Boxing is definitely a tough spot. A major promotion company just let go of half of their staff. It’s terrible to hear when people lose their jobs. Let hope boxing gets back up soon.

that version of Ryan Garcia would give a lot of guys issues. Best two-handed performance Ive seen out of him #boxing

I know someone who has been saying that for several years #me

In the wake of Hitchins' withdrawal more than a few people have called for a return to same-day weigh-ins. In this clip from 2023, @SmittyBoxing has called for just that (and has for years before that), and Hall of Famer @NigelBoxing agrees. I do as well. It's getting ridiculous.

Per source: Franchon Crews-Dezurn's knee and ankle are swollen following the brawl at Saturday's weigh-in in Detroit. Plan is to see how it looks/feels in the morning and consult the doctor. Fight with Shields could be in jeopardy. #boxing

I'd imagine Hitchins becoming "ill" is related to the same day weigh-in. The IBF has to get of that shit. The fighters waste a camp, dont get paid. the fans lose a quality fight from the card and the IBF doesn't get paid either. Just assinnine rule. #boxing #BarriosRoach

Floyd aggravated us to death about how he’s made smart investments with his money. Recent reports say he owe ppl and been getting robbed. Now he bout to get back in the ring at half a hundred years old. Valuable lesson learned here …
