Tell me again what's IPTV?

Quote:

Internet Protocol television
Internet Protocol television (IPTV) is a system through which tv services are delivered using the internet protocol suite over a packet-switched network such as a LAN or the internet, instead of being delivered through traditional terrestrial, satellite signal, and cable television formats.


I use Eminence. You have to use PayPay to subscribe. I get most PPV, NFL, NBA, latest movies and so much more for $25.00 monthly. If you want to prescribe I'll PM you instructions.


Nice, sure, PM me. Let me check it out.

Gervonta Davis vs. Ryan Garcia Sat 4/22. This is Tank's toughest fight to date. I won't have to pay $84.99. My IPTV will carry it. I like Tank to win.

I find this a tough one to predict. I think Tank is rightfully the favourite, but then I also don't doubt Garcia having the speed and power to cause Tank some big problems.

First boxing fight in a while I'm actually excited for, really annoys me about the sport in general that the best guys seldom fight each other.

I'm with you on both points. I pick Tank to win but Ryan's speed, size, and boxing skills are gonna be a problem for Davis.

Garcia's a natural 140-pounder. When he rehydrates he's going to come in with a huge weight advantage. If he catches Tank will he be able to take the punch?

Since promoters took over the fight game the best fighting the best is rare. The Ray Leonard vs Marvelous Marvin Haggler days is a thing of the past.

There is a rehydration clause that will mitigate Garcia's size advantage somewhat (or perhaps even more than expected). My analysis and prediction for the fight is here:

I think Garcia couldn've gotten up. I thought he would. Tank said he thought he was going to get up. Tank took Ryan's heart.

Garcia looked a bit shook after getting knocked down in the second. Then he started to get aggressive again in the 7th but that body shot was too much for him I guess.

Only saw highlights. I am skeptical of boxing and this didn’t help. I get that body shots are heavy but from what I saw it seemed like he was bowing out. With all due respect of course.

No if he's hit flush in the liver, he's not getting back up period. I've seen it in MMA. That reaction is exactly how it happens every time and I've seen it A LOT. Shot hits..takes a few seconds for the body to register...collapse. Over.

Bit disappointing in the end tbh. After the knockdown Ryan seemed unable to work out Tank and what to do.

Not sure there would ne much point in any rematch, or where either man goes from here now.

I don't know. Tank didn't sit down on the punch. Maybe he just hit the sweet spot. My skepticism is because Ryan was ready to get up before the count reached 10 and just didn't want to. He didn't stumble or look at all hurt. Looked like he just gave up. Take it full screen. LINK

This. Liver shot shuts down the body. There's no conspiracy or "quitting" going on here. It's like saying someone should continue to play in a football game after getting concussed mid-game, or they're "quitting."

Disagree. He could have taken the 8. He said no. This is a prize fight. This is fundamentally the problem with boxing. Reading about the fight it appears the judges overlooked him being knocked down. Dont know if true though as I didn't watch it live.

Shakur Stevenson 20 0 10 wins by KO ain't no joke. That fight ranks with a Terence Crawford vs Errol Spence Jr. as a match that should be. Two fights I don't think we'll see.

Both PPV I'm not sure of the times.

Canelo won a unanimous decision. Ryder has heart. I think he fought most of the fight with a broken nose.
