Comments Thread For: Sam Goodman injured again, pulls out of January 24 fight with Naoya Inoue

Why would Eddie do that? He doesn’t promote either fighter or the late replacement.

He promotes Akhma.... it could be s step aside envelop....

mj not steppin in on 2 weeks notice and inoue wouldnt be keen to face him on same notice as prep would be different

After this 2-week notice fight against some bum I mean. There’s no reason why Akhmadaliev can’t be scheduled next.

For those asking why not some other boxer, or why not delay, they're close enough now that they have already rented the venue and been advertising it, and sold tickets, etc, so they can't just reschedule without taking an unnecessary financial loss. It's not like anyone was expecting a different outcome for Goodman vs this new guy anyways. It's just worse for Inoue's resume and chances at fighter of the year awards.

Does anyone honestly think MJ would be willing to jump in on 2 weeks notice anyways? He wants a full camp to face Inoue.

Goodman should be stripped of his mandatory position. First the extra unnecessary fight in which he gets injured, and then all this? Come on.

Goodman is a fuccing clown. All that shiet he was talking was for show. Wasted damn near two years of everybody's time.

And the haters will still try to make this Inoue's fault somehow.
