Lot of good dudes at 140 lbs., I still would rate Lipinets in the Top 5.PinkydaPimp said:
Also really nice win by Relikh. Barthelemy is just pure garbage on nearly every level.

Yeah, still don’t understand it. You get very limited title shots and to win and not get a title seems a ridiculous spot to put yourself in.

Mike Tysons first 15 fights...who on that list isnt a tomato can? Most fighters fight hand picked opponents so they can learn and gain confidenceConlan knocking out another tomato can with a bloated record.

I think that has more to do with cultural and economic reasons than his skill. He if was from Latvia or Panama or something, he wouldn't be on TV or drawing any attention. It's just St. Patricks Day in NY and he is Irish.

One guy had 120-108, that is even more bonkers imo.
I simultaneously don't mind Conlan headlining the card over the legit title fight that preceded it, but I also don't rate him very highly at the moment, nor do I think he's necessarily a can't-miss prospect. If it brings more eyeballs to a boxing card, I'm all for it. Ryan Martin's kind of in a similar boat, although I think he's a better pro prospect than Conlan.
Coincidentally, former Top Rank flavor of the month Felix Verdejo took a real bad loss on the undercard.

WBC says that Prograis/Jose Ramirez is next for the belt. That's a helluva matchup. 140 lbs. is pretty poppin.

It's a #### load of money. If he fights that other guy it's a huge downgrade in pay

They need each other, in a sense. Nobody really gave a #### about Liam Smith or Khan, rightly so. JCC Jr. was basically a 3-card Monte trick that was only put over by the GGG announcement right after, to make every forget about what a ####ty fight that was. Canelo's credibility would've been further eroded if he hadn't fought Golovkin last year, they just couldn't have gone much further.
Weirdly, Spike O'Sullivan is claiming he's next for Canelo in the Fall. Fan-friendly fighter, but it is a major step-down in competition, again, for Alvarez. Lot of tough fights in that division with Jacobs, Saunders and Charlo, he will have to tread carefully after this fight with GGG.

no way parker gets a win on the cards. he better get a knockdown at least. Even though i think its very close.

btw this isnt making a good case for joshua to hold the wilder fight in the uk with these ref issues.

didnt expect the cards to be that one sided. but.. 
Two judges gave Paker 2 rounds and the other gave him one? I think he slipped another round or two in there, but yea, he got beat.didnt expect the cards to be that one sided. but..
