When I grow up, I want to be just like Fight Opinion...Excellent work here, explaining the thuggish creativity behind the TKO/Saudi push to amend the Ali Act: themmadraw.com/p/tko-and-ufc-…

Re: Ali Act slashing...I also enjoy the corporate media stooges all revealing themselves by writing up the amendment using only TKO talking points issued to them (because the bill hadn't been released to the public yet)...Mannix, Coppinger...We're looking at you...

wondering how these puppet TKO/Saudi boxing writers-- who crow about loving the sport and its athletes-- will play it off when purses are capped and fighters are screwed under the monopoly...

If I could summarize the Ali ā€˜revival’ Act in a tweet it’s this. - The Ali Act prohibits promoters from having coercive contracts. The ā€˜revival’ Act says promoters can have all the coercive contracts they want if they create their own titles.

Been looking at writers on the Turki/Ring Magazine payroll and their coverage of the proposed Ali Act amendment. (Not) Surprisingly, most are silent, non-committal, with the top-of-the-bootlicker-food-chain guys leaning positive, w/ write-ups using TKO talking points. Shocking!

Not watching the TR/ESPN show, but that TV deal was a help to nobody...ESPN buried boxing and Top Rank didn't help their cause over the long haul with their matchmaking...No reason to be sad over the end of the deal...

For a couple years before this fight, I had been screaming about the need to inspect Margarito's gloves and/or wraps...So much that I almost got kicked out of my own website's message board. Remember? No More Saso...This fight just confirmed my conviction...

The scope of the wrongness mixed up with the effort to hobble the Ali Act is beyond my reach...too much to wrap my arms around at the moment...Glad Erik Magraken is doing the heavy lifting, along with guys like Fight Opinion

...I love and respect boxers so much that I'm gonna work for the benefit of those trying to strip fighters of their rights and protections...

Funny how so few who "love" boxing and make their living off boxing won't actually defend the sport and the men and women who sacrifice so much to be participants...(Almost) everyone is just rolling over...

Objectively, now as an outsider looking in, boxing buzz has never been weaker and more limited to the fringe of a niche, even with a supposed mega-fight about a month away...The life is being strangled from the sport...I'm sure glad Turki's saving boxing...
