    Yeah, I'm pretty certain the drug testing for this fight is minimal and in any case, Fury's camps are usually in the middle of nowhere where he can't be tested.

    George is a credit to the sport. Did things the hard way to work his way up and win against Teo, immediately took the difficult fights in trying for undisputed with Haney, and then took on Lomachenko. It's all you can ask of a fighter. Absolute champion.

    Gvosdyk vs Benevidez is a banger fight. If Gvosdyk is anything close to what he used to be then I think it'd be worth putting some money on him.

    Inoue is the best pure offensive boxer I have ever seen. Surgical punch placement and power in both hands and an athletic advantage I don't think we've seen since Roy Jones Junior. Ultimately, when he slips a bit due to age or going up weight divisions (he is already arguably undersized at...

    They won't. Too much money.

    Yeah. Question is will any of these guys fight Subriel Matias?

    What's crazy is dominating the fight like that when half the time you're doing that stupid ineffectual shoulder roll and another 3rd of the fight you're dancing around the ring for fun. I mean really it felt like he could have stopped him at any time if he just stopped screwing around. The...

    I had completely underrated Ryan Garcia. The commentary was also extremely biased towards Haney. It was weird, Garcia at times seemed like he could completely outbox Haney from range when he wanted to, whicj was unbelievable to me. I couldn't quite believe how easily Garcia could land the...

    It makes sense for Whyte too, no way does he get a fight with another top 5 opponent

    This is a great fight for Parker, should get to look pretty good against a washed Dillian (UNLESS he's been juicing up to his **** on his time out) Deserves a nice showcase fight IMO.

    Yeah, weird fight. I always felt Fundora had more of a chance than Thurman but didn't like the way the cut effected the outcome so much. I also think it was an insane choice for a late callup. Completely different styles, dimensions and also southpaw compared to what Tsyu would have been...

    Parker probablywould have actually lost money fighting e.g. Jack Massey, when sparring partner fees, coaching fees etc taken into account. But he did it to keep himself active. And that ultimately got him the Saudi fights. Ruiz should be doing the same thing. Foght anybody just stay active.

    Agree on all points. Parker taking the Joyce fight is all risk, no reward. If i was managing him I would look to fight someone else. But...I guess with the money the saudis are putting up he's probably not looking to turn things down. Gee, Ruiz must be kicking himself not being active.

    I'm 100% certain Ike was a juicer. Tua vs Tyson was the fight we missed out on in the 90s.

    That's pretty pathetic from Hrgovic, especially considering he'd be getting a decent paycheck from Mr Al-Alsheikh.

    With how things are stacking up at the moment I have this funny feeling that Tyson Fury is going to pull out of the Usyk fight with some little injury and "generously" give the opportunity to his mate Parker. Then Fury will be free to make the AJ fight for huge money.

    Boxing thread

    Yes Whyte is easy money for Parker unless he's juiced to the gills which I have my suspicions of. But Parker deserves a fight like that where he'd stylistically get to look like a killer. After building some great resume fights he needs one where he can really look like he's dangerous and I...

    Honestly I hope the Saudis put some money there to do away with the rematch. Think there are more interesting fights out there for both guys. Zhang-Andy Ruiz. Zhang Wilder. Zhang Frank Sanchez. Parker Whyte 2. Parker Usyk if he wins against Fury. Parker Hrgovic.

    Btw I think Parker's punch resistance has been gone, probably since the Whyte fight. I know Zhang is heavy handed but I also saw him wobbled by Keane a few times. Think he should be careful how much longer he fights on.

    That's amazing. Thought the fight was over after the third round tbh.
