Good night of Boxing
Cmon Callum Simpson, tough one this, proper test 
Edit - and just watched the Wardley fight, battered until he lands dynamite 
|
|
|
|
Moses Itauma looks very, very special, devastating power. Brave performance by Balagun but this lad looks like we could have another British heavyweight champion in the future 
Think he needs some proper fight time and the stamina, blowing everyone away, what a right hand that was for the finish 
And Essuman, 38!

Daniel Levy has just given him the keys to the Spurs trophy room

Eh? Not a hope Benn even nearly won. Wildly swinging shots that miss doesn't win fights.

GET IN Eubank
|
|
|
|
Absolutely NO ****ING WAY 
Corrupt as **** 
I don’t give a **** what they say, that was not even close!
Eubank can’t fight 12 rounds at somebody elses tempo , but I’ve always seen this.

In reply to Post #3258
Did yarde and Dubois appear on the scene around the same time? Knew straight away they both had great futures.....come on bennnnnn!!
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3257
Thinking the same, this could be a cracker pal
Edit - you look at Yarde, he is superbly conditioned and packing some muscle, then you think about Bivol and BB they are just super lean, super conditioned and make the weight
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3256
Yarde 100% for me
|
|
|

In reply to Post #3255
Up against it Smith, past his best, warrior
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3254
Too much publicity from eubank giving me the impression his mind not where it should be so benn for me. Cant see Smith winning either,the grey haired chap.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3253
Both a pair of idiots for me 
To be fair, there is some bad blood so it could be a cracker, the dream for me would be that they both knocked each other out at the same time
On paper you have to fancy Eubank, more fights and more ring time, all depends on what Benn is like, other than an angry man!
Either way, hope it’s good for the fans and neither gets seriously hurt. I just feel Eubank is crushing for a bruising fate and all
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3252
Benn or eubank.....benn will be too busy for eubank I think,but as I say everytime I make a prediction I get it wrong.
|
|
|

Sam Egginton, reading this you will know I’m one of his biggest fans, absolute warrior, under dog, tested again and came through it, heart of a lion, tough as **** Warrior
When you step in the ring with that man get ready, your in for a night lol, no excuses 
Guess I will never see him live now.
And, edit. how to spoil a good night. Well that confirmed what we already knew, BW is a proper ****, can’t wait for him to get sparked, # ****er. Disrespectful, it was a mismatch first time around and good on the fans for booing him, ****
Another fake Jesus preacher. This game is about respect, nothing else, that’s it
|
|
|
|
Let’s see if Ben Whittaker the quitter gets the job done tonight
To be fair, talented fighter but he does not like to get hit, not good in the sport of boxing
Got to show his minerals tonight 
|
|
|
|
Some leather exchanged there!!!
Won’t spoil it for you but the loser needs to hang his gloves up now
What a fight
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3248
BJS retired and bloated now I believe, good boxer but he met Canelo
The Rhino is out in May I think, tough man!
Eubank and Benn, April, hate to say it, could turn out to be a good fight from the pair of clowns
Joyce and PH too, be a tough fight for Joyce that
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3247
No recent big bouts sadly,josh Kelly only fights once a year, what's happened to Billy jo Saunders? Dave rhino what's his face still trying I believe? Would love to watch benn v eubank but I wont pay for it,I do think some of these guys need to be more active but then again I have never even seen a boxing ring let alone have someone punch my face in for 30 minutes lol

Some performance that from Price, completely different class, superb movement and hand speed

What a fight
I had Bivol by a round, WTF
Seriously, incredible, both fighters unbelievable conditioning

Very close nowt in it for me

Beterbiev for me

In reply to Post #3231
Well, this should be an absolute cracker. I am going for Bivol again, boxes BB head off in the first 8 rounds, BB wins four if he is lucky and gets the win be default again
Two great fighters, what a treat

Parker Class always shows through

Dubois pulled out, bakole v parker now. Could be a better fight imo
|

In reply to Post #3224
He gonna have to be moving well that’s for sure!
I do think DD is touchable though
|
|
|

In reply to Post #3223
Parker will get slaughtered from start to finish.....wonder if I can finally get a prediction correct lol
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3222
Agree
I’m looking forward to the Shakur Stevenson vs. Floyd Schofield, both upcoming superstars, both great boxers, should be a cracker!
Main event, massive Bivol fan and I want him to win, thought he did last time, the questions is, what can he do this time, can’t see him knocking BB out? What I have seen of some of the shambolic decisions over there, whoever is on the front foot seems to edge it regardless of clean punch count
And this is a test for DD. I like Parker, great boxer but DD has serious power. Defining moment for DD for me, he could end up being so close but so far

Nasty cut due to a clash of heads sadly but this did not phase him, experience and desire got him through that, what a fighter. Took some shots Wallin

Gutted for Nathan but he didn’t look up for it and time to hang those gloves up.
Well done to his opponent and the best of luck for the rest of your career.

Seems to have genuine power as well as the speed. He could be the real deal, excited to see how he manages to go up the levels.
Would love to see the Dalton Smith fight but maybe it does make more sense for it to happen further down the line now.

Superb performance from adam azim on sat

This is before the cards. Fury boxed his head off. I have him 5 up
ABSOLUTELY NO ****ING WAY
Publicly that, all for Ukraine ffs

Fury dominates from round one......which means usyk will win as my predictions are pants usually.

Started well did Bentley.
Pretty certain it was a thumb in the eye that Brad took which unfortunately knocked the impetus out of him that he was building.
Spot on, he’s got the heart of a lion.

Good fight that. Bentley the better boxer, didn’t like those body shots though. Paul has the heart of a lion

Outboxed CBS, great performance from Ramirez, so humble after the fight too
Bivol whooped him. I will put my money on JO for the win too

He is struggling in this , looked knackered from the end of the 5th

So frustrating watching that and like you are saying Jeff, does **** all for the sport 
Main event. CBS has got to make him feel the power

Tyson took the money rather than put that clown in hospital. Shame really.

In reply to Post #3196
Farcical in every way . Totally ruining boxing tyson 's knee was worse than mine from the off he couldnt move . Was chewing on his own glove the whole fight that was to stop him throwing a punch !!
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3195
Unbelievable performance, superb hand speed, deserved the win
As for the Tyson shambles, on the back foot, nah. What a ****ing farce, embarrassing, he could have put that bum out in 20 seconds 
|
|
|
|
|
Taylor serrano what a fight a pair of the toughest women on earth. Get in katie whatever the american ****ers say you won that . Never should a point have been deducted both using the head. Fastest hands ever from a female.
|
|
|
|
|
Big fight for CBS this weekend, looks in great shape
|
|
|

Well done Shabaz.
Where on earth one of the judges got 115-113 in favour of Liam is quite frankly a disgrace.

What a ****ing fight Essuman and Vaghuan
Warriors ✊
Edit - Disagree with that result

In reply to Post #3190
Agree, well none JC. landed some lovely clean left hands and countered well
See who is next
I know he is countering but I think he needs to up the punch rate moving forward against the best

Great fight catterall/ prograis both gave everything

In reply to Post #3188
He was levellled, agree, cocky ****er
Well, what a fight that was
Thought Bivol did enough for me. A lot of BB shots were on the gloves. Credit to BB boxed well, just stays on the end of Bivols reach. Think he got it on aggression myself, deffo not clean shots, BB corner though he was behind!
Say one thing though, BB 39 and the full 12 rounds, superbly conditioned, athelete
For ONCE I agree with Hearn
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3187
I said last year way too cocky whittaker. Big one coming up
|
|
|
|
Well, that was a leveller for high hope Ben Whittaker. Interesting comments from Carl Frampton who hinted that he quit! Has to be a rematch!
Wardley what a finish, smashed Clark, thought he had broke his jaw!
|
|
|

Fight night, what a card again!
Somebody’s 0 has to go. Got to be one of the best match ups for a long time Bivol and BB

In reply to Post #3178
Result for you then pal too
Joshua as I have said before is a great role model for the sport, superbly conditioned and has probably one of the best right hands in the business but it stops there for me, seriously lacking in boxing skills, exceptionally poor movement, still fights in straight lines and even the very basics, drops his guard all the time, chin exposed ffs, incredible after all this time, it’s a natural instinct, his defence is rubbish, hands all over, doesn’t cover up, he is so easy to hit and always has been
DD was tactically spot on, put it on him from the off as others have sat on the end of his jab and copped for the right hand. Slipped inside brilliantly and put it on him, made him look clueless because when it’s on him, he is, one trick pony Joshua, always has been.
I would love to see DD fight Usyk again, my money would be on him to blow Usyk away in 8. Carrying some serious power now and can land it. Come on a long way since the Joyce defeat, faced a man tonight who try’s to sit behind the jab and destroyed him
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3177
I saw the weigh in highlight last night and you could see in his eyes he was not up for it at all.
Stuck a few quid on a DD knock out inside 6 as a result and went to plan. Extremely poor ring awareness from Joshua... landed a big hit on DD and then went for the kill and let his left hand drop twice.. DD even hit him one just before the knockout and he didn't react.
I was half expecting him to chat a load of bullocks at the end again but fair play to him he was actually quite humble
|
|
|
|
Well, great performance from DD, put it on the bum from the bell. That should give the Joshua fans something to talk about, exposed again 
|
|
|
|
|
AJ looks awful and now he's done.Hopefully retires now and is never seen again

Destroyed him in style? After taking about 50 big right hands. Do you honestly think if he fights that way he'll still be standing after a few rounds?

Fight night
Looking forward to the Warrington fight, might be the fight of the night this
Cmon DD after his performance against Hrgović, where he destroyed him in style, shocked me to be fair, I though he was a serious contender, I’m hoping the same fate for Joshua if DD can avoid the big right, needs to keep moving and to Joshua’s left. This should be a cracker because if Joshua loses this it could be game over. Both came in around 250 ripped, incredible

In reply to Post #3160
Yeah im going mate fantastic undercard.
|
|
|
|
Anybody watching then?
I hope DD sparks him
Dare I say it, might be a good fight. Can’t see Joshua doing anything other than sit behind the jab, he’s not got much else. The jab job worked for Joyce.
DD seems to have a lot better movement since and in his last two fights so I fancy him to put Joshua out although this is heavyweight boxing, one shot
|
|
|
|
|
What a fight that was, Ben Fail vs Omir Rodriguez. Brutal
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3157
Same as me Gerry, it was a close one. Personally i think he struggled at that weight, absolute top class fighter but I think he struggled with the power and could not put him away either and I think he realized that. He wants to keep quite about Canelo because I feel he would be far too strong and too powerful for him.
Still, at his weight a sure all time great, the man can box, superb
|

In reply to Post #3154
Well I dont think Crawford deserved to get that decision it was a very close fight a draw maybe but If your going to take a mans belt it should be a clear win
I loved the isaac cruz vs jose valenzuela match and it was action from start to finnish
and valenzuela outboxing the pitball

Should have never taken the Zhang fight, that was a major wrong move

Cant help feeling sorry for Joyce he missed out on the big money fights and the 2 zhang fights finished him really he should retire
and Delboy is not going anywhere until he has made the 50 fights sadly

Chisora v Joyce hope fully Derek will retire after this one what he lacks in ability he makes up for with heart
I know he is a big underdog but I would love him to bow out with a win
and TBH after Joyce missing out on the big money fights and his last 2 losses against Zhang at 38 maybe he should consider retiring too ?

I have always been on here and as he is a mate of yours WE ALL saw /see ALL your posts about him constantly ignoring most of the other fights
and Heaney was fit enough to run off we all saw him AND PAULS EVEN WENT ROUND TO HEANEYS DRESSING ROOM TOO
OK I get he was upset but he let himself down END OF FANBOY thats , my opinion END OF CHAT !

In reply to Post #3136
WTF are you gibbering on about as Nathan’s health came first before he could congratulate him. One thing Nathan isn’t is a sore loser.
You were no where near on here when he became British champion but now you can’t wait to wade in on a former graceful champion who was receiving medical treatment.
You’ve really let yourself down here as much as my mate Nathan ever could have.
You fool.
Edit - As for your information Brad Paul’s went over to Nathan’s corner and how do you know Nathan didn’t congratulate him then?.
As for the first fight I thought Nathan won it by two rounds but appreciate that boxing is subjective.
Edit - I only came on here to post (congratulations to Brad Paul’s on a deserved victory) but unfortunately got to read such an ill thought out post from yourself.

In reply to Post #3135
PISSPOOR show
after Heaney lost never congratulated his opponent ? not even the decency to to stand in the centre with the ref for the decision and just buggered off sulking went right down in my estimation I had Pauls in front before the last round anyway and the last fight he was lucky to get the decision too IMO

Best performance to date that for CBS, SMc. has brought him on no end. RR one dimensional, poor, CBS superb condition, great game plan, worked him from the off

I think the Davis fight could be a cracker, FM is super slick but I think he will fall to the left eventually
The Benavidez fight could be interesting too
I hope CBS wins but I think this is his toughest challenge to date

There’s boxing taking place in Texas shortly afterwards as El Tigre promotions are putting on a show of which can be streamed for free. Dan of boxing tv is doing the commentating and if you YouTube boxing tv he’s interviewing a few of the boxers and also further information can be found.
Just thought I’d let you all know as should be a great night of boxing.

What a fight
That was the right decision
Some proper grit from Taylor

Weigh in is up. Only in Leeds could Josh Taylor walk out to the sound of w@nker, w@nker
Both men look in superb condition, should be a great fight, we will see if Taylor had an off night, I predict a riot, I predict a riot

Yes its a genuine hate match
López really showed the way when he counter punched the counter puncher Taylor looked poor really
I used to really rate him but now I would love Jack Catterall to do a number on him big ask but he was the underdog last time and boxed out of his skin
On Friday
Sky Sports action ring walk about 22.15 Rozanski Vs Okolie should be a good match to watch

Agree John Fury is a tit.
Never been impressed with anything he said and having watched some of his historical fights he was rubbish.
He's getting glory from his son's achievements...without Tyson nobody would know who he was.
Glad Usyk won, I know I should want UK boxers to win but I don't really rate Tyson Fury.
I would much rather back AJ, especially after his performance against Ngannou.

I think having John fury in the corner really didn't help Tyson at all
100%. The man is a tit. Listen to him or Sugar Hill, mmmmm

|

In reply to Post #3100
I had it pretty much the same and I watched it. Fury possibly won the 12th and round 9 was 10-8 for Usyk.
Not many complaints from the boxing world with the outcome. i think most had Usyk as the winner. I really wanted Fury to win, those middle rounds he looked so comfortable and genuinly thought... its game over now.... but he got clipped square on the nose and i think that slowed him, then got hit with that big left hook in the 9th and he was just recovering and trying to stay in it from there.
Totally agree with the comment about John Fury, needs to be one voice in that corner and he was shouting over Sugarhill, which is not helpful at all.
Big fight at the weekend coming up... Catterall v Taylor. Should be a good one
|
|
|
|
Only one way to guarantee winning and that’s knock the other fella out don’t rely on the judges.
Fury needs to stop with the showboating and just get back to boxing.
Yes I know He’s trying to sell tickets.
But,
I’m not a fan of modern boxing
I didn’t watch it but listened to it
It sounded like.
1-3 to usyk
4-8 fury
9-12 usyk.

In reply to Post #3096
Spot on Jeff. I don't know how anyone could say either man "clearly" won. A 1 round swing either way at most. I think having John fury in the corner really didn't help Tyson at all. If the rematch happens then he really should be nowhere near the corner
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3096
Spot on Jeff that would have been the right decision
Usyk is one very tough MF, superbly conditioned
|
|
|
|
|
Thought it was a draw myself but good fight very clean no ref intervention apart from 9th when he helped fury out.
|
|
|
|
An unexpected treat last night. I refused to pay for it.
Can't stand Fury or his family. But a mate sent me a link to a stream.
So me the wife and kid all cheering Usyk on in the early hours.
Great fight.
|
|
|
|
Usyk broken jaw
Wonder if there will be a rematch?
What a fight
|
|
|
|
|
The right result in the end. Although a split decision was abit of a shock, not sure how that judge had Fury up 7 rounds. I had him winning 4 rounds maybe 5 at a push. Great fight tho. Hopefukly the rematch will happen.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I thought it was 100% the right decision and Fury was a bit of a CNUT mentiong the war as a reason he lost !!
he got beat by the better man and was lucky the ref didnt stop it in the 9th too IMO
|

In reply to Post #3089
Was the 9th yes.
Thought Usyk just did more to Nick the rounds but thought 115-113 in the end.

In reply to Post #3084
With SugarHill style of Training I think Tyson may go all out for early KO ?
its really going to be an edge of the seat match thats for sure
I cant wait to see Moses Itauma on the undercard I thing he will turn out to be a World champion in the future amazing power
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah usyk will target the eye and look for a stoppage , hes a great fighter but will run out of steam with fury leaning on him. If fury jabs like he can keeping him at range he will wear him down . Usyk punches harder than he is given credit for cant wait for it.

Fury looking fired up for it. Set to be a great fight hopefully. Keep changing my mind on what the outcome will be. I think Fury at his best beats Usyk at his best, just depends what version of each of them turn up. Both intellegent boxers who can adapt within the fight. Hopefully its not spoilt by that cut opening up on Furys eye, got a sneaky feeling its going to open up early and spoil the fight, but we will see.
Usyk will look to pressure Fury for the whole 12 and literally not give him room to breath, Fury will need to keep him out with that Jab and when on the inside, lean, hold and rough Usyk up.
Its set to be a fight with a little bit of everything, no one trick ponys in this fight.
No1 vs No2 in the HW division..... and we are set to find out which one is which.

He has always been the same .Tried to bully us when tyson sparred with us as a teenager, you should have seen him when tyson was sparked out by David price in the gym . Unfortunately or fortunately for him he knows when and who to do it to. Out of the limelight tyson and peter fury are gentlemen and Tyson is very very generous. John was a useless boxer and never a bare knuckle champion trying to live tysons life for him.

I’m sure some are fine people, I have had dealings with them myself similar to Gerry.
As a bloke once told me, they would nick the gold out of your teeth if they had the chance, completely different lifestyle to ours, woman run the caravans, which are immaculate, men ruled by the fist 👊
I know a regular Boxing Day meet, hundreds of them, turn up end up scrapping in heaps, worth sitting in the car with a 4 pack and watching
What he did at the boxing was out of order, an unprovoked attack on a man half his size

John Fury is a typical traveller mong
Maybe in boxing. I've only one story of him, told to me by a disabled powerlifter, his dad had a shop near the Furys, one day Tyson messed the shop keeper about. John marched him back into the shop some time later to apologise to him, seems pretty decent if you ask me.

In reply to Post #3074
I have had some brilliant experiences with traveller`s over the years most recent one was about a years ago when I was able to use the jetwash I pulled up behind the guy that was using it clearly a traveller in his big flashy pickup with the family he shot a look at me then when he finished he walked round to my car and said I will pull out you pull in stay in your car there is enough time to do yours
I drove forward and he washed my car I offered him money and he laughed and said dont be daft and drove off
another time I bought some slabs at a grden centre and was loading them in my camping trailer and 2 traveller`s came over and said leave it to us
sure there are some do as you likeys (pikeys tinkers ) but they are not proper traveller`s

In reply to Post #3073
John Fury is a typical traveller mong and he proved that with his recent antics. To be fair though, took the focus off the fighters 
Should be a great fight. I think Tyson will put him out within 8 and tbh I would be surprised if he sparked him in 4. Fighting is about ranges and Usyk has to come inside to land and then he is susceptible to one of Tyson Fury’s best shots for me and that’s his uppercut, world class. Leading with his jab, short fast hands from Fury for me, lot of lateral movement when Usyk comes in, some winging body shots and some good uppercuts, job done, hopefully. Usyk has got to have plenty, of movement, more than ever, especially the head to slip and come inside but this time I expect the fight to be at pace throughout. This ain’t no Joshua mugging
Somebody’s 0 has to go. Cmon Tyson Fury
Can’t wait

In reply to Post #3069
Too close to call
but I think Fury will win he is a natural with a boxing brain much better than some folk realise for a big man he can be so fast and the ability to instantly switch seamlessly and fight as well either hand I think there is a big chance he will stop Usyk
but anything can happen
I will be looking forward to seeing how Moses Itauma gets on in his journey a world champion in the making IMO

Garcia done good.
I read today that he was being a dick for months before the fight on social media, acting drunk/high etc -- and the bookies lowered the odds on him winning.
Then he bet $2 million on himself for a win, and took home $12 million, plus the fight money.

Parker not big enough for the big boys.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3053
he boxes in straight lines and barely moves his head
You missed “still” out of that
I am not sure what Ben Davidson has brought other than some over confidence and sit behind the jab.. As Gerry said, might have been to the hypnotist lol. A quality boxer with some good movement will box his head off. The only advantage Joshua has, he has a good reach and carriers serious power
I would put my money on Wilder because AJ cannot box like Fury or move like Parker did last night. Static, perfect for the bomb 💣
Wilder couldn’t set his feet last night, always on the back foot, to be fair when you see him drop the bomb his legs must be 6 foot wide, incoming missile lol, couldn’t get into those positions last bight, JP was magnificent
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3053
Yeah it has traction for sure, both can bang, both can be hurt, the question is does wilder want to continue ? His record has taken a bit of a knock over his last 5 fights and he may not want to risk it further. He's 38 now, doesn't need any more money and realistically isn't going to get anywhere near a title again for at least a couple of years with the potential 2 fury v usyk fights, then mandatory challenger's after that. And he's got to keep winning and first fury and now parked have shown how to beat him. He may choose the cash out option if the Saudis will still bankroll the AJ fight , and AJ agrees to it. But he's already said if it's a choice of a title or wilder he will go for the title . Certainly a lot of potential for 2024 to be the best heavyweight year for some time
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3050
I still think the AJ Wilder fight still has some traction. Parker has a better boxing IQ and better movement than AJ. Parker boxed superbly and didnt give Wilder the opportunity to throw his right hand never mind land it. I think Wilder was waiting for that static target but it never came. Parkers movement was slick and measured, good footwork and head movementand dangerous with that looping right hand. I dont think AJ has that his locker, he boxes in straight lines and barely moves his head. So I genuinly think Wilder would still fancy himself against AJ, be a much easier target to land the RH. ObvsAJ can bang too so i think tgats why its a good match up. . AJ says he will fight anyone and i believe he would. Parker rematch would be interesting.
That being said in here 2024 has skme real potential, especially with Saudi in the mix and the willingness for multiple tv platforms to work together which is usually what puts the brakes on big fights.

In reply to Post #3051
Yeah I saw him say he'd still be up for it, I can't see wilder wanting it without at least a tune up beforehand now. I'm sure Parker would like the aj rematch, not so sure AJ will go that way. I can see him fighting hrgovic , who yeah got the decision against Zhang but it was a bit of a gift imo. There are a few others getting up there too now, Anderson, bakole,Zhang . Lots of potential for a great 2024 if the fights can be made.
|
|
|

In reply to Post #3050
He is after Wilder he was saying, probably trying to beat the man who beat the men to try and restore his reputation now he thinks Wilder is on decline
He will fancy a fight with Parker I reckon, I hope Parker smokes him tbh.
There has the potential to be a lot of good heavyweight fights next year
As for Hrgović, you can see he is quality and he bet Zhang who most people wouldn’t take a second look at, monster of a man, Joshua better keep clear of Hrgović or he will get his heads boxed off!

In reply to Post #3049
Can't see where he goes from there really, he's looking gun shy and as that's all he really had anyway I can see his team telling him to call it quits. Bivol was decent yeah, although he did look beatable. Not sure anything can be said about hrgovic really given his opponent may as well not even bothered putting his gloves on he was that uninterested in fighting. Aj looked to have a little bit of that spite back, be very interesting to see where he goes next .

In reply to Post #3048
Possibly. Very humble in defeat which was nice to see, and he basically said he was at peace with himself which I though was nice to hear, to be fair, he has nothing to prove, can’t say I was a fan from a purists point of view but there’s no doubt he can bang, and he will go down in boxing legacy with a record like that.
Bivol masterclass, but he did get hurt with that body shot. Wants Callum Smith or BB next, two good fights there, when they meet and he faces the winner
Hrgović Is looking good

|

In reply to Post #3038
Yep I think everyone knew that. He always had that robotic amatuer style. Textbook movements which are easy to read at the highest level. At that level you need an edge to be succesful. His edge was his fearless aggressive and poweful attacks but he lost that confidence and his edge when Ruiz concussed him. Now he appears affraid to commit for fear of being clipped again.
Wallin isnt a big hitter but he is awkward and a half decent boxer, if AJ tries to box it will go to points. If we see the old AJ he will throw everything at him for a stoppage. Need to see the latter from AJ really because we all know he cant box.
Like u say, to beat Wilder you need to put pressure on him, he does not like being bombarded, get in close so his long arms are not effective. Fury made it look easy going in and out. Itll be hard for Parker to emulate that tho being the smaller guy. Should be a decent fight but i think Wilder will smoke him with a heavy shot mid rounds.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3037
I knew from when I first saw him he couldn’t box, zero lateral movement, planted feet, body builder who can punch with some backward and forward movement, sounds hard but that how it was, he has progressed a little, although he got the win in the second fight he looked like a ****ing robot
Usyk can box and that’s why he got battered and totally exposed. Totally wrong in both fights, head gone, he should have used his strength, bulldozered him into the corners and battered him that was his only chance, making it a dirty fight.
He is focused until he gets hit, OW is a very dangerous fight to take for me but if you are up there, there ain’t many easy ones unless you are truly world class
One of my biggest disappointments of this era is Parker, he can box but seems like he doesn’t want to get hurt and holds back, would love to see an aggressive version with kill on his mind and some bad intentions. I wish he would beat the bronze bummer but as we know, he has dynamite in the right hand, still he is friends with Fury so he will have had some good advise. He needs to be out of range slipping the bomb, in and up close, if he can keep Wilder on the back foot , make him fight at a high tempo, he stands a chance for me

In reply to Post #3033
In my opinion. It all went down hill for AJ after he fought Parker. Parker was the 1st fighter who didnt stand and trade shots with AJ. AJ had to chase him around the ring and actually box rather than slug. He realised soon after than he isnt that good at boxing. For years he relied on his fearless agression and power with very limited actual boxing skill. He then started going on about "learning the sweet science" changing his approach to try and learn how to actually box. He had a wobble in the dressing room before the Ruiz fight, some say he had a panick atrack, he said he was mentally drained which makes sense. His body language on the ring walk was all off aswell. He then gets clipped hard by Ruiz and no one had hit him like that before eventually losing the bout. I think AJ has alot of voices in his head, he seems to of lost his charactor we saw in his early career, the loss against Ruiz has rattled him. He lost his head in the ring after the Usyk fight. For a guy who used to preach about "staying humble" he certainly didnt follow his own advice. Now looking at AJ in the build up to this Wallin fight. He doesnt k ow what charactor he wants to be, the bad guy, the good guy, the quiet guy, the loud guy? He hasnt got a clue what his identity is anymore. He was very blunt in the interviews and just kept saying... im focused... im focused. Sounds to me like he is just acting.
As for this fight.... i think its the last chance saloon for him, it aint going to be easy against Wallin who is an akward southpaw. AJ will have to go sh*t or bust and go all out aggressive.

Probably pinning his hopes on Wilder has gone, what is he 43 now, power is the last thing to go. He has more of that than Joshua and faster hands!
To be fair I hope it does happen, it would be a very interesting watch
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3034
oh no matter what the outcome
Im convinced Joshua WILL fight wilder as the ppv sales in the USA will probably break records And restore wilders fearsome reputation when he knocks out AJ
back before AJ got knocked out by Andy he probably had a real good chance but that boats sailed now he is gun shy and scared
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #3033
Agree
Imagine if he had the aggression or iron Mike but more importantly could box and move! Dangerous fight that against OW, can’t afford any slip ups there
I wish Parker would win but he is certainly up against it there with the bronze bummer
If the results happen as expected I wonder if Joshua will eventually have the balls to step through the ropes against Wilder, that will be a contest of two hammers and if he wins that, unlikely, he may restore some real credibility setting him up for a Fury fight?

In reply to Post #3032
I think Joshua should go to a hypnotist and get drummed into him you wont be scared of being hit
you wont be scared to commit to actually throw punches like your not scared to death etc
and just hope his corner tells him the truth
I can see Parker getting sparked

Disappointed tbh, I thought in a couple of years time he could have been one of the best boxers to come out of this country for a long time. Seen a few of his fights, leaves himself square open at times and lacks timing if I am being ultra critical, let’s hope he keeps boxing and he certainly should!!! Maybe another trainer takes him to another level
And… Rodriquez can’t make that weight for much longer, when he steps up he will lose

I like that lad, wears his heart on his sleeve so to speak, likes a fight
TBH i saw him as a British champion level, so can’t knock the lad at all. Not the best defense or movement, powerful and likes a war which could be his downfall against a quality boxer. I thought the same, was blowing early and just didn’t seem at the races for me, took far too many unnecessary punches in that fight trying to walk him down, lucky he got the stoppage because he was down on points for me by quite a way
Don’t think there is an easy fight when you are knocking around that level though, unless you are very special
Easy to pass comments when you are not on the end of it

Don't know much about CBS but he looks a big fecker for sure,also looked out of breath far too early,couldn't see him lasting long in with the best.

In reply to Post #3022
Poor performance from CBS that, tried to walk him down and got his head boxed off. Thought the last couple of body shots looked to hurt the Pole, took the wind straight out of his sales, then doesn’t come back out for the next round, can only think his ribs have gone

Given that every ring walk could be their last, and they are risking their life for others entertainment I'd say let them do what they want

Boxed well Haney
I think RP just wanted to knock his head off, left himself in range all the time too
|
|
|
|
Ebanie Bridges got a proper battering by a late substitute
Haney also completely dominated also dropped him and went on for a 1 sided win
|
|
|
|
DH vs. RP tonight, some tension there, expect it to be a great fight, test for Haney this
Chris B Smith on Sunday, should be a cracker

In reply to Post #3015
Thought the Garcia fight was poor, danced around the ring avoiding contact for most of the fight Garcia. Duarte was poor, out of range then stood in front of him, couldn’t plant his feet to throw either. Bit of a lucky punch for Garcia for me after dancing around for so long, but he landed. Duarte wants to watch GGG and how he cuts the ring off, that was missing. Can’t say I’m a big fan of Garcia, can give it but can’t take it, reminds me a lot of Khan, gangly with fast hands. Fight people like that and they have to put it on them with multiple punches and Duarte didn’t, or you have to be super slick on the counter like Tank. I think Duarte will have learned a lot from that though.
I’m sure Garcia will be pleased too, since DH and BH we’re tipping him to lose!
Some performance from Gill that!

What a brilliant night of boxing last night

Some performance that from KT
Managed to keep CC at range better this time around, super sharp hand speed and good movement, didn’t get sucked in to CC fight like last time. What a fight though that, woman’s boxing is certainly on the map now
And one judge gives it a draw and the other KT by 98 - 92 WTF

Congratulations to Katie Taylor
For weeks Katie Taylor said that her rematch with Chantelle Cameron would be a completely different fight and the Irish icon was true to her word, scoring a hard-fought 10-round majority decision over Chantelle Cameron to claim the undisputed super lightweight championship. Official scores were 98-92, 96-94, and 95-95.
|
|
|
|
|
Well Katie Taylors last throw of the dice tonight, has her work cut out for me, she had better be on top form plus some because CC gave her a once over last time, too strong for me. Can’t see how KT is going to do it if I’m honest other than box, move and be super slick, she has the faster hands, but that is energy zapping, last time she got drawn into CC game, can not afford to be in a tear up. If it’s anything like the first fight it should be great watch because they can both box

Nice one mate.
He won by quite a margin and it may well be as that margin could stand him in good stead to go one better than what Denzel managed.
We never had any doubt that he could pull it off and the plan worked to a treat.
I love the lad and before the title fight said he would be paying me a visit with the belt should he pull it off.
I haven’t seen the bare knuckle mate but was down at Fenton manor last week watching the show put on by bad to the bone.

Go oarnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Nathan.
Above all else hope that all boxers come home safely.
Edit - The hard graft done is in the bank. Stay disciplined, stick to the plan and go get the best return possible.
Boy, is this lad going let all his emotions out should he become British champion. Not only for himself but for his father Joe who sadly took his own life shortly before Nathan becoming midlands area champion.
Everything well and truly crossed.
Good luck Nathan.

In reply to Post #2989
Sounds about right to me. Fury hit FN with some good shots, just didn’t phase him, that’s when you know you are in for a hard night
Look at what he did with Otto Wallin, well off the game that night and that cut could have finished him!
To be fair, he openly admits he is mentally I’ll which is sad really but I guess that’s why he is up and down, I’m guessing there may have been a loss of focus for FN thinking he would walk it. He could have and should have jabbed his head off!
|
|
|
|
Well after watching the fight a few times now
Im going to be unpopular
as I think it was very very close but Fury just nicked it with the help of his point scoring Jabs thru out the fight after the Knockdown
EDIT
It turns out that despite Ngannou's best efforts, Fury managed to land more punches over the ten rounds.
According to CompuBox, the Salford-born star managed to land 71 of the 223 jabs he threw at his opponent.
On the other hand, Ngannou threw 231 punches but only made contact with 59 of his attempts.
Fury also reigned supreme in six of the ten rounds, while Ngannou had his time to shine in the third, fourth and eight rounds

In reply to Post #2987
Agree. I think the USYK fight will happen around May
To be fair it is what he needed, he won’t play about next time, typical gypsy showboating and gloating, out on the piss the night before too
Don’t judge the Usyk fight on that it will be totally different to fighting FN!!!
FN deserves another shot too after a performance like that, although I would expect a different outcome
|
|
|
|
Who is the fat sausage now?!
The whole thing was a farce. Two hours from the Wardley fight to the Fury fight. What a bore that was after an entertaining undercard. The fight itself was much better than expected and Fury lost it, but the WBC couldn’t have that (despite the belt not being up for grabs) and the judges obliged.
Fair play to Ngannou, he was solid and took the injustice on the chin, he obviously knew it was coming.
I very much doubt we will ever see Fury in the ring fighting Usyk. He would rather keep the unbeaten ‘Gypsy King’ myth alive as, for my money, Usyk outsmarts and outboxes him every time.
My guess is he retires again, then comes back (again) for another big money fight against a non boxer or two.
Without the Usyk fight can we really say that Fury was the generational great that we were lead to believe? Who does he really have on his record apart from Wilder and a 39 year old Klitschko? And while the Wilder fights were entertaining can we really say that beating him over 3 fights was such a feat?
Yes, obviously Wilder has freakish power in his fists, but how many tests has he really had other than Fury? He sat on the WBC belt fighting very beatable challengers twice a year for 5 years. Smart, but not exactly the stuff of greatness.

FN is a striker, unbelievable power, 17 stone of pure muscle, and knows how to train for a fight, think he opened a lot of peoples eyes.
Very, very powerful man. As much as I like Fury he is a boxer who carries a lot of weight but he does not have the dynamite for the power to weight ratio and the devastating one shot power, aka Wilder lol

I've just watched it this morning and Francis did well for a "nobody" didn't he?! I reckon he might have a decent future in the ring. This was less of a mockery to boxing than some of the recent fights, and as long as people keep buying the ppv then they will keep happening. I'd like to see ngannou in with old windmill one day, it would be fun while it lasted

In reply to Post #2983
Basically he got the game plan all wrong, expected FN to come out swinging to he could counter him. FN brilliantly disciplined, wait for Fury to throw then tried to counter, who has the biggest hammer
Heavyweight’s, takes one shot, fury was put down in the 3rd, landed but off balance and FN caught him on the side of the head. Scrappy really and for the first time ever Fury looked clueless until he strung a few jabs together
Can’t knock FN, machine, rock solid, full of muscle and would happily stand toe to toe with anybody
They reckon Fury was out the night before
Fight like this do make a mockery out of boxing but that fight probably shocked us all, takes one single punch. As for the Fury’s I am inclined to think as mentioned below, you can take the gypsy from the camp but you can’t take the camp from the gypsys, mongs, John Fury what a cock, he fancies a slice of the cake with the real Tyson
Shouldn’t be allowed to fight for the bets either unless they have progressed down the boxing route

Day light robbery there is no way he won not a cat in hells chance I hope fn gets a massive brown envelope for that because he won hands down it makes a mockery out of the sport Tyson and Tommy robbing a living both lost yet both get the win
|
|
|

Well, that saved boxing lol
To be fair FN got the knockdown but Fury had the punch count
FN, too strong, punches just bounce off him, he got caught with some very good ones!
Credit to FN, wasn’t expecting that

Great composure from Wardley and a great left hand, super sharp hands too!

tonight is FIGHT NIGHT !! .....UK: TNT Sports Box Office
The main card starts at 6 p.m. UK
with Fury and Ngannou making their ringwalks at approximately 10:40 p.m. UK This could change depending on the lengths of the undercard matches.
and like a lot of people hoping GREEDY PIG Fury gets sparked

In reply to Post #2975
I would like to see AJ fight Wilder and I agree, both have the power, Wilder has the success rate though.I don’t think anybody likes Wilder except for a few yanks!
Agree, Ortiz could have won both of those, far superior boxer, just succumbed to the bomb
Fury exposed Wilder as a one trick pony, aggressive fighter with a wide stance looking to land the bomb, put him on the back foot, clueless. Master class from Fury in all 3 fights, first one boxed him on the back foot, second one battered him on the front foot, third one bit of everything. For a big guy his movement, and skills are incredible!
Usyk is a great boxer no doubt but you could argue his record is not the greatest, Bellew etc who I can’t say I am a big boxing fan off. Still, you can only fight who is around at the time
End of the day we are being super critical because any of the above could wipe us out with the wind off their gloves

In reply to Post #2974
Ive not called usyk a great Chris. Not sure where you keep plucking that from? But he has 3 belts. That makes him a heavyweight champion! The dubois fight was one where some saw it as a low blow, others saw it as a fair shot and dubois was robbed. At the end of the day what happened, happened and you can only go with the refs decision. Personally it looked like a clean shot to me. But would usyk have got up within the 10 count? Who knows. He didn't need to because the ref gave him time for a low blow.
Agreed wilder is a nasty ******* , can't stand the man and hope he gets beat every time he sets foot in the ring . He had a few challengers for it too?10 of them And he's been on his way to losing a few fights along the way and got out of jail with a big right hand. Even that Artur spika was beating him until he got sloppy , and the over the hill chisora absolutely destroyed spika with ease . Ortiz was winning both fights until the right landed too even though he's god knows what age. His record has great numbers I'll agree, but names on that record? Not so much. I agree aj doesn't stand much of a chance, especially these days as it's pretty clear he's mentally weakened . But wilder can be hurt too so if aj could land first anything is possible. Not that I think he would because of being gun shy these days. Can't see either of them having much left in them tbh, 2 or 3 fights each maybe .
|
|

In reply to Post #2973
And yet he holds 3 of the 4 belts
And Dubious was SO close, are you going to say that he would be a great if he won too lol. Usyk ain’t put them together.The same collection Joshua put together before he was exposed again and again and again. Like it or not the belt was the WBC who nobody would challenge for whilst Joshua was doing the sweepings up. Wilder would absolutely well and truly obliterate him, the man ain’t no defence!
And then a man who is mentally I’ll, 10 stone overweight with a drugs and alcohol problem as a result, does major draining weight loss and comes along and beats the WBC dosser 3 times, now that is something that NO former heavyweight champ has ever done and probably will not again, that alone is pretty, unbelievable, ****ing amazing!!!
I think Wilder is the most dangerous fight for Usyk, and he won’t take it
Wilder is a nasty MF, but as somebody once said, you don’t go in there to tickle each other lol

In reply to Post #2972
But you said he wasn't a true heavyweight champion ? And yet he holds 3 of the 4 belts? And yet old windmill isn't a champion anymore either? Granted he can't be called a heavyweight great and at his age it's doubtful he has got enough time left to ever be called one. Even if he beats fury and wilder . Don't think he's got much chance against fury Tbh, but wilder I'm not so sure. That one could go either way for me.
In reality, who has wilder fought? He's got a massively padded résumé himself , other than fury he's got nobody. And the man is an utter tool. Saying he won't retire happy if he doesn't have a body on his record. He can't box for toffee either, all he has is that power, hence he came up short against someone with actual skills ,even though he made every excuse under the sun he simply wasn't the better fighter . Not even close
|

|

In reply to Post #2971
Great boxer USYK no doubt, athlete. not a true heavyweight and who has he fought at heavy so far, a well over the hill Chisora, Joshua who can’t box for toffee, body builder, and he lost or should have against Dubios so that makes him a great does it, wins over those 3 lol, come back when he has clocked up over 20 then we can talk about greatness
And all of those 3 are not even close to Fury or even Wilder.
I don’t dislike Joshua, great role model, but I knew from the start he was not the one that everybody was making him out to be, his fights were cherry picked over the years, he is a very powerful lad but lacks boxing skills, and movement, massively
And as for Holyfield he was a proper boxer, athlete, and warrior and you can’t compare USYK with him, he has been in wars, look at the fights he had!
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2970
How is usyk not a heavyweight champion in your eyes Chris? Because he took the belts from aj who you have a clear dislike of? Or because he's an ex cruiserweight? (Just like haye/holyfield before him)
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2967
Take him out of the equation and it only leaves Wilder as a true heavyweight champion for me. Far too much politics in boxing, the belts should dictate who fights who next.
and that dikhead father of his is a disgrace an embarrassment
Made me laugh, he was offering Mike Tyson out, let’s have a straightener lol. I am quite confident in saying that MT (who truly is one of the greatest of all time) could put him out in 3 if he wanted to and that’s if he didn’t catch him right with the first two
|

In reply to Post #2967
He's signed to fight usyk next so not sure why everyone has the arse about that now?
|
|

Right from day one when everyone was slagging Tyson Fury off
I could see he was trying to sell himself and could see he had a boxing brain and became a BIG fan
he can box either hand and switch seamlessly very gifted boxer
but recently I have gone right off him its not about the sport its simply greed and money he could easily have made the usk fight but was just to greedy
and that dikhead father of his is a disgrace an embarrassment
no I hope he gets knocked the fook out unlikely but it could happen
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2966
Can’t knock him for what has gone before but to then take the proverbial out of such a great sport I find galling in all honesty. Should be about becoming undisputed and been one of the best in your era. To then fight someone that’s never boxed before solely for the money (he’s made as it is) really does take the 9155 out of the sport and out of himself really. Not for me.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2965
I don't think you can put Tyson in the same category as his brother. Tyson is the heavyweight champion of the world, twice now. He earned those belts. He's gone to the reigning champions back yard and taken them from them both times, he's gone into the ring with the biggest knock out artist the division has ever seen and beaten him multiple times. . His brother is all show and no go, he's not good enough to win belts at even European level so is taking the money option. This is just a warm up for usyk, nothing more than that. But one he is being paid an awfully large sum of money for, and it's his job after all. If anyone was offered a huge sum of money to do their usual job, but made a lot easier ,they'd take it.

Well, the main concern for me is where JC goes next, who are the fights. I wish he would be another British world champion but he has some learning to do for me as he steps up. last night he will have learned a lot though. Thought Linares was very good with the footwork, also managed to get his left outside JC right foot for most of the night which in turn, JC struggled to land any really powerful shots, swinging across his body, very wide stance too which didn’t help either. Good news he got the decision but I wouldn’t say it was as convincing as I would have like to have seen, he needs to get some fights in, but hey ho, up JC
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2958
Don't think it's much of a test Tbh, Linares is so far past his best it's a bit of a joke imo. Lost his last 3 and is just a name for a jacks record. Should be a very comfortable win, probably on points but possibly late stoppage
|

Was a good scrap and a clash of styles, knew they would both go for wit though

yes CANELO bossed the fight completely won every round apart from maybe one Charlo`s record suggested he was going to be a real threat but he was nothing like I expected

Bentley v Heaney 18th Nov Manchester Arena for the British title.
Work hard and take that title.
Good luck Nathan and most of all hope all fighters come home safe.
Edit. Cracking undercard involving Liam Davies amongst others.

|
|

Its on
Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk have signed contracts for undisputed world heavyweight title fight
|

Nathan be publicly announcing a big fight soon and I pray that he comes through this latest challenge.

In reply to Post #2919
I bet Usyk is ****ting himself now lol, would I love to see him fight Zhang, proper heavyweight machine
Is AJ and Wilder really going to happen, that’s another knockout, bomb squad
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2918
I don't think AJ is much of a drawer for anyone now really, just not got anything to concern the best.
|
|
|
|
|
He should have never taken that fight in the first place, they should have been lining up for Usyk, madness!
|
|
|
|
|
I can see the top boys trying to dodge Zhang until he's too old to be a worry. Would love love love to see Joshua get sparked out but he wont, AJ a scared fighter now. Hearn wont risk AJ

Thats the end of joe joyce love to see joshua get sparked by him

Can’t see him getting anything G myself, Joyce the jab is a bit one dimensional for me, needs to throw some big overhand shots.
To be fair it could turn out to be a cracker because Zhang is a machine

tomorrow 23rd FIGHT NIGHT THE REMATCH !
JOE JOYCE V ZHILEI ZHANG
its a tough ask for Joe as southpaws seem to be a problem for him its a must win fight for him if he is to get a chance of a big money fight hope he manages it unlikely I know but he deserves a big money fight

In reply to Post #2906
Smith must of had a big problem he did not turn up
Apparently he had to cut 42lbs (three stone) to make weight for his rematch and had a lower back injury
and glad Azim got some rounds in he will have learnt from that
|
|
|
|
Well that was probably the weirdest night of boxing ive ever been to.
Moran absolutely blitzed . Azim put under alot of pressure , Dave allen never threw any punches while frazer clarke tried to wipe out his meat and two veg ! And then Liam smith who looked like he had had his voice box and windpipe removed. He never got started hardly threw anything and was struggling to breath properly from round 2 . He never spoke in his corner and never responded to what was being said to him .His ankles are always like that he over extends and has such a wide stance . Never seen him throw so few punches and absolutely no power in them .He was rubbing his eyes constantly like his vision was impaired maybe from the punch that floored him . Eubank was so much better than the first fight as smith was so much worse !
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2903
Similar to me, wild punches though, how many missed!
Liam Smith just didn’t look at the races, flat? Eubank just tried to power him out, he had no choice.
Azim copped for some there, coming up the levels now, he got hit with some good shots too
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2902
A demolition. Fair play to Eubank, that’s the way to pipe down the haters.
Smith ain’t on the football pitch tomorrow with those ankles..
|
|
|
|
|
Well i detest Eubank, ****ing hate him. But Smith was never in that. He got smashed apart from round 2 until the ref finally put him out of his misery. No idea what the difference this time but Eubank was determined and Smith was never ever in it.
|
|
|
|
|
eu**** is dominating this beefy is being out boxed
|
|
|
|
|
Unless Smith can pull off a minor Miracle, he's going to lose sadly. Eubank Jr has systematically destroyed him. Doesn't look like he has a lot left
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2898
Yea, it was easy enough in the end and the Ukrainian was tough enough.Azim had a very good 8th round. Clarke’s crowd could learn a thing or two from the Mcguigan’s about building a career for a fighter.
|
|
|
|

What a fight that was last night on channel 5,Samuel Antwi vs Mason Cartwright
|

|
|

good match he will have learnt a lot from that
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2896
I wouldn’t underestimate any Ukrainian at the minute..
Azim got caught and is swinging about a bit but still in control. Good to see him in a bit of a fight

this next one wont last long IMO Adam Azim has dynamite and super speed

In reply to Post #2876
To me he felt it, didn’t fancy a follow up and conned the ref.
As for Dubois I thought he was getting better from round 6 and then for someone so young to then look like he’d all of a sudden hit a brick wall doesn’t bode well for me.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2875
Played the ref there Usyk, that was game over.
Dubious can’t take a punch either, gets rocked far to easily, don’t get me wrong it was a stiff jab and he was stepping in with it but that should not have put him down, think he was exhausted
Based on that Tyson Fury whoops Usyk arse, KO
|
|
|
|
|
He made out and acted like it was a low blow because he felt it and the ref fell for it.
|
|
|
|
he was robbed no question IMO as the
Definition A low blow in boxing is a punch that lands below the belt line of your opponent

Seen it again, that was not low, on the belt
|

In reply to Post #2869
That was coming up and to me hit him right on the money.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2868
Was praying Dubois got through that 9th then it could have set me up nicely for the 10th.
Had that not have been given as a low blow I just don’t see Usyk staying down and giving his belts up.
No way was that shot low.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2868
DD was tired, made to fight at pace, think we all new who we fancied for the later rounds. Need to see the shot again because it looked on the belt to me and if that were the case DD was robbed
Blueprints out there now…
|
|
|
|
|
Usyk still got the job done
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2866
Me neither, seemed right on the money to me.
|
|

Don’t think that was low myself, on the belt!
Usyk cannot take a body shot!
Edit, beatable Usyk, flat footed after the body assault and didn’t want anymore of that!

In reply to Post #2863
Dubois has a good chin problem with him is he cuts easily. I will say this if dubois catches him usyk will know about it . Im hoping he does usyk is not a heavyweight and to me should,nt hold those belts.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2861
Similar to me.
Could turn out to be interesting, for me Dubious has to have him out of there within 6 or severely ruffed up for an 8th round KO or it’s Usyk for me
Dubious chin is questionable though, great big lump, the only real chance he has is to smash him all around the ropes early on, cannot see him doing a jab job on Usyk, too slick. Dubious has the power though and one on the button could do it. Great opportunity for the Brit
Looking at the weigh in, DD looks in good shape, lightest he been too, around 5kg in it, I’ve see Usyk look leaner. Maybe he is expecting a wrestling match lol
I bet Fury is watching with interest

100%, the man is a tit but don’t say I told him that

I just don’t see Dubois getting close enough to land that belt.
10th round stoppage Usyk.

In reply to Post #2859
I think Joyce is a better boxer than he is given credit for sadly not against a southpaw though
@jeffire
yes Jeff 100% agree fook knows why they employ David Haye he is as you say hopeless and Tony Bellew if he is a mate is so bias in his commentary its embarrassing
as an actual commentator in a live boxing match I like Froch
|
|
|
|
|
After what a static Joyce did to Dubois then unless that big punch of his doesn’t land then I can see the same outcome.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2857
I would have give him a chance Gerry until i heard David haye backing him to win , he has never got a result right yet !!
|
|

FIGHT NIGHT ! tonight
Oleksandr Usyk vs. Daniel Dubois ring walk around 22.00 UK time could be explosive we all know Dubois has tremendous punching power and he has got boxing skills still learning though IMO but Usyk is a very good boxer and has to hope he can prevent him from landing the big bombs
I am hoping Dubois shocks everyone shows skills and sparks him
|
|
|
|
|
Canelo vs. Charlo soon
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2853
No where for him, USYK again, nope, Fury, gets his ears boxed off, Wilder, gets sparked, I would like to see that happen because whoever landed clean first would win!

In reply to Post #2852
I watched a bit of the “highlights” that popped up whilst scrolling though you tube
|
|
|
|
Well I wonder if AJs KO win will restore his confidence ?
He was landing a good solid left jab regularly but ???
he never followed it with getting closer and throwing the right ?? he seemed scared of getting a counter I heard him talking to his corner about the right in the round before he landed it I have never noticed a fighter take so much notice of the corner its like he needs to be told what to do ?

And there you go again with the name calling.... It's funny how nobody else seems to need to "emphasize" a point anywhere near as often as you do. I merely made a point of you calling somebody a "nobody " was a bit off, and as usual you throw your toys out of your pram. Let's be honest,plenty of people have called you out for your capital letter outbursts haven't they?
I really don't need a pm from you thanks, I know exactly what you are talking about and quite frankly, being very ott about it. Differences of opinion happen, get over it.

That's a very ironic post Gerry
And I haven't called anyone a liar either, people can disagree with each other without it turning into an argument with lots of capital letters and name calling like you are so fond of doing . It's called discussion and its what forums are about.

Then you should have said he's a nobody in the sport of boxing, and not just a nobody. I'm a boxing fan, have been since I was a boy ,and I know his name. I've watched him fight a few times. And there are many a boxing fan who is the same. I agree with you about the purse splits etc, but it will never happen. The problem with boxing is there are too many governing bodies and too many belts, and that's what will stop the purse split rules happening

He IS a nobody in the sport of boxing
if he wasnt about to fight fury no boxing fan would ever hear his name ! and yes Fury hasnt got a mandatory at the moment but he is sticking 2 fingers up to all the fight fans that want to see him make the fights that they want to see
Mauricio Sulaiman has stated the WBC may give him one soon but Im not holding my breath
just my personal opinion but I would love there to be rules about purse splits so stop all the greed
of course it would never happen BUT
60/40 to the winner ( they are both putting their lives on the line regardless ) would in my eyes be the best/fairest and if it was set in stone just think how much easier matches could be made

In reply to Post #2832
It's a bit unfair to call Francis nganou a nobody Gerry, he's right at the top of the MMA game. Yeah he's not a boxer, but he's not a nobody either. He has as much chance as any of the big lads ,he can bang with the best of them and it only takes one.. no, I don't think he will land it, but I didn't think wilder would land on fury either and he did a few times. Talk of fury being stripped is a bit daft when he doesn't actually have a mandatory at the moment.
|
|
|

In reply to Post #2832
The gypsy king is out for the $. Can’t blame him really. FN is going to get his ears boxed off
I agree though, the best should fight the best and the belts should make that happen. The sad side, boxing politics rules
He will fight Usyk
As for Usyk vs. Dubious, talking about farces. Still if DD lands he could easily spark Usyk, he needs to go in there, walk him straight down, put it on him, put that son of a bitch out, lol, out of there in 4 otherwise it’s a one way contest, not that I care much anyway
For DD iits probably a chance he would never have otherwise
|
|
|
|
I have always been a fan of tyson fury right
from his early days when he was trying to do the Cassius Clay bit and get noticed and famous I thought he was a boxer with a boxing brain could fight with either hand and switch so easily but now !
I think he should be stripped as he is the one that through sheer greed has avoided the fights he should of made
and my biggest hope would be if this Francis Ngannou nobody lands a big bomb and sparks him

In reply to Post #2828
Great performance from TC, superb
Spence was exposed by the champ but respect, he gave it his all until the stoppage. Thought the double jab was working well for him, unsettling Crawfords footwork but he stopped throwing it. Should have thrown the liver shot more often but Crawford was superb with the elbow blocks and counter too.
This game is about levels and Crawford showed he is one up against the rest, what a fighter ✊
|
|
|
|
|
Well the Spence vs Crawford was a cracking fight,he was just too clever for Spence and his jab did the job.The angles that Crawford throws from and the power he can generate is quite scary,it doesn't even look like he has to throw big haymakers to ko you

This truly is a super fight and everything that is right about this sport. Two unbeaten champions, both at their peak and both unbeaten, they know how to win and that’s what makes them very special and this fight special, they don’t come around too often fights like these
Makes a mockery out of those heavyweight bums and the politics and rightly so

Terence Crawford vs Errol Spence one of the biggest fights in the last 20 years
This undisputed welterweight title clash will take place on Saturday, July 29. It is being held at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The undercard will get underway from 1am BST, with the main event ring walks expected around 4am on Sunday morning UK time.

Agree
He looks supremely confident, I think it’s just showboating, I’m sure there are some bad intentions behind those smiles lol. I bet most peoples money is on Crawford, he is superb that’s for sure!
Never been a big Spence fan but I have to say he is a solid boxer with one of the best left hands in the business, times it beautifully too, one of those could put Terrance away so it could lead to a very interesting fight for me

It was. Mcgregor just wasn,t allowed to fight the way he normally does solid jab at range then moving in for body shots robles set out from first bell with fast hands smothering him an excellent fight not a second without a punch thrown . Those mexicans are tough nuts the pair of them were fantastic.

Not seen it as yet.
Regarding Josh Kelly, he was the next big thing when he came on the scene and I like the lad but I always question that low hand show boating style, you have to be super slick and super quick to make that work consistently, people have had his number quite a few times now, he needs to change his defence and style but I can’t see that happening. As already mentioned, due to the style lacks the power too. Only one real show boater who carried power for me and that was Naz, he could punch!

Ugly fight that with the ugly Yank who made it ugly
Thought SM got the win but she struggled there, could have dominated that fight with the jab, and a bit of slick movement, wild winging shots from both. Yank blowing out of her arse in the first lol!

Please tune in if one is able to boxing tv (Dan Hewitt) as tonight at 8.30pm (YouTube and Facebook) speaks with top referee Tony Weeks. Other guests include Robbie Brown, Will Storey, Stefan Hanks and the one I find fascinating and inspirational is Scottish boxer Christianne Fahey who if able to watch will see for themselves as hopefully she provides us with an insight into her life outside of boxing which in all honesty having met her up in Scotland a few weeks ago is truly an amazing young woman and an inspiration to many many others.

As a fan it is very disappointing but when you have the likes of Hearn lining his pocket it all becomes political, not to mention the Don King era!
The belts should make them take mandatory fights, if not strip them and arrange a match with the two other best contenders. Its the boxers and the promotion team who is lining up who will fight who! If it has to happen then they sort it out or lose the belts
Lot of corruption in the sport
Regarding Tyson Fury, heart of a lion and brain of a mouse. I’m pretty sure it’s all a psychological ploy with him. I think the fight with Uysk will happen when he has wound him up enough

Even lose in the heavyweight (I say heavyweight as everyone wants to see whose the best of them all) division and you’re absolutely minted.
|

In reply to Post #2780
That is the problem but to be honest I have no interest in the heavyweight division at the moment.Fighters coming out on social media spouting absolute drivvle and making demands Its not like they're not making life changing amounts of money,surely wanting to be the best by beating the best is the motivation for a true champion
|
|
|
|
|
For as long as the interest/money is there then the fighters and promoters will lap it up and continue to pull in the big bucks. So much for wanting to be the undisputed best in your weight division which in all honesty is a farce for not wanting to be considered the best.

Well said Braders, these really are the fights that we want to see
Everyone’s money is on Crawford, mine too but I will say this, Spence has one of the best left hands in the business for me and his timing is out of this world, he has the reach too so for me it could be a proper cracker

Taylor was very poor, don’t know if it was ring rust or just on the downhill slope sadly, looked lethargic, fight had a low tempo and he was just trying to bomb Lopez all the time, should have put him on the jab, that’s his weapon
Credit to Lopez, he was up for it, can’t see where he goes after this if I’m honest

The good news is CBS got the result otherwise it would have been an utter shambles, Okolie was absolutely clueless, embarrassing that if I’m honest
And he was rocked!

Well said, Okolie is a disgrace, disgusting disgusting tactics.
HOW THE **** did one judge get a draw? 112-112?
Well done CBS, a TRUE boxer and champion.

What a disgrace to British boxing Okolie is
Ref should have just disqualified him, embarrassing ffs! He has nothing other than trying for that big overhand right !
Sugar hill cheating **** too!

I was watching the other fight JACK CATTERALL VS DARRAGH FOLEY

Sam Eggington, what a finish!
Respect to Sam, tough lad and if you were in a fight with him you are in a fight! I always saw him as a top class journey man but he gets better and better. Pigford, what a tit, thought he would walk it, had to laugh. Low lead hand which soon became glued to his head before he got finished. What a performance from SE, superb!
|

Vitality stadium looks superb, done a great job with the venue, love the outdoor events!
What do we think about Okolies chin, can he take one is the question for me?

In reply to Post #2744
Okolie Smith could well be a good fight I go for Okolie by storage rounds 6 - 9
Lara Woods 2 with Lara having to vacate his World Title I'm sure it will make him even more determined to win tonight
Also the extra weight could really be a telling factor
Campbell Hatton on the undercard tonight be good to see our his progression

I hate to agree with you but you're defo right.Lomo won that fight,it was a good fight though but they need sort these judges out
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2740
Yes looking at the boxing stats apparently Loma threw and landed more punches and more power shots general feeling seems a close fight but loma should of won by 2 rounds??
I listened to Katie Taylor and sounds like she lost and was great scoring by the Judges so that's a bigwin for boxing
|
|
|
|
It was close but Lomo robbed for me
Haney has no power! Those body shots weren’t really scoring either, zero damage or effect. Does not like being hit either, every time Lomo landed a solid shot he look scared ****less!
Haney will struggle to continually make that weight for me too
|
|
|

Haney vs. lomo weigh in soon. Set to be a cracker this
Can’t make my mind up who will win this, if Haney does then that is some statement for me, and could be a champ for a long time, youth and all, great counter puncher and pretty slick with that low lead hand, there was only one Floyd Mayweather though lol. One thing for sure he ain’t fighting Kambosos tomorrow night and Loma is a great boxer, potential to be fight of the year for me and also a one sided affair too if Lomo has his number

Put both buatsi and yarde in against callum smith right now i know which one will walk out.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2727
Buatsi performance was very disappointing ok he won but looked very average
I didn’t see it but I keep an eye on him, he looks a class act but I was wondering how long it was before he reached his level or was it just a one off, will have to have a look. There’s quite a few fighters around that weight now that produce some very good fights imho. TBH, can’t see anybody coming close to Bivol for a while, solid boxing skills.
Buatsi vs. Yarde could be a UK cracker
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2728
100% agree about Lauren Price hard as nails also love the way she's always boxing on the front foot 🥊
As for Buatsi he looked proper ring rusty needs to up his game massively and fight real soon not leave it another 12 months

In reply to Post #2726
Buatsi performance was very disappointing ok he won but looked very average
and Canelo could not put on the knockout show that was expected
John Ryder was amazing losing on points took everything Canelo had and forced him to the distance losing on points
but seemed to me Canelo had lost a lot of his head movement and on that showing I cant see him beating Bivol ?
who he called out after the fight
saying he wants the rematch with Dmitry Bivol as his next fight in September. Canelo says he wants the Bivol bout at 175 lbs under the same terms as the last time they fought in May 2022
just cant see him beating Bivol ?
|
|

|

What a performance form JR, went the distance with the pound for pound king, tough man
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2724
yes I agree it would be amazing
but this match is in front of his passionate fans to put on a show after his recent defeat
and its expected to be a a one sided fight and ESPECIALLY as its his first
fight in his home country for the first time in more than 11 years !!! Mexican pride and all that
BUT this is boxing and unlikely things can and do happen sometimes and OMG wouldnt it be great if the upset happened
Live Fight Night:Buatsi v Stepien sky sports 19.00 tonight too

Wouldn’t it be brilliant if Ryder went out and beat him in his own back yard though? Unlikely I know, but JR is a tough man, you never know.

In reply to Post #2717
Masterclass from Davis
You don’t run a world class counter puncher down in the second as Garcia tried to do, you will get hit and he did. Tank touched Garcia’s right all night and took the jab away, Garcia couldn’t and didn’t throw the right or he would have got countered. 6-8 rounds he said, over in 7. Superb
Agree about the rematch. The old iron Mike analogy, everybody has a game plan until you get hit in the face. That was Garcia after the second
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2716
Tank just too powerful for Garcia
Has soon as Tank floored Garcia in the 2nd round it was only a matter of time before Tank stopped Garcia
Definitely no need for a rematch Garcia ain't in Tanks league

Joyce - Joshua good fight for both fighter's

Joyce looked completely lost against the southpaw stance of Zhang
|
|

In reply to Post #2704
Exactly
Joyce looks like he’s been run over by a bus, closed that eye in 3
Said it was a dangerous fight beforehand, should never have taken that
Zhang, powerful man, touched Joyce jab early on and blew him away
Poor movement from Joyce as the juggernaut gets derailed, said it to myself many times as I’ve watched him, great jab and can take a punch but very static and easy to hit
Could this set up Joyce and Joshua?
Who wants Zhang

In reply to Post #2685
the judges' scorecards with two cards scoring the fight 117-111 and the other 118-111 all in favour of Joshua
he clearly won the fight but he again seemed gun shy and lacked any real aggression ? its laughable he could get anywhere with the top men
I really hope Joe Joyce gets his chance at a big money fight fuk knows what Frank Warren is playing at and maybe Eddie Hearn is scared of big Joe and what he could do to his fighters ? ?

Good win for your boy
Benavidez gets the win, no way was that a UD from what I have seen, Plant landed so great shots all fight, I gave BV the last two to scape through
|
|
|
|
Watching Gomez Jr vs Giles,been a good fight and for me Giles is winning it.
Boxing is corrupt as ****,not a chance Gomez won that by the margin two judges gave it,at least one judge gave it right

Himself and Jack Flatley are headlining it.
Just hope that Nathan can get the victory as his dream stays alive which is to fight at the Brittania stadium for the British title.

Big one over the pond soon. Tank vs. Garcia, has the potential to be a cracker that, both unbeaten
Plant vs. Benavidez too, war, both look in great shape and I can’t see Plant wanting to lose this

ARTHUR VS SUAREZ

Nothing more than psychological games for me and Fury can afford to toy around
I did see Usyk saying Fury should donate to Ukraine as part of the deal, I’m guessing he might
Should be a good fight, Fury will rough him up big time, might have him out in the first 6 for me
It ain’t going to be a Joshua fight this

In reply to Post #2656
Looks like your right Gerry 70-30 split agreed just before the 10pm deadline.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2656
Even Andy Lee said in an interview that all the Fury family care about is money. It’s not right that a proper fighter like Usyk would have to take such a hit on the purse, after all he has the majority of belts. But, you get the feeling that Usyk would fight anyone for pride and hopefully the possibility of a unification will mean he’ll allow Fury’s b***ocks and the fight will still be made.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2655
Im quite shocked as Fury was always going on about he dont need the money blah blah then couple of years later he is demanding a 70/30 split ? wonder if its his gobby dad thats behind it ? anyway Usyk will give in and take the 30 I would bet
|
|
|
|
|
Looks like Tyson Fury is getting too greedy for the Usyk fight to go ahead. Surely they would want this fight to go ahead regardless of the purse just to unify the belts.

In reply to Post #2649
Was a bit of a farce
Credit to the YouTube bum he was better than I expected but he had been paying for some top trainers but you could see his wild punches now and again
Tommy Fury is still young but he struggled to dispatch Paul. Carries far too much muscle for me and without being disrespectful he is not world champ material, you tube / love island champ
Good discussion afterwards with. Carl Froch etc. when You tubers take over “world class” it’s where the moneys at, what is this world coming too

great night of boxing last night highlight for ME was the SKILLFUL Gary Cully !!!!! who stopped . Wilfredo Flores (TKO round 2) to win WBA intercontinental lightweight title JUST WATCH THE 2 ROUNDS
LINKY POO
SADLY Leigh Wood after winning most of the fight in round 7 Lara landed A HUGE LEFT HOOK that sent him to the floor he beat the count the ref was happy to let him carry on but his corner unexpectedly IMO threw the towel in
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2637
Looks good, he can box and moves well too, needs to work on the defence but let’s hope we have another decent British heavyweight
|
|
|
|
Anyone see David Adeleye tonight wow what a left hook 🥊
Maybe another future world heavyweight champion for Britain

Hey there. I'm just starting out and I'm in need of some advice on which gloves to buy. I've done a bit of research and found that Everlast, RDX, and Venum are popular brands for beginners. However, with so many options available, I'm curious to hear what you guys think. I'm looking for gloves that are affordable, durable, and comfortable. Actually, I like these beginner boxing gloves, so I'd like to hear what you think about them. I'm excited to get into boxing, but I want to make sure I'm equipped with the right gear. Thank you in advance for any tips or suggestions you can offer!

When you know that even if you hit him in the body with a baseball bat he would just smile at you!
Incredible workout. I used to do 5 x sets of 20 x 3 times a week, 20 legs up, 20 to the left, 20 to the right and then 20 normal in 5 sets lol and thought I was solid, what a pussy.

In reply to Post #2621
TBH Gerry, I thought he would be able to outbox BB, just if he could take the shots or not. Come on well Yarde and he looked in great physical shape. Some good men in that division though
The good news BB is touchable cause Yarde had him rocking, just couldn’t get enough on him sadly at the moment
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2620
yes he was ahead on 2 judges cards he has improved so much and shocked everyone it was just a brilliant match
I cant wait till Feb 11 when talented lightning fast Adam Azim fights again a World Champion in the making
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2619
It was a great performance by Yarde and I gave him the middle rounds, I would say from a score card perspective nothing in it until the stoppage but that BB game. I gave BB the fist two other than that I thought Yarde took the middle ones, plus they score on aggression and BB the aggressor was on the back foot!
Take away BB punch power he is nothing special, so easy to hit. Bivol will box his ears off, I would fancy Callum Smith too
One thing about Yarde he always seems to win the rematch, could be another?
Geat effort from Yarde
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2618
Nah I thought it was stopped at the right time
Yarde put on a good performance but at the end of a day he feel short
Beterbiev won but I wouldn't say his in a different league
|
|
|
|
Is it just me or should the referee have stopped it a little sooner as it looked like Yarde was out of it as he looked over to his corner for guidance?.
Well done Anthony, fought a cracker.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2616
yes Yarde was brilliant ! and it was a very close fight could of gone either way at any time I was well impressed with Yarde great heart
|
|

What a good performance by Yarde
Beterbiev had to be at his best to win
Proper quality fight 🥊🥊

I don't think Yarde is at the level he should be,I have never been a big fan of his

100 quid a month almost I pay on sky ffs lol when yarde has knocked him out in round 4 why did I not have my 20 quid on him....well 20 for the win at 5/1 anyway

In reply to Post #2612
yes
Beterbiev vs Yarde is available to watch live in the UK on BT Sport 1 and BT Sport Ultimate, with coverage of the undercard beginning at 7pm GMT. main event ring walk I reckon at 10.30 ish

Yarde has every chance I think, is it on telly anyway?
|

In reply to Post #2606
yes its a Big ask for Yarde but an upset is defo a possibility cant wait
|
|
|
|
Just hope Chris is seen with a woman (even if it’s a call girl) before any rematch as I dread to think of even more cringeworthy embarrassment that could follow.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2607
Let’s hope he does. Callum Smith fancy’s Beterbiev, I would like to see that

Really can't see Yarde beating Beterbiev but you never know there's been alot bigger shocks in the past

Beterbiev vs. Yarde, final press conference and face off is up, could be a cracker this
Cmon on Yarde, up against a real banger but I hope the Brit gets the win

That’s what you get when you have been eating KFC and are only 50% fit before the fight

50% yeah shame only 40% turned up on the night
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2597
not going to argue with you mate as I find your points just REALLY laughable !!!!!
and this snowflake I will get offended for you society
both said silly things as they got angry Eubank had been trying to wind up Smith for weeks 50% etc BOTH MEN APOLOGISED END OF ****ING STORY
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2597
Cmon mate, it’s nailed on he is
There is always bad mouthing and confrontation in press conferences, part of the parcel. End of the day it’s two people who want to virtually kill each other, how do fights on the street happen, I would like to fight you sir lol
I have seen some horrendous stuff, Chisora used to be a bit naughty, throwing tables and spitting on people for example. Eubank Jnr on the other hand is a complete and utter bell end, brought up with a silver spoon in his mouth and not lived a real life, I find it hard to relate to him and think he is weird. 95% of what comes out of it ain’t even funny though ffs, just stupid blerb that grinds people, does me, I guess about 95% of the population too. The man is a tit and I seriously wonder if the respect is really there and if it is not that is very bad. Lives in a dream world, he ain’t the fighter he believes he is. Two fights now I have seen Roy Jones talking to him, he does not listen or acknowledge him, like he is away with the fairies and he probably is, in his own little dream world thinking he is superior to all other fighters. He has had the opportunities many people cannot come close to either his dad (great fighter), paps corner man, Roy Jones $
I am not saying he cannot fight but he is certainly not at the level that he thinks he is, pound for pound king!

It’s not just about Eubank it’s about the wider picture of his words.
|
|
|
|
|
I’m no snowflake but picture the scene if there are up and coming boxers that are finding it difficult coming to terms with their very own sexuality and then they listen to that unhelpful 5h1te. Then again can’t be many boxers that have actually engaged their brain sensibly over the years.

In her interview you can tell it bothered her,it must not be nice to hear that no matter how tough she is

I would,nt worry Liams mrs is a tough girl from a tough family. Why did eubank come in with an Lbgt armband on got nothing to do with boxing but they have to ram it down your throat every minute of everyday ! If thats what you like its your business no one elses and not everyone wants to know about it.
Have a listen to what Carl froch had to say about the snowflakes and woke brigade !!!!
|
|
|

In reply to Post #2590
Eubank deserves everything he gets,he is an absolute tosser.It was not ok to try and public humiliate Smith about infidelity and it was probably hard for his wife to sit and listen to that too.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2586
Same as I say it was cringeworthy.
Édit. You get the usual 30110ck5 to put bums on seats but quite why he felt the need to say what he said I just don’t know. Got quite embarrassing in all honesty.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2586
Thats why promoters have press conferences to sell tickets. Ali said far worse things in his build up to fights no one slags him off. You would have heard alot worse if you had been ringside from both sets of supoorters from both men and women.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2586
bottom line Liam exposed him as did his 2 previous encounters with anyone with boxing skills
Agree
I don’t like him because he is full of *****, just cheap and not funny. Take my hat off to him though, he can fight but he can’t box, his defence is awful for starters
And let’s be fair, he has been trying to cherry pick his opponents to get up the ladder, Liam Williams was made for him and he thought Smith had gone, same with calling Kell Brook out the tit, and Conor Ben is as bad, go and get a proper fight, they won’t, but guess what, time is running out
|
|

Reports suggest that KFC have now dropped their sponsorship of Chris Eubank, Jr. following his defeat to Liam Smith. Lidl GB have reportedly swooped in with a sponsorship offer of £5.13 and a bag of carrots

|
|

In reply to Post #2579
Nothing wrong with asking someone if they are gay i would have used stronger words .Thats why our countries in a mess people scared to say anything .Eubank got beat in that press conference im my eyes .Im good enough to beat smith at 50% total bellend who has come unstuck everytime he faces quality.Roy jones actually had the towel ready to throw in and eubank still says he could have carried on.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2576
With his comments you can guarantee he will be asking for his rematch
|
|
|
|
Wanted Smith to win but then having seen his pre fight interview where he was going on about the sexuality of Eubank it’s such a shame that they didn’t knock seven bells out of each other and declare a draw.
Can both fcuk themselves for all I care.

I dont know if anyone would want to fight Euw**k now ? other than the rematch what else is out there now ?
its all about selling tickets at the end of the day
but I am sooo glad after all his 50% mouthing off and talking about proper boxers that are simply levels above him he again gets found out in spectacular fashion I love it
Im wondering ? when the excuses about the weight start coming ??

He needs to avoid GGG and should not even speak about him, he could get seriously hurt
|

Three times Eubank has stepped up in class and been shown up.GGG would absolutely destroy him and I hope Smith does again in the rematch

Pleasing end to the fight, nobody likes a gob *****, got what he deserved
When you have gave it plenty of that
You don’t half look a proper tit afterwards

“Take this **** to ****ing school Liam Smith”

Eubank looks like he has been kicked by a mule lol
Great shots by Smith, super patient, waited for the opportunity, timing superb. Class fishing too, straight on him second time, over and out. Eubank was out on his feet the whole time. Laughing at Smith who stepped up in weight, want a rematch, yep at my weight?
Maybe he has had too much KFC

Really looking forward to this fight tonight really want Smith to win this but it will probably need him to be at his 100% best
Good undercard tonight with Joe Parker back in the ring
Be good to see Frazer Clarke again
|
|
|
|
Weigh in is up
Smith won the face off for me, Eubank blinked several times, when you look it somebody eyes and tell them how it’s going to roll out they know lol
Both men look in great shape, set up to be a cracker. I hope Smith destroys him, if he gets inside and lands the body shots he wins for me. Needs to be careful on they way in though. Liam Williams was made for Eubank, just walked onto his jab trying to kill him. He needs to avoid this
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2559
GGG Would still school Eubank all day long let's hope the fight can be made but fingers 🤞 Liam Smith can turn back years and win next weekend
Bit of a pattern here with Eubank only wanting to fight boxers who i'd say past there best
|
|
|
|
Oh so Euw**k is now calling out GGG !
thinking as he is over 40 now he has a chance of beating him I hope GGG takes the match and destroys him
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2557
Similar to me. Quality boxer and highly experienced, on paper a very dangerous fight for Eubank. A Smith of a couple of years ago would have wiped the floor with him easily for me, let’s hope he still can

In reply to Post #2554
Love to see Liam Smith beat Eubank jnr but sadly I feel Liam as passed his best days
But one can only hope he can turn back the clock a few years to shut up Eubank jnr hope once and for all
|

In reply to Post #2555
I agree Liam definitely has the ability few years ago he would have really done a number on him just hope he has got enough left in the tank and his timing speed etc still there proper grudge match I envy you being there hope its a cracker

Ill be at this one Gerry although i know the smith family they are not what i would call friends rival gym at the time to one i was involved with however am hoping he shuts eubanks gob , As you say his old man was fantastic , eccentric but hard as nails . Jnr has never set the world on fire and i would have loved connor benn to have battered him . Liam smith is nearing the end but i hope he has enough .
|
|

Chris Eubank Jr will fight Liam Smith on Saturday 21st January 2023 at Manchester Arena in Manchester.
And I hope that cocky smug s**t house gets beaten
I liked his dad even though he was weird outside the ring
( I drove past him when he was running early morning and shouted out alright nostrils then nearly **** myself when I saw the lights ahead but they stayed green !)
I just cant stand the son I only need 50% childish pathetic ****

In reply to Post #2551
Was a cracking shot that finished him
I like to watch CBS, always gives it his all, proper entertainer, loves a fight. I think he leaves himself open and takes too many shots which when he steps up it will cost him if he does not work on the defence, also, might be just me, thought the pace was a gear or two short, could be wrong?
Up the ladder he goes, great night for the Bournemouth fans

Got a bit of a scare in the 2nd but what a shot to finish it.I think he also did well not to swing again as the guy was slumped over and went down hard

Same as mine. Could be the fight of the year, both unbeaten
Avanesyan gave it a go and landed some good shots, he can hit and Crawford took them before turning on the class, super sharp, super accurate, great boxer, probably the best out there at the moment, different class
|
|
|

In reply to Post #2546
Yeah I think Crawford would win be a good fight though

Manny Pacquiao I didn't even know he was still fighting
Time for Josh Warrington to maybe look at retirement Terrence Crawford wasn't even tested by what a spectacular finish
Let's hope the Crawford - Spence fight can be made in 2023

QUOTE
Andy Ruiz Jr has noted that Deontay Wilder is looking to bypass a fight with him to face former-champion, Anthony Joshua.
Ruiz, who recently beat Luis Ortiz over twelve, was ordered to face Wilder by the WBC in what would be a final eliminator for a shot at Tyson Fury’s title. Whilst many fans applauded the matchmaking, it seems that Wilder would like to make other plans.
His manager, Shelly Finkel, this week reached out to Eddie Hearn, who represents Anthony Joshua. Finkel said that it was the fight Wilder wanted over the Ruiz bout, and would ‘give anything’ to make it happen.

Dubois can give one but he can’t take one! A better man would have had him out of there in round 2 last night, gone!
I see Wilder is fighting Ruiz, Ruiz needs to be all over him and he has a chance, if he sits back, bomb squad
Be interesting to see who the winner of that will fight, bronze bummer vs. Fury 4

Josh Kelly v Troy Williamson
Well! cant understand Williamson`s tactics ?
he was being completely outboxed and just didnt seem to target the body to try and slow Kelly down at all ? I think Williamson needs a new trainer and corner !!
but Kelly`s footwork was amazing
I see tonight's Tyson Fury vs Derek Chisora 3 from the O2 is early

Deffo a star I think in the making Azim, looks superb
If he has the chin, as I see it, still to be proven, but could be a future world champ. Reminds me of Khan when he was a kid, lighting fast hands, long and gangly, most people struggled to get a glove on him because of this.

Good win for Ryder

Great performance by LW but he needs to improve his timing, saying that he was probably desperate to perform, some solid shots though!
Deserves a rematch with Eubank Jr. for me, I was disappointed with that one ffs

I watched it mate. Wouldn’t say it was a unanimous decision but he boxed well, very fast hands. I thought he would struggle with a taller man due to his style, I gave Ramirez 5 of the first 6 but after that Bivol came on strong.I thought Ramirez could have done better though, if he had, pretty level fight for me

That overhand right in the 5th nearly took GGG face off lol. Some superb body shots landed too, real punishing ones. Canelo looked super sharp at that weight, just nullified the jab, should have done that with Bivol.
Both me superbly conditioned though

Weigh in is on the tube, both men look in awesome shape
Should be another cracker, GGG try’s the jab job (Bivol style), Canelo masterclass in slipping and counter, should be another great fight, can’t imagine what is going through their heads as they look at each other for a third time, know each other and understand it’s another brutal night

Echo that, looks like a proper match up, could be a fight of the year contender with a bit of luck. SM better be on top form when they meet, from what I have seen of CS she is superb, like a woman's Floyd Mayweather, looks to have the lot except outright power, should be an absolute cracker

yes it was a picture of one of the boxing pages but he was as you say nothing like that ?
wasn't it an edge of the seat fight though Ruiz has got a great chin and thundering power Ortiz did well to go the 12 rounds after being floored so many times

Apart from the Natasha Jonas fight that was 10/10, that was THE worst card of boxing i have ever watched. Boxxer needs serious work.
A main event that ended in a dive, **** all wrong with his ankle. A British light heavyweight fight that was more like a sparing match and poor Frazer Clarke i think only hit his opponent twice.

I think if they fought again! He might win
I think he is a scared fighter myself and holds back, he needed to get Usyk in the corner, batter him, elbow him, lay on him and just proper ruff him up, and he did not ffs
|
|
|

Joshua has a contract with DAZN so is assured of a few fights he cleverly jumped from Sky to DAZN in June with an incredible £100m DAZN deal
but he again got the tactics wrong but did a lot better this time Im not very good at scoring but the only rounds I thought he clearly won was 3 and 9
in the 9th he could of won but the 10th lost it completely
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2453
When you are at that level and with that much wealth I don’t think money really comes into it? it’s the challenge
Your right, he lost to the better man on two occasions but the sad bit, he seemed more bothered about the social media backlash which is pretty ****ing sad that it even comes into it, very sad indeed but that is a sign of the times, the cyber generation

Broke down in the post fight press conference too, would you belive it, a 17 stone man in tears, that’s reality. I condone what he did with the belts, it takes a bigger man to admit he was wrong and he did but I guess that’s emotions, passion and life
Wonder what they said when Ali threw the belt off the bridge, or maybe Joshua was just trying to copy him but couldn’t find a bridge

Boxing will give people more self discipline and respect for others than any sport I can think of. Joshua was down and out, on his arse, doomed for a life of crime, he got hisself out of it, respect the man for that, it’s a pathway for others, same as any sport, a normal kid who has done well for himself, multi millionaire, ideal role model for me, got off his arse and done something with his life!

I will say one thing for Joshua, great role model for the kids, mountain of a man, can’t knock him for that
As for Usyk, for a 16 stone man, incredible level of fitness, those last 3 rounds he just upped the game, looked like he could have done 15 at a breeze

Let’s hope Usyk Fury happens, could be a good one that
I’m sure Hearn will sort AJ another easy route to a title fight, that he will loose again. He could fight Wilder, that I would love to see but that will never happen.
After his emotional breakdown, his choice, but as for throwing the belts out of the ring, that is disrespectful to the sport, there are far better fighters than him who have owned them with pride, and rightly so

Eddie must of paid that judge a bit more,Fury would destroy Usyk and AJ.I hope them fights happen just to shut up the idiots

To be fair it takes two men to make a fight and Joshua performed a lot better than the first but Usyk is still levels above him. For me like Gerry said it should have been a unanimous decision. I just don’t get some of the scorecards, these are career defining moments that some absolute fool can destroy. They should really interview the judges and ask them to justify their thinking, I wonder if some drop to sleep between rounds, some of the cards are beyond ridiculous and these are from men who no doubt have a passion for the sport ffs

And both of them rocked him. A younger VK would have wiped the floor with him.
There is not a heavyweight out there that wouldn’t want a pop at him, glass jaw, can’t train that
The only thing that has made Joshua great for me is Hearns management and promotion. If he had met Wilder, like he should have done and Fury that would be two more loses on his record early doors
After this the winner should fight Fury and if it does not happen it tells you how corrupt boxing is. He deserves the chance to unify the belts. He will be waiting I’m sure

Joshua has shown he had the confidence and power to close fighters down and finish them.He did it against Klitschko and Whyte,since Ruiz finished him he looks scared of getting caught as he gets rocked quite easily for a big guy
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2417
AJ is not the fighter he was since Ruiz
Has never been that fighter for me
It could turn out to be a cracker. Heavyweight boxing, one punch at any time in the fight can end it. Joshua has the power no doubt, he has to land though. From the first fight, I think we alll know he has to have Usyk out of there in the first half of the fight or he’s fighting on pure luck, the one punch. Usyk, superb boxer, class act with great movement, hand speed and timing. All depends if Joshua can close him down and put him on it, can’t win a fight unless you can land. For me Joshua needs to be on point with the jab, push him into the corners and leather his body hard when he slips him, he has the power
I will go for a USYK knockout / stoppage in 9 or 10. I wouldn’t be surprised if Usyk finishes it earlier as Joshua try’s to close him down and gets battered
|

Usyk will finish AJ before the 10th round,AJ is not the fighter he was since Ruiz.He has never been a very good boxer(no defence or movement)Usyk has a great boxing brain and knows he can hurt him.The only chance AJ has got is to catch him early with a big shot,I just think Usyk is too clever though
|
|
|

In reply to Post #2413
Usyk for me Gerry a more technical talented fighter who knows he can hurt joshua. But joshua has the power to spark anyone and it only takes one good punch . If joshua cant bully an opponent he looks lost and runs out of ideas .I will go for usyk on points.

For me Joshua has to do what got him to the top and use his power if he hasn't done that by the 4/5th then it's Usyk's fight then again i know little about boxing.
|
|
|
|
so Cmon who you got ?
personally I think Usvk will go for a Knockout another 30 seconds on the last round of their last fight and he would have done just that
BUT!!! Joshua knows its a fight he has to win and despite what some may think he certainly has the ability to knockout Usvk
for me its definitely a 50/50 match with Joshua`s power and Usvk`s boxing ability
Very good undercard too starts at 18.00 but expect main event ring walk after 22.00
ON A FINAL NOTE I AM BRITISH AND SUPPORT OUR MAN

Think the same, when he lost to Avanesyan, i thought that was his level, not knocking Avanesyan, great fighter but he is not the best at that low hand style Kelly, looks a good showboater but the reality is like you lacks the killer shots

As for the Geordie shore star, if the lad can box and he is serious, respect, if he is another bum looking for a bit of fame I hope he gets a good hiding, nothing good towards the image of the sport if so. Should create a mugs league and let them all slap each other in there

it wouldnt surprise me to see Eubank v Saunders 2
|
|
|
|
I hope Eubank gets sparked out and his career is put to bed, absolutely no interest whatsoever for me. The blueprint is out there, George Groves absolutely humiliated him with counter punching, Liam Williams was made for Eubank, egressive fighter who will walk onto anybody. As for Benn, I hope he wins. I don’t think either come anywhere near there fathers, great warriors in their day
As said, Eubank is 32, I would love to see him fight GGG
It’s where Benn goes next for me, needs to look for those big fights, I think he is ready for them too, lot of experience now

In reply to Post #2395
This is true. Some truly awful boxing journalists over there. Scott gilfoid being the worst imo. Joe calzaghe was just a slapper who never fought anyone of note lol, Carl froch was gifted his world title, Tyson fury is only successful because he cheats.. think they are just bitter because they just don't have the talent they used to over there. And to be honest it's hardly surprising, an athlete can box and maybe make a few quid, or can play "football" and make millions.

In reply to Post #2394
Yeah i saw that Benn is only 25 i think and eubank 32 ? So benn is hardly cashing out yet , americans dont rate eubank or benn but they never rate british boxers highly.To be honest Benn does,nt need this i would rather him concentrate on the welterweight division but they must think he can beat eubank as he has been treated with kid gloves upto now.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2392
Do you ever go on boxing news 24 Jeff? There's some guy just written an article on there saying Benn is cashing out on his career with this fight, and that he's being "fed to the wolves" and likening the right to when Kell stepped up against ggg. Those Americans have some right funny ideas about boxing
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2392
It's definitely been on the cards for a long time now, I think it's the right time now. Any earlier and Benn wouldn't have the experience , any later and who knows what eubank would have left in him. If Benn can stop him that's quite a statement
|

In reply to Post #2391
Thats a good point Ian weight can be a massive issue and can totally change a fighter im 6ft 4 and at 17 1/2 stone could really bang but was much slower than i was at 16 stone but then did,nt hit as hard but was very quick ,Its a fight that everyone has been wanting since they both turned pro and one im really looking forward to. I obviously was nowhere near at the level these 2 are a million miles away in fact but weight is crucial.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2390
Yeah it's going to be a big one just because of the history for sure. Agreed I think Benn has the tools to do the job ,I wonder if the extra weight may slow him down a little? Should be a good one.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2389
I think benn will be too quick and too powerful for eubank ,but eubank is a strange one to work out , some fights he looks decent others very average infact lazy in parts.I do think its amazing given their fathers history destiny i suppose.

Eubank going have to box smart and keep the distance. Otherwise I don’t believe he will be able take the best shot of Benn.
Going be an intriguing clash of styles to watch.

Eubank has a good bit of timber to shed before then I'd say. Seen him and his old man both quite a bit lately around Mayfair in their Bentley convertible looking rather tubby . The old man looks in better shape!

Wilder is coming back against Robert helenius
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2380
Wilder is made for a young Mike Tyson, slips inside and on him, he would have him out of there in two or three. Wilder has one thing, Dynamite in that right hand and that’s it. IF and it’s a big IF, Chisora could slip and get inside like he showed against Pulev he has a chance. Chisora is a million miles off Mike Tyson and I can’t see him having that one good punch in the fight to floor Wilder either, that’s what he needs
Wilder cannot fight off the back foot and has got no stamina to do the rounds at pace, one of the most successful one dimensional boxers I have ever seen, one trick pony but it has worked for him. That’s heavyweight boxing, often comes down to who got the biggest hammer
|
|
|

In reply to Post #2379
yes I think he would get knocked out fairly quickly but he would get what he wanted life changing money and then probably retire

In reply to Post #2376
To be fair it was a very well matched fight. Chisora slipping Pulev in the first half of the fight got the win for me, great body shots from Del throughout though. Pulev, timing poor but saying that Chisora moved well. Fantastic though
Calling out Wilder, no, no, no
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2375
I was waiting for someone to get knocked out all the way thru the war IMHO Pulev was warned far too many time and this is your last chances the ref should of took a point
it was the right decision for me so glad he won in front of his family
Split decision
Scorecards : 116-112 Pulev,
116-112 Chisora, 116-114 Chisora

I think he is hoping Usyk comes through against Joshua and he gets another shot at Usyk and the chance of a belt
Looked well off a top level fighter on Saturday for me, saying that I think he was just intent on blowing Hammer out of there quickly
Be interesting to see what happens if Usyk beats Joshua. Tyson Fury will be after a unification but he could try and slip him and take Joyce?

I wouldn't be so sure about Joyce, i think he could shock a few people in the next couple of years.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2362
Usyk will beat Joyce around the ring for 12 rounds. Not even close to being a decent fight. Joyce has a bit of power, and a decent chin. He's a fringe contender /European level fighter at best. Way too slow and way too easy to hit to cause any of the top lads any problems
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2362
He is way too slow and 37 in a few weeks he is,nt going to get any quicker.
|
|
|
|
**** me, watched the Joyce fight, he ate some leather there, some cracking shots by Hammer
Let’s hope he never faces Wilder, I would give him two rounds max
Can’t take shots like that at world level, so easy to hit
Usyk rematch is the one for Joyce for me

In reply to Post #2349
Nathan has had to pull out as he’s damaged his shoulder during training. SCFC have been looking after him in the hope he could make the fight but was unfortunately deemed medically unfit.
Hoping obviously that it isn’t serious at all. I’ve wished him all my best and not messaged him thereafter as he’s totally devastated.
Edit - He’s refunded all those (650) followers who had purchased tickets including my own and a few mates of mine who we were going hire a car with.
I’m surprised to get a refund in all honesty considering its a show and a chance that you take. Mind you though probably wouldn’t be the best plan to 9155 off 650 people….

Decent card on saturday from wembley joe joyce headlines, mark chamberlain,jason cunningham
Nathan heaney,etc

Do not forget the fight tonight (from 7pm on sport sports main event) between river wilson bent and Tyler Denny for the English middleweight title as it promises to be a belter.
On another note i cant say what but i’m absolutely devastated for a good mate of mine. Will become Known shortly but fair to say i’m well n truly gutted.

In reply to Post #2344
I honestly don't think he would,Usyk is too skillful for him and has great movement.As Scozza says AJ has to put it on him and catch him in the early rounds,I just don't see it happening though

|
|

In reply to Post #2339
Soooooo many good fights Gerry, I would look at eras
Duran, Leonard, Haggler and Hearns, some belters here
Benn and Eubanks fights
Iron Mike, awesome!
Ali, some absolute classics, brutally long rounds and rope a dope with Foreman, what a fight!
Mayweather masterclass
Packman, what a performer he has been, the Della Hoya beating is a classic for me
Gatti and Ward is a classic
Right back, Lamotto, Robinson and more, all on the tube
Edit - off to watch. Ali and Foreman now

In reply to Post #2343
If AJ is going to win this he has to get Usyk out of there in 5 or 6 for me. Usyk is a completely different boxer to Ruiz so that pokey long jab he used in that rematch win to keep him off will not work in this one, Usyk can box! He has to blow Usyk out of there, put it on him, which could make it an interesting one otherwise he gets his ears boxed off again in the later rounds
If it goes passed 6 i wouldn’t be surprised if Usyk puts his lights out in 8, I remember he rocked him last time and felt he could have finished it and eased off. Could actually turn out to be a cracker for the fans

In reply to Post #2343
You make good sense I know, I have always put too much emphasis on size as the wife tells me regular lol. An angry busy aj in a 3 round fight would he win then?

In reply to Post #2342
I dont see AJ winning the rematch,he can't box.He has no movement,no defence and Usyk has too much for him in every department.AJ should use his size and power but let's not forget Usyk was the one that finished the first fight stronger and nearly finished AJ

In reply to Post #2340
'Am I saying some fights are fixed? Absolutely. If you ask for too much money, or if you're behaving like a primadonna, they'll have you bumped off. Judges can be indirectly influenced by nice hotel rooms, champagne, women, backhanders and the like. It goes on. However, fighters would do well to remember this: the politics is only an illusion put in place to hold you down. If you keep winning, you can still have your voice. An unbeaten record empowers. If you suspect that arrangements have been made against you, you will simply have to knock the man down before the end of round twelve.'

Pascal beat Browne, how long has he been in the game! Other than that a spent Badu Jack. Not saying he is a bad fighter but at 37 years old, it’s now, great power but easily hittable what I have seen, against somebody like GGG he would be out of there in 5 for me. Bivol, boxes his ears off
But at 37, respect

JOSH TAYLOR WAR OF WORDS REMATCH !!

Looks like Antony Yarde might get a shot with Beterbiev. Can’t say I’d fancy getting in the ring with him much but fair play to Yarde if he takes it. Bivol vs Berterbiev could be an absolute battle.

I see Parker pulled out of the Joyce fight at OVO arena Wembley on 2nd July.
I’ll be there as Nathan will be defending his IBO title though his opponent is not known yet but I’d imagine a step up from his last fight where he visited the canvas in the first. Will put it up soon as I know but whoever it is come on Nathan and above all else pray that all boxers go home safe.

I was interested to see how far JB could go, found his level tonight. Tried to blow Richards away early and it didn’t work, he was gased for me after 7. Good rope work from Richards, should have laid on JB more and took advantage. Good fight though

In reply to Post #2302
Did you watch it Gerry? Good fight. I’m a spider fan and he finished strong but the result was fair. I’d love to see a rematch but I can’t see JB being interested and understandably so. Didn’t see enough from JB to see him troubling Bivol. Both the kids had good strong chins though, nice to see the respect and they will likely cross paths again one day. Both had a bit of class for south of the river, it’s not the rule down there

Oh I agree he won't fight the same way again and will definitely try to get inside more to throw those shots. I just can't see it happening. Bivol will be expecting a better canelo for sure, and that's why he'll be better himself next time around. It should be an absolute cracker
|

In reply to Post #2292
I’ve already said why he didn’t thrown the left to the body. Do you think he is going to come out again and fight in exactly the same way! He has to change things. If he can get that left hand working he has a chance. He ain’t going to come out and try to out jab a man with a superior reach. Since he has gone up in weight he has changed his style with the high guard and just try’s to walk people down with power punches. He needs to feint jabs and throw jabs to get inside him to land the power shots. Look at the GGG fights, he fought him on the back for in the first and the front in the second. What your stating is a no brainier, Bivol looked superb and I will repeat, anybody would expect him to win the second on that peformance. I will say this again, it’s all down to Canelo, Bivol will have learned a bit but he ain’t going to change much from the win. Another 12 to go
As for benavidez, good fighter but he has not exactley fought any big names at the moment and he had a spilt decision against the Romanian. Lemieux next, could say benavidez is picking his fights there

In reply to Post #2291
You got the was bit right about kovalev mate. But when canelo fought him he was past his best by quite a way. He won't get near to bivol to launch the body attack. If he wants a proper challenge which makes sense the it has to be benavidez. Nobody else at the weight will really be much of a problem for canelo. But benavidez has been avoided by him for a reason
|
|
|

In reply to Post #2290
He destroyed Kovalev who was a proper pound for pound match for anybody, nuff said. For me though the guys at this weight are shedding to make it, probably hang around a stone or two heavier at their natural weight, Canelo is making it and fighting men much bigger than him, don’t ever say he does not like a challenge lol
Bivol used the jab to perfection, it wasn’t a stiff one from the hip it was just a continuous flicking one to manage the range and get the points win. Great boxing performance
The rematch is a real 50/50 and any betting man would put his money on Bivol based on the last fight, once you have somebody’s number you could probably fight them 10 times and win. The second fight will be all about how Canelo adapts. Full body work out on Bivol and he would be out of there for me. Like I said though, Canelo didn’t want to let the left go, that could be down to Bivol right, hardly thrown but ready to counter. It’s the test of a real champion this, how he comes back, Bivol got the points, not the knockout. I think Canelo was more frustrated than beat up.

In reply to Post #2289
You think he will win the rematch? It wasn't even close ? The scorecards were a joke, far too close . I think bivol wins again, and quite comfortably too. Canelo just isn't naturally big enough to deal with the size guys up at lhw. And the talk of going up again to hw is comical. He'd have no chance against the big boys. Not the decent ones anyway. The way he's going up and up in weight I'm surprised he hasn't tested positve for peds again
Just read bivol wants the rematch at super middle, closer to canelos natural weight class ,just to prove he's better
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2288
I think the Bivol rematch will seal his fate as the pound for pound king in that division, for me, he ain’t naturally that big, another tuff and testing fight that
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2287
I mean cherry picked in the way that he saw bivol as the easiest title holder in the lhw division mate. Some of his opponents have been questionable ,certainly cherry picked. Rocky fielding being prime example. Amir khan another. Maybe he got over confident because of the kovalev fight for going up again? Even that fight he could have made a year or 2 earlier rather than waiting until he saw kovalev on the slide .Hell of a fighter don't get me wrong, just seems to me he does avoid a few people. He's got a lot of miles on the clock even though he's only 31, I wonder how long he can keep it up because I can't see him being one to carry on until he starts to slip too far
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2286
Interesting thoughts mate. Cherry picking Bivol? He is a future / now pound for pounder if ever I have seen one, unbeaten and looking for a step up the ladder, hardly cherry picked, I would say peaking at his prime unless you think he took it before he peaked?
One thing I like about Canelo, he openly states he wants to fight the best all the time, Mark of a true fighter for me that
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2285
He was humble in the ring mate yes. But he now reckons he only lost 3 rounds!!!! I'd say that's all he won. He tried to cherry pick another belt and it backfired .
I think he'll deal with charlo fairly comfortably but benavidez won't be a pushover and canelo knows that, that's why he's been avoiding him for the last couple of years
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2284
I think Canelo will blow those two away quite easily, hope they happen!
Bivol got the job done, quick flicking jab to keep him off balance and out of range. Brilliant game plan, boxed him beautifully, dictated the distance and kept that right hand guard glued to his face all night. Brilliant performance.
If there is a rematch it will be interesting. Bivol was asking for the left to the body all night and Canelo hardly threw it, if he had he might have taken a Bivol right
To be fair, I think in Canelos last few fights he has been so confident he just thinks he can walk people down and eventually he will land the killer shot. Not against Bivol on the night. To be fair I expected him to switch it about a bit but he didn’t. Respect though, humble in defeat, best man won on the night is what he said in the ring
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2283
There will be. Canelo thinks he won
Better to rematch and have the excuses ready (too big, stamina etc etc) than face the threats of charlo and benavidez at his own weight class where he would have to admit losing to the better man . Don't get me wrong canelo is a great fighter, but he's been protected over the years and done a hell of a lot of cherry picking
|
|
|
|
Bivol, unanimous decision
Said below it was a dangerous fight for Canelo, Bivol is a solid boxer. Wonder if there will be a rematch?

Tricky one to predict. If I was a betting man my money would be on Canello, for me he either blows him away and shows his class or it goes to the later rounds
Has the potential to be a cracker if Bivol is on the top of his game, and he certainly needs to be!!!

Canello is the best boxer on the planet for me right now. Not seen too much of Bivol but he looks a good solid boxer when I have, I like him. Dangerous fight for me and could be Canellos biggest test to date. Saying that, we’re are talking about a real pound for pound superstar here

that was a scorching fight too !!!!!!!!!!!!!

In reply to Post #2269
Watched the replay, boxed her well in the early rounds, cleanest punches by far, thought she was nearly out of there in the 5th, showed great heart though. Just felt a good uppercut could have been her killer punch on the night with Serrano coming in all the time, think Serrano seemed to tire after the 5th too? Close that but a hell of a fight and the headline at the garden, amazing really
A rematch could be dangerous

In reply to Post #2260
That is mental, switches to southpaw against a boxer who can fight in both stances and doesn’t do a thing. I have seen a lot of bad decisions over the years but some are bordering on plain stupidity
I agree. The JC one was horrendous and at the end of his day it’s a loss on his professional record
To be honest, I have gone off Josh Taylor a bit because of this, he got his ears well and truly boxed off, bet to the punch and for a world champ was pretty clueless, one dimensional. Can’t say it’s his fault at all but when you are beat you know you are beat, even “the decision really surprised me” would have been a bit more respectful
Canelo vs. Bivol soon, can’t see that going to the score cards, should be a cracker, his hardest fight to date for me, I like Bivol, great solid boxer but he has to be punch perfect to stand a chance here for me

Different level to the rest following the Wilder fights for me, tonight he showed it. Fantastic boxer who now has good power too
The sad thing for me if that’s him done it shows how political and corrupt boxing is because he should have had the chance to unify those belts several times
No detriment to Whyte either, solid British heavyweight who is still competitive with what’s around for me, tough man
David Haye, once a good boxer but on the panel, what a knob

Your paying for a British super fight. Not looked at the undercard until now:
Ekow Essuman vs Darren Tetley
Tommy Fury vs Daniel Bocianski (light-heavyweight)
Isaac Lowe vs Nick Ball (Featherweight)
David Adeleye vs Chris Healey (Heavyweight)
Kurt Walker vs Stefan Nicolae (Super-Featherweight)
Karol Itauma vs Michal Ciach (Light-Heavyweight)
Royston Barney-Smith vs Constantin Radoi (Super-Featherweight)
One thing for sure, Whyte will give it his all, tuff man who can take some punishment, coming in heavy too.
It will go to a stoppage this one, Whyte has to get inside or it’s curtains in 5 for me, only chance he has. I expect a boxing display from Fury, has him on the jab, toys and outclasses him before he finishes him
Heavyweight boxing though, anything could happen, two 18 stone fighting men
|
|
|
|
I wonder if you intelligent boxing brains could tell me if you think the Fury vs Whyte card is worth paying to watch? Excluding Fury vs Whyte, the card looks totally diabolical and im kinda loathe to pay £25 for one fight.
Any of you long time, knowledgable fight fans have thoughts?

Fury vs. Whyte, final press conference is up. After all the trash talking quite a bit of respect which is nice to see, even though they will get in the ring and try and kill each other

Indeed, too square on as should have moved to the his left more.
Should have used that straight right more often too.
No excuses he says, just didn’t keep his concentration when he got tagged.

He came into that fight with a decent record 28 wins only 2 losses i think , benn has got some power still a bit wild but he is looking good to me .
As for Nathan heaney , he did well after that knockdown he stood too square on when coming in and ramirez was looking for that one punch all the time .all the same he is winning and will learn from it.I thought it was a Good performance against a tricky opponent .listened to his interview after the fight today and yeah he is a likeable bloke .

Good result for your pal, you must be well please

The way I saw it was that Nathan started brightly and was hurting his opponent with those body shots so much to the extent that he spat out his dummy to get a breather. I felt this annoyed Nathan so much that he didn’t gather his concentration quickly enough and got tagged. Felt that Nathan was off balance and it was this more than the power in the shot that put him on the canvas.
I couldn’t scream any louder from the back of the arena ‘though I was close enough’ to make my voice heard so quickly went down to the front to offer my support. Kept shouting to keep your distance and discipline Nathan, in and out and not stand in front of him. After round 7 I felt Nathan was in front and needed to keep to what he was doing and the victory would be his. Shouted in round 8 that you’re boxing well Nathan and to keep the discipline and that it would be yours as the fitness he has is amazing and is deserving of good things that may come his way.
All in all I thought he kept his concentration well and didn’t get embroiled in a scrap after he had visited the canvas as that would have being both the easiest but wrong thing to do.
Got a fantastic coach in Steve Woodvine who Nathan adores and thinks so highly of him.
Thankfully all boxers went home safe and sound and I’m so proud of Nathan. I even got asked during my non stop support if I was his dad as I was shouting every second.
Well done Nathan and onto the next chapter in your career.
All the best mate you deserve nothing but good things from the sport.
|
|
|
|
Well, bit inconclusive that performance from Benn, the other lad wasn’t at the races.
He needs to be careful if he starts calling big names out for me. Brona would be a good shout for me. He needs to up his game and the quality of the opponent he is fighting now too for me
|

In reply to Post #2233
Sorry mate but only just seen your post.
On next on BT Sports as he’s on the card of Jason Cunningham.
Just hope Nathan can claim another victory and continue to progress.
Above all else hope all boxers go home safe and that there’s no trouble from those following him as it’s been pretty rowdy already with a fight going on outside the ring but not from his followers thankfully.
Just hope the night passes too with no trouble.
Come on Nathan - pleeeeeeease.
Edit - Strangely enough Serge Ambomo was on the card earlier and ended with a draw.
Nathan like when he fought Ambomo has got to stay switched on against his opponent Ramiirez.

Well if you have Olympic gold medals and loads of world titles you got to be able to box and much as I rate Marshal she would need to really hurt her early to get the stoppage or I fear she will get out boxed but really looking forward to it

Agree
Shields is a superb boxer, one of the best woman I have seen, got the lot except power for me, not convinced on that. SM better get that jab on point and the timing spot on because that’s the only thing that is going to get her through this for me, keeping Shields on the end of it and landing the big shots is the key, otherwise Shields wins for me, she has fantastic movement and a great skills set

Remember that too and never even looked an hard hit either.
Looks like it’ll be a similar fight to when Nathan fought Serge Ambomo where Serge doesn’t really do much as goes looking for that one hit wonder.
Stay patient, work behind those jabs, body shots, get those fast hands going and don’t get tagged.

Just a smokescreen mate. If it was me I would have honestly placed all of those belts on the shoulder of my opponent because it is not morally right to accept them because it’s those youngsters who may just think ‘why the fcuk should I bother’ and that in itself is tragically sad.
That is what it is going to take and I’d imagine it’d feel a whole lot better than what any world title could ever bring.

Great night of boxing totally ruined by the last fight , seen some thefts in the ring in my time and nothing ever changes but that was terrible. I thought josh won 3 maybe 4 of the rounds which could of been even but he was always behind and he was knocked down and a point deducted there was no way he could have drawn never mind win. Total travesty and everyone in the crowd knew it , we left wondering what the hell had just happened !Another sad night for british boxing , disgraceful actually.

Well done Paddy Power
Those judges should never be allowed to score a fight again, just an unbelievable decision that. Josh Taylor got his head well and truly boxed off, the world could see that and he knows it, shocking decision. Like mentioned, it really does question the foundations and credibility of the sport, what a ****ing joke that was 
|

Paddy Power have announced that they're refunding bets on Jack Catterall to win and have described the split decision for Josh Taylor as an "absolute robbery". McDonnel seemed biased towards Taylor IMO

Outboxed, outclassed and now masquerading as a world champion. I’d have much preferred to have handed all of those belts to my opponent upon hearing that result and until someone actually does that then nothing will ever change.
It’s absolutely sickening.

Edit: Jack Catterall has literally had his life ruined, the poor guy has given up his whole life for that one fight, and 3 corrupt judges, getting back handers ruin his life. I genuinely feel sickened and cant see how i can continue with boxing.

Embarrassing for the sport.

What a performance that from JC and credit to Jamie Moor, did a job on JT
I struggle to give Taylor 3 rounds in that, outboxed from the off
Taylor wanting to fight in the inside and couldn’t get in for the jab and just got tied up when he did
Edit - what an absolute load of ****ing bollox 
That has got to be one of the worst decisions ever

Good luck to Josh taylor tonight I will be in the crowd but only because i could,nt get a ticket for tomorrow !!

Oleksandr Usyk has returned back to his home country of Ukraine the moment he heard of Russia's potential invasion. He could have stayed in the UK and been comfortable spending the millions that he earned winning the heavyweight crown from Anthony Joshua - What a hero. Stay safe champ
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2178
I’ve never thought much to Joshua either. There was plenty people suggesting that he’d be too big for Usyk but my thoughts were that he’ll be too quick for Joshua, could stay out if his way and frustrate him.
I just can’t take to Fury and if they do meet then I wouldn’t be disappointed if Usyk wins it, in fact I’d love for him to beat Fury, but I just dont see it.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2176
Joshua ain’t the fighter people think he is. The size of him he could have just layed it on Usyk and smashed him out of there in 6, as usual, scared fighter, can’t take a punch, lacks wold class skills and scared of committing. In the rematch he will try and have him out of there in 6, no other options, if he has not he’s ****ed
Fury just needs to train right and be properly focused. Again, no messing about, get Whyte out in the early rounds and I think he will unless he wants some sparring practice lol, that could be dangerous. Unification fight this year please. A British fighter that unifies the heavyweight belts is the dream
|
|
|
|
Im probably going against the grain here
but betting the Fury vs Whyte Potentially could possibly be Furys hardest fight and he could even lose !
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2175
Does indeed have very good movement. Don’t get me wrong I’d be rooting for Usyk and I’d be delighted if he pulls it off as I really like the guy.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2174
Usyk has very good movement and jab,I can't see him knocking Fury out but he could out box him and take it on a decision
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2173
As much as I rate Usyk and predicted he’d be a world champion I just see Fury toying with him and taking him out whenever he pretty much chooses.
|

Fury vs Usyk would be a very interesting fight,there is no way AJ is beating Usyk in the rematch.

In reply to Post #2168
He took some proper hard shots straight on the button and was rocked several times. His timing was exceptionally poor. Brook was superb, timed him beautifully and landed the power shots, think he took Khans jab away, scared of throwing it for me because of the counter
Here’s a fight, why don’t Eubank jnr and young Benn get it on, getting pathetic these two for me, both want to fight Brook, yeah, so they can get a big name on the CV if they are lucky when the man is clearly past his prime.
Eubank is just a complete tit, just seems completely oblivious to the **** that comes out of his mouth
Benn needs to fight some class opponents and prove himself now
Josh Kelly next week, could be a decent fight that but I expect him to come through it.
Crawford and Spence has to happen
The winner faces Josh Kelly would be the dream

That could be the reason. However I didn’t think they were particularly heavy or lots of them either.
I’ll see it back another time.

Khan was throwing nothing back and getting hit with heavy shots
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2164
In his head he probably thought he was in the best shape but you get found out if you are not ,
The ref was right to stop that fight he was taking far too many heavy shots and credit to him he stayed on his feet.
Don,t like khan never have since the day he came into golden gloves boxing gym in liverpool to spar with some young lads , no respect and hurt one lad badly. His reg plate is good though AK 47
He walked past us after the fight he was badly marked up .The great thing about last night was natasha destroying her oppponent and the doorman from blackpool enjoying a good wage fighting an olympian
Roll on next week Josh taylor in glasgow.
|
|
|
|
|
I watched the fight and it looked a poor judgement from the referee to stop it. I’ve not read any complaints about the stoppage so I guess it must have being the correct call. Any replays didn’t really give any clues either, not from what I’ve seen.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2163
Khan does my head in,talks utter ****.Im 35 in best shape of my life better than when I was 25.After six rounds of getting demolished by a far better fighter,my hearts not in it and the passion has gone blah blah blah **** off back to Bolton you little twerp

In reply to Post #2161
GGG would still destroy jnr now,he is another over hyped idiot I can't stand.Brook has nothing to prove to anyone and should go and enjoy his life.Khans team tried everything to distract Brook,changing the gloves,knocking on his hotel room door early hours of the morning,thats not sportsmanship.Khan is done and needs to retire,nobody wants to see him anymore,he should do what he does best and quit
|
|
|
|
Nice to see the respect at the end between the two, and respect to Khan for his honest words
On another note, Eubank jnr, what a complete and utter ****, want to fight Brook, I’m not Khan, I wanted to fight GGG, ****ing tool, an embarrassment to the sport

Round 6 Amir Khan
|
|
|
|
Has the potential to be a cracking fight, both well passed their best though which is a real shame.
Massive Brook fan myself over the years and I hope he knocks Khan spark out
Khan has the speed, which is nothing without timing and Brook has the power. For some strange reason I think Khan may have a chance, especially if Brook goes rushing in. Needs to box him
Cmon Kell Brook, looked in great shape at the weigh in
Totally agree Gerry, Khan dodged Brook all his career. That fight could have been made many times
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2151
to be honest I always preferred Marcos Maidana over either of them
and I do think Khan dodged Brook all these years and I really hope Brook sparks him

I hope Williams finishes the tit off
Could be a tricky fight, Williams is an aggressive fight who will walk people down, not ideal, counterpunching is the way to defeat Eubank, just like the George Groves masterclass, blueprints out there
As for Fury vs. Whyte, an unesseary fight for me but a warm up for his unification of the belts I hope

Well the Parker fight is on the tube, just watched it. One word, frustrating!
I just can’t help but think Parker works at two gears lower than he could ffs. Great hand speed and decent movement, Chisora was made for the left uppercut and he hardly threw it. Just thought he could have had him out of there is 6 if he had put it on him.
Chisora, respect, what a warrior, I would take a jab to land two body shots like he did in the first half of the fight, he was gassed by 7 though
Parker, ffs, same when I watched him against Whyte, thought he could have won that easily, great combinations then backs off. Would,like to see him fight Whyte again, bet he fancies a crack at Usyk 
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2113
You'd hope so Gerry but I bet he doesn't. He's still competitive enough and isn't just getting blown away so I'm guessing he will fight on for a couple of fights yet
|

I has hoped Derek would have retired after his last fight with Parker but he has had another big pay day and a brutal war but surely its now time to call it a day ?

Least they got the score cards right for that one
Flat on his feet Broner, looks the part but without work rate and devastating power you expect from the style. Maidana, street brawler, deffo want him on your side, some solid punches landed, loved the right hand to the body in the 8th before he dropped him with the left. After the holding on and the head butt fiasco, could have had Broner out of there for me. Good fight though, mans game

|

In reply to Post #2097
Great fighter Maidana. Similar to Manny Pac, he was going to to do this and that and the little fella boxed Broners ears off
Respect to young Benn though, he hasn’t done the Eubank jnr. thing and just seems to have learned his craft over a period of time. If Broner is next, onwards and upward after that. Will he be world champ at 147, I hope so but their is some serious, serious talent around here!
Crawford vs. Spence has got to happen soon

Wilder is done Chris. Mark my words he won't be the same again if he continues to fight at all. Usyk beats him too. Way too smart for windmill. He's got power and heart. And absolutely nothing else.

|
|
|
In reply to Post #2077
I will maintain what I have said before. Fury is number 1 and Wilder is number 2 and below this there is quite a gap
I wish it would happen, my money would be on Wilder putting Whyte out in 2 and that's if he staggered through the first! slow hand speed, **** all movement and so easy to hit, target practice

What about the 2 years before Whyte lost to povetkin in which time he was still number one contender? The 2 years he basically fought bums plus Ortiz? He was swerving ,100%
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2075
I dont think Wilder was worried by Whyte,especially after watching Povetkin knock Whyte out.Whyte is a tough fighter and anything can happen in heavyweight boxing,I just think Fury will make him look silly.If Wilder can't KO Fury I can't see how Whyte can,it is going have to be the punch of his life.He definitely deserves his chance though
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2074
How much do you honestly think he made from fighting brezeale for instance? Less than he'd have got for Whyte, the number one contender at the time when you factor in the ppv I'm sure. He didn't want it ,it's plain to see
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2073
I’m guessing Wilder gets a far bigger audience and payout by fighting another American, or Ortiz who massively outboxed him before the bomb landed, and not an English journey man (no disrespect but I hope you can see: my point)?
As for the heavyweight division, all I want to see is a British fighter, Fury, unify the belts, **** the yanks!
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2072
Who knows? But he clearly did. 3 years as number one contender, could have given one trick wilder a far bigger payday than the vast majority of the fights he took during that time, constantly being called out but making excuses not to right. My best guess is he knows he struggles against men who come at him rather than sit back to try and counter. Whyte deserved his shot then ,and thankfully he gets it now. Not that I think he wins , but he deserves to try. Fwiw I honestly think he'd beat wilder if he started fast enough to catch wilder before getting tagged himself, which isn't out of the question given the fury fights. He really isnt very good on the back foot at all
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #2068
I don't care what you say but wilder avoided him
Why would Wilder avoid Whyte, probably one of the current heavyweights who people can land a glove on!
Fury has bet him once, what is the point?

In reply to Post #2067
Whyte has been waiting for over 3 years for his title shot. I don't care what you say but wilder avoided him. It's the right fight, anything other than that of the unification would make a mockery of the rankings
|
|
|
|
See they have told Fury he has to defend his belt against Whyte
What a shower of ****. That bum Joshua should have been called out numerous times ffs
Two fights for Fury for me, Usyk to unify the belts, Joshua and out, that’s it. It’s a shame they are not so consistent with other title holders ffs

Could be an old school tactic that, put your head onto a fist before the hand is fully clenched, breaks the hand
Watch Eubank, used to take a lot to the forehead, no drama or real damage

Looking like Nathan will be fighting at the bet365 stadium sometime next year as that’s the plan after meeting with Frank Warren earlier.
Hopefully it could well be for the British title.

FIGHT HIGHLIGHTS | Teófimo López vs. George Kambosos Jr. LINKY POO
|
|
|
|
Shock result in the states last night. Lopez got a proper beating
Kambosos massive underdog and he got the win, deserved it too
From beating Lomo and looking invincible to looking pretty ordinary. Wonder if Lomo fancy’s another, or his belts back lol

this was a great 13mins watch !!

Yeah porter gave it a good go , crawford just class does,nt waste any energy and to be fair porter caught him more than any of his previous opponents , it was a good contest.

In reply to Post #2037
Massive Canelo fan myself but Terrance Crawford has got to be up there as a pound for pound king, looked absolutely superb, great movement and super sharp, can’t see anybody beating him for quite a while
Good effort though from Shawn Porter
|
|
|
|
|
There is a show on boxing tv on Facebook now for those that may be interested in watching.
|
|
|
|
|
Outcome was how i expected crawford just does,nt get hurt.
|

I can’t see that interview with porter so don’t know what’s gone on there.
Sorry mate as it’s almost too late now to put it on.

Crawford vs. Porter tonight, has the potential to be a good fight while it lasts

Same here, can’t see Porter giving him too much trouble. Wonder how long the Spence fight will take to happen!
Canelo vs. Benavidez is the one everybody seems to be talking about. Let’s face it with the cruiser weight talk, he beat Kovalev who could beat most cruisers and that’s some benchmark for me!
Probably seen it and thought, I could take that

No doubt about it that cut was caused by a fantastic punch from Denny which in my opinion after sliding down Denny’s shoulder open it up even further.
The way Denny celebrated he full well knew that was a punch which ended it.
Absolutely devastated is Denny and rightly so. Stepped up a level and Bent was found wanting.

Nathan being putting in the hard graft ‘as per usual’ and sparring with the best that Britain has to offer including those above his weight.
Not looking forward to it ‘never do, bag of nerves’ but hope that he gets a victory along with an impressive performance against a good lad in Janjanin as that would help set him up nicely in his quest of pushing on further in his career.
Good luck Nathan and above all else hope all stay safe and go home safely.
Edit - No doubt about it the lad Janjanin can bang in which Nathan will have to be switched on. All being well Nathan will use those great jabs and body shots of his and set up the finish.
Good luck to all and stay safe.

He gets found out at world level, saying that boxing has been good to him he is a wealthy lad .

Nathan is indeed set to face Janinjn for the IBO Intercontinental middleweight title on 6th November. Unless of course the lad pulls out of the fight as this happened when he was due to fight River Wilson Bent a few weeks ago.
Step up in class and no doubt going to be a tough fight but one in which Nathan will hopefully come out on top.
Above all else on the night and every night of boxing that all come home safely.
Edit - Looking forward also in watching Lennox Clarke.....

19 stone of quality
Quality
Love those short upper cuts inside
|
|
|
|
its funny
I was thinking way back when Fury first hit the limelight and I thought wow this guy has a natural boxing brain and talent
but because he was trying to do what Cassius Clay did when he wanted to be famous and being gobby sooo many people were slagging him off then
well have they got egg on their faces now or what !!
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1947
Smith is a quality operator and an highly experienced fighter, outclassed Fowler who is not the boxer he though he was going to be, Fitzgerald saw to that. Fowlers style reminds me a bit of Josh Kellys with the low hands, another future superstar or so he thought. Two cracking knockdowns from Smith though
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1947
yes great nights boxing I Liked
Ted Cheeseman vs. Troy Williamson, for Cheeseman’s British junior middleweight title that was a corker !!!!
Shannon Courtenay vs. Jamie Mitchell, WBA World bantamweight title match Mitchell took it
|
|
|
|
|
Enjoyed the Smith vs Fowler fight too,I thought Fowler would just keep him on the end of that jab.
|
|
|
|
What a great fight edge of the seat stuff 5 knockdowns !!
Fury got off to a slow start while Wilder attacked the body trying to force Fury back but it was short lived and after the firsts 2 or 3 rounds he seemed like he had forgotten the body and was just looking for a KO as he hardly threw any body shots the rest of the fight ??
I was impressed with Wilders courage that would have bought him new fans had he not screwed it all up with his pathetic unsportsmanlike actions at the end of the fight what a tosser ?
but it was a great night of boxing and the right man won
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1943
Wilder would destroy AJ,he's done for me.AJ has lost something since the first Ruiz fight,he looks scared and got no heart and is afraid to let his hands go as he is too worried about getting hit.Fury has proven time and time again muscle and physic do not win fights,I hope he goes and gets all the belts now
|

In reply to Post #1942
Well said Braders, Wilder is a disgrace, out of order that, know when you are beat, acknowledge the better man and eat humble pie, respect, Wilder has none, disillusioned
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1941
Credit to Wilder, takes two men to make a fight, he was burnt out and battered again though. Not shaking hands or acknowledging the better man at the end is a major no for me though, the respect
Looking at Fury, as you say, two full on right hands in one round, and that’s with Wilders extra weight. Wilder did well to slip and block Fury’s right until it was curtains in the 11th though. Wilder cannot fight at pace, Fury proved that in the second fight, ain’t got the stamina.
First fight, Fury fought him on the back foot and won
Second fight Fury fought him on the front foot
Third fight, combination of both, what a performance against one of the biggest bangers of all time
Fights on, AJ vs. Wilder, my money is on Wilder to win in two
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1941
Fury is the best heavyweight in the world easily,Wilder proved what he is about at the end refusing to shake hands.He should take the loss like a man and show some respect,I just hope that's the Fury vs Wilder situation done.
|
|
|
|
That was arguably the best heavyweight fight I have ever seen, truly spectacular. Credit to wilder for showing enormous courage and heart, even though I don't like the man and his unsportsmanlike attitude at the end.
If that mug AJ has any sense he'll continue to avoid Fury like the plague. Fury took 2 of Wilders best right hands, IN ONE ROUND, and still got up to stop him. AJ has nothing to concern Fury.

In reply to Post #1926
Just watched the weigh in
Wilder up in weight. More power and strength = less stamina and he had **** all before!
If it’s similar to then first fight, Fury wins in 4 rounds for me. More defensive, Fury wins in 8
Massive fight for both me, Fury has everything, Wilder has one punch. Heavyweight boxing, anything can happen
Prediction, Wilder try’s to jab more (cannot move for 12 rounds) and line Fury up for the big one. Fury works him over with his own jab, Wilder goes back to type, Fury overpowers him and puts him out

Have to agree about his weight he has,nt got a knockout punch so he will have to get up close and stifle wilder bully him so he cant land a bomb , 19 stone pushing on you drains you. I like fury he is very very talented but a heavyweight that can bang i wouldn't like to bet against.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1926
I would usually say Fury on points or late stoppage, as before. However i have to admit to finding his weight weird. He says weight doesn't matter, but i cant see him being light on his toes weighing 19st.
Coming in with the idea to bang with Wilder could be a colossal mistake. Hard to call for me now, seeing Fury's weight.

He’ll be fighting for the IBO Intercontinental middleweight title at the Utilita arena Birmingham on November 6th live on BT sports and in which represents a step up in class.
Living the dream. All the best and above all else stay safe.

Depends which frame of mind Fury brings to the ring. He’s going have to be on it because I sense Wilder is right up for it. Having said that, can’t call it.
|
|
|
|
well the one we have all been waiting for Tyson Fury v Deontay Wilder III is not long now
So any betting folk on here having a flutter ?
we all know the fact Wilder has the power to cause an upset but Fury has the boxing brain and ability to give him a boxing lesson provided he can avoid the big bomb
its a make or break fight for Wilder either way he gets a massive payday if he does manage to knock out fury its the only possible way he could win IMO he gets a career otherwise think he has had it
the boxer that saddens me is Andy Ruiz if only he would train properly with the right trainer he could really go places but reading up on him apparently he has never really taken training seriously yet he is a talented boxer tough as nails

Finally got round to watching it last night. Buzzed in the third round big time. Brilliant performance by Usyk, boxed his ears off, movement was superb as was his game plan, electric in the 11th and 12th. Interesting listening to the post match commentary, he didn’t go for the knockout and followed his trainers advice, if he had stepped it up more in the 11rh he would have got it. 12th round, Joshua gone. Joshua, one trick pony who was out of his depth and exposed once again
Canelo vs. Plant could be interesting, Plant is a classy boxer, still expect Canelo to walk through him, anybody see the face off, Canelo pushed him, Plant came back, tried to jab him, Canelo slips it and hits him with a quick one two, only one way this is going lol
Fury, very dangerous fight, very dangerous, we know he can do it, I expect him to
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1913
Well Usyk used his skills and got in the zones to throw his shots and rarely looked troubled.He rocked Joshua a few times,the rematch will only go the same way.Im looking forward to the Canelo fight and the Fury 3rd and hopefully final fight against Wilder
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1909
Joshua is / was never the boxer Hearn hyped him up to be, too many flaws in his game, big powerful lad who can bang, rocked far too many times, I could see the defeats coming a mile off for me, , you have got it or you have not, don't get me wrong he is at world level but he is never the superstar Hearn or his fans wanted him to be, that's a fact.
That's why it's called boxing and not banging, skills game

In reply to Post #1907
yep good shout
I reckon that loss to Ruiz has affected him he is gun shy scared to let his hands go and his corner were a joke shouting cobblers to him he will lose the rematch unless he changes his trainer
changing the subject I HOPE there isnt a rematch clause for wilder
and the Fury Wilder 3 is the final between them 2

Only question Okolie has to answer is will he move up, as he genuinely looks bored at the lack of competition.

I will live in hope that Usyk will cause an upset but seeing him against chisora I think he's out of his depth in the heavyweight division.
Joshua wins by ko in 8.

Mate of mine Dan Hewitt will be live tonight on Facebook with his boxing tv show from 7pm.
He will be joined by Joe Cortez ‘former hall of fame referee’ and Usyk’s former trainer Bashir where they’ll be breaking the fight down.
Looking forward to this one.
Happy viewing chaps, if interested.

USYK is a fantastic boxes, Joshua is not. I expect a bit of a bore as Joshua trys to keep him on the jab all night
I hope Usyk is slick and quick and makes a match of it, Joshua has the power, Usyk has everything else for me. If Joshua loses this that will be another massive embarrassment!

Joshua looks fitter than i have ever seen him , very lean and must be lighter than hes been for years .Hope usyk can do it.

SAT Night at a decent time Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksandr Usyk,

Evander Holyfield took home a whopping $500000 as salary for his fight
so we will agree to disagree as I say it was the $500000 reasons

In reply to Post #1876
Holyfield does not need a big pay check. He is however a man with a passion for boxing and that has lead to the sad demise of a once truly great fighter, should never, ever, have been allowed to happen

In reply to Post #1878
But he will put him in with decent opposition. The overall aim is for Nathan to get to challenge for the British title. I’ve heard it before that Nathan is 32 and needs to be in these fights and I was previously of the same thought but then when looking at it he isn’t a war damaged 32 and has always ‘literally always’ looked after himself and body and who is finally now growing into that body thus giving extra power into those shots.
You stated previously that Warren had being informed as to how Bent was looking in training ‘which I called out as absolute 30110CK5’ and that it’d be a risk for Nathan to take him on at this stage of his career. Did you not realise that your choice word of ‘apparently’ did you no favours as that choice of word offered no substance?.
The first hand information I have as to what actually happened in sparring when they sparred is a trillion miles away from associating that with what Frank was apparently told regards Bent in training, and for a journey man to take him the distance really doesn’t imply credence to what you had ‘apparently’ heard and then wrote. In addition please spare me your telling me as in post 1847 of yours that I’ve got it totally wrong. Oh, and as for the record too there has being no argument with Warren either. It really does makes one wonder which angle some mags come from at times.
Same as I’ve said before I’m not so loyal to him as to think he’s invincible and if he turns out to fall short then so be it but it won’t be through a lack of trying and those supporting him are giving him an opportunity to become the best he can and to live the dream.
As for the record though I believe Nathan takes Bent out in 8 that is if River Wilson can take those body shots.

In reply to Post #1877
Not at all , it was a half decent fight although he won every round first time river aint knocked his opponent out for a while, not knocking Nathan at all just warren .will never know how good nathan is if warren wont put him in with decent opposition .I would have rather seen Nathan challenge for the title to be honest as at 32 he needs to be in these fights.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1847
I note that River Wilson got a points win over the journey man Gabor Gorbics and not Jajjanjn who took world class Martin Murray eight rounds on a bumper bill ‘the same bill Heaney pulled out of.
Can’t think why you’re not shouting from the rooftops over this one as you can’t wait to take great delight in knocking Nathan at any opportunity.
Tyler Denny v River Wilson be a good un though for the English title.

I know myself that he’ll try scrape every penny from him that he can. I also know tonight’s fight is a backward step for Nathan. As for River Wilson Bent at this moment in time he needs Nathan more.
Nothing to do with loyalty to my mate and yet now you’re saying facts as stated.
Absolute fantasy land where someone APPARENTLY told Warren how good Bent was in training. He’s sparred with River Wilson but I’ll just leave it there as to how that went. All I’ll say is that what you say as apparently ‘apparently- what on earth does that even mean?’ being relayed back to Frank is absolute 30110k5.
As for loyalty towards Nathan I’ve said previously if he turns out not to be good enough then it won’t be through a lack of trying and he’d have lived the dream. Anyone would think my loyalty makes him out to be this or that.
Edit - Notice that you say Warren pulled Nathan out and yet previously you said Nathan and Warren pulled out. Why you made Nathan out to be running scared I don’t know.

In reply to Post #1849
I understand your loyalty to your mate but the facts as stated in boxing news mag and various other sources are that frank warren cancelled the fight and that heaney had a massive row with him over it as its a fight he wanted ! As i said previously warren will get every penny out of him before throwing him on the scrap heap , the choice of opponent tonight is a step backward in his career not forward as is the case with river wilson bent whom if he wins though im not convinced he will will then be on the world stage.
Nathan is a talented lad but does now need to step up as you say he was fighting much better opponents in his first few fights.
The fight did,nt happen because warren would,nt sign the contract .

Your choice of word that APPARANTLY Warren was told Bent was far superior fighter for Heaney is duly noted.
You couldn’t be more further from the truth if you tried. As for watching Bent in training and how superior he is couldn’t be more further from the truth as to what I actually know.
Edit - I’m fully aware that Warren is handpicking Nathan’s opponents,’every promoter going would also take advantage of this and Warren is no different’. However this shouldn’t ever be perceived as Nathan not being above this kind of level.
Edit - Having read your post again you say that you told me that fight wouldn’t happen.....Why, was it going to happen then and Nathan pulled out?.
Think you could do with a new supplier of information.

In reply to Post #1844
You have got that totally wrong it was nathan and frank warren that pulled out of the fight with river wilson bent , after watching bent in training apparently warren was told bent was a far to superior fighter for heaney to take on as a loss at his age would end his career. Warren hand picked this opponent who has 48 losses and 2 draws out of 60 bouts ! to earn a few quid before that happens .If you look at my post 1825 (aug 6) i told you he would,nt take that fight
Bent is now fighting the bosnian janjanjn 37 pro fights (29 wins) who took world class martin murray eight rounds on a bumper bill on sept 10th the same bill heaney pulled out of (sam eggington bill )

Konstantin Alexandrov Nathan be fighting tomorrow night.
Whilst one can’t exactly be enthralled with his opponent I’m aware of what the direction he’s going to go in which in turn will return a good ranking due to him going to be stepping up the class thereafter in which the aim is to go for the English title. I suppose it’s Frank being Frank setting up so called easier opponents to keep the followers following but surely I’d hope this is the last before seeing an upgrade in quality. Nathan was due to fight ‘name escapes me from when he told me’ who is 10 unbeaten since turning pro so that would have being a decent enough test but sadly the lad had pulled out.
1600 be cheering Nathan on tomorrow and I hope he does it. Above all else I hope all boxers return home safely.
Good luck all.

He is indeed decent. Nathan has fought tougher opponents prior to being signed up by Frank Warren and thankfully came through them. Hopefully he’ll keep up that record should he face River Wilson which I’m expecting it to go ahead.

Would be a cracker.

He returned some 20 minutes later to give my mate a slapping but little did he realise that he’s as strong as an ox and a professional cage fighter. The bad news is that the lad lost his teeth but the good news is that he got them back after handing them back to him having being embedded in his knee. Poor lad mustn’t have being thinking straight.

Barrios had a massive reach advantage so it was always going to be an awkward fight for me.
Taylor vs. Prograis was a great fight and both are top quality fighters. Without a doubt though, Davis has dynamite in that left hand and he is a great counter puncher. Sad as it is I think he beats the fore mentioned but I would love to see Taylor smash him for the UK

Yes indeed got to step up the quality from now on. Even the previous that he’s fought before signing with Frank Warren are stronger than his last two fights. Not surprised to see the body shot ending it as that amongst a decent jab his is strength. Never got to see him afterwards but no doubt catch up with him soon and get his thoughts.

Frank warren is well known as a promotor who exploits his fighters as they all do unfortunately . Why do you think terry marsh shot him ! As i have said before and this is no disrespect to Nathan heaney as everyone that steps into the ring takes their life into their hands , he is a decent level fighter but is not going to set the world on fire , frank warren knows that so will get every penny out of him he can .But Nathan will know this he has been around the fight game all his life, At his age it will pass him by very quickly so hopefully he will get the win and carry on his dream.

In reply to Post #1770
Nathan would take a fight no matter who it is....He so does want to progress further but I guess Frank is picking the so called easier targets in order to bring in revenue and for that Nathan shouldn’t be thought of as a sign of him not wanting to progress.
|
|
|
|
Well aware that Nathan was signed up because he sells tickets therefore bringing in revenue. He’s got an opportunity to live the dream and if that dream falls short then so be it but for now we’re enjoying the journey. Certainly trains hard and if that alone isn’t enough then at least he got an opportunity to do what he thoroughly enjoys.....
Making a day of it in Telford then onto the boxing.....Good luck Nathan and hopefully he’ll put on a boxing performance which he does have in his locker....Either way just hope all boxers stay safe and return home healthy.....

YES 50 fights never been stopped I thought he was going to lose his record and be stopped was shocked he got up he was wobbled but what a typical Mexican !!
I did think at one stage maybe Molina would come on strong in the last couple of rounds if Egerton tired and draw him into a slugfest Molina did catch him with a big right in the final round but Egerton took it and kept away
good match I enjoyed it

Molina been around a long time , I remember him fighting julio cesar chavez jr and that was yonks ago he definately won that but it was given a draw , god knows how old he is ? He was as tough as they come but this must be one of his last fights so if eggington does,nt beat him he really has nowhere to go.

In reply to Post #1753
Fury has a following due to his gypsy roots but more notably due to his "celebrity "status . I have a relationship with liverpool, manchester , northern gyms etc and if a fighter from the gym was on a bill for a start all the lads in the gym would want tickets then obviously the fighters family and mates would want them, in the case of ricky hatton he would of sold out any arena but if there were only 1000 tickets then he obviously would only get a small percentage so it does,nt really matter how much a following they have . The only thing i can say is that no other fighter on this card must want tickets which i find strange.
I do know Nathan heaney has a large following as stoke is not that far away from the clubs i know and i still have lots of contacts in the clubs who keep me updated .
|

|

In reply to Post #1752
I knew that you weren’t having a go and never crossed my mind...
Definitely have being sold and could have sold them 3-4 times over....
Never really knew joe that well but Nathan speaks highly of him and on the odd occasion when I did too then I could see why. Tragic what happened to him and just before his son had fought Tom Stokes for the midlands title too. Nathan is a great down to earth humble lad and follows Stoke City which has no doubt helped swell his supporters. Hardcore supporters I’d say there are around 100 ‘could possibly be more’ and touch wood we never get to find out.
Out of interest and I genuinely don’t know but how many supporters does Dubois and Fury have?. I wouldn’t say a great deal considering Nathan’s allocation was over 50%....Probably wrong, as I often am...
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1751
Im not having a go at you , I just find it hard to believe the allocation of tickets , if he says he sold that amount of tickets then he sold them , as i have said before i crossed paths with his dad joe many times when i boxed as an amateur and he was a decent bloke, i have no doubt his son is the same.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1750
May well be that he isn’t good enough to which I’ve never claimed he is. Thought I’d post on here about him as he’s a mate of mine and if he isn’t good enough then so be it, not the end of the world but the following he has is helping him live the dream.
As for not believing he was allocated what he has ‘never mind sold them all which will be noticeable on tv’ I find that even more surprising.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1749
I cant believe that with a crowd of only 1000 he would be allocated that amount when dubois is the headline bout followed by tommy fury ? I have been in and around the game long enough to know he is,nt good enough to test eubank jr and at his age he wont improve much but i wish him well
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1748
What’s the issue regards selling tickets?. I only know what Nathan sold which was all of what he was allocated. Regards Eubank it may or may not be beyond him but we’ll see.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1747
So dubois sold none ? Im not surprised he sold that amount at the kings hall its his local, Fury has a big following that i know of ? Wow you are being extremely ambitious saying bring on eubank jr ! I think you are getting a bit too carried away regarding that one.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1746
Got a large following. He sold 800 out of a 1000 at the kings hall.
Sold 530 tickets and hundreds were asking to go on a list in case he was given anymore.
Tommy Fury got an higher profile but never going sell as many as Nathan so I’d fail to see the logic in giving that amount to Tommy.
Edit - He’s on Facebook under Nathan Hitman Heaney....All there how many sold and how many asked to go on any list. There’s more on the list for tickets than Tommy was given.
I guess if you’re a ticket seller you’ll be given them providing of course the main attractions have had what they feel they could sell.
Ps....If available would have sold 2000. Bring on Eubank Jr at the bet365 stadium....
On the night........DO NOT ADJUST YOUR TV SET.......as it’s gonna be loud n off the scale.....Delilah.
Hope that he comes out on top obviously, but as always above all else hope all boxers remain safe and healthy.

How did he get 530 tickets if only 1000 capacity ? Tommy fury fighting on that card he much higher profile and he only got 75 tickets.

Us too mate, us too as he’s certainly capable of it. Needs to stick to that fantastic jab of his and box. Likes to mix it up but best behind that jab.

I SAW this he is on the Daniel Dubois vs Bogdan Dinu undercard should be a good watch hope he does better than his last fight

Nathan’s allocation of 530 tickets sold within an hour ‘edit - sorry meant day’. Few hundred more requesting tickets in which Nathan hoping he’ll be given to sell them too.
Going to be a mental evening providing Covid doesn’t shut stuff down again.

In reply to Post #1734
The only way I can describe him mate is cheap
BJS bet him and he is obviously bitter which is a real shame because one thing about boxing or any type of fighting for me, you always shake hands after, respect the opponent and the better man
Eubank Jr. is not the fighter HE thinks he is
Read back in this thread, I knew Groves would beat him hands down, he is a boxer, Eubank is a punch bag king, they don’t hit back. They can put him with Roy Jones or whoever, he is not world class, simple. All he is doing now is looking round for a quick and easy world title shot
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1725
I certainly see where he is coming from along with all others before him when coming to sounding out a big pay day. To do what he has done shows a total disregard for a fellow human being and above all else the profession. The way BJS gave Dubois grief after he quit in a similar way ‘eye damage’ then I’ve no sympathy for him but obviously want to see him making a full recovery with no lasting eye sight issues.
Edit - If you believe that laughing and posting a video on social media about someone getting what he did without so much of a thought as to how their immediate health is is an attempt at promoting a big pay day them I’m pleased I ain’t seeing the woods for the trees.

That should be fun
Saw a super middleweight special chaired by Johnny Nelson a while ago, think it was Jones, Calzaghe, Eubank, Collins and possibly Benn around the table, some talent there!
Been watching the highlights a few times. The power of the shots are unreal, energy conservation for me and ripping powerful shots. Never seen him throw the uppercut so much either, would love a chat with him, I would put money on that was the shot he had trained for the southpaw style!
Brutal

Sustained a quadripod fracture of the eye socket and underwent surgery earlier.....
All the best and hopefully the operation has gone well.

Well it was,nt fight of the year but solid performance from canello, saunders just could,nt hurt him and dropped his hands too much , canello just a superior boxer , broken eye socket that bloody hurts .That got my treble up , kt,parker,canello.

In reply to Post #1713
Similar to me. His career best was against Lemuix for me, great performance that
He is a typical gypsy, he has the lip and a cocky persona, so I take it with a pinch of salt
Said it below. BJS has the style to make this an awkward fight for Canelo and string it out a bit, I expect him to look good over the first 3 or 4 maybe 5 rounds! The question is, can he dance for the whole 12 lol
Ultimately Canelo is a different class and tonight it’s him and Saunders in the ring and this will shine through. Canelo cuts the ring off with body shots and takes him out in the late rounds for me. I believe he also has the skills and punching power to just walk him straight down and take him out for me if he wants to
Either way it has the potential to be a great fight for the fans
Up at 3.30, load the car up, watch the fight and then fishing for me

In reply to Post #1712
Should be a good un hopefully canello will show his class , dont, like saunders ,however the bloke can box and has never been beat eubank jr should have pushed him more than he did in the first half of their fight.Having never been beaten must give you great belief and he certainly believes he can do it.

Am hoping parker wins , chisora has had some beatings and am hoping this is his last fight.parker never sets the ring on fire but he is a talented fighter, but its heavyweights one punch ends it,looking forward to taylor fight as i know a few lads from liverpool who have had massive amounts of money on jonas to cause an upset.

Just watched the end and of Bivel and Richards. Sounds like Bivel won the earlier rounds. Great effort from Richards
I thought Bivel was a bit of a superstar in the making, not on that performance, doesn’t like the body shots either!
The plus side, Eubank Jnr. next, I’m hoping and praying he gets sparked out

I like BJS though and it would be nice for a Brit to beat him, needs the performance of his life and some. Got the pay day he was looking for and out I guess
One thing for sure, should be a decent fight and he will be up for it, and give it his all

I think it will be quite competitive for the first half of the right, but can see canelo catching bjs at some point In the second half of the fight for the stoppage. Hope I'm wrong though.

and the one I want to see CANELO vs SAUNDERS on MAY 8TH
Same here, could be an interesting one that, great boxer BJS when he is on form and I expect a decent match up there. Think Canelo is a different class myself and has the ability to just close him down overpower him though
If BJS is to stand a chance he has to be quick on the feet, lighting jab have exceptional movement throughout the fight, like the Lemieux, fight plus 5! lol

Two weight world champion who,s had some hard fights, very experienced, was definately interested but at the weight knew from round one that he was going to be up against it , just too small against a fighter with a great jab.He gave it a go to become a three weight world champion.Total respect from me hope he has a happy retirement.

Watched Lennox Clarke at the Birmingham arena when on the same card as Nathan when losing on points to Lerone Richards. However last evening took the British and commonwealth super middleweight titles with a stoppage. Strangely enough I got talking to a lad ‘remained friends since’ whose mates with Lennox and so pleased to see his mate win. What a tough, tough lad Lennox is. Well done, chuffed for the lad.

I know Povetkin is knocking on a touch but didn’t he have covid in January as that could explain ‘other than age’ a lacklustre performance. Still, no doubt a nice payday.

In reply to Post #1674
Poor from povetkin , he looked wrong from the moment he entered the ring , like he,d been out all night , strange, was hoping shea s lad would win, that was probably his last fight, young hatton wont be climbing too far up the ladder , and as for that other heavyweight farce the least said the better.
|
|
|

Well, Whyte got the win. When he started throwing those big overhand looping rights it thought, oh no, bit reckless that. Corner put him straight and the punch that did the damage was a short straight right! Proves he has the power. Think he will have learned a lot from that myself?
As for his next opponent, Calling Wilder out
That is an extremely dangerous fight for me. Can’t see him getting much from that if it happens other than KOd and a decent payout $
Better off looking for an easy fight and then hope that he gets a crack at the winner of Tyson vs. Joshua. I would like to see him fight Joshua again, rocked him last time and gave him a lot of trouble

In reply to Post #1672
Agree there mate. Wardley, not convinced at all. Those low hands and aggressive style are not a good sign for me. Easy to hit. I like his shape but he has to get a stone off if he is serious and I question how he would fit in against a true heavyweight who can box
Cheeseman is a great watch, athlete who wears his heart on his sleeve, up for a war every time I have seen him. Warrior

Agreed. Cheeseman vs Metcalf was 10/10 and I can't see Whyte vs Povetkin being better than that.
The less said about Wardley vs Molina the better.

Very dangerous fight, no lapses this time, has to take Povetkin out, rocked him a few times in their previous fight, has to be all over him when he hurts him again and make it count, get it wrong and he will be KOd again, no doubt

In reply to Post #1666
Hope you ok Gerry.
Povetkin does him again for me.For whyte to win he needs to get on him from the bell and hurt him .In the back of his mind whyte knows this bloke can take him out and i think he will again.

WELL ?
Can Wyate forget Povey"s Peach of a punch and get the win he desperately needs??

There’s around a hardcore 100 fans that would follow Nathan all over but how many would lose the attraction should he lose his unbeaten record probably doesn’t bare thinking about.
I don’t think the fan base will drop mate, the opposite, people follow them beciase they like what they are about. The Hattons for example always used to bring a good following and it always ended in a riot
He is fighting for your town so he represents your area, puts you on the map
|

|

Just spoke to my other mate Dan Hewitt who owns boxing tv and is great mate of Nathan too. Says it’s something he’ll be talking to Nathan about regards dropping his hands as it’s something that he never did even in his amateur days. Just don’t understand it myself as he’s much much better working behind that great jab of his. Dan also says it seems that he just isn’t finding away off finishing off his opponents and when I asked if he’s concerned that he may get tagged his response was ‘it’s not that but seems wary not to want to tire himself out’. Hopefully a few harsh words from a great mate could be a wake up call he needs to stick to his strengths.
Never enjoy watching Nathan as he’s such a great mate and makes me ill just watching.
|
|
|
|
|
Hes a decent boxer , he has a lot of faults and at his age he aint gonna get alot better but good luck to him, when you look at just the british boxers at his weight he will struggle .
|
|
|
|
|
Still think his defence needs work he could of very easily been knocked out the way he kept dropping his hands but its a win
|
|
|
|
I guess another thing that brings added pressure is that I’d assume Frank Warren signed Nathan up on the strength of a thousand or so tickets that he can sell at £50 a pop cheapest and to not now have fans allowed into venues then it’s an extra pressure to remain unbeaten ready for when they can return.
There’s around a hardcore 100 fans that would follow Nathan all over but how many would lose the attraction should he lose his unbeaten record probably doesn’t bare thinking about.
Anyway - Thankfully all as of yet go home safe and sound.

In reply to Post #1644
As below post suggests I agree. As for punch power he never really got to throw the right ‘I do agree however that it’s got to be more powerful and needs to plant his feet more’. Thought that the bell saved Oliver after going down from that left to which he felt.
|
|
|

In reply to Post #1645
Totally agree about fans , The atmosphere a crowd gives is something you cant explain unless you have been in that enviroment , be it any sport, even if they are not your fans.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1644
Agree
Styles make fights, tall with a great reach for the weight, that’s his strength, drops his hands too much and will get punished for it when he steps up in class, not his weight either, lacks the power
Looks in great shape though but I think he was tiring to the end after a few flurry’s and he was buzzed in the 7th
Got the win though
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1643
Nathan won’t need me to tell him ‘but I will’ that he’s got to do better. Keep that right hand up as it leaves him open to the left hook.
He can take a good workout from that whilst maintaining his unbeaten record in these unprecedented times where no fans allowed.
Must have being so so different with no fans there but hopefully at the next bout fans will be allowed in as that is a massive plus for him.
Knowing his trainer he’ll be getting a bit of a talking to and quite right too.

Im afraid he will have to be much better than that performance , looks physically strong but absolutely no power in those punches , oliver needs to learn to move his head.

Against Stokes he became embroiled in a battle which was brought on by him wanting to put a show on due to the amount of tickets that he had sold. He was surprised that I enjoyed the Ambomo performance much better because of what was at stake ‘learnt beforehand that providing he came through that then he would be on the undercard at the Birmingham Arena and to which he got tv exposure’ as that to me showed how disciplined he can and had to be. His words afterwards to me were ‘you weren’t bored then’ to which I replied there’s even more skill in trying not to get hit and it’s the best I’ve seen you box.

In reply to Post #1635
Agree that he should win comfortably and hopefully he will and then continue to move onwards and upwards. As usual he’s certainly being putting in the graft and being sparring with the top British lads.

|
|

In reply to Post #1632
He’s got to work behind that fantastic jab of his. His defensive skills are very very good when required as can be seen to good effect - and it had to be when defeating the big hitting Serge Ambomo.
Edit - Also he can fight but his attributes are a fantastic jab and excellent punches to the body. Against Serge Ambomo he was so disciplined that night and that to me was his best performance of his career thus far.
Got into a brawl with Tom Stokes for the midlands title until his trainer told him that he needs to work behind that jab, and indeed he did as he needed to take those last 3 or 4 rounds to which he did with good defensive skills.

Nathan says that the star attraction has had to pull out due to a positive Covid test but BT sports are still going ahead with the show.
When googling Carl Frampton it says that he asked for more time to get over a hand injury which sounds bizarre this late in the day.
Edit . Went drop off some good luck cards ‘He’s ambassador for our local youth club for adults with learning disabilities’ and says ‘he hopes he lets no one down, but I’m ready’.
Put in all the hard hours and hopefully he will do the business.
Good luck Nathan.

Watched the Warrington fight, not at the races, seemed disinterested if I’m honest, sure there is a reason, out for 12 months, couple of new kids, could have took its toll on his focus? His game his high tempo and on them, like a different fighter, hope he comes back as he was before

In reply to Post #1604
I agree, I bet out of the two though Poirier looks like his face has been run over by a bus tomorrow
I can remember when Bisping beat Henderson, somehow lol !
I agree about the wide stance, the man has some serious power in that LH and he was not landing those devastating punches, did in the first, a nice elbow or two as well.
Gonna have to watch the second Diaz fight, think it was CM who did a leg job on him, can’t remember?
I would have thought they would all want Kalib N back in the octagon to give him a fist lesson lol
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1603
Think the kicks to the leading leg could have troubled him
it was the reason he lost the fight IMHO his leg was dead
I see now he has said exactly that my leg was dead
if you notice he always throws his normally super accurate punches from that wide stance but he lost that wide stance by the 2nd round and his mobility and his punches were then missing the target
its certainly buggered up his career I would have though
so maybe the next big match would be Poirier v Diaz ????
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1601
Watched the fight. CM ahead for me until he got caught. Respect though, both guys excellent strikers, caught CM and finished him. Opposite to the first fight!
Think the kicks to the leading leg could have troubled him, didn’t think he was focused for me CM, did not look as sharp, the leg kicks could have held his attacks back? To be fair though, I don’t think they were overly powerful and not enough to do damage, saying that, I don’t feel them lol
I think he thought he could walk it and paid the price. Also the time out won’t help
3rd time, could go either way, both can finish, I would put my money on CM

In reply to Post #1592
Yeah, the division is stacked, just hope boxing politics dont stop them geting in with each other!
Unfortunately i cant see the Spence Crawford fight being made unless one moves promotional outfit, would be very interesting tho. I lean towards Crawford, but only because of the car crash and the fact that Danny Garcia just didnt pose enough of a threat to show Spence isnt carrying any damage, but is a proper 50/50!
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1591
Very similar thoughts to me mate on all counts
If Davis and Lopez meet it should be very interesting. Lopez has the reach and I thought he was amazing against Loma, timed him perfectly. Davis can land and when he does, Santa Cruz
Saying that, so can Lopez
Probably the most competitive weight at the moment followed by Crawford and Spence etc
All got to add up to some great fight nights though for the fans
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1590
Fair play to Garcia, was a good win and sickening shot to end it, but unless his defence improves, Tank and Lopez will walk through him and Loma will box his ears off. I think he stops Haney though.
I cant see Tank beating Lopez, he has good power but is a small Lightweight, I see Lopez doing the same as he done with Loma to Davis.
Very exciting division tho!
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1589
Nice one
Interesting fight, brilliant shot by Campbell in the 3rd was it, could have ended embarrassing that
Looks good Garcia. Not sure about the planted feet, looking to land the powerful shots, and he got hit a lot for me. Needs to up his game, there is some proper talent in that division
For me Davis tops the lot but it’s VERY close, some good fights on there way though

Met him a couple of times , a bloody lunatic , much better fighter out of the ring than in.

Made me laugh when some of the pundits were saying he can’t take the power or handle the reach of Smith. He bet Kovalev who was an absolute monster and has been in with GGG twice!
Credit to Smith he stayed in their and took the punishment, JG was going to pull him out after the 9th!
This game is about levels and he was a couple below.

Worth a listen to an interview that Trish Morrison had with Dennis Taylor from ringside boxing show. Certainly not her or experts understanding that he died from aids and explains what actually killed him.
Édit - Is there only aids that can cause multi organ failure then?.
Certainly an interesting story of how a 12ft piece of gauze was left insideTommy’s chest and is this what is claimed took Tommy’s life. Might find it was this the primary cause of multi organ failure.

Anyone know much about Tommy’s reported passing?.

Agree, GGG admitted he was not the same level as real world class opponents. Knocked the ring rust off though. I will be very interested to see what happens next.
BJS might start waving his hands in the air again?
Andrade has to fit in somewhere he has been banging the drum for a while.
I would like to see the above two fight it out
GGG says he will fight anybody, I don’t doubt that, at 38 I firmly believe a Canelo rematch next year is the real goal for mr G

Pathetic mandatory fight in my opinion golovkin completely outclassed him, 21st defence a record .

Watched the fight, not sure about the change in style though, threw the jab very well but the timing was out at times, landed some brilliant upper cuts. Maybe he has reinvented himself for Canelo 3?
Looked in great shape thought, prefer the old looping bombs and aggression if I’m honest
Great fighter though

Golovkin wins again what a surprise.

Must have felt that as it was a right smack on it. Don’t see how he ever gets near the better heavies.

Well, I will give credit to Joshua, good performance
Disappointed with Pulev, was hoping he was going to be all over Joshua, when he did get inside, Joshua tied him up well. Brave man though, took some proper shots
Verdict. Joshua did not have his chin tested, can’t train that. Better performance but he is a few levels below Fury in the boxing department and that jab will be no good, he will be on the end of one
The good news is, it sounds like the Fury fight is on

Missed the Marku fight, will have to watch the re-run
Huey Fury next, see what happens here
|
|
|

Im going for the outside bet Pulev to stop Joshua
but it could just be wishful thinking
and
Agree Marku should have got it was close but in my opinion he did enough with the knock down to take the win I was shocked at the draw decision
|
|
|
|
|
Marku has just been ****ing robbed. That wasn't even ****ing close.

In reply to Post #1518
Possibly
I’m hoping Pulev puts him out
|
|

In reply to Post #1516
Joshua by knockout .
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1516
I’m paying for it
If I’m honest Gerry, I’m confused looking in. Joshua seems overly confident. I think once he cops for a good one he will go back to type. Can’t see him reinventing himself since the Ruiz fight
As I see the fight panning out. Pulev knows what he has to do to win. I have been watching his workouts, lot of bobbing and slipping, he is going to try and get on the inside and let him have it for me and that’s how you beat Joshua. Poor defence, fights in straight lines with fast combinations
Joshua has to get the jab going and get him on the end of it, It’s that simple, if Pulev puts himself in range on the end of it and can’t deal with the jab then he loses, he eats the combinations
I will ask anybody a question though, what did they think to the second fight with Ruiz, I thought Joshua was awful myself but he managed to get the job done.
It’s heavyweight boxing so don't blink you could miss it
It’s one man or the other. I will go for Pulev within 8, that’s based on, he has him out of there in 4 or 5, or it drags on a bit. Over that I would expect Joshua

COME ON PREDICTIONS no siting on the fence
who and how is going to win ??................... the 39 years old or the young one with suspect punch resistance
whats you bet ?

He’s a tough lad that Hall and a good learning exercise for McKenna. Connections wouldn’t have expected anything less than what he got. Seen Hall at the kings hall a couple of times and he’ll not go short of work for the likes of Stevie who see it as gaining good experience. Got to work a jab a lot more and can’t just try to finish the job early. His brother Aaron does indeed look really classy.

In reply to Post #1511
Steve mckenna looks very very amateur , his opponent matty hall has lost something like 57 out of 63 fights !!! His brother however looks to be very classy.

In reply to Post #1510
Pretty decent is Sam. This lad McKenna whose on now is a fantastic prospect along with his brother Stevie too.
Edit - Nathan was hoping to be out on the 19th December but unfortunately the world title fight he was down for on the undercard didn’t materialise. Hoping to now be out at end of jan early feb.

Anybody watch the Pulev vs.Joshua weigh in?
Pulev looks in great shape and is very confident, to be fair I can understand why
Needs to get inside like Ruiz and make it happen, if he sits outside on the end of Joshua’s jab and range he loses for me, otherwise he wins unless he walks onto one

In reply to Post #1504
yes I was surprised Pulev is 39 must of had a little paper round ? But has the power for an upset for sure
Maybe the PPV sales are not going well so bit of acting at the weigh in ? or am I being ?

In reply to Post #1503
Saw pulev win the super heavyweight at the euro championships in liverpool in 2008 ,He looked very capable but that was 12 years ago , he is now 39 i think ! Most fights on pay per view are £19.99 yet this one is £24.99 !!!! Again trying to hype joshua making him into something he aint as we always do in this country.

In reply to Post #1502
I’m tempted to pay for it now ffs
Complete rip off no doubt but I’m looking forward to it. No pressure on Pulev whatsoever. Joshua has got to win or this is another major blip on his record. Very dangerous fight for him. Pulev is the mandatory, should have happened in 2017 but he managed to duck and dive that one. Had to laugh at one of Hearns comments, subconsciously admitted they had cherry picked all his previous fights. No way out now. The real tests are coming!
Either way this result could set up some good fights for next year fight fans

In reply to Post #1501
Totally agree. It’s an obscene amount.

I would,nt pay 2.49 to be honest , im not joshuas greatest fan , after a year out the bloke hes facing is nothing to write home about , its disgraceful charging that amount when people all over the world are struggling to make ends meet !

Be interesting to see what happens though now. I bet there is not a decent heavyweight about who does not fancy it, fear factor, gone, said it all along, seriously touchable in the chin department

In reply to Post #1494
Didn’t criticise him Gerry, the opposite, just a very good solid boxer who gets the results, can’t say he excites me though
I think our commentators talk a bit of **** at the times but the yanks deffo take the biscuit

|
|
|
In reply to Post #1493
Funny how we see fights differently ?
I thought Spence Jr did well after over a year out following his accident no warm up match straight in ?
I was so pissed off with the 2 commentators on Premier that just would not shut up yapping bullshine nonstop to each other I lasted to round 5 before muting the sound gggrrrrrrrr

In reply to Post #1491
I thought Yarde was a mile behind myself. Arthur was superb with the jab all night. I gave Yarde about 4 rounds and they were VERY close. Couldn’t break Arthur down. When he did land they were glancing blows until the 12 round slug fest. Great performance from Arthur for me and a deserved win
Anybody watch Errol the boring truth Spence? Garcia was slow to the punch, had to close him down and put it on him like Porter did for me. Credit to Spence though, they always say if you do the basics very well you will go far, he is very good. His left hand has got to be one of the best in the business, his timing is superb
Got to be Crawford vs. Spence next, that should be a cracker

In reply to Post #1491
Yeah i think dubois career could be over , nasty one that , was disapointed with yarde he just could,nt get past arthurs jab.
|
|
|
|
Well I would have not been surprised if it had been a draw but if there was to be a winner then the right man won Yarde did not do enough to win IMO
and Jeff you were dead right Daniel Dubois did have a serious eye injury so was right to stop

Saunders is a classy boxer when he is on his game
Agree with that, similar to Fury, seems to lack motivation at times for me. must be a traveller thing lol, both great boxers though who have had blips in their careers, mental!
Had a look at McGrail, good interview, hope he does well, on seconds out, good channel that
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1488
Saunders is a classy boxer when he is on his game. If his style floats your boat, search out footage of Peter McGrail, a local amateur due to turn pro after the Olympics (if it ever happens !!) Known as the Scouse Lomachenko
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #1487
I think outright punching power could be said about both of them?
I think Saunders is more of a natural middleweight myself. Plus his style is not exactly landing the bombs. Sure they take their toll though!
I think that is Murray done too, stepping into a ring with GGG and having that on the record is impressive in itself for me. Can’t say I have seen that many of his fights. Respect though, was on the end of it and took it on the chin last night

In reply to Post #1483
Martin is a legend around these parts, and having more than a passing interest in Boxing I have watched a lot of his fights. Very technically gifted boxer with a great heart, but its clear to see that he doesn't have the power to take out opponents at world level.
Last nights tactics were typical of the way he approached most of his fights. Cool and measured, tight defence and then crank up the pressure in the second half of the fight, regularly dropping lesser opposition with his body shots.
Unfortunately age is against him days and he didn't have what was required against a class opponent last night. I expect him to retire now.
Highlight of his career for me was taking the Martinez fight in his back yard and narrowly missing out on points.

3 losses on the card Gerry, can certainly bang but is called boxing, see what happens when he steps up a level
Two great champions at that weight, Davis and Lopez, both another level completely for me, superb
As well as Yarde tonight, great fight over the pond. Spence and Garcia, should be a cracker

Anybody watch BJS vs. Murray?
Heroic performance by Murray, totally outboxed by Saunders. Didn't quite get the tactics, high guard, block the shots and counter? or it was just economical for him, who knows?
Great performance by BJS, great movement and hand speed with an array of shots. Possibly the complete or finished article now?
I see he wants Canelo now and not GGG. To be fair, he deserves a shot for me
I think once Callum Smith has had his right rib cage smashed to bits BJS could be his next opponent
