I tweeted Hearn about this at the time and he said he got more money from uk tv money and US PPV too the US purses are rarely the full amount they get due to tax reasons and stuff I read somewhere afterwards in something local in the Welsh news he got close to $600k by the end of it I do not recall...

I like it when he sits backwards on his chair. Who the eff started that shite anyway? AJ? :doh: Max Kellerman does it on Face Off and seeing how Gloves Are Off is total rip off everyone has to do it there too. He is a knob but Floyd turned his chair round on one of them and sat on the chair like a ...

Jiro Watanabe went from world champion to Yakuza gang member.

Where does that British mentality of binge drinking etc come from, out of interest? Genuinely curious why it seems so different to other cultures. The only thing I've seen similar is when Scandinavians come to Liverpool for the football and have a skinful because it's so much cheaper than at home f...

Conor was in court in Ireland today on a speeding offence. Theres a video on twitter of him leaving court. One of the journalists asks if he has been threatened or his life in danger and you hear Conor say "Come and get me". If Conor thinks he is king of Ireland and untouchable this whole ...

The rumour about his "large gentleman" was supposedly started by himself. lol

Most hated British boxing and MMA journalist by his colleagues on the journalist row is what I've heard.

You mention that quite often.

It needs to be celebrated.

Did he pay for your taxi in the morning ?

Dana is a very driven, smart guy who is loaded and has insane connections in Vegas, NY, the whole world tbh. This could be a game changing moment.

Yeah but they would rather not watch women fighting. Bit to much for them unless they are fighting in mud or jelly....right lads?.... FFS.... I think women's boxing has been so badly run and promoted in the past. The UFC may have got lucky with Rousey but they knew how to promote her and women prope...

This is terrible if you like a few sports. I'd want the football which they have nicely spread across three channels. Cricket, boxing and NFL. Which is potentially another three channels. So this is probably going to be costing me more than what I pay now. Great. They've already said there is no pr...

There's a lot of people who think Conor McGregor has a chance... Skip Brainless, who appears all the time with Stephan A Smith, states emphatically that Conor McGregor is the world's greatest fighter and has underrated boxing skills... If that clown can be so stupid, so can many millions of others....

Not really no. South Koreans tend to only get patriotic with sportsmen and women who are 100% South Korean in sports they like. Baseball players and soccer players rule the roost. For women Olympic gold medalist figure skater Kim Yuna is like royalty. Boxing ain't that popular its never really recov...

By the accounts I've heard he is an arrogant bellend to deal with unless your a boxer, MMA fighter or promoter. Alot of other journalists in boxing and MMA don't speak highly of him. He has done a ton of MMA TV work which really does not suit him either. Coming across smug and arrogant whilst mispro...

His wife has already given him a pass for this "they must have drugged him. He just drank too much".

I'm guessing all the money he earned help her get over it.

Be interesting how this is viewed in 25-30 years. "That did how many views Grandad ?".

This will kill any future MMA/Boxing type clusterf**k/extravaganza. Floyd, Conor and the UFC will all makeout like bandits of course.

We will all struggle to explain this mess to future generations.

Work buddy of mine in New York I asked if he watched the fight was like "fornicate Klitschko, I never watch his fights. Whose this Joshua again ?.....oh right gold medal...yeah yeah.". He did enjoy it after I hassled him to watch the replay. This is a guy who watches alot of NY boxing live...

I know "humble" AJ and that but I don't think it was fake. He likes and respects Wlad too much. These Gloves Off shows don't always work. If there is no genuine animosty between the two it just comes across lame. Just some blokes sat at a table on chairs the wrong way round having a chit c...

This is kind of nuts when women do 5 minute rounds in MMA just fine.

It depends where they live, if they are supporting an extended family (parents, cousins etc), if they have ex wives and most importantly how they day to day spend. Some boxers try and live a Mayweather lifestyle without a Mayweather bank account. They should invest in low risk apartments/housing and...

David Haye has labelled Tony Bellew a 'bully' and I wonder how much truth there is in this? I don't know Bellew myself and sometimes I like him and sometimes he irritates the hell out of me but I do enjoy watching him fight. My point is that I've heard (from my best friend's wife's family who are f...

Its all facken political correctness gone mad. Back in the day a poof was probably a nonce too. They all at it those guys right. Can't trust em round kids. Was in the bible all that being wrong. Crazy lefties saying you can't call a paki a paki too. Bloody Guardian readers. Lets get rid of all them ...

Hopkins.

Of course good old Johnny Nelson.

Who lost his first three fights as well!

A UFC fighter once used Do You Really Want To Hurt Me by Culture Club. It was years back but pretty sure it was Tom Lawlor.

I can see Canelo gutting it out and going the distance by the skin of his teeth.

Then getting a BS SD which everyone thinks is insane. Then he never fights GGG ever again.
