Several people asked why I called Jim Gray an idiot after Saturday night’s fight. Besides the fact that he conducts weak post-fight interviews, there was this moment. Completely unprofessional, amateur hour stuff. We’ve never missed Larry Merchant more than this absurdity.

ICYMI results from last night's Mohegan Sun card. The Main Event was a thriller! fistthingsfirst.wordpress.com/2023/04/22/ces #boxing
If you think that body shot wasn’t good, you’ve prolly never been hit in the liver. Make sure you’ve been hit with a body shot from a professional fighter before you talk about Ryan. #DavisGarcia

This is the problem with lots of social media casuals tuning in to #boxing They expect it to look like a movie beating or a TikTok assault. It rarely does. Especially when it comes to body-shots.

For anyone who thinks that Ryan Garcia quit I have this to say. He got knocked down early by a very big punch by a big puncher, got up & kept fighting for 4 more rounds. When he got hit with a debilitating body shot he couldn’t continue. Period. How does that equal quitting?

It’s an overflowing Sportsbook here in CT to watch a “dead sport.” #DavisGarcia

Judging by tense stare down, Rosado-Melikuziev rematch should be interesting. First fight was one of the most violent one-punch KO’s I’ve seen live. Gabe a throwback: anytime, anyone, anywhere.

Meet Judy Eledge.
Anchorage’s mayor picked her to help run public libraries.
Alaska’s governor says she exemplifies “the heart of Alaska.”
She also has a well-documented history of inflammatory speech.

I wonder is Ranallo interrupts anyone attempting to make dinner conversation too.

Kill a defenseless climate activist in Georgia. After they die, kill them again. And again.
Disclose the names of the six police officers who committed this atrocity.

Imagine being so afraid of having your lies exposed that you could plop down more than 3/4s of a billion dollars to keep your overpaid blow-hards from ever having to testify. That's a helluva lot of MyPillow ads. Well played, You go on lying. No one will ever notice.
this week's #ShoBox card was TREMENDOUS & exhibit A, as if 1 was even needed, of why nothing comes close to what they've got going there. The announcers actually like #boxing, not their own voices. And Steve Farhood is a friggin' treasure. #Vitameatavegamin
Challenger George Foreman blasts world champ Joe Frazier with another haymaker in Kingston, #Jamaica in 1973. In a major upset, Foreman demolished Smokin' Joe, scoring six knockdowns before the massacre was stopped in round two. #Heavyweight #History #Boxing #Legends

Nothing like having your unofficial scorer saying he wants one fighter to win. Never change DAZN.

i'm at the point where I'd really love to see a Spider-Man 4 featuring a Team-Up with Daredevil, battling the Kingpin & the Scorpion & Kraven the Hunter. AND... I'd be cool with them never making another Marvel movie at all. What does that mean? #burnout #ImCoolJustReadingComics

We won’t be intimidated by them. This is too important.
