[Cyclops]

whats next for Wardly?

Efe? Huni? Joyce? Vianello? zhang? parker? hughie? chisora? Moses...? Fisher...?

Or grab the euro with Oleksandr Zakhozhyi....

Whoever it is, I’ll be tuning in. F*cking hell. That was brutal.

[gregregegg]

Wilder could never box, but he found the shot. Wardly is the same. he will always look very beatable, but he is always a chance at finding the shot.

Not saying wardly punches as hard as wilder. probably not even as good a boxer... but wilder made it to world champ for years and years. wardly probably wont make it there, but he will always be a punchers chance.

[Kilburn]

Can't believe we're about to watch THE best fight in boxing

Just hope it lives up to it mate.

[mickey1975]

What I love about Wardley is he throws hard shots, puts everything into his punches and that's why he gets KOs

His attitude is what makes him special.

[margaret thatcher]

wardley just had a draw against clarke last fight, getting a bit ahead of ourselves. sensational win but plenty of guys in with a good shot or better to beat him. and i say this having rated fabio and picked him to beat clarke both times

[Delta Jay]

Thats not his jawbone, your jaw is not where that dent is. He's smashed in the side of his skull.

I’m not a doctor, I thought that’s where the mandible joins up. We’ll find out later cos I’m not gonna start googling it now

[funso banjo baby]

Nelson suggesting the two gutter toilet fights wilder or chisora

Utter pants

[Boxerbeetle]

Didn’t like the way Fraze raised his left hand when slumped on the ropes to guard himself from an imaginary punch several seconds after the action ended.

Reminded me of that heartbreaking footage maybe a year or so ago of the fighter who was throwing punches at an imaginary opponent while facing the wrong way

I dunno, I thought he was just moving his hand instinctively to where his face had been smashed in.

[smiling assassin]

great ko but looked like the same swinging fabio to me, he can beat most guys but aside from the likes of usyk id still take the neater work of someone like agit over him

I’m with you. Darren barker said it in commentary where these well schooled amateurs come unstuck against fighters like Wardley because they throw unorthodox shots. In all honesty Clarke will be annoyed with himself for getting caught like that

[Gnome]

Scariest KO I've ever seen.

He appears to have punched a hole in Clarke's head with the final punch. Genuinely horrifying.

It was a bad KO, but he was up more or less straight away.

The worst I've seen was perhaps Wilder-Liakhovich, that was horrible to see.

That’s why I was surprised that Clarke seemed to be looking to land something big early.

[Counter-puncher]

Anyone catch Barker saying no way Bert would be going in the fight if he was injured?

No,Darren, we’ve never seen anyone do do that have we!

[MightyWarrior]

That was scary as hell but not as bad as it looked

Frank confirmed it’s a broken cheekbone

poor big Fraze that was a stunner. Free shot in the end

His wife will want him retired after back to back trips to hell

[keithmoonhangover]

Clarke's a free agent now. Ouch.

Let’s see him at European level with someone fresh.

[garethhop]

An hour til the next fight now lads. Can't start til 11pm.

[Kilburn]

Looking at the way Beterbiev trains, and the specimen he is, I’m thinking that a meniscus tear for him may not be quite as serious as it could be for other fighters. The guy is an animal.

Footy Manager it is then.

Vianello or Anderson on the Uysk-Fury card.

[gregregegg]

They really need a floater fight on cards this big. fvck it they should grab a couple people out of the crowd and give em $100,000 to scrap

[Delta Jay]

Broke his cheekbone

Yeah that seems right. I’m poking myself in the face trying to guess which bone is where here

[Delta Jay]

Liam Smith being uncharacteristically pragmatic about a man who beat him and a man who beat his brother. Fair play.

[Kilburn]

Buatsi hoping that Bert scores a career ending KO on Bivol, while fully ruining his knee at the same time.
