  1. He's calling his bluff at this time. AJ is a busted flush, sorry to say, as I like the guy sort of. THE fight is now Fury Usyk. This would just be a warm up, big pay day fight. Usyk has already said he won't be fighting for some time.
  2. I thought Josh started a bit slow, but on the other hand if he'd gone out all guns blazing he'd probably have gassed. What his corner were doing telling he won the first four is anyone's guess. End of the day I was just very impressed with Usyk. Took a punch, was moving as well in the 12th as the first. He's a dull fighter for sure, but the better man won. Not sure there was much Josh could do really. Let's hope we get Fury - Usyk. Would be very interesting, think Fury would have too much for him.
  3. He's a class act as a boxer isn't he? One more fight TF to unify. Then quit.
  4. Yeah, them were the days. These days I get them because #1 son has a SA mate who has SA TV. Brook and Khan was a bit silly. Both past it, Khan's heart was less in it. Time for both to call it a day for me. I'm not interested enough to do PPV. Particularly as you say, all about promoters these days. And big fights are so few and far between. A shame really because I've followed it for so long.
  5. Yeah me two. Used to be on RTL 7 here for a few years. But not now.
  6. Like his Dad. Love him or hate him. He did the biz there on Williams on his home territory. Like his Dad, much underrated. What is to dislike? Apart from the usual he is a ........ ........ ?
  7. Yeah he is good, but not as good as that fight made him look. Ramirez looked like a total slob who hadn't trained since lock down and couldn't be bothered. Bit of a Ruiz job second time round vs Ant. Credit to Taylor, job done. Will be interesting to see where he goes next in a weak division. Don't rate him as much more than above average, but fair play to the guy, he's done the bizz. The card was about right, when you factor in the Vegas factor. Any foreign fighter starts at least a round down.
  8. Well Taylor did the job, but Ramirez looked so far off it. Only half fit at best. Pyric victory for Taylor who looked bang average mostly. Him getting all those belts just shows how poor that division is at the moment.
  9. I am trying to stay up for the Taylor Ramirez fight. But flagging. Hope and expect Ramirez will batter him.
  10. Thought Derek got done there. Parker must be one of the most limited, boring, lucky boxers to have ever got any kind of billing. Ridiculous. Where do they get these judges from? NZ?
  11. Frampton, very good but not great. Not good enough to overcome the size advantage tonight. Also pre-fight his heart didn't seem in it to be honest. Good decision to retire. Let's hope he stays that way. His time has gone. Hopefully he has enough cash in the bank.
  12. Agreed. They all say they want to "get it on". Well do it! It's not like Tyson and Josh are going to die of starvation based on the split. Eddie Hearn is after filling his pockets here. He is a right empire building twerp. It will end up a blood money fight in Saudi, Qatar, Yemen. You name it. Whoever stumps up the most cash. Boxing has always been this way. They do not give a flying about "the fans". TV deals, state subsidy, $$$$$ is all that matters.
  13. That would be a good one. But I think, could be wrong, that Dillion is mandatory now after Fury/Josh x2? Ruiz and Wilder are yesterday's men for me. Fury, Josh is where it is at.
  14. Back on track. Nice one mate. Underrated IMO.
  15. Bloody annoying, but not available anywhere here in NL. Even PPV. Live text it is. Make or break for Big Dill. Fingers crossed for him...
  16. Good win and performance by Okolie tonight. Well done young man!
  17. True. Not great for English boxers at this time. They all seem very undercooked and with an excuse story at hand. To be fair they have come up against decent stuff. But very poor stuff. They are better than this. And they know it.
  18. Fascinating chat between Lennox and the Haymaker on the ever excellent Bunce and Costello podcast this week. 5 live Boxing with Costello & Bunce - Best of 2020; plus Garcia v Campbell preview - BBC Sounds
  19. My understanding is that Fury is no longer contractually obliged to do a Wilder rematch, and that since AJ has just done a mandatory he will be cut some slack on the next one. So should be good to go in late spring/early summer. Fury would surely need a fight in the meantime though, and his camp don't seem to proposing much. AJ Wilder, well Wilder seems a bit off the radar at the minute after Fury dismantled him. Plus what would be in for AJ? He's done his bit for now. The ball is in Fury's court.
  20. Yeah. It was a bit odd how he took his foot off the gas after round 3. Almost like he wanted a few more rounds under his belt. But decent effort against a decent fighter. Still think a fully firing Furry will be too clever for him.
  21. Wilder triggers his rematch clause sadly. Dillian Whyte is mandatory for WBC, needs to fought by Feb 2021. So any uni fight is mid 2021 earliest sadly. On his day Fury is class above. The question is, will he be on it? For example will he be up for a third Wilder fight, when he's beaten him out of sight twice. I fear we will be denied Fury/Josh.
  22. It's great, but I fear it is one of those sports that has dropped off the TV and most people here won't even know what it even is?
  23. It's a real shame. Used to love going and getting a face full of gravel Great sport. But its profile seems to have sunk to non-existent these days. Ivan Mauger was outrageously good.
  24. Regardless I'm staying up to watch and rooting for Amir. He's a bloody good fighter. Got messed around a lot. But the skill is there. No doubt about it.
  25. All a bit of a mess in HW division. All the fights everyone wants off the table due to TV deals and promoters and drugs. You have to feel a bit for big Ant. He needs some action. I fancy Amir to do the job tonight Paul6754.
