what do you guys make of that?
to me that was dodgy judging. no way was was that 116-112
i had fury winning 115-113

I actually had it as a draw but could see it go either way. There was no way he won it by 4 rounds. Would have understood it either way if it was by a round.

i will watch the fight again just in case I missed something
but no way that was 116-112

Thought Fury had done enough myself tbh. Although it was very close with a lot of close rounds.
4.) 24 Dec 2024 17:53:19
Watched it again (this time sober) Usyk won it. Was close but he won it. Still not sure of Fury's tactics, comes in heavy but boxes on the back foot.

guys what's your thoughts on ben whittaker?
a lot of people on social media basically saying he quit and was found out.
i don't really know what to make of that, but from what I saw, I think cameron was well winning and should have got the decision IMO.
yet again, more dodgy judging lol
1.) 15 Oct 2024 09:01:21
Thought at the time that he was looking a way out of there. The replays didn't show his ankle twisting or hitting anything but u never really know, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt but only if he rematches Cameron next.

what do you guys make of that result?
personally I had it as a draw.
no way was it 116-112 IMO
also hope frazer clarke recovers well. the way he looked after that was scary.
wishing him a speedy recovery

Think a draw would have been fair.
Agree I hope big Fraz is OK, that was rough. Thought Victor Loughlin should have called break when Fraz fell into the ropes, give Wardley abit of a free shot.

big congratulations to dubois, dominant display.
i honestly think now, all that's left for AJ now is a mega money prize fight, and that's most likely to be fury, ( if he loses to usyk again)
or even wilder, which I have no interest in whatsoever
Turki Alalshikh looked like he had the hump post fight, didn't look happy at all.
1.) 23 Sep 2024 22:24:04
Honestly Turki is slowly finding out the hard way that 'plans' in Boxing rarely ever come to full fruition. He really should have known this as his first Saudi show was Ruiz vs Joshua II, a fight where Joshua had suffered a shock defeat in the first outing.
I like his ambition but he's a brainlet when it comes to understanding how the sport works.

anyone giving dubois more than a punchers chance against AJ on sat night?
all people i've asked says he has no chance at all.
i would like to see a dubois win, but his clumsiness will be his downfall in the fight.
1.) 18 Sep 2024 22:28:51
I'm personally 60-40 in favour of AJ winning.
Dubois has shown that he has far superior stamina to AJ and I think it's fair to say his durability is probably better than AJ's too (going off Dubois' last two fights), so if he can withstand AJ's power and draw him into a brawl, I think Dubois stands a very good chance.
However, I suspect AJ will do everything he can to box like he did against Ruiz (2) and Parker. So I am expecting a largely boring fight, that possibly leads to an AJ stoppage.
I will say that as we have got closer to the fight, my opinion hasn't changed I still think AJ will win but I am less convinced of it than I was in the previous thread.
2.) 19 Sep 2024 17:39:17
I would give Dubois more of a punchers chance. I am favouring Aj to win but that's all down to the amount of right hands Dubois took v Hrgovic but surely they have corrected that.
I think Dubois has a better chin, better work rate although would say aj has the better ring IQ and probably more power.
Think the first few rounds will be a battle of the jab with neither taking much risk until the later rounds.
3.) 21 Sep 2024 13:54:03
Although I said above I think the first few rounds tonight will be a battle of the jab, I don't think that should be Dubois' game plan. I think if it's a battle of the jab and he stays mid to long range, joshua will go up and down stairs with the jab then start to land the right.
Think Dubois should put the pressure on him from the start, slipping sliding and throwing hooks. Brings the danger of Joshua's uppercut into play but I see that as Dubois' best chance of winning and hope he employs these tactics as it will lead to an exciting bout.

bakole looked good last night, a lot of people I know thought anderson would win on points.
i think he could do some damage to the top heavyweights.
as for the miller fight, did I miss something?
no way was that a draw, miller won that in mu opinion

agree with you on fury possibly running out of steam mate.
i think usyk wins by late stoppage
22 Sep 2024 12:56:42
as I said in my post, I think if fury loses to usyk him and AJ will have a mega money fight
or the other possibility could be wilder for AJ lol
one thing I am seeing now which I don't like is a lot of people are still talking more about how AJ, showed courage etc, yes he did but all the talk should be about a brilliant and dominant display by dubois.
i also don;t understand how AJ has rematch clause being the challenger
oh and agree with you on liam gallagher, sounded really bad.
27 Aug 2023 22:26:47
he most likely would have got up if he was counted.
one thing I must say though after watching it again was I think usyk was a bit over the top with his complaining about low shots throughout the fight.
27 Aug 2023 09:38:59
watched it again on bigger screen, more so the accused low blow, did not look low to me, and usyk was down for ages.
even noticed when warren post fight said get it up on big screen, when they did it went silent in the crowd.
by the sounds of it now, they want a rematch
