Do you know how to watch picture in picture?
Mate I I don’t even know what that means sorry. I’m from Lincolnshire we’re still getting our head around the opposable thumb
Haha. It's like when you watch YouTube, click on the thing near the top of the screen and the video appears in a small window at the bottom of the screen, so you can watch it while using another web page.
Sounds like two bald men fighting over a comb... :lol:

I mean he beat Isaac Lowe :lol:

What happened to McGregor.

I mean I didn’t even have him beating Kash 𝑭𝒂𝒓𝒐𝒐𝒒.

He should have lost that one too.
I agree Ruthy lad, thought Farooq did enough that night, was a good fight mind.

Wonder if Smith practises talking dribble and shit in the mirror or does it just flow naturally

Funny how being bald improves your ability to stay indoors, and get better with technology :lol:

Not a jab at you mind you, I'm a rapidly balding fellow myself. Not quite fully bald, but well on my way.

We’re so lucky to have such an insightful commentator as Adam Smith in this country, always able to tell us if a fighter is likeable or not

Great start from Josh, but he’s looking a bit fallible here, some of those wars catching up with him

This Main Event has been excellent so far. I think Taylor's class will tell over time, but he can't ever get too comfortable with this guy. Every time he thinks he's got it under control he gets clipped.

I said Queensbury made a mistake signing Taylor to a multi fight deal.
He should not be struggling with a faded domestic ex champ.

God knows why we’re making this a 12 round fight. It’s not like Josh needs any more wear and tear than absolutely necessary.

It's for some kind of bs WBO global or whatever title. I'd reckon that's why it's 12.
