Tuesday means podcast day here at Bad Left Hook, and the latest episode of Prophets of Goom with John Hansen and myself (I’m Scott) is live! Well, not live, but it’s — you can listen to it.
This week we’re taking a look ahead to Saturday’s Gervonta “Tank” Davis vs Rolando Romero fight, and of course looking back on this past weekend’s action including crushing wins for David Benavidez and Janibek Alimkhanuly, Floyd Mayweather’s exhibition event turning into a form of psychological experiments on its viewers, Joshua Buatsi, Alen Babic, Jamel Herring, and more!
We also discuss the modern pay-per-view market and the sliding scales of success compared to previous eras, the news of the past week, and more!
