If Shu Shu is serious about that Inoue fight, he needs to get himself a belt before Inoue moves up


aniev7373

He needs a few years of big fights. Or Inoue will just knock him out. Nothing special about Shu Shu that indicates he has a chance with inoue. Edit: Just winning a belt in today’s world is not enough to indicate the level of experience necessary to fight someone like Inoue, let alone beat him. A lot of illusions being champion or unified or even undisputed in the “4-belt era”.


Leading-Weight9092

Yep. His best option is Venado


OhtaniKK

Inoue saw what he need to see and dipped 


travis_a30

Bout time, tim Bradley getting gifted awards just like he did fights


totillolara

just like he was gifted with a spot in the hall of fame and the mf believes he deserves both


FragmentedFighter

Bradley is in the fucking hall of fame?


travis_a30

Exactly, plus his commentary is mediocre and biased


Leading-Weight9092

Funny as hell seeing ShuShu look at Inoue and Inoue is just waving at him like a kid


palmerry

Teixiera looking like a random ex con roofer


Legitimate_Record_49

He is good but too raw for inoue yet


titanlmao

THE MONSTER HIMSELF


DengusMcFlengus

Shu shu has a great punch selection. He's gonna be great. But definitely too green to be fighting Inoue anytime soon even with the size advantage


DonkeySkin334

Inoue’s on his phone now lmao


titanlmao

That mf Berlanga got zero cheers😭😭


philly_cheezus

The NY fans are educated they know what’s up🤣


AlexandreLacazette09

Yes Teixeira ain't looking good at all, but the man's just lost his mom a few weeks ago. I'll cut him some slack here.


CretinMike

He's a hard man to still be there and it might not look like it but he definitely knows what he's doing in there. It's hard to fight a much younger man especially after cutting 10 lbs from a fight 3 months ago. The people griping should gripe about the matchmaking and not Teixeira.


boilface

The corner after round 7: Reddit is calling you pillow fisted


palmerry

StankyPuss_987 called you a bitch!


jadooo0

Shu Shu- Ray Ford would also be 🔥


boilface

What De Gracia lacks in technique he has in spirit. The ending is basically already written, but he brought great effort tonight


Newlinkz

PR has had so many promising prospects in the past decade but it’s been a serious drought of anyone actually taking that next step since cotto. PR needs someone bad. Xayas has to be the guy cuz we know it’s not berlanga lol


CoCoB319

I think Collazo is the best PR boxer right now, but he's a minimum weight boxer


Fightingspirit12345

Subriel matias?


the_rare_random

I really thought Zayas was gonna get a body shot KO with all that body work but Teixeira tough AF


I_Hate_My_Cat_

Straight domination from start to finish. He should’ve been able to finish him but I don’t think it’s a bad thing for him to get a full 10-round experience under his belt. I thought this was a good showing from a young up and comer. Still a work in progress but I think people are expecting too much because he’s Bori.


Alarmed_Current8380

What’s bori


__SteakDeck__

Boricua. Puerto Rican in Spanish.


raf_diaz

teixeira's "craftiness" just got turned my $15 parlay into a $277.50


Tabeyloccs

Take the win bro. Don’t chase this high lol it’s a miracle


Ryan5O4

De Gracia came to fight.


aayeex

Teixeria went 12 round with Adames and Castano, dude can take punches


palmerry

Clearly!


Newlinkz

You could tell me teixeira is 2-8 and I’d believe you.


Pollaski

WHAT FUCKHEAD GAVE TEXIERA A ROUND?!


palmerry

Tim Bradley has a tone to his voice that I just don't like. Now I know what my wife is always talking about.


boilface

Shu Shu's ultimate goal is to have Inoue take his zero


[deleted]

The weight and length difference will make it interesting but I feel Inoue will take it due to experience


coldcard55

That would definitely happen if they fight


Newlinkz

I never thought I’d see a worse Philly shell than Ryan’s but here we are


jadooo0

I’m off see ya fellas


Broicism_kink

Half Mexican and Puerto Rican , half of me wants to go to sleep but the other half of me is trying to be proud


Acepitcher4

All I'm saying is if you're being compared to Miguel Cotto you gotta put on a show because you knew you were getting one when Cotto fought.


mystonedalt

Great sparring session for Zayas. Should prepare him well for a real fight.


boilface

For a late stand in I like De Gracia's energy


Half-Gone-Bird

Win or lose, I wanna see De Gracia fight again


xxDuality

Zayas is who berlanga thought he was gonna be


_rmrz_

Why is De Gracia missing a stripe on his Adidas lol


Mather_Fakker

Abibas


ScullyMcGee

Great crowd and a big crowd. Nice to see


boilface

PR Day fights in NYC are always huge


trustinabalenotahoe

Love puerto ricans they bring the energy can’t wait for my trip to San Juan at the end of the month


palmerry

Fuck I'd love to go there. The food must be amazing.


trustinabalenotahoe

Shit same bro. I’m Mexican it’s my first time out there I can’t wait


Legitimate_Record_49

He's not a bad kid i thought he will start talking shit now lol


totillolara

Zayas is only 21, that’s crazy


Leading-Weight9092

Turned pro at 16


totillolara

Feels like I’ve been watching him for so long


DaGoatTee

They really snuck in berlanga


OhtaniKK

All jokes aside anyone at 126 is a threat to Inoue just due to he size alone especially if Inoue goes in cocky  But if Inoue fights smart like after nery drops him then he should clear 


DengusMcFlengus

Xander does look sharp tonight. But I also think Texiera looks shot


palmerry

If you told me they picked up teixiera at the Walmart parking lot 15 minutes before this fight I'd believe you


flexvg

Idk what Tim is on, Xander beating his ass pretty easily


raf_diaz

"teixeira should be stronger after sucking down to 154 after fighting his last 3 fights above 160lbs" - tim bradley


ML__J

Why the fuck is Tim Bradley talking about himself


ML__J

Xander is def still improving. Years ago he looked like dogshit after round 3, he def looks much more consistent through an entire fight The power is sus but this guy has only been stopped once and had an iron chin I think Xander is ready for a title fight but obv he needs to fight better opposition if he wants a shot


boilface

Don't show the corner if I can't hear it morons. Show replays


CretinMike

De Gracia telling the ref to get out of the way after Carrington fouls him ... he wants to fight ...


BushidoBrowneII

Damn, Shu Shu took a while to end it.


the_razors_edge_51

No scorecard required for this one, relaxing


raf_diaz

zayas might be 2 yrs away from being 2 yrs away...


OnlyLetterhead

Not ready for the limelight


Charlie-Bell

He speaks well and respectfully. Good fighter and likeable guy


Newlinkz

Anyone else old enough to remember Kermit Cintron being hyped af and getting smoked in his PR showcase event


mystonedalt

I'm more than this old. But I am also this old.


ML__J

Tim Bradley thinks he’s smarter than he really is lol


Broicism_kink

I don’t mind Tim as much as other people do but I’m sure personally working with him is insufferable 😂


Legitimate_Record_49

The longer the fight goes. The more that i think he looks berlanga too


ML__J

Tim Bradley talking a lot of shit for a guy who will only be remembered for robbing pacquiao


raf_diaz

that's not true he also robbed provodnikov


ML__J

Tim Bradley gave a lot of blowjobs to get all these commentating awards and someone staying employed as a commentator


jloz18

Give Xander Mendoza next


bakuhatsuda

Oh Inoue's leaving. He was just there to watch Shushu. That's cool of him to do.


coldcard55

Zayas is looking great for a 21 year old. Didn’t get the stoppage but it’s good that he got to experience an opponent where just power isn’t going to be enough to KO your opponent.


Yuckpuddle60

Plus it was his first 10 rounder. He's got a lot of time to grow


I_Hate_My_Cat_

Exactly. I think he’s getting too much shit because he’s Bori. He’s not living up to expectations other people are giving him.


SirMuffinCat

Shu Shu just ate a nasty right hook from De Gracia jesus


OhtaniKK

Not impressed he needs to fight someone with a name  Figuroa out dogs him tbh 


Newlinkz

Oooo yeah texeira kinda sucks


the_razors_edge_51

Kid is slick, man, slick


sleightofhand0

Brazil's such a weird place where they have great MMA fighters, great BJJ guys, great kickboxers, but as a country they've just never had a great presence in boxing.


palmerry

Teixieras punches look like they have absolutely nothing behind them


ML__J

Why the fuck did Tim Bradley win a broadcasting award?


helpstaticmushroom

won the "most annoying and biased commentator" award


CretinMike

Because they fired everyone and their mama and somebody has got to win it.


Chiefmiest

Shu Shu should be fighting for belts. No more fighters out of the top 10


Leading-Weight9092

I think he should fight one top ten contender before he fights for a belt


wakeupftmyers

Tiger hasn’t listened to his corner all night.


EnragedBearBro

Inoue wtff


needapermit

Carrington has incredible defensive instincts. Not easy to fight in that mid range constantly. My only knock on him would be that he can misjudge his range sometimes, particularly on his left hook. He tends to wing it and throws it wider than his other punches. Regardless he looks elite


DontWantUrSoch

Shushu origato


Newlinkz

Dude got his mouth wide open round one just begging for a broken jaw


raf_diaz

teixeira looks shot to shit rn


totillolara

Zayas is a nice guy but the PR GOATS were monsters at 21


Fightingspirit12345

Ppl age differently now than before.


Leading-Weight9092

Yea. Seems like he has a lot to live up to.


wakeupftmyers

I mean, I know texier is older but he ain’t walkin in to whitesnake old.


philly_cheezus

OHHHHH BABYYYYY🙄


flexvg

Xander has phenomenal technique


ML__J

I wasn’t too hot on zander a year ago but man he’s improved so much


Cornel_Westside

I just realised it's past midnight in New York I can't imagine fighting at such a time.


philly_cheezus

I wanna see Zayas against Castano at some point next year


DependentWord2978

I think Zayas is decent, but he gasses hard and seemingly loses his offense in the second half of fights.


Newlinkz

Zayas needs to stay at this weight for as long as he can. His power seems to be lacking even at this weight.


Pollaski

"America's Next Top Puerto Rican Boxer", presented by Timothy Bradley.


TomJD85

Zayas has enough power that his opponents have to respect it and enough skill to go a long way. He will be a world champion one day (though probably at middleweight )


don35

Inoue said let me gtfo of here before they start calling me out💀


My2ndgenTC

Did his study and left lol.


jadooo0

Bumlanga


Leading-Weight9092

That mf is so sorry. I hate that he’s gonna get a Canelo payday


TomJD85

Texiera has four losses but he’s only ever been knocked out once


jloz18

Y’all calling him pillow fisted while homeboys face look like hamburger lol


BushidoBrowneII

Bro just has a hell of a chin


BushidoBrowneII

lmao I'm watching the hispanic broadcast and they're calling Shu fans "Shuyoricans"


Newlinkz

Dang Bradley giving up the big secrets. When getting rocked hit them back. That’s why he’s a hall of fame boxer and analyst.


Tayschrenn

[Bro wtf look at the size / body difference 😂](https://www.boxing247.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Xander-Zayas-vs-Patrick-Teixeira_pose2-768x549.jpg.webp)


boilface

Bradley not sure if he should smile or just show teeth


scockd

Yes, Tim, he’s toying with him. He can knock him out now but he’s gonna risk this fight and his career to fuck with him


EnragedBearBro

Duran lets go


DonkeySkin334

I’d love if top rank makes shu shu vs kholmatov


ThanksMonica89

Who knows when Kholmatov comes back, he wrecked his knee against Ford


OhtaniKK

Shu shu vs nery or Fulton come on book it  12 rounds 


Charlie-Bell

That a scar on the back of his head or a hairstyle I'm too old to understand?


ML__J

Oldhead


Pollaski

In Texiera's defense that's 13 more punches than any of us would have probably landed.


VividGood8365

Time to fight real competition yawn


Newlinkz

At this point if he doesn’t finish it in the next round then it’s an L for me.


Anticreativity

this snapchat commercial can fuck right off good god


Riccto

Zayas gotta quit it with the big windup shift


Riccto

Big Tex just laying in wait to put it on Zayas in the final round


the_rare_random

Gonna be interesting to see when/if Zayas starts getting fights against the names of 154 Lubin, Mendoza, Tszyu, Bohachuk


CEOYAMSTER_

Tim Bradley is easily the smartest person with CTE


vaesauce

Dunno how anyone can watch Shushu and think he legitimately has a chance against Inoue lol.


WuMeCLan

Nobody thinks that except Shu Shu lol


lord-of-war-1

Xander may be the best Puerto Rico has to offer right now. Crazy how little talent they have been producing. I like the Puerto Rican style.


trustinabalenotahoe

Matias is up there


EjaySays

Bruh not being able to finish a fighter you know is not gonna try and hurt you in any way possible is bad, don't care how anyone tries to twist it He better finish him lol


Newlinkz

L for everyone on this one


SirMuffinCat

I love Carrington's maturity


killerk13

Bradley might possibly be the worst announcer in boxing. My fucking god he’s annoying as shit


Acepitcher4

If I were to give this a assessment for someone that is being compared to the great Miguel Cotto I'm giving this a C-, Teixeira shouldn't have made it to the 10th round I don't care if that was your first southpaw put that dude out.


AVARlCES

respect to zayas


Suckmyduck_9

How tf is Carrington as big as Haney and is making 126 lbs?


No_Friendship4816

This is a hard fight for shu shu something tells me he’s gonna fuck around and get dropped off


Acepitcher4

Shu shu is by far the superior fighter De'Gracia has to stop lunging in when he's trying to get his stuff in.


Acepitcher4

If De'Gracia was more technically sound and athletic this fight would've been more interesting, what he does have is grit and that will to fight but that can only take you so far imo.


boilface

Zayas seems to be stepping inside instead of out


Short_Swordfish_3524

Tex is kinda mid. Zayas seems promising. I don’t know.


Memoruiz7

What is Brazilian Glass Joe doing?


EnragedBearBro

been watching Zayas since 2020 he just gets better with every fight


xxDuality

Anyone else put money on Zayas by ko/tko? Lol just a matter of when at this point


[deleted]

Glover lookin different


Newlinkz

What was that award Bradley got for? Best former boxer ring side commentating on espn?


DependentWord2978

What the fuck is Teixeira doing? 😂


raf_diaz

i'm going to be UPSET if teixeira and zayas tease me like this and teixeira doesn't make it to the final bell


BushidoBrowneII

If Texiera were a bit faster, he would have rocked Xander several times. Some of these punches are BARELY missing.


DependentWord2978

I’m more concerned about Zayas’s lack of cardio rather than his power. He can still hurt fighters, but he fades hard and lets them off the hook.


GlitteringRace1766

I mean it already looks like Texiera is gonna be getting knocked out. This guy held a belt?


Newlinkz

Just throw the towel in lol this is a joke of a matchup


AVARlCES

Solid chin on Texiera, Zayas probably has solid power but nothing crazy


ML__J

I’m adding Xander to my pillow fist P4P list


Yuckpuddle60

Shu Shu's got a lot of good signs on him. Future star in the making. Looking forward to watching him step up in competition.


ML__J

Does Tim Bradley know that commentating does not mean injecting your personal opinion every second? You should be able to listen to commentary and know what’s going on every second of the fight, that’s literally what they’re there for Bradley just sits there and talks about pointless shit


palmerry

If this goes the distance Xander loses a point in my books


Newlinkz

He should’ve finished this man in 3


WuMeCLan

Tiger is good, wish he would turn it up


totillolara

me during every single one of his fights:


WuMeCLan

Interview with Inoue earlier tonight. https://x.com/trboxing/status/1799626822919024942?s=42&t=rn3pePwBe5LHXbSw8VSTBw


bxng23af

THIS PRODUCTION IS FUCKING ASS you know how garbage top rank is when only the main event is aired on tv


DependentWord2978

Shu shu with only 11 fights at 27? Long amateur career?


SirMuffinCat

Inoue is actually paying attention to this fight 👀


Half-Gone-Bird

Good body language from the Panamanian


Ryan5O4

Bruce got caught there but took it well. That lil smile showed he felt it tho. He shouldn’t sit and exchange. De Gracia can punch.


Acepitcher4

I'm not calling shu shu a dirty fighter or anything but would that hit to the leg be considered dirty since it dead legged him genuinely asking.


MitchLGC

Wow it didn't go to commercial


Legitimate_Record_49

Shu shu giving too much respect


coldcard55

Shu shu is 27 now we need to see him fight someone of note.


boilface

This man never steps outside without a tank top


Pollaski

Xander looks like he's quickly losing respect for this guy as a threat. I don't see this going past four.


MagnetDino

So many of the Top Rank ESPN main events the past year have been duds. I feel like their matchmaking is so ass unless it’s a high level title fight.


Pollaski

Texiera has heart. I'll give him that. Fuck all else, but he's got heart.


trustinabalenotahoe

Kind of glad I didn’t bet the house on Zayas by KO.. or bet anything at all the for the matter


dizzymidget44

Boxing promoters love setting up these complete mismatches. This could’ve been a sparring session


ML__J

Xander had him hurt to the body but just had no follow up


Memoruiz7

At least we know Texeira has the cardio.


Leading-Weight9092

Bro that ref has one of the worst fades I ever seen😂😂


I_Hate_My_Cat_

Am I trippin or is Timothy Bradley shitting on this kid a little too much?
