Thought Warrington just edged Galahad but I was impressed by the challenger, I expected it to be easier for Warrington who was awesome last time out.

Comfortable for Fury but that's what it was all about, building a name for himself in America. Done what he had to do and you don't have to have a long memory to see what happens if you aren't right for a 'routine' fight.

Thought Josh was very slow and tentative but think a lot of that was probably due to Galahads style and to be fair his skill as well

Decent fight between Cheeseman and Conway on the now.

***lord bunberry*** · 21-06-2019 09:00 PM

Ends in a draw. I thought Cheeseman probably edged it, but Cheeseman doesn’t help himself with that head down walking forward style. I like him, but he’s pretty limited, I doubt he’ll go further than British level despite his bravery.

Big shocker that. Hearn had him scheduled to meet Fitzgerald next.

Lee McGregor did well again tonight, looking forward to him and Kash Farooq hopefully fighting at the end of the year, would be a great fight

Enjoyed that tonight. He was fired up alright. Only disappointment was some of the Jambo songs from the crowd 😂

Anyone staying up for Artem Lobov v Paul Malignaggi in the bare knuckle fight? Premier Sports at 4am. I usually have no interest in UFC, MMA and this stuff but the build up has been bonkers. Pauli has dropped the nice guy persona and come across as a complete ****.

Watched a wee bit of bare knuckle recently, the quality is pretty poor, the fight early this morning wasnt much better, PM wasnt happy to have been beaten, had a huge gash above his eye that will probably cause issues in the future now I'd guess

I thought PM won it. He boxed clever. I kind of agree with his after fight comments, in boxing he’d have won but it was my first BK fight so don’t know how they score really. Interesting but doubt I’ll tune in again.

I woke up early so watched it, I had PM winning fairly comfortably to be honest, then I keep hearing in bare knuckle boxing judges give points for aggression, so seems as long as you are the aggressor you get points even if you aren't connecting, pretty pish sport

Baffled why PM agreed to this considering he boxes practically one handeddue to the state of his right hand. He’s a decent boxing pundit, maybe needed some quick cash.

Not sure he’ll have made that much cash out of it TBH. I think he just got caught up in the trash talk around the McGregor/Mayweather circus. Think he showed his true colours in the build up, basically just a mouthy wee **** bag but fair play for walking the walk. And as I said earlier, I had him winning the fight.

Decent fight coming up on IFL.TV youtube - Edinburgh's Lewis Paulin v Ryan Walsh.

Decent scrap. I've never taken to any of the Walsh brothers but it's hard to argue they are anything but talented at this kind of level.

I thought O'Hara Davies was very lucky to walk away with a win earlier. He knew it as well.

Vasquez was robbed in my opinion. He had O'D's number from the off. Very questionable decision

Anyone watching this circus from Saudi Arabia tonight? Hughie Fury huffing and puffing at the moment against a guy who was a decent fighter in his day but is well past his best.

**Pretty Boy** · 12-07-2019 08:48 PM

Well that was suitably farcical.

**Onceinawhile** · 12-07-2019 09:30 PM

Khan fight is a good laugh.

About 4 punches and the same amount of head locks.

Khan wins this once Billy has lasted long enough to make it look like a contest.

***K-Zazu*** · 12-07-2019 09:39 PM

Total shambles. Khan getting paid millions to fight bums

I'm not convinced he was a bum 45-5 fight record isn't bad. But he was clearly told, stay in for 3 rounds and you'll get paid.

Dib wasn't a bum but his best days were about 5/6 years ago and he's a blown up featherweight and that's exactly what he looked like.

Khan made 7 million last night

To be honest it’s the exact type of fight I’d be taking if I was approaching retirement. Get that cash in the bank

The sad thing is Khan is still trying to convince himself (and the boxing
punters) that a fight with Pacquiao is possible next - it’ll never happen.

I’m not so sure. The money the Saudi’s are throwing around I think it will happen, especially if Pacquiao loses to Thurman.
