Harsh yellow. The game’s gone soft.

Reminisces of Jacky Pallo and his fore arm smashes’

Although a Palace player did stick one on the nose of a Bompey player this afternoon not picked up by the ref or VAR

I quite like Steve Bunce. He has an interesting voice - you know it’s him talking even if you can’t see him.

He is correct. I have to admit to getting into boxing properly during lockdown. Went through and watched a load of old fights and heavyweight fights were happening at a canter. Good ones too.

Fury is obviously a huge contributor to people getting fucked off with the heavyweight division. His constant bullshit just means he’s a blocker more than anything else.

If he just came out and said ā€œUsyk is all wrong for meā€, I’d have a bit more respect. I think the entire world knows that Usyk can do a winning boxing job without actually beating the fuck out of him.

Dillian Whyte’s failed a drug test, so next week’s fight with AJ is off.

Derek Chisora won a snooze fest on points.

Good right hand but 7 rounds?
Joshua wins not sure it meets the gushing of tge commentary team

Not sure that this is so gushing

I think Dubois was very hard done by in the fight with Uzyk, to the extent where I walked away in disgust.

The only thing that anyone gave him was a puncher’s chance.

Don’t think it was a low blow.

Dubois ia getting called a quitter and he probably should be unified heavyweight champion.

Well well well.

I’m surprised the ā€œmismatchā€ at the weekend hasn’t been mentioned yet.

I’ll admit it. I was going to buy it but got pissed on Saturday afternoon and ā€œnappedā€ until abou 00:40 on the Sunday, by which time it was all over and I’d saved the money.

I’m glad I didn’t watch it, even though some are already calling it the greatest professional boxing debut in history. Difficult to disagree on watching the fight. Everyone expected Nganou to get battered. Instead he battered a very ordinary looking Tyson Fury and should have won the fight.

One can only assume after the ā€œno man born from his mother can beat meā€ comments from Tyson himself that Francis is an ornate, articulately created piece of sentient, bastard-hard origami.

After tonight not sure that we’ll see Deontay Wilder in a boxing ring again. He was outclass and outmatched by Joseph Parker.

Lost on points, some judges didn’t even give him any round!!

AJ splattered Wallin

I have seen a better atmosphere at a Salisbury & District Legue Division 7 football match than sportswashing are putting on in Riyadh.
And fvck watching AJ they’ve got their timings wrong

A decent technical fight Zhang Parker.
It almost made a Saudi VIP look up from his phone
