I like Dacres but what do you Do with him…
He is way to good to put in with your prospects for the “English title”.
He is hard to build really, I guess you just pray he gets called mando for the Brittsh soon.

Re: Will Fury duck Usyk?
Fury won’t train through Chrissy and will be 300lb by New Year’s Day. So I think February is ambitious, my prediction is if it happens (big if) it will close the saudi season… they seemed so proud to open it, can see them making a big deal about closing it and using that to justify pushing it to lat...

Re: Can anyone at 168 and under beat Charr?
I guess it's possible that Alvarez might. If the rules provide at a fighter 168 and under is allowed to gain weight, then I think David Benavidez, as skinny as he is, could show-up at like 195 on fight night if he got on a bulk. Gotta disagree hard with the responses that said Naoya and Crawford. C...

Re: BoxRec Forum HW Top 15 ranking - Otto Wallin & Frank Sanchez
I’m back from my holidays.. give me a week or so.. Will do a complete do over. Everyone get your top 15 ready. Gonna collate all the rankings together using a points system, like Dag once did. Then we’ll have a new list. Won’t be including Ruiz, Ortiz, Wilder and anyone who hasn’t fought in 12 mont...

What do you want next for Francis ngannou?
The guy just arguably did better than anyone vs fury. He is not young so needs to keep moving.
So what next???
Fury II, wilder, AJ, Zhang, usyk?
Or step back and get some wins?
Or use this buzz to renegotiate with UFC?

Re: BoxRec Forum HW Top 15 ranking - Otto Wallin & Frank Sanchez
Fury comes back on activity, but you can place him anywhere from 1-7 after that shit show….

Re: BoxRec Forum HW Top 15 ranking - Otto Wallin & Frank Sanchez
Next one of these will be horrifically complicated…
Fury gets a bad result, nganu a good result, Parker a result, mak a result, bakolee a result, huni a result.
Chaney vs Trev probably won’t effect it next week, but efe vs Goodall will.

Re: has this REALLY damaged boxing?
The boring concert, the shocking performance, the predictable card… all bad for boxing.
This event is very unlikely to convert many MMA fans to boxing fans.

Re: Round-by-Round: Tyson Fury vs Francis Ngannou - 28th October 2023
A timely reminder that most heavyweights have 1/10th the skill of welterweights, they are just big and tough and can box a bit…
hence why a year of solid training can get you places. (If you don’t have to get in shape or learn to be tough because you’re already both those things.

I’m not even watching, just clicked this for an update… figured main even would if finished ages ago…
Did the wardly fight end 2 hours ago….? And the fury fight hasn’t started?
Because that’s a wind up.

Is the Fury-Ngannou card going to count for the Boxrec forum rankings? Even if ppl here don't think the main fight is "real" or no chance of upset anyway, there are a lot of undercard fights that could affect things. Parker fights Kean, and Mak fights Smakici, and Wardley fights too and c...

Re: Ryan Garcia vs. Oscar Duarte | DAZN - December 2, 2023
This is a good comeback fight. Of corse you take a step back from a brutal loss, but this guy is decent enough. Probably could be undefeated, prime age, decent size, active.. he isn’t a top dog by any means, but it’s a fine comeback fight.

Re: Nathan Gorman
Gorman is skilled, but has showed problems with his chin (kinda) and fitness.
Still think he can be in and around British level at times. But probably needs to get on a bit of a run a bit lower than that.

Re: what kind of shape do you think fury will come in as?
300 lb + of soft sloppy rig.
I don’t think he will put in a real camp for this. And honestly looking a bit fat will help ppv here the narrative of “fury’s taken him lightly he might get chinned” will get floated amongst mma people…
