Hearing Shakur & Haney to Zuffa is a done deal and Zuffa wants Haney-Stevenson next, and J Prince went to the WBO to get Keyshawn instated as Haney’s mandatory to make that fight instead.

Apparently Stevenson doesn’t want the fight next, but without word from him….

Working on some ideas for Fighting Words Boxing, @TGFGoodFight12 — which launches very soon with an excellent team of contributors — as well as for @fighthype

@fightingwords2 here’s another one!

There’s a good reason the BWAA writing awards were long called the Barneys. (And why they now pay tribute to their newer namesake as the Bernies)

[Sports Book Reviews @SprtBookReviews]

One of the best books I've ever read. It's exceptional on the murky power struggles in boxing in the 40s and the corruption in the 50s. Answers so many questions I had in researching the era.

[T. Stella @TheDivineHook]

He said the R word so nothing he says is valid. Disgusting . Yall talk about how ppl in media should act but it’s okay to speak like this bc you hate the fighter. I’m over it

[David Greisman @fightingwords2]

He’s the most famous Bubois in boxing since Manny Pacquiao’s best friend.

[David Greisman @fightingwords2]

I'm far from immune to typos and brain farts, but this is literally the first fighter listed in the WBO rankings. He's their heavyweight champion, for crying out loud.

BUBOIS!

[David Greisman @fightingwords2]

Everybody's making the Ninja Turtles connection, but they're missing the more obvious explanation:

Ghostbusters 2, baby.

Turned out there was no sixth in the Champagnie room.

[David Greisman @fightingwords2]

Julian Champagnie has five three-pointers.

Sorry, Chris Rock, but will there be six in the Champagnie room?

@chegscott209 Danielle Bubois. I've seen her movies.

@Boxing_Tribune @TimBoxeo If you look closely, just like the famed Ali-Liston photo, you can spot Larry Merchant in the background…

[David Greisman @fightingwords2]

It's a numbers game for junior lightweight prospect Frankie "The Franchise" Scarboro Jr. @THEFRANCHISEF, who spoke with me about his recent win over Maxwel Montes on ProBox TV — and politely pushed back on my critiques.

@amg3200 Just to confirm, are you saying that Wemby's not that good?

[David Greisman @fightingwords2]

I don’t know that I was as good at anything at 22 as Wemby is.

I don't know that I'm as good at anything now at 44 as Wemby is at 22.

@cynthia_conte I'm so sorry for your losses, Cynthia, but am glad to hear that your sister remains in remission and recovery.

Julian Champagnie has five three-pointers.

@AtTheeCreek You know I'm not normally a horror fan, but... count me intrigued.

[David Greisman @fightingwords2]

Backrooms seems like your type of movie, @AtTheeCreek . Like if Cube had a baby with Severance.

@TeddyInebriatus The original tweet would've been "These teams are missing more shots than I do on the dating apps."

[David Greisman @fightingwords2]

These teams missing more shots than Stormtroopers.
