Round-by-Round: Anthony Joshua vs. Alexander Povetkin - 22 September 2018

Obviously we haven't had the main event yet... but based on the undercard this has to be the WORST Matchroom PPV event to date?

David 'Girl Guide' Price retiring after 4 rounds - to hopefully f.cuk off into obscurity now - followed by quite possibly the worst fight I have ever seen in Okolie v Askin, and now a fairly dull fight in Campbell v Mendy. This Campbell fight hasn't been terrible, but I've hardly been glued to the screen either.

Bellew v Cleverley 2 is looking positively fair value compared to this.

Joshua v Povetkin had better be epic....

Yeah this has been garbage so far, worse than an average Saturday Fight Night.

Jaoshua v Takam was worse.

[Loftgroov]

Johnie Nelson thinks Bellew beats Usyk....

Wishful thinking

Puncher's chance. Bellew can whack - and everyone gets lucky. That aside, I can't see it.

[Andrew]

PoV lol

[DrDuke]

Finally it's time. Let's go, Sasha!

Hmmm, I was at that show and was pretty wrecked tbh so can’t really remember, I’ll have to take your word for it.

Gassiev and Breidis are bigger punchers than Bellew. Both would fornicate Bellew up if they fought.

Usyk beat both and will school Bellew into retirement.

I'll be getting tickets this week

It's no wonder people stream is it .
Serving up this gash , everyone knew the undercard was piss poor for weeks now.
I have always thought Fast car did a good job on the whole but this will lose boxing fans in the long run .

Yeah, I don't disagree. Usyk should be far too good for Bellew. Just saying .... "stranger things have happened"..... when a boxer can bang you never know.

[rd350lc]

For the first time in my life ever I agree with something Mr Fury has to say .

Bellew and Coldwell know they don't win the fight. They have done ever since they commentated on Usyk beating Glowacki.

Usyk is an ATG, not a crippled has been.

[Loftgroov]

Buffer - "Let's get this party started!"

Never a truer word spoken Michael. About time. Its been seriously pump so far.....

[Tony1244]

When's the fight starting?

[Andrew]

Wonder is keithmoonhangover is watching his guy ?

He wasn't putting money on this.


War Povetkin

That would be something! Is anybody beating the odds like Tony Bellew? Maybe Povetkin tonight...

Graphics in the build up look like Peartree Productions have done them

[Grilling Machine]

Whyte's on screen charisma reminds me of that bloke who ended up on BBC News live on tv when he’d just come for a job interview.

AA roadside repair man maybe .

I was thinking coach driver.

[Neil Gee]

I'm going for AJ by decision. Don't think he'll stop Povetkin.

[Loftgroov]

Queen doesn't do it for me.... I want more of Povetkin's Russian tunes. I can floss to that sh1t.

[Boxerbeetle]

Wtf is this sh!t
