  1. What a fight! Thought fury should have got usyk out of there when he had the chance! When i saw furys ring walk i was worried about how he would perform, he looked p#ssd, dont like it when he messes around and showboats, i know some boxers do it to gain confidence and control there nerves but never like seeing it! Prefer the spartan march to the ring kind of fury i thought wed see not the "this is going to be easy" fury!

    Did not see usyk turning it round like he did, what a boxer! I had him up by the end of the fight! Ref should have stopped it in the 9th imo, not sure what the ref was doing!

    All in all great fight, great undercard, shocking atmosphere, hate the whole saudi thing! 
     

    Massive credit to usyk but i think fury blew it, he should have and could have got him out by the 8th if he hadnt been so cocky and played with him rather than go in for the finish, think he buzzed him later on too but just stood off him! Rematch is a tricky one, usyks quality and i wonder if with 12 rounds of knowledge behind him he has furys number now! Fury might havd missed his chance!

    I just can't get excited about this fight and I reckon its because its in Saudi. No atmosphere, everyone showing off their wealth etc. 

    No doubt I'll warm to it tomorrow night but it's passing me by at the moment. 

    Yeah it is like a cheesy disco with all the music 🙈 cringy af them all arse licking! I love the actual boxing but hate, with a passion the politics etc! Like football really, like the game hate the money etc!

  3. Usyk doesnt see round 9 in my opinion! Usyk is a quality boxer tho but i think furys just too big and is a clever boxer with a high ring IQ who knows how to use his attributes! Think fury will box smart first few rounds beind the jab to rack up the points then put his foot down with that kronk style and smash him up later on! Usyks late 30s and has come in heavier than usual so id imagine he will tire with his style later in the fight!

    Mad that sugarhills uncle was lennoxs trainer last time the division was unified!

    Like Alpha said the undercard is quality, i dont get to watch much pro boxing as dont usually like to pay unless a big fight and i find it hard to get a quality version on you tube after! Looking forward to watching moses itauma tonight!

    I know what you mean, a good big 'un always beats a good small 'un. Usyk is six inches shorter, over two stone lighter and giving up seven inches of reach. Which makes you think Fury has it. But Usyk can fight southpaw, will be the faster puncher to score and has beaten fighters of (nearly) Fury's size. Anyone who tells you they know how this is going to end is lying, to you and to themselves.

    Yeah, you never truly know how a fight will go, specially heavyweights! Usyks obviously got a chance, fury struggled with johnson, similiar size to usyk! 
     

    For me its fury all day long tho, he can switch hit! Derek gave usyk problems, bellew was arguably up on points before usyk worked him out and dropped him, debous, altho a low blow imo, did get to the body! 
     

    Usyk is no spring chicken, lot of amateur fights, plus furys the type of boxer who gets up for the big dangerous fights! Like you say, a good big en beats a good lil en imo!

    If usyk does beat him then fair play, he goes down as one of the best boxers of our era, to be fair already is even if he loses! I just hope there is some action and its not just a fury shut out boxing behind the jab! To people who know boxing its a masterclass, to the casuals its boring and he wont get his dues!

  5. I think furys to big for him! Fury either stops him or wins on points for me! I think usyk is a great boxer but just to small at the weight, dont see how he beats fury! If he gets in close fury will tie him up or clip him coming in! Then fury just works behind his jab and drops the odd bomb at range! Be interesting to see what fury weighs, he looks light!
     

    As for the rest of the furys, shanes the only one worth listening to! John always plays the clown trying to entertain people!

    Inoue is really quite impressive. For the first five rounds he looked like he was winning on points but then he just seemed to take it up a level - or maybe he is carrying on at the same rate as his opponents tire. The finishing combination was just text book - problem for him is where to go, we've seen time and again that power punchers lose their unique advantage when they go up through the weights but he's cleaned up here so hard to see much attractive to him or the promoters.

    Hes quality! Its a shame the lighter weights dont get the recognistion they deserve in the main stream media and therefore the money! If he was welter or above hed be a household name around the world, unbelievable fighter!

    You always have to question fighters who can jump through weight classes. You can’t just pack on 20lbs of lean muscle without juicing when you are already a peak condition athlete.

    Canelo’s PED use was brushed under the carpet. You can’t go from 154lbs to 175lbs without putting on fat and looking softer. Impossible.

    Pacquiao as amazing as he is, is another case. Can’t go from 122 to 147+ while still maintaining low body fat. Impossible without enhancements. 

    Makes my blood boil because this isnt bodybuilding! If they paralyze or kill someone because there using PEDs and fight a clean fighter! Should do prison time! Probably would tbh! Disgusting juicing in any combat sport imo!

    Youd like to give them the benefit of the doubt but you could make a case for most juicing! Why did mayweather always fight in vegas? Fighters who finish strongly, thats a sign of PEDs, so froch etc! Boxers only fighting, once or twice a year, is it so they can cycle a PED and have it out there system for training camp! 
     

    You look at athletes now compared to 20 years ago! Is it all because of sports science? Or are the "supplements" getting better and people know how to use them better? Vada is the best anti doping tester tho!

     

  8. Garcia tested positive for PEDs 🙈

    To get popped for PEDs in this day and age there either stupid or it was a genuine mistake! Either one shouldnt happen! 
     

    And i mean stupid because theyve got caught! You cant just juice up and not get caught! They have to micro dose and if they do it properly its hard for vada to catch them! Theres a really good podcast on boxing news about it! Well worth a listen! Its rife in pro boxing! Another reason i prefer the anateurs lol!

  9. He obviously splits opinion! Watch him get us flying next season, everyone gets behind him and then he will be poached by another team! It would be looools and gutting at the same time!! 😬🙈🐏🫣

  10. Its been said already! But proper football fans sum up league 1 for me! 
     

    Orient fans singing, "national league champions youll never sing that" followed by "league 2 champions, youll never sing that" was a moment ill remember! 
     

    Love watching Derby and England but over the last few years the amount of money in football is really getting to me! Price of tickets, kits etc etc! Ill spare you the rant as you all know exactly what i mean! 
     

    The games in danger of imploding and clubs in the lower and non leagues are getting screwed more and more! Its sad!!

    How many will be sober enough to actually see the match? 😂

    It's a pity we can't get a few more building the atmosphere inside the ground, rather than in local hostelries. I take it some people only know how to support the team when they are half cut? 

    I don't drink as much nowadays but I might have a few Saturday! I used to think there were 44 players on the pitch until recently. Then 22 magically disappeared if you closed one eye 🤪
