Well that is the definition of excellence. Not winning a regional tournament.
Personally, I would say All Time Great would be a better description. But hey, everyone to their own.

Ammo Williams against Liam Smith would be a corker.

Ha ok I was describing him by text earlier to a mate as ‘reminding me of my worst nightmares of my own sparring videos, all arms and getting no leverage on shots inside of arms length and just looking fucken stiff and awkward and ugh it’s just painful to watch on a couple of levels’

Given my vociferous criticisms of Callum along exactly those lines I’m surprised he never came to mind

Doesn’t he lack Callum’s heavy handedness though, big time? And how technical solidity IMO

If that happens they gonna do interviews with random ass people in the crowd, so the next fight won't happen too early.

What about Avtandil Khurtsidze? He won his comeback fight last night. No idea if the old man can still make the middleweight limit but I think he would be a lot for Williams to handle even at 44. :box:

Don’t care if Bivol is in a mismatch he’s technically near perfect and the closest thing to Usyk with distancing and footwork and a joy to watch

I don’t mind a mismatch either, I just don’t want to watch 12 rounds of it.

Zinad looks pretty tough, surely at least as tough as Lyndon Arthur.

Have a feeling Bivol's in the mood for a statement win.

Hope so... And I hope the heavies are warming up now. The delays have been long, I've had to do chores in between :o
