Was it supposed to be?
I mean - the viewers who bought this I assume were aware of that

Really good fight tonight for those that really like the "sweet science" aspect of boxing. Haney vs Loma. Might be the two of the top four smartest and most skilled fighters around. Probably won't see a knockout, but it should be a great chess match.

I recorded it but haven't watched it yet. Thanks for the heads-up.

The fight about to start on ESPN I recommend. Really intriguing. Top level fighters. I have no idea who's going to win

If you want an easy hundred bucks bet a grand or so on Jared Anderson tonight. Should be 30-1 favorite. Was supposed to have a really awesome fight against Zhan Kossobutskiy but the Kazakh couldn't get a visa, so now it's going to be a destruction.

I recorded it and the UFC fights on ESPN last night, but haven't watched them yet.

Should I skip the boxing?

Yeah. One round was interesting. Maybe two.

I was going to but the $109.99/year subscription price gave me pause.

Just watched a 10 minute summary that showed highlights of each round in sequence on YouTube.

Didn't agree with the result, based on that.

I was almost certainly going to purchase the UFC PPV fight tonight on ESPN+, but I'm not going to now. Strickland, the fighter in the video, is in the main event. I hope he loses. I just saved $80.00

MAGA UFC fighter Sean Strickland went on a ridiculously hateful diatribe against the LGBTQIA+ community in the lead up to his fight against Dricus Du Plessis.

Fighter Vomits Up Pure Hatred as ESPN, Disney Stay Silent

An almost 60 year old Mike Tyson is going to box Jake Paul.

This is one of those, please people, do the right thing, and look away from the accident so there aren't more accidents, but people are going to look at that accident.

Oh no doubt.
I'm sure that'll be what most of the people tuning in will be hoping as well.
