    nope that was 2 days before the fight. Can't believe I didn't bet on it. ****ing idiot.

    Not keen on seeing murder live on tv, thanks.

    It's very frustrating because Joyce is a good fighter who in my opinion would give Fury and Usyk very difficult fights. But against guys like Zhang and Wilder who can truly crack he is a sitting duck. Styles make fights. That was beautiful the way Zhang set that up. I saw people saying all...

    Lets get some absurdly definitive predictions for Zhang Joyce 2. Zhang to knock Joyce out cold with a counter right hook in round 3.

    Imo Foreman was the best heavyweight of all time so that's some pretty high rating of Moorer

    Dunno, I'm definitely seeing a decline. Not as light on his feet and punch output while still very good is not quite what it was e.g. in the first AJ fight (where I think he was already past his physical prime tbh)

    And Foreman was a very, very intelligent big man

    That was interesting. Thought it was a clear low blow, but Dubois still more competitive than most expected. Usyk has the heart of a true champion, looked well and truly pissed. Fair to say his powers have waned a bit though. Still doubt Fury takes the fight.

    Sure, it is a stylistically difficult matchup for Joshua, and I'd probably pick Wilder in that fight. I just don't like how it's all of a sudden become the consensus that Wilder would just win that fight without even needing to see it. Wilder has fought exactly one top heavyweight, and he lost...

    I'm not sure why Wilder has now suddenly become some great boxer or kryptonite for AJ. This is a guy who was getting outboxed by the likes of Gerald Washington. OK, he has the right hand, but elite level boxers should be able to take that away from him. It's an exciting fight.

    It's a huge fight. Massive. Yes, loser probably retires. Winner has another year left and could fight either Usyk or Fury.

    I would think it would have been the exact type of fight you'd want prior to a Wilder fight. Plenty of good rounds, a few issues to iron out here and there, and then a nice confidence-building KO.

    They're not going to take any of those fighters on a week's notice. They have a huge money fight at the end of the year vs Wilder.

    Gee that was pretty brutal to watch. Errol very brave trying to keep doing his volume punching thing while getting picked off repeatedly.

    Just having seen the weigh ins I'm kinda shocked by how much bigger Fulton looked. I didn't expect that with only a 4 lb jump

    Boxing thread

    I don't think that comparison is at all relevant. Inoue is simply a more complete all around fighter than Canelo, and Bivol also gets plenty of knock outs and has respectful power, unlike Fulton. Canelo's gameplan of late has been low output, accurate stalking mixed with very good defence...

    I mean don't get me wrong Floyd was also a master at being strategic with his matchmaking. No one can retire without losses unless they're being very selective and using the "a side b side" crap to their advantage. Styles make fights, doesn't matter how good you are if you fight everyone you're...

    Difference is Floyd had already dominated multiple weight divisions and was already recognised as one of the best boxers of his era, and was coming out of retirement for a circus fight. Fury has not.
