Paul took it easy on Mike, didn’t want to hurt him.
Lol he was not confident enough to go right at Tyson much of the fight he's half his age with a decent reach advantage so it either a poor fight or a show wwe level lol

Like I said, he didn’t want to hurt him. This wasn’t a serious fight. Imagine paying to see it?

Mike will be lighting up a reefer as soon as he gets to the dressing room.

Taylor vs. Serrano was the real highlight of the night. An absolute slobber knocker. One of the better boxing matches I can recall watching.

Paul/Tyson was about what I expected. Tyson started strong, but slowed down after he got tagged with a few in the third round. I think Paul let up, or could have been a lot more aggressive, but didn’t seem super interested in pasting a near senior citizen.

Probably did a lot for the sport. And it’s impressive that a 58-year-old landed any punches and withstood any from someone in their physical prime.

Serrano got absolutely robbed of the win. Brutal decision by the judges.

Twitter alternative, seems to be taking off lately. Ive been looking for an excuse to delete twitter and sports media seems to be making the transition over, that was all that was keeping me

The only real reason I had Twitter was to follow hockey insiders and their breaking news. (Dhaliwal, Friedman, Dreger, etc.) Have they all begun posting on Blue Sky as well?

Just delete social media and play with your kids/live your real life instead. You'll forget about it in three weeks and your life/friendships/relationships will get better fast, guaranteed.

I only have twitter & blue sky accounts. Both are heavily curated and only about hockey. I keep notifications off and have never had them on.

I never used Twitter but from what I understand it's emerged as the most legitimate alternative to what twitter used to be and a lot of people are actually moving to it.
Most of the major sports writers/reporters are moving to Bluesky, which is making it viable as an alternative to Twitter if your primary use for it is following sports news/chatter.

I have both. Bluesky, right now, definitely has a nicer feel. From a UI perspective, the app and website are generally more functional and load faster. From a content/discussion perspective, it's a lot lighter. Most of the MAGAturds/trolls, crypto bots/shills, and generally assholish people are not there and making the comments of any post horrible.
