Zuffa ends its broadcast with the main event fighter unable to get back to the locker room, getting oxygen while sitting in the stands. I guess not everyone has the strongest journalistic sense but it seems like that circumstance was worth waiting around for a few more minutes.🤷♂️

What a quote that is. Great article.
A few of us spoke to Filip Hrgovic today as the new IBF heavyweight champion offered a candid insight into the punishment he endured before stopping Moses Itauma in a shock win. He also explained why Itauma could be "unbeatable" if his mentality hardens

Whole Foods has been in midtown for 10+ years. Apple and Gucci have stores downtown. Not sure why the concept of a Target is outrageous
Replying to @omarisankofa
Why would they build down there? Police response is horrible, they’re more concerned about helping take care of the mayor’s personal issues, and the rent/land prices are outrageous

Promoters in this era will sign a fighter they think is more marketable over a fighter they think is more talented. Then they have BOX out the more talented fighter with politics to keep them away from the so called more marketable fighter. Just sign the dam TALENT!!

Rafael Manuel's ‘FILIPIÑANA’ is projected to hit $300,000 this weekend from its limited North American release.
The Philippines' entry to the Oscars Best International Feature previously broke the record for @FilmForumNYC’s biggest opening weekend of the decade.

In 2009, Kevin Durant drove me around OKC for an @nytimes story.
He went unrecognized at an airport pitstop and later went to a rookie James Harden’s house to play video games.
Few knew they’d reshape the NBA.

Face Of Boxing talk is indicative how far boxing has fallen off. We weren’t debating this kind of foolishness 20+ years ago. We were debating about who would win the big fight coming up. I’m talking about going in the barbershop💈 and the whole shop is debating. Not about a face.
Always had them pegged as a couple of straight shooters with "upper management" written all over 'em
