Otto from The Simpsons would have given AJ a better fight
Shocking atmosphere so it was, both stands were half empty in the arena, and yet every chance the commentators would tell us how much they love the boxing here, doesn’t look like it, and the rich Princes in the front row were to busy on there mobiles to be arsed about watching the fights, maybe they were shooting folk at the other arena. :rolleyes:
Thought Joshua looked really good. Wallin is no mug, he hurt Fury badly and took him deep and that is only his 2nd loss so it was no gimme in what was a must win fight.
Thought Parker was good as much as Wilder was bad. Took control of the centre of the ring and nullified the power of Wilder well.
Bivol was brutally efficient in beating Arthur who never really got going. I think the only disappointment for him will be that he wasn't able to stop it.
I'm not sure how much money it would take for me to take a dig off Inoue, his punches are like gunshots which is mental for a 5'5" dude
Joshua V Ngannou signed now, AJ will knock him out when he feels like it if he takes it seriously
Makes sense for AJ money wise. With Fury and Usyk tied up to a two fight deal and Wilder losing then its the biggest payday available right now, should be an easier fight than taking less money to fight someone like Hrgovic or Zang
As a boxing spectacle I can see it being very one sided if AJ wants it that way
Ngannou is a monster. Fury turned up fat, with no muscle tone and with no cardio for a exhibition bout. I get the feeling the both of them were sold very different fights.
AJ took his boxing to another level against Usyk the second time, came up short but showed he could be a danger to very top fighters for the first time. I don't think he maintained that against Wallin, but Wallin really let himself down.
I'm not convinced AJ could eat the sort of punishment Ngannou can dish out though. He'll chase AJ around the ring to find those punches and AJs problem is the same as Ngannou - gassing out.
Could be a real thriller with an early finish.
Personally think AJ will destroy him. Ngannou whilst a machine boxed like a County level boxer I thought.
Fury was shattered after 2 rounds, that's what happens when you don't train for a fight.
Fury will take Usyk seriously obviously. Usyk is a master boxer so good technically but I think it could be close, looking forward to it if it actually does happen
What a ****in farcical decision that was. Meyer won that fight.
Remember when Ben Shalom was going to clean up the terrible judging in boxing. Not a peep out of him tonight
Fury Usyk is off after Fury gets a bad cut in sparring
It was always a case of when not if this was pushed back.
Tbf to Fury the image of the cut does look awful.
When I read it I thought surprise surprise. Then I saw the cut and there is no choice, he looks in tremendous shape too. Hopefully they will actually get a fight in the next few months
Fury v Usyk rescheduled for 18th May in Saudi Arabia
Josh Taylor vs Jack Catterall rematch is reportedly now agreed for April 27th in Leeds. [According to @MikeCoppinger]
See Catterall is having some pathetic Jambo love in on Twitter. I thought he won the first fight but really looking forward to seeing Taylor knock him out on 27th April now. Maybe he can convalesce in the Tynecastle Park Hotel for a few nights after it...
Josh has been at a pretty stable weight for a long time now. Prior to the Caterall fight he had ballooned up and left it too late to come back down, not made easier by having a chest infection.
I’m certain he will be better prepared this time.
