We really need to stop hosting fights in this country until refs realise that it is actually a contact sport. Fvcking embarrassing.

We had better not have any spoilers from the Texas show on here from anyone.
Hmmm, in that case I'm logging off for now, no chance this thread will stay spoiler free.

"Can he do this inside a round?". Why did he ask that with 10 seconds left and Love not in any trouble?

Enough of those opponents now. I know Love has recent "form" against supposed prospects etc but it's pointless now. Joshua looked effing bored to tears at times!

There's nothing wrong with him fighting this guy when he's also fighting Johnson later this month.

Hearn's fighters and it's on Sky, so Hearn still deserves credit.
Credit??? What did he do part from not show the McDonnell fight?

Rafael Love - name sounds like a 70s porn star, looks like a 70s porn star, and fights like Dirk Diggler

Theres something wrong with it when we are missing a 50-50 world title fight to see Joshua knock over yet another opponent chosen to make him look god like to the neutrals at home.

Glenn McCory does not seem to be buying into Joshua as much as before.... seemingly concerned with this shape. I thought he has shown a change in his demeanour post fight in his last two contests. He seems to be believing the hype more now.... far less humble and far less keen to learn (remember before he used to work the pads after the KO).
