The Boxing thread

[Nethermoor]

Gutted for Parker, happy for Wardley. Seems a nice lad and can punch. Any extras in the heavies is always good.

If that was a stoppaged, how did Fury not get stopped against Usyk when Usyk boxed him around the ring....

starts around 1 min:

Parker won against whoever he was matched with during that time. Wardley v Whyte won't happen isn't Whyte his manager still?
I don't know what camp your saying has had the doping in it. I fully will always say any trainer would never know what there fighters are taking. They can't be with them 24/7.
Now whatever nutritionist attached to the team they might know but in all it's down to the fighter to know what he is taking. Every year they get lists of drugs they can't take so the buck lies with them alone.

The Fury camp

Trainers 100% know what’s going on. They’re more familiar with changes in your body than your girlfriend is. Look at Tony Sims’ camp …. you think Benn and Cash just happened to develop KO power at the same time and then that power vanished mysteriously ?

Back when Fury got done for doping he was with either his uncle Peter or Ben Davison. Last couple he changed his training team completely. To Sugar hill and Andy Lee as his second. Now Andy Lee has been training Joe Parker recently alone in Dublin and Lee has a few good fighters with him. Lee has some great talented young fighters the Paddy Donovan , Ben Whittaker and Hamzah Sheeraz. I honestly don't think Lee's gym has a doping issue.

Brad Rea v Lyndon Arthur today, hopefully Brad gets a win and the crowd can get behind a blue and also celebrate the life of the Hitman considering this is(I think) the first big Manchester card since his passing

Fair comment Leighton. Andy Lee is just an all round good guy,
I agree it would be a bit of a stretch to suspect foul play involving him.

 

[Deepest Blue]

Bradley Rea putting up a good show against Arthur.
He's ahead at the moment but will he stay the course?

 

[Don Karleone]

Arthur finding that uppercut every time.

 

[Nightmare Walking]

Arthur is a better fighter. More experienced and more skilful.

 

[Deepest Blue]

Arthur the more skilled boxer but looking old.
May get away with it this time but he's on the downslope

 

[Don Karleone]

Brad still winning overall imo

No chance.

No chance.

Not after this round

 

[Deepest Blue]

Rea's left eye a mess

 

[Nightmare Walking]

Not after this round

Arthur has won every round since the 4th for me. Totally outboxed him.

Yeah like I know a few amateur fighters in Ireland and they all talk extremely highly of Andy and even at any live events he always has time for the young kids at the fights here. He's been in some top gyms Kronk and Adam Booth so he has picked up the best practices from those gyms a very smart guy
