They're probably gonna call this if not now then very soon. That cut is f*cking bad.

Ursu should be closing the show but is labouring here.

Goes to show how bad these PPV's are when 70% of hard core boxing fans aren't paying for it

Wild boar?
Yeah given the board dont do anything about everyone else it’s pointless even getting annoyed.

Surely they will have testing for a British title fight but then again.

The Polish guys were OK but when they apologised for the language in the corner they just had to go.

Croatian from here on in
:lol: :lol: :lol:

Vaughan is tough. I like Naz on commentary

Ursu is lazy and isn't going above this level.

Looking forward to this next one. Big Tommy the Norwegian white hope against Hysa

Narvo is big news over here. 14 wins all by KO. They don't realise the level he's been fighting though

Big lump though. Should be fun whilst it lasts

TKO? Wasn't it an accidental headbutt?

I had 125 in play on Ursu by stoppage so I’ve probably had a touch there as those stoppages can go either way in terms of being stoppages or going to the judges.

Hysa isn’t that bad. But is 42 with sagging breasts. Sometimes I have to admit I prefer seeing two useless heavyweights who can punch over skilled light punching fighters

Norwegian media calling Hysa a "World Leading" heavyweight :OhYes:

A more clueless set of people in respect of boxing would be hard to find

Missed that interview. Did Kabayel say he's targeting someone fighting tonight? Jolly? Hysa?

I'd be surprised if this fight doesn't give us the most entertaining knockout of the night.

No idea what he said but Hysa is probably his first defence according to Bernd Bönte. As long as Hysa doesn't look terrible tonight.

In that case, hopefully he gets flattened. He'd be the worst heavyweight title challenger in a long time.
