Will he have to give Klitschko a rematch?  Does he fight against Chagaev for the other WBA Belt?  Will he go for a fight against fellow countryman Anthony Joshua?  Or will he try and unify all the belts and fight against Deontay Wilder?

Who knows mate. I suppose the money fight is a rematch and I imagine back in the UK.

@Ronwah  That seems to make sense.  I mean another victory over Klitschko would be monumentally huge for Fury, and that fight would easily sell out in the UK.  Still, I'd personally rather see Fury try and unify all the belts in a fight with Wilder.  That would be an awesome bout to see go down.  Two undefeated Heavyweight champions, in their prime, slugging it out to become the Unified Heavyweight champion.  At least that is the way I see it.

Just watched the replay. And I was really surprised by this. I really think that size really played a factor to the fight along with Fury's movement.

Now this can go one of two ways. Wlad is really entitled to a title shot after this due to him being one for 9 years. But it does not mean that it should be against Fury. I personally think, that Wlad should fight Wilder for his title, and for big money Fury should fight David Haye, and that would pack a Wembley easily. 

But Wlad and Fury will end up fighting again.

I think Wilder would KO Fury.
