Really, if you love, or even like, the sport of boxing, August 3rd this year is a fight card with six matchups for the ages.
It is that good, in fairness.
It takes place in Los Angeles.
It brings together many of the top promoters and advisers too, Haymon, Hearn all have fighters on the card.
All courtesy of the great nation of Saudi Arabia, bringing a sublime card to America courtesy of his excellency — here it is:
- Terence Crawford v Israil Madrimov
- Isaac Cruz v Jose Valenzuela
- Andy Ruiz v Jarrell Miller
- Tim Tszyu v Vergil Ortiz Jr
- David Morrell v Radivoje Kalajdzic
- Andy Cruz v Antonio Moran
Let that sink in.
Big time boxing has never been as big and good as it is now and later in the year.
Unbelievable, really, outstanding work.
The thing is, too, there could be more added to it before August.
Those six fights in their own way are all quite special.
Titles on the line, heavyweight dust ups, coming of age fights between young fighters, a pound for pound legend stepping up in weight and a genuine world calibre pugilistic Pitbull.
Roll on.
