🄊 The Boxing Thread

I am watching Boxing.
I saw Eubank Snr fight in Dubai (and on a very strange night out explained Bullfrogs to him in Buddha Bar Dubai many years later)
Which was the last Boxing I watched.
I really want to be Joyce & do his thing to designers & stockists of Sofas
And the cvnt who invented that fvcking Burger

Joyce wins after Dubois takes a knee for a tap on his damaged left eye.

Meanwhile I just hope that neither of Mike Tyson or Roy Jones Jnr do damage to themselves later.
Knowing what we do about Dementia I cannot see that fight being healthy for either of them

That will piss Frank Warren right off.

Good.

Joyce boxed clever, he’s got no chance against Fury or Joshua though…

'taters, or rather ex boxer 'taters, calling Dubois a coward for taking a knee when he got punched in his eye … but harsh IMHO

Yeah nerve damage probably- Wise kid saved his career

Mike Tyson v Buster Douglas doc after the fight was superb. Find it Watch it.
Title was 42-1 ESPN Films

Or fucked it. I watched Henry Cooper versus the then Cassius Clay the other night. He got cut above and below the eye. Kept on fighting until the referee stopped it.

That’s what referees are there for. If the referee stopped the fight, fair play.

All Dubois did tonight was prove Mike Tyson’s maxim. Everyone has got a plan until they get punched in the face.

Seems he is in hospital with severe damage to the orbital bone around his eye.

He’s a fucking boxer, not a flower arranger.

Joshua v Fury: Demand for fight intensifies, 10 years on from sparring session -

AJ might have to vacate the WBO to take this fight at the intended time. Might not be a unification bout.

I’m sure that some compensation of the monetary sort to Usyk will stop that happening…

I think AJ’s camp are already on record saying they’d vacate if this becomes an issue.

Probably to get that monetary payment to Usyk down :slight_smile:

You talk as if it were all just about the money. :rage::rage::rage::rage:

Sadly, you’re right.

Well there’s that, and the fact that Usyk might get battered.

Also, he might be better off waiting for the WBO to be unified with the other belts before pressing for his mandatory.

Some Brit v some Spaniard popped up after the football.
It was close & a good fight until some Interns gave the scores.
I’m calling them as Interns as in inexperience rather than the alternative which Eddie Hearn almost used.
Jingoistic flag waving pratt’s
Good fight good win tarnished by ludicrous scoring by the judges.

Why is the attractive knowledgeable female presenter wearing pyjamas when live/not on Zoom?
