Quigg is finished 

 

Jono deserves another shot at a title 

 

thought it would be a scrap but in reality Jono won every round and beat the shite out of Quigg 


Yeah time for the pipe and slippers, dreadful card from start to finish bar the Parker fight.

Still, it’s a very pro IRA statement. Bobby Sands popularised it. I take your point though. 

There is no IRA anymore and I think the History should be left in the past 

 

Bobby Sands was a freedom fighter but he was also a teacher, scholar and martyr 

 

I also can appricate how it might upset people who were affected by the war in the north of Ireland but there was evil on all sides 

 

It’s high time Irish politics and history was given back to the Irish

Something doesn’t feel right with this Usyk v Chisora fight. Maybe I’m being too cynical but all the talk sounds like a set up to me. 
I don’t trust Haye, Chisora, Hearn or Sky Sports so who knows what they’ve all got planned.

 

But I’m probably just talking bollux as normal and it’s all above board and genuine ;)

It’s a pay day for Del Boy and it helps to Build a false narrative about Usyk , all a con job really 

So you think he’s too small a stature (ala David Haye) to compete this the likes of Fury, Wilder, Joshua, Ruiz, Parker, Whyte??

Pretty much, Usyk is being built by hearn for Joshua to keep ducking fury and wilder 

AJ doesn’t duck a fighter, and would never duck wilder who wobbles with every punch... I rightly picked fury would destroy Wilder, thought it would be within 5 but fury had him down twice by then so I take that as a decent prediction. Lost money because I put 20 on fury to knock wilder out in 5... sucked but he lasted longer than I thought. AJ gets him in 3.

 

Anyone can go back on post to see that was my prediction I was confident, Wilder has no stance or boxing ability, hadn’t beaten anyone of note and was just handed a title. 

 

Anyway back to proper boxers and not fakes like Wilder, Fury who I have grown to respect now I doubt AJ could beat him, although it would be the two best heavyweights and not so straight forward. 
 

Usyk isn’t on the radar yet unless he beats Chisora, which I think he will do on points, but not beat Whyte, yep he will have to fight Whyte to get near a heavyweight title. If he does and goes Fury, Usyk has zero chance though.


Wilder is the clown throughout, Ruiz, Whyte, AJ and Fury, plus Parker and even Usyk would beat him. They are Champions in their own right after all, something Wilder should never have been honoured with.

Interesting that the UFC had fights behind closed doors. 

 

Perhaps an alternative to rescheduling for boxers as 12 week camps for a particular date make them more difficult to rearrange than football. They'd still make money from PPVs too? Obviously it wouldn't be anywhere near as good to watch without the crowd.

i think the UFC was better without the crowd tbh. felt much more raw and much more intense.

Anything in this further UKAD investigation into Fury? 

 

few reports from different sources saying the guy making the claims rang round asking for big money. didn’t get it. already lied under oath so it’s hard for him to be taken as speaking 100% truth.

Boxers you’ve met :thumbup:

 

1. John Conteh - cheeky scouser, lovely fella

 

2. John H Stracey - got a signed picture of him in the loft somewhere. 
 

That’s it.
