    a few experts expected an easy win for Joyce, bookies had him huge odds on to win so i didn't bother having a little flutter, can't remember which ex boxer i was reading the other day but he thought joyce was the 3rd best heavyweight in the world

    Wasn't an ex boxer, was a current boxer who Joyce beat out for a place in the Olympics.

    Joyce lacked the basic skill of self-defence. It's all very well having a big punch, but if you can't avoid them, then you suffer. Parker rocked him in their fight and there seemed to be a general consensus that Joyce needed to improve on the fundamentals. he clearly didn't.

    Whoever had Joyce ahead of Fury, Usyk or Wilder needed spec savers, they would all molicate him, as did Zhang.

    Split decision win for Cordina. About right I thought

    1 official gave it 116-111 to Rakhimov. Wild

    Couldn't really have complained if that went either way, hard not to like Cordina and wish him well though

    Great stuff from Tank. Hopefully he kicks on now and we see some of the best from 135-140lbs fight each other.

    i'm still looking for whoever it was in the article i read but after a quick Google the big man himself Tyson Fury rated Joyce the 2nd best Heavyweight in the world, article from 7 months ago .. Tyson Fury: Joe Joyce is the second best heavyweight in the world. We’ll have to find out if he can beat me | Boxing News | Sky Sports

    Alvarez 1/16
    Ryder 9/1

    couldn't get a link on my iptv so ended up listening to BBC radio, sounded a great fight then midway through the 10th the bbc link terminates, what a shocking service this BBC really is

    Anyone else try to get the KSI fight? We got DAZN on but only had the Katie Taylor fight on (some fight by the way). Missed the KSI fight though by looks of it 😡.

    Think it was on PPV rather than normal DAZN, from what I've seen on Twitter you didn't miss much, he knocked Fournier out with an elbow Jon Jones would be proud of

    Yeah we had the PPV on though and it was advertising the KSI fight as coming up. That's why I don't understand how we missed it.

    Couple of big fights this weekend. My main focus is on Vegas, Devin Haney v Lomachenko. Hoping the wee Ukrainian can roll back the years to claim the titles

    Think loma could be too small, his natural weight is much lighter. I wouldn’t totally count him out as he's obviously unbelievably talented

    Arum says if haney wins he'll move up and he wants the winner of Taylors fight. Could be two enormous fights for Taylor

    Can't wait for Taylor v Cameron. Haven't looked forward to a fight this much in a while. I'd call it a genuine 50/50 albeit I think Taylor might just nick it with the home advantage.

    Yep I agree, really looking forward to it, couple of years back I'd have definitely given it to Taylor and as mad as it sounds after her fight with Serrano I think she's maybe on the slide a bit from her peak these days, should be a cracker

    Thought that was about right so 2 of the scorecards pretty good. Would’ve agreed on the Moore point but she defo deserved the win.
