The results are equal parts impressive and slightly concerning.This is Going Rounds, where even the robots have takes.Proudly Sponsored by:Noctane Smelling Saltshttps://noctanesmellingsalts.com

A couple of boxing events happening this weekend but let's get real, Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua are what everyone is interested in! Jake Paul could prove himself by beating someone at the level of Joshua, but if he loses does he continue boxing? Anthony Joshua Could completely destroy Jake paul and do it quickly if what we all think is possible actually happens! Either way it's an interesting fight and has some very good fights on the undercard.

Also Andrew tate makes his way to Misfits Boxing as he faces the current champ Chase Demoor. This card also has some interesting fights on the undercard.

UFC Qatar has some great fights especially at the top! The main and co-main events have big names and big implications.

The Mighty Guru Show was big for it's short life and had big views but due to backlash for the controversial comments that Guru has made it is now over. Mostly his choice because he doesn't want DJ to suffer from it. Was this a noble move by Guru or is it selfish to not be willing to change?

Francis Ngannou is apparently a lowkey menace to everyone! He bullies people and intimidates them according to Dana White and the UFC. You'll be surprised what he did to Dana and other high level people in the UFC.

Steve Garcia gets an impressive win in the main event of #ufcvegas110 to extend his win streak to 7! Lots of submissions in this one along with more eye poking and controversy! Was there also some fight fixing going on?? There are definitely rumors of this being the case.
