The Boxing thread

forgot all about this fight ?? just seen the news about the fight and Khan is chicken shit and nobody pulls out after a low blow unless you are getting beat up and hope to get something out of the fight with some sort of respect in not getting knocked out ??? if you are not in boxing for the right things get the fuck out, EASY MONEY is cheating the the real fans of the sport and is wrong, and also bad for the youth watching thinking its a easy life being a boxer ???

Khan was finished years ago and he is just milking the system and the asian market and his fans in the Uk ?? and in boxing nobody should be aloud to boxing if they are not 100% in boxing for the right things ?? and its a sport not WWE
 
Just seen the punch, looks bad on Khan that really. He punched his hip, i can imagine that not being fun but i am struggling to believe that did for him. The ESPN studio commentators said that Khans trainer asked if he wanted to continue and simply got no reply.

Yup, the fact that he quit after only a minute when he had another 4 to recover says it all. He had no interest in continuing. If he'd genuinely been hit in the balls with a punch so hard he couldn't continue, he'd have hit the deck and stayed there, we've all been there! His acting job was pretty fucking terrible tbh
 
Whyte v Rivas should be a good brawl style wise. Rivas has had eye trouble in the past so must be ok. Never a ppv unless the cards stacked. DW has to get a title shot next.

For it to be in the UK it has to be PPV. Whyte is way above a few hundred grand for a Saturday Fight Night now, so the only alternative would be the USA with DAZN and ESPN sniffing around him. Will be a cracking fight, Whyte is gonna come unstuck one of these days if he keeps going in against top ten fighters.

Hes worth his corn no doubt, Rivas isn't a household name so will need to pull the numbers in with a decent card. Still think he should of got a shot at Wilder ahead of Breazeale.

He’d give wilder the same trouble Ortiz did, only he’d finish the job.... Wilder is playing the long game to maximise his purses, however, he’s been exposed ridiculously by Fury!

I throught Khan could have been looking at getting bud disqualified for a low blow as he seemed to sack it straight off. He was never going to get anywhere near a p4p too operator. Should never have been in the fight as he didn’t deserve the fight anyway .

Whyte is in for a very hard fight you mark my words Rivas is a very underated fighter and he could well bang an upset here.

No one wants to take a chance with Whyte, so he has to keep taking these kinds of fights to get paid, I think Whyte would give Wilder big problems, it would be Fury’s toughest fight and Joshua obviously wants no part as he would have been a better/tougher fight than Miller and should have been offered the chance to fill the void now left by Miller

Wouldn't say that. They've fought twice, Whyte won the first at amateur level and Joshua the second at pro. Joshua was the better fighter in the pro fight but Whyte had his moments as well and has really improved since. I think it would be a hard fight to call.

He also was coming back off of a shoulder injury.....

Whyte has become the people’s champion, he hasn’t shirked one fight put in front of him, and remains the hungriest in my opinion!

Do you not think Joshua has improved at the same time and so the balance remains the same?

Anyway the point was that it was being suggested that Joshua was avoiding him, bit harsh when you have already beaten that fighter at "pro" level once.

I'm sure Joshua has improved, but not as noticeably as Whyte, he was the far more mature fighter mentally when they met last and for me that's where Whyte is most improved.

Probably harsh to say he is ducking the lad, but Whyte is probably the top contender and none of the 3 are fighting him, you have to ask why.

Boxing politics as ever.

Anyway went back and been rewatching the fight from round 3 onwards, absolutely awful commentary btw, think I am up to the round where he uppercuts his head off.

Joshua isn’t ducking Whyte and I never meant to imply he was, but Joshua knows full well the hard money is Whyte, I’m not saying that Joshua wouldn’t beat Whyte again but the fight is way down the list for Joshua and right at the top for Whyte and it all comes down to who would have the most to lose, which is of course Joshua and for that reason alone he doesn’t want any part of Whyte when there is easy money out there for him
