It was another offering from “Theater of the Unexpected Productions” this weekend. We saw The Fighting Senator Manny Pacquiao unable to use his enormous reservoir of...
How crazy is it that a 38 year old guy who fights clean, who looked like he was playing out the string in 2016-2018, when he...
I think there are a few folks in his realm who can make him look less like the ATG that some hyper enthused fight fans anointed...
Triller won the weekend in my mind. Come to think of it, though, I need to aim a barb at them. Because I think I got...
No, we are not “back to normal.” But we seem to be edging that way, right? That's how it felt, anyway, at times when I was...
Anyone choosing otherwise would have gotten a super side eye, and maybe an off the record WTF?!! When the question was asked, I knew, you knew,...
Live fights are not happening, not unless you count social media scrums. So, it can be argued that there aren't enough picks to choose from when...

His fight didn't get the traction ahead of time or the buzz on fight night as did the one in LA, but still, even in a...
