Combat Chronicles

As expected (by me at least) the third fight between Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin was a damp squib. What does it mean for both men going forward?

On the undercard, boxing phenom 'Bam' Rodriguez seems to be getting flak for his performance against battle-tested Israel Rodriguez. I look into that and explain why I think that's unfair.

On the MMA front, the big attraction this week was Cory 'Sandman' Sandhagen vs. Song Yadong. It lived up to expectations and tells us a lot about both fighters.

Forgive how depressed I sound through much of this episode, for this was ultimately a depressing card.

It's been a while but it was NOT a hiatus: I've simply been busy providing content for my patrons over at the Combat Chronicles Patreon!

Loads to talk about this week but maybe not what you'd hoped for! First, a new British boxing drugs scandal, followed by news that the best heavyweight in the world is likely to take on a fight absolutely no one is asking for. Then, a look at how Patricio Pitbull diffused a quality operator in Adam Borics and how inspite of being a Bellator stalwart the Brazilian is a true modern great. And then, two mainstays of the Dutch and international combat sports scenes (hopefully) settled their differences once and for all as Alistair Overeem fought Badr Hari in a rubber match at GLORY: Collision 4. In terms of kickboxing content be sure to check out www.beyondkick.com an exciting new endeavour that features some great content from some friends of mine: you won't regret it! The site looks gorgeous and the content is awesome!

Hopefully a fun episode and don't worry: it's not every month I'll be making HUGE audio documentaries for the patrons so we should resume something like a regular schedule from here on out or at least in November. You know what you've gotta' do if you're clamouring for more material from yours truly...
