If Tszyu is half as good as the father he'll have a great career.

Good news that Ortiz Jr is out of hospital and on the mend.

However being in hospital

one day does not suggest a metabolic disorder and combining the short stay in hospital with the fact that the actual cause is being totally swept under the carpet, as is usual in boxing, suggests that the speculation about it being caused by the use of a particular drug while trying to lose weight, probably an amphetamine, most likely correct.

Got to admit that things have improved quite a bit in recent years over here in the UK in terms of showing boxing from around the world.

We have DAZN and now Sky have a deal with Top Rank so, in addition to UK fights, we get all the TR US fights - trouble is we have to stay up all night for those.

This weekend even the Probellum card from Dubai is being shown on Eurosport 2.

So things have improved in terms of coverage but it all costs money of course and it’s costing more and more each year. Don’t think the missus realises how much it costs.

For those fights that aren’t shown in the UK, such as most PBC fights, they’re usually shown somewhere on YouTube on Sunday - sometimes only the highlights.

Good to be talking to someone from else where OZZy they got good blues music in the U.K> ?

And yea it all costs money too much with all the dif apps used to cost nothing but a TV and a antennee. Now who uses an antennea other then me to pull in blues stations from 70 miles away or more. Still some fights could break out in time this weekend.

Got to admit I’m uneducated when it comes to blues music John - but it must be a nice interest to fall back on compared to what’s happening in boxing these days 👍.
