Kambo - Lopez have to take a few jabs before the fight can happen hummmm. Wonder if either camp will object or if there are any side effects(from jabs) have to postpone the fight until things clear up I mean why not this fight was Mandatory that turned into a lame story for a long time now. But with no fights being on we get this and what else oh yea Charlo rips off a Texas waitress bc he knew he would get away with it as usual. Hope she gets a decent tip from Charlo's lawyers if they settle out of court bet it will cost more then the meal ticket. Anyone sick of not getting any real fights to talk about ? Football Baseball play-offs gearing up and boxing gives there fans what ? NADA

There’s no question that boxing invites a lot of cynicism, but I don’t think I’d go so far as to say it’s got nothing in the offing. This weekend is obviously a bust, but I’m definitely interested in the September 4 DAZN card. Oscar Valdez fights the following week, not against a world beater or anything, but that fight isn’t a joke, either. AJ-Usyk is legit, too. I think a lot of fans have forgotten what it was like pre-PBC & DAZN, when you could easily go three weeks between cards on HBO and Showtime, many of which weren’t exactly must-see-tv.

Boxing has been in a drought is what I am saying, you may not agree but to look back in time what time when DAZN and ESPN PLUS did not exist ? Those platforms have not delivered what was promised or expected. Are the fights you mention Tron poss. good cards we will see I have not looked that far n deep ahead yet due to cancellations and changes in cards but still the Summer has not delivered on the number of fights or the quality of fights for me, not going to explode over it, but there are other sports that are keeping a pace and an interest just the fact we are talking about what might be coming up and not what has happened in the ring the past three weeks tells some of the story.
