Re: Hamzah Sheeraz vs. Liam Williams | TNT Sports - 2 December 2023

williams was also dropped multiple times and repeatedly hurt by andrade, who is a high level fighter but not a puncher. he took a lot of punishment. then the kd fest vs eubank, even going down from jabs. maybe he had weight problems, but he's fighting at that weight again here. it's all about timin...

Tommy Fury allegedly getting 4.5 million pounds. Janibek getting 400k dollars and Gualtieri 300k dollars. That's a middleweight title unification. Mental

I think Williams may be a bit shot now. I would love to see him get one last belt and call it though. Great fighter and very entertaining.

Re: Fabio Wardley vs. David Adeleye - Who wins?

What’s the point fighting without belt? Surely not because it’s taking place in Saudi. Shouldn’t matter. Yeah hopefully the BBBoC see sense and don't strip Wardley if he wins.

Re: Who do you want to see Chris Eubank Jnr fight most?

Eubank Vs Cullen would be a good scrap but I'm not sure it would be a big marquee fight which is a shame as I would rather see that for some prestigious belts against a decent fighter in Cullen, rather than him smashing up a retired welter

In 87 it looks like he won the heavyweight ABA title, against Henry Akinwade. He had some nice skills and looked like he could have a tear up if needed. I don't think he turned ...
