Good recap.  Interesting night of fights.  The TR (ESPN) headliners looked good (Shakur and Big Baby especially), the PBC and DAZN  “stars” not so much….  Some “interesting” judging on that Showtime Card.  I thought Campa nipped Lee and Akhmadaliev closed well enough to rate the nod over Tapales.

I think Anderson is the best American Heavy prospect I’ve seen since Riddick Bowe (more complete than Wilder).  Would love to see him in with a Top 10 type next.  Me thinks Arum is “posturing” Anderson as Fury’s successor (Not gonna be around much longer) and won’t go after a Joyce or Dubois (or even a Joshua or Wilder) until Tyson makes future decisions.  Just my opinion.  I was hopeful Fury/Usyk would happen this summer.  Alas my hopes were dashed yet again….

Nice to see Stevenson (finally) set down on his punches in the pocket at 135.  Don’t think anyone beats him at that weight right now.  Bob has the Lights “locked up” promotionally (Haney, Loma, Shakur).  We’ll see if Davis get’s by Garcia (no easy task IMO - tough matchup stylistically for Tank).  I think Loma gives Haney all he can handle too…. A couple of good matchups at 135 later this year.

Fundora was beating the crap out of Mendoza with the uppercut until he reached for one.  KO reminded me a bit of Sergio Martinez starching Paul Williams in 2010.  Big tall (favored) fighter took 10 after getting unexpectedly clipped….  Fundora is a good “TV fighter” - allot of action and vulnerable.

No Heavy Unification, but (should) see Monster-Fulton and (finally) Spence-Crawford this summer.  Allot of “business rumor“ that PBC debt finally forced Haymon to “play his aces” (Spence, Tank, Fulton) against the best from other stables.  Doesn’t matter the reason.  We may finally see some matchups we’ve been waiting (too long) for…..
