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.

Lemieux is getting chewed up. GGG is just a flat out better boxer. Don't think it's gonna get any better for Lemieux either.

Round 6 and GGG is going for the finish.
Lemieux has to turn the tide NOW to get something back.

Jab from Lemieux is finding its way a few times.

GGG is is hammering the body and literally driving David back into the ropes.

Ref calls a stop so the doc can look at Lemieux nose and eye. and he gets the go ahead.

Jab still finding its way for Lemieux as he tries to rally himself back like he did in round 6.

GGG still pressing forward.

Lemieux is making it a battle, though. Not looking for a way out and is still throwing heavy shots.

The flurry started with a hard powerful jab and continued from there landing about 8 more after that.

GGG is not even out of breath.

I just hope GGG becomes a seller. I hope the numbers for this fight were good. It's his first PPV. Him vs. Cotto/Canelo would do wicked numbers. GGG/Lemieux and that fight are the two best fights of 2016.

Little disappointed in the refs for the two main fights tonight. Felt like both the Gonzalez & GGG fights could've been allowed to go a little longer. Both fights had already been won, so it's not too big of a deal.

Well it is for sure. The winner of Cotto/Canelo HAS to fight GGG. If not the title is vacated.
