Re: Hardcore Fans... Honest Question?

Why are you bothered Stu? Just skip past it and do not click the play button. YouTube has a few billion other videos and I doubt you go online to complain that Aunt Susan has a 12 minute video on the perfect knitting stitch. Instead you just pay it no attention and leave it to those that want to wat...

Re: Big John Fury called out

Looked like Big John could have been in Tyson's living room but I have not seen him in any of Tyson's social media posts. I hope they have not ignored the guidelines here with him paying a visit :box:

Re: Boxing Monthly gone

Amazed any printed publication is still going, in any industry. I was in the business for 23 years, and owned a regional Cornish title for 19 years. Sold that last year thank god. Not only are printed publications irrelevent in the market place, they are mostly run by dinosoars without a clue about ...

Re: Fury will KO AJ too....

Imagine the pressers with Fury giving it the "You big stiff robot, you got beaten by that fat midget Ruiz so imagine what I will do, you big dosser, I will make you land in Eddie's lap, you manufactured Frankenstein, BIG DOSSSER!"

He will mentally rip him to shreds!

Re: Tony Bellew shares Scary photo at height of 175 weight struggle

Bellew is clearly a guy who likes his food and finds it hard to knuckle down to a diet, no shame in that and I feel that pain myself but to portray it as some huge hardship and "scary" thing is nonsense. He looks like a fit fighter and tbh the whole 175lb thing was smacks of a case that he...

Re: Fury says he will fight 3 more times then retire

Has there ever been a top line boxer who has not at some point uttered some line about retiring at X age or after X number of more fights, then just carried on regardless as if they never said it?

It is almost like a tradition now.

Re: Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury II - 22 February 2020

Fury is getting KTFO. I think you may be right. Last time, for some reason, Wilder tried to box a far superior boxer (and I think took Tyson a little lightly after the lay-off, as we all did). but this time i think will be a bit more reckless, a bit more wild and look to go absolutely banzai on Tys...

Re: Anthony Joshua vs. Kubrat Pulev - April 2020?

I do not mind this fight tbh

I think he may aim for three fights next year so we will have Usyk in the summer. IF he manages to clear these two, it clears the decks for the Wilder / Fury match up and with Hearn saying 50-50 could be fair, that may happen now.

Usyk may fight Chisora whilst waiting for a title shot. Should be a good HW test unlike Tim Spoon.

There is such an overrating bandwagon effect with trainers. Get a guy a few talented fighters and suddenly he's a training whiz.
