I wanted Ball to win but thought that felt the cards were kind. What did you all think?

The only world champion from Britain.

Ball is all we have right now.
Jazza has an interim WBA I’m biased so I’m going to say he’s sort of a champ he’s had hard fights against the odds. He’s a top fella so I’m giving him the top fella title (TFT). I’m sanctioning this as Cancer Wanker (CW) so Ball is the CW TFT belt holder.

By contrast, this has got early finish written all over it. I'm calling Moses in 2.

Two rounds at best
Whyte is gonna be demoralised by the speed and if he gets knocked down, he's probably going to stay there

I've always underrated Whyte and he's proved me wrong several times.

It's got to be really motivating to have your trainer saying "If he loses it's over". I mean why not just say "He's washed up but we're giving it one more shot because he might get lucky" at that point :KO:
That's some top psychological work that.

In over two decades of watching Buddy McGirt train fighters I don't think I've ever seen him in a winning corner. Ronnie Shields same thing.

They're the touch of death!

I thought he edged a fight that I could have accepted being a draw.
Scoring him a winner by 6 & 8 was poor, sheer incompetence or bias at its best

That highlight reel reminds me just how hard whyte hits. Vulnerable but dangerous. Moses is gonna have to be on point tonight - no risks get it done

Itauma just listed on the screen again at 235.

He’s been listed at 245 multiple times on different sources and 235 multiple times by different sources ffs.

I'm sure Moses was listed as 6'5 when he first started fighting, shrank to 6'2 at some point, and is now 6'4.5

I remember thinking Micheal Buffer was old 30 years ago. Of course I was 20 at the time.

If you had to guess you’d surely have to say 235.

I think it's looking clear that they'll make the Parker fight for Itauma if he beats Whyte. They'll make sure it's for the vacant belt.

He lost a lot of fat in his face the last three months, which is why some suspect weight loss assistance
