This is one helluva beautiful heavyweight fight!
AW!
Lewis ran out of gas versus a veteran. Not good!
Superb performance by Hunt though. I shoulda known better than to pick against him, but I gotta pull for Lewis. Love that guy.
Great fight, good stop, bad picks by me.
Lewis says he’s probably gonna retire, only 32, I hope that’s just the disappointment talking.
I call mulligans for both of us!
I’ll take the mulligans!
Yeah, Lewis said his back went out on him in the fight.
I’ve had my back go out. It sucks! I’ve had to use an old person’s 4 legged walker to get out of bed when I was 43. Luckily I’ve been able to work that sucker back into good shape since that time. But a bad back can be a hell of a thing.
I hope it’s just disappointment too. He’s a real nice guy, I like rooting for him.
This circus:
Floyd Mayweather-Conor McGregor fight finalized for Aug. 26

Wow.
Well it better be good, it’s kept Conor out the cage this long!
The good news is that it’s supposedly going to be fought at 154 lbs., which should favor McGregor.
So they fight Mayweather’s sport using gloves that Mayweather’s more familiar with, but at a size that works to McGregor’s advantage and with a slight edge in reach for McGregor.
There was a fight pass only event from Singapore, not sure when it “aired”, this morning I guess, I hate these events especially with odd start times,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UFC_Fight_Night:_Holm_vs._Correia
Holly Holm (back down at 135 after failing to win the title at 145) KOed Bethe Correia in the main event.
Andrei Arlovski lost a decision to Marcin Tybura and should probably hang it up now after 5 losses in a row.
Sick Bellator Card next week (Sat), partly on Spike and unfortunately partly on PPV. Sonnen vs. Wanderlei Silva
Fedor vs. Mitrione
Also a UFC event next Sunday on FS1
[[Sick Bellator Card next week (Sat), partly on Spike and unfortunately partly on PPV. Sonnen vs. Wanderlei Silva

So looking forward to those fights- be very interestingness to see if Fedor still has it-
Too bad about arlovski- he was one of my favorite fighters for a long time- Hate to see legends lose their edge- Mirko Crocop was really sad to see him lose the way he did- another true legend-
Definitely agree on the Bellator card...gonna be a doozy for sure.
Thanks for the update! Keep up the good work.
