Message: [QUOTE="JAXCUSE, post: 4474454, member: 516"] I missed Fury/Chisora yesterday. Not the Trilogy I was looking forward to. Fight of the day was Choc - Gallo III. Rare DAZN card held in the US. Estrada wins close Majority Decision and takes the career series 2-1…. Styles different, but not much give between the two. Just like their 2nd fight, Estrada managed distance and outworked Gonzalez over the first 6 rds. Choclatito closed gap and finished stronger over 2nd half of fight. I actually scored this one a draw. Both showing some ring wear and tear at this stage of careers (threw 600 fewer punches collectively than last bout), but still a highly entertaining fight. I’ll give the older Fly/SuperFly generation (Choc, Estrada, Sor Rungvisai, Cuadras) credit - they all fought each other multiple times and gave us exciting, competitive scraps. Understand the business model for the little guys was different, but can only wish there was the same inertia to match today’s bigger names with each other. No Crawford/Spence this year was very disappointing (although not surprising to me). I’m actually impressed that Haymon/Ellerbie signed off on Tank/Garcia for next year. But to me, that’s not a real super fight. Rather, a beginning to a long-overdue “sorting-out” at 135. My boxing XMAS wish for next year - unification/P4P superfights at Heavy, Lightheavy and Welter. Monster jump to 122 (no one below that weight capable of standing up to him). Welter young guns (Ennis and Ortiz) fight each other (I’d settle for activity against live bodies). Same with the Middleweights (Charlos, Munguia, Tszyu, Andrade). Give me Loma/Shakur with winner against Haney for his 135 Titles. Canelo retirement tour and Teo Lopez get’s his head on straight and back in the mix. Lol - I’d settle for a third of that list…. Happy Holidays to all my fellow Cuse Boxing fans. Great to see the football team bowling and let’s hope JB get’s the hoops team on track this season….. [/QUOTE]
