That Eubank and Benn exchange was so embarrassing lol 

 

Neymer being used as a puppet and looking unbelievably awkward as well.

even more so considering Benn is still suspended, although "his excellency" will pay off the board to allow him to fight

felt bivol deserved the win

I agree. I was really surprised the commentators on TNT were pushing Beterbiev for the whole fight for essentially pressuring and punching glove and arm.. Bivol did the vast majority of the clean work and whilst Beterbiev was pouring it on in the last 3, I thought Bivol was a few clear by then.

it was such a close fight the last two rounds swung it in beterbiev favour for me  , but robbed come on

If Bivol thought he needed to win the last 2 rounds or even 1, he would of.  This game has put.me off it

Thought a draw was a fair result. Beterbiev was more active and thats swayed the judges. 116-112 is a joke though lol

 

Rematch will be a bit more aggressive you feel.

 

Regardless of the result it was great watching two top boxers going at it.

 

The Nicholson v Chapman fight was up there with the most boring fights I've ever seen.

 

Give me a mega card with

Beterbiev v Bivol.

Ball v Inoue.

Davies v Garcia

Usyk v Dubois

Eubank v Benn (just to see one of them KO'd)

Although not the worse decision by boxing standards, I think Bivol won by 1 round, draw at the worse. But one judge gave it to Beterbiev by 4 rounds, that kind of scoring is not great for the sport.

I don't know too much about boxing but that Bivol and Beterbiev fight seemed extremely high quality. 

 

I don't know how likely it is, but a rematch would be a good watch. 

It really was. The standard from both was next level, especially defensively.

 

Decision was definitely wrong. Beterbiev more aggressive but the vast majority of shots were blocked.

Surprised Neymar didn’t go down injured. 
 

Benn has come across a bit of a nob over the last few days. Would like to see the fight though, genuine needle. 

I think the two go hand in hand, for all I much prefer good fighters just getting on with it and letting their performances do the talking.

 

There's something about wanting to see someone running their mouth off get sparked out lol it's a promoters dream.

No doubt Benn jnr & Eubank jnr have some talent, but they're both making a living off their father's achievements to a very large degree.

 

I just think they both get too much media attention & air time based on their dad's achievements.

 

Unfortunately this fight will probably go ahead & the paying public will line the pugilist's pockets. 

 

Some Promoters (probably most) really have no ethics, or moral fibre & just see these two as cash cows.

Press conference today for Fury Usyk2.

 

 

I see that Dennis McCann is fighting on the undercard. I first mentioned him in here 2-3 years ago now. Exciting style. I do think he will be a World Champion one day.

I  know that boxers make up all sorts of excuses… but no one would make this up… that’s quite a burden to take into a massive fight..

McCann is really talented, but he isn't very active. This will only be his 4th bout in 2 years. 

That probably won't mean much though if he fulfills his potential.
