My dad yelled out "Measure Him" when he hit the ground... That killed me other than thinking the poor friend was dead.
Any chance we get both GGG vs Canelo and Wilder vs Klitschko this year? Could put boxing back on the map
Nothing special, really. Southpaw stance and awkward style made it tough on Wilder, but Szpilka is solid, but nothing more.

That prince Charles or whatever his name was from the first fight was a fucking douche. Until that punch Wlider didn't look as scary as he has but damn did that change quickly.
Dan Rafael @danrafaelespn 4m4 minutes ago Wed night WBC ordered Wilder & Povetkin to begin negotiations. If no deal is made purse bid will take place Feb. 26 in Mexico City. #gotreal
Tonight on Showtime: SHO, 10:35 pm EST, Rob Brant vs Decarlo Perez, , Jarrell Miller vs Donovan Dennis, Bakhtiyar Eyubov vs Jared Robinson. The first ShoBox of 2016 is a tripleheader from Tucson. Rob Brant is a middleweight prospect looking to become a contender this year as the main event guy on this show, but may not even be the best prospect in action. It's a solid lineup, pretty true ShoBox format.
Tonight at 10:35 pm EST on Showtime, ShoBox: The New Generation kicks off its 2016 schedule with a tripleheader from Tucson, Arizona, featuring middleweight prospect Rob "Bravo" Brant in the main event. Brant (18-0, 11 KO) will be facing Decarlo Perez (15-3-1, 5 KO), a fighter without the pretty record, but one on a nice win streak, and coming off of a ShoBox upset of previously unbeaten Juan Ubaldo Cabrera last August. Perez, 24, is looking to make it two straight ShoBox knock-off wins, while Brant, 25, is also aiming for a second straight ShoBox win, following a defeat of Louis Rose in October. Brant-Perez is set for 10 rounds. In heavyweight action, Jarrell "Big Baby" Miller (15-0-1, 13 KO) will face Donovan Dennis (12-2, 10 KO) in a 10-round fight that seems unlikely to go the distance. Dennis is a big puncher, and also doesn't have the best punch resistance, but this is a nice step up for Miller, too. And speaking of steps up, Kazakhstan's Bakhtiyar Erubov (9-0, 9 KO) takes a big leap in class against South Carolina's Jared Robinson (16-2-1, 7 KO) in an eight-round welterweight fight.
Move over Deontay. We've got another early contender for KO of the Year. Holy fuck. http://vine.co/v/ie96wldJ2mQ
