The Boxing thread

"We will do a rematch, what do you think of a rematch Joe". The dickhead.

I honestly think Warren has looked at it and gone "Joshua is successful ..........I need to find someone with a similar physique and power and get him as quickly as possible into the mix for when Fury and Joshua are fighting"

They have badly handled Dubois, he really looked badly prepared for what he came up against tonight. Hope he recovers and comes back, he seems like a good kid.

Agree 100%, Dubois seems a good lad who has been accelerated way beyond his level prematurely just so others can pimp off him.
I remember a Scouse heavyweight in the 80s called Noel Quarless, decent domestic level but no more. But the BBC had Bruno tied up so ITV and their favoured promoters decided they wanted a heavyweight prospect.
Poor old Quarless was hyped up way beyond his ability and ended up fighting proper lads out of his league and took a couple of nasty beatings. Then ITV dropped him like a hot rock

We used to joke about dodgy scoring on the continent and occasionally in the states,some of the worst scoring in recent years have been on these shores.

Absolutely, the Ritson fight recently was another shocker and that's before it emerged Terry O’Connor was playing with his phone when he should have been scoring

I refuse to go to bed because I have stayed up this long waiting. That last fight was an abomination, the next clash might only last a round so I may keep my eyes open long enough to say "I was there".

That's if one of them doesn't pull a muscle in the warm up.

Same for me. Hoping for a one punch KO.
 
Why oh why do i do it.
I vowed never to stay up for a fight after the crap that was the last few Ricky Hatton fights.
Yet again i'm questioning why i even bothered this time. Nostalgia?
FFS just get the fight on!
 
You know on reflection the referee was totally out of order with that slow 10 count in the last fight. I get why he did it but the fact he did it twice and didn't stop the fight was irresponsible.
