Huge uppercut for the knockdown and rapid combination punching for the finish by Itauma, opponent though....

That finish reminded me of Deontay v Audley - expect Moses was actually landing.

They should run a sweep on the worst opponent on a Warren card.

Let’s see if Yarde’s no-hoper is even more pathetic than this fat dosser.

What a great performance that was ! :clap:

Obviously it's a meaningless, record-padding KO1 for a HW, but..,
You gotta beat what's in front of you and you gotta finish - Moses did both like a seasoned pro.
It's what Tyson woulda done in 5th fight.

I swear Yarde loves that Mayweather pad work more than he actually loves boxing itself.

Hasn't he always had the big horizontal scar on his left ?


Still didn't look great though above it , maybe that's why he's come in so heavy .Try and blow him out quick because he knows they won't hold up .
Yeah that was it.
Eye panic over - C'mon Joe..! :box:
This is Joe :box:
This is Zhang :bag:

Moses is 18 he doesn’t have to learn from every fight. Part of what you do at 18 is pad records, and get highlight KOs.. Could probably try squeeze him on 2 more cards this year after that run out.

Now the yards opponent, that’s a legitimate disgrace.

Yarde actually steals a living outside of his failed attempt at world champions.

Agree.
Moses ticked a box there. Long way to go obvs, but he's a great prospect and improving... :box:

I put my notice in and a week before the cut off, a girl called me and offered me that deal until December next year.

Not a fantastic atmosphere though hopefully when main event comes and Sweet Caroline is blasted out
Small looking ring.
It is, and I'd think the smaller ring benefits Joyce.
That's probably the thinking behind it, though I imagine both teams agreed on the ring dimensions. I mean Zhang and Joyce are hardly going to be floating like butterflies at 280lbs+ and neither him or Joyce rely on their fast feet as a route to victory.
