Richard Riakporhe vs. Fabio Turchi | Sky Sports - 11 June 2022

[gregregegg]

Ok time to fornicating move. He has beat a bunch of domestic/euro level guys. Surely they can get him a title shot asap. Then a move to heavyweight before he is too old.

[margaret thatcher]

exactly.

3.5 years ago, he ko'd tommy mac

now he just ko'd a guy who tommy mac beat

he's in the same place, and at going on 33 it's time to move on. he's being pushed hard now, as one of sky's leading fighters it seems, so should have the capacity to make it happen

[Blueprint]

Hmmmm I'm really starting to worry for sky and bt boxing. I'm not sure what's going on, but there's been a massive dip in quality.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Riakporhe said he’s one of the best CW’s in the world.

Sickener of a body shot by Riakporhe to finish Turchi, whipped the left hand under the elbow, Turchi left wriggling in agony, first meaningful punch he threw

[Ruthless-RKO]

Watched all 9 fights and watched 9 one sided fights

Jones, TKV, Ryan and Lee looked good; against poor to very poor opposition my mum might look okay against.

Riley knocking out his 40 year old part time opponent then celebrating and looking like he’s just banged out a British champ within a min not a great look. Get him in with Jake Paul for all I care. Ksi v Logan 2 chief support.

Price has a nice southpaw style; again lack of power is gonna lead to a boring 18 months of watching her. She’s already rated in the top 15 at welter. Would watch her against Campbell Hatton… could be a war.

Kongo did a similar job to Benn but Benn did it 2 years ago and at 23. I doubt whether Formella would win a British title on his best day. Forget Benn for Chris… Ava or Ekow in a cross roads fight. Marku would be fun. How he makes welter is insane he’s huge. Proper deontay legs.

Riakpohre threw a punch and stopped his man with a half shot to the body. Insane power… but we learnt nothing new. If his next fight isn’t for a world title that’s pretty shoddy; he’s 33.Makes sense for Okolie v RR but will Hearn let him fight on Sky? No way Richard is fighting on DAZN.

Makubu next makes sense. Another southpaw and doesn’t mind travelling and Richard probably hangs him out. Then up to heavyweight to fight Parker

Am I the only one that didn’t know Kariss and Price are fornicating?

[Dioufy]

Chelli v Brown.. too powerful and hit too hard to deter brown from his normal game plan. Couldn’t deal with the angles and powerful looping shots that come off a surprisingly good jab. I had it pretty one sided 8-2. Heffron or len Clarke for the British next logical step. He’s a good watch.

Anyone see the clip of Jimmy Lee bubbling after beating Ricky Starkey?

[Ruthless-RKO]

Riakporhe called himself the new body snatcher.

Yeah.
I don’t think he’s maybe the smartest lad out there; but he looked decent last night.

Who was the ref who was so Irish that even Travellers may need subtitles.

Funny story regarding him.
I was at his debut and my seat was right next to the platform where they do their ringwalks and I got there early in an empty arena. No one giving a shit about the early fights. Jimmy gets introduced and I suddenly get surrounded by 25 plus travellers and an 8 year old told me to get up from my seat and move away. I couldn’t understand the accent so I was having a moment where I’m thinking do I have to bang this 8 year old out to get respect here. My wife realised they were travellers before I did and duly whispered it in my ear.
I was at the bar 18 seconds later and bumped into the Erazer. Nice guy.

[margaret thatcher]

kid sounds like a twat

[Dioufy]

Would u fight an 8 year old traveller?
Not for me that one.
