I'll bow to your greater knowledge. I honestly don't remember that. But, assuming he did, is that all there's been?

I can't think of any more, mate. There has not really been another Manc fighter with a big enough profile to fill a stadium, since Hatton. Crolla filled the MEN, but he's a rag.

Didn't Hatton fight there?

He did mate..
The Etihad that is..

Juan lazcano.

Edit I was there and I've got vague memories of pauly malignaggi on same bill and having to cut his long hair off in the ring.

Has there ever been a major fight that both Sky and BT/TNT both screened, like the Joshua vs Dubois bout on saturday? I can’t think of one.

Fury / Usyk was.

Fury / Usyk was.

Was it? Thanks.

Anybody heard any truth in Dubois dad being the reason behind Don Charles not being around this week? Heard rumors that Dan is under his old man's control and Charles is not down with that.

 

[Nellies left peg]

Sky are bigging up this fight as something special. It should be a routine win for Joshua. If it wasn’t on iptv I wouldn’t even consider watching it as the undercard doesn’t fill me with excitement either

Split decision my arse, Buatsi battered him there

Why do some boxers have dreadful taste in music? That ringwalk "song" that Denny used was awful. As is Sheeraz's, with that rapper walking beside him. Remember Chris Eubank's choice? "Simply the Best", by Tina Turner. Classic song.

Eubank was a great showman. He loved winding the often hostile crowd up.
