Zhang looking good against Parker after 3.
Got a knockdown and controlling the middle of the ring.
Better from Parker.
Bit of a nothing round there.
About 3 punches thrown.
Parker probably doing more, but not by much.
I reckon he needs to win the last two to have a chance.
well done parker that's two tough opponents he's fought and beat
One of those weird ones where you can understand all the scores the referees give, yet they're all different.
Aj with 1st round knick down.
AJ looking good
down again
KO coming up

Aj with a 2nd round knock down.
Boom!Quote:

Called it, Fury should have done the same if he had taken it seriouslyQuote:

What a load of nonsense, Nganouu isn’t even a pro boxer. A compete money grab and fleecing people to buy a PPV
bummer for anyone that interrupted their sleep to watch
Hope we don't see Nganouu in a boxing ring again certainly not at that level.
Well hang on? We were all told he was the real deal v Fury but now he isn’t?Quote:

It wouldn’t surprise me if the fury fight was fixed. You might laugh but making nganou look decent so they can can squeeze another ppv fight out.Quote:

Ok, you are wrong and a bit mental but thanks for clarifying your position.Quote:

Damn. I went with a non-refundable hotel rate as well. Any ideas for things to do on a weekend in Leeds that doesn’t involve boxing. :greengrinQuote:

Contact the hotel directly see if they will move it. I was at something at the Hydro for a show in December with a group of people staying at the Moxy. One couple had to pull out last minute due to a family emergency. They had booked through a third party non-refundable. They phoned the hotel just to say they couldn’t make the booking. It was just a courtesy, they didn’t expect anything nor asked for it but the hotel offered them to stay at a different time.Quote:

Quality corner work from Smiths team. Stepping in then stepping back after throwing is working a treat.
That’s why you need the best trainers. Brilliant stoppage from Smith.
Wardley v Clarke cracking fight
Just reading the terrible news that Willie Limond is fighting for his life after suffering a seizure
Just read that. Awful news.Quote:

You always got an honest performance from him, win or lose and he would have fought anyone.
Sad news about Willie Limond. RIP Champ.
Awful news, so sad for his family.
RIP.
Horribly sad news. RIP
Hadn't heard about him being unwell. That's sad news. Came through around the same time as Alex Arthur so still a relatively young guy.Quote:

Just watched the Garcia fight. Wanted him to win, absolutely delighted! Haney is a boring fighter who wanted to grab and hold all night.
Garcia a real deal puncher, really exciting. Think that’s great for boxing, just a pity Garcia didn’t make the weight.
I thought the weigh in was a nonsense. He could’ve put down the beer and taken his trousers and shoes off and made the weight or at least been closer. They guy is a total bam 🤣Quote:

Absolutely unbelievable. Didn’t look hurt at all from that knockdown and then absolutely dominated. The 2nd and 3rd knock downs from him were sensational.Quote:

I can’t think of any fighter with faster hands. Unbelievable. So glad I got to see him in the flesh on Josh’s undercard a few years ago. A privilege!
Taylor Catterall face off just about to start on Matchroom’s YouTube channel.
Same, so glad to have been to see one the future greatest of all time in the flesh.Quote:

unfortunately
Fury 4/5
Usyk 1/1
not a lot in it
I can’t stand Tyson fury. Hope usyk destroys him but I think usyk wil win on points.
Fury being a fud at the weigh in.
Most overrated, over hyped, bawbag in the history of boxing
My opinion on fury is the same but unfortunately I can’t see past him for this.Quote:

I know it’s the ‘art’ of boxing but he just dances around, twitching and occasionally throws a few punches. Then he just grabs and leans in to try and wear his opponent down.Quote:

I'd love to see Fury lose but I think that Fight to be stopped TKO after Fury's cut opens up ,
Nah you win how you can win. Mayweather danced and dodged to being one of the best ever. Usyks pal Loma when in the correct weight was a genius dancing twitching and throwing when ready.Quote:

Really looking forward to it. Fair play for them taking it. Heavyweight boxing takes over the world when it wants
I don’t like fury but he does have an unbelievable chin. Took wilder’s best shot and got up. Also a better boxer than AJ etc so he nearly is unbeatable. Can’t knock him out and can’t outbox him.Quote:

If Usyk can survive the weight difference and the leaning in then he can win. Fury does master the dark arts as well so hopefully Usyk can do it!
I genuinely don't know how it goes. I think Usyk could outbox him for 12 and get it on points but wouldn't be surprised if the opposite happened. No sure where Usyk goes if he wins, fury obviously has Joshua regardless of the resultQuote:

I always feel a good big one beats a good little one and I think Fury will edge it on points. He'll wear Usyk down by using his size to wrestle and spoil when he needs to and he'll be able to land his usual quick 2/3 punch combos before tying it up and stopping anything coming back. It won't be pretty but he'll get the job done.
Bookies have it very very close so not much in it
Hopefully Usk puts Fury flat on his erse !
BTW What time is it expected to be on ?
Ring walk is about 11 I'm sureQuote:

That’s like saying Shankland is up there with PeleQuote:

I love boxing and I pray Usyk wins because fury has been a disgrace for boxing. Also a drug cheat but managed to blag it. (Eating wild bore with steroids because he is a gypsy)
Second use of the word blag for fury. His mouth has made him More famous than his hands
Ring walks coming up, buzzing for this.
Most of the pundits saying they favour Usyk.
Fury the bookies favourite, just though.
Getting absolutely hammered. Playing a drinking game. See off your drink whenever anyone “would like to thank His Excellency” or whenever anyone lies about the atmosphere being fabulous or whenever anyone says that Saudi has changed/revolutionised the sport :greengrin:
Hope Usyk puts Fury down
FFS get the fight started

I've got fury 3 - 1 up
