David Haye snapped his Achilles and carried on with one leg for 9 rounds!

Boxers dont quit, they get stopped or pulled out by their corner! That is why they are a different breed! DDB quit that night!

Talking absolute shite then if you're comparing a snapped Achilles to a broken orbital bone. Easy saying he quit you would of been on the deck in agony if it was you. Why risk losing your eyesight when you can recover and go again? Seems like he made the right choice now doesn't it!

I honestly don't mate! Usyk is that technically good, he is almost Booring, just like Mayweather!

If Hatton would have gone to the distance with Mayweather, we would have all said he was robbed and should have won. But In truth, Hatton and Fury lost their unbeaten records to boxers who are just better than them and who have never been beaten!

Mentally Usyk is up there with the best! Usyk has beaten Tyson Fury twice because he wasn't scared of the Bully. Just like Lewis and Hollified wernt scared of Mike Tyson!

Ricky lost because of what he was putting up his nose and in his belly.
And a bent referee..

All his own downfall( apart from the ref splitting them up every time when Ricky was trying to work the inside) ..
.
He could have beat Mayweather when Ricky was in his prime.

He never would have beat Manny though. .. styles make fights.

I loved Ricky. But he did not (imo) have enough talent to beat Mayweather. Mayweather is one the greatest, if not the greatest lb 4 lb fighter that has ever lived. His resume is staggering.

I know mate I agree to a point.
Never would say Ricky was ever the best but I still believe if the stars aligned, he didn't fuck about with his health, and wasn't a bit arrogant leading up to that fight and also the referee totally fucked him over that night,
Which is why Ricky shown him his arse .

He was doing well with what little inside work the ref would let him but then you could see his heart sink just before he got lamped with the ref constantly, instantly trying to pull them apart and not letting Ricky do what he was known for, what he was good at..

Mayweather will go down as the greatest boxer ever no doubt about that.

I just believe with an impartial ref and the Ricky that fought kostya tszyu there was more then a chance to beat him.

22 February
  • Daniel Dubois v Joseph Parker (IBF heavyweight title)
  • Artur Beterbiev v Dmitry Bivol (Undisputed light-heavyweight championship)
  • Carlos Adames v Hamzah Sheeraz (WBC middleweight title)
  • Shakur Stevenson v Floyd Schofield (WBC lightweight title)

There's some crackers in January too, but this is a night of boxing to look forward to.

Don’t underestimate Parker he’s a durable guy
 
Looks like a better card than the Chisora v Wallin one at the COOP (new arena not the shop near Victoria Station), which has plenty of availability.
