Welcome to the UK
Pissed and coked up.
Exactly, more coked. Whenever I go to a decent sized show, the queue for the cubicle is three times the queue for the urinal.
I've seen a group of about 8 in a circle inside the toilets (not in a cubicle) at Royal Albert Hall taking turns. smdh

Couldn’t stay awake last night but watched it back this morning, Dave’s assessment was correct but still seemed a bit hard on himself somehow. Great effort at the end of the 9th particularly, Makhmudov looked like he’d almost ground to a halt there, unless he was anticipating the bell.
Mak is surely easy pickings for AJ though, that right hand will find its way through in no time.

Easy work, he's probably the most stiff, wooden opponent they could find for Joshua, so expect it to be made if Joshua fights on.

Makhmudov slow, plodding and has his faults but his 1/2s are top drawer, really punches through the guard, him knocking out Joshua wouldn't surprise me all that much tbh

I think it would suit AJ down to the ground, stiff, upright

Just shows how often people get robbed!
I thought Belotti won.
Good effort from Dave. Makh does have fast hands.

It was more to do with how the MC announced the cards.
Completely the wrong way of announcing majority decision.

Ok, it's hardly news, Allen isn't world class.
However he is a good fighter, a popular and exciting one at that.
Fast Car knows he can sell tickets, so why not look at Brit, Commonwealth and Euro titles, would still be amazing achievements

Always never understood why he never went down that route.
He didn’t win the commonwealth didn’t he?
He probably feels the boxers aiming for the British belt are below him. Would be step downs. I mean they could beat him.
European is one he could surely go for too.

I don't think Allen will sell like that again. He had great momentum coming off the Fisher win and people thought he could win. The crowd was incredible. It was like a peak Hatton crowd, seriously. I suppose none of the undercard boxers fans leaving and everyone cheering for the same man helped.

Allen can come again, he got on a tidy run, exposed Fisher and got his big fight with Mak. He wanted to test himself, but a well schooled fighter with a decent jab will always give Allen problems even one as slow as Mak.
I'd like to see Chisora/Allen.

Should have beaten Lenroy Thomas for the Commonwealth title , had 2 chances but wasn't on a going day

Makhmudov, kept it straight, kept it simple and just fired away at range, bashed allen up

btw, also a good night for big mak conqueror guido vianello, who was brought in as the opponent on the usa dazn show but stopped unbeaten canadian alexis barrier
guido would be a good test for moses. hes a tough guy with some decent mobility and skills who can offer some things for moses to think about.
Guido a great fight for Moses so he can compare against Torrez Jr but I think Guido wants Joshua.

Allen had the Hatton atmosphere last night. Shame Dave got no head movement and didnt hunt more to the body. Arslabek is Bog standard probably be a good opponent for either AJ or Moses.

Okolie is probably just bitter because he's too shit and boring to ever get a fight with AJ.
You can guarantee if there was a chance of him getting a payday with Joshua, his tongue would be sliding his way around AJ's ring piece immediately.

Adeleye should be his next fight. Get the British belt.

Adeleye and Allen are almost the same fighter stylistically. Adeleye is physically more powerful. Allen has the better engine. Both are quite sloppy, and fairly basic in their attack.
It'd be a good fight.
