Boxing fans are pathetic whiney little bitches, as hilarious as boxing twitter is, I wonder why half of them even bother following the sport, credit and criticism when due but there's a vast amount of people who's first instinct when they see a fight or card announced is to moan, worst pudenda
Not true. When good cards are put on there’s plenty of praise. Recently they’ve mostly been awful. So deserve the flack.

Sick and tired of Tony Bellew talking bol**cks, along with David Haye and Ade.

aj looks and sounds odd.

Now you know why 40 year old Helenius was picked.
It was announced as being a sell out. Are you saying that Hearn is lying?

Helenius is still better than Fury's next opponent..AJ may not be as confident as he once was, but is still more confident than Fury is, hence the calibre of their respective opposition.
Mate, he is 100% lying. They closed eight blocks. My buyers got upgraded to lower tier.

*If you ignore the fact that he has avoided Wilder for 7 years and has turned down Fury twice in the past 9 months.
Hi Mickey. :wave:
BigDoofus and Quiggeyg all say the same things that Dev Sahni says on twitter and in interviews 🤷‍♂️ e.g. AJ is terrible ( despite Olympic Gold medal success and winning multiple titles) and Fury vs an OAP, non boxer, is a legitimate fight etc etc. Yawn.
Find one quote where I have said Fury’s next fight Is a legitimate fight or retire from the forum as a LIAR.

No, all I want is a well matched card, 2 or 3 decent bouts on TV with no hometown decisions or poor stoppages. Trouble is we've not been getting many on TV lately

The card wasn’t bad. In theory. But the fights were not great spectacles

TBH I didnt expect to see anything along the lines of Spence / Crawford - but just run of the mill fights really .

On the Highfield Boxing pod Terry talks about rumours around Joshua and how he has to keep fighting to make sure the press don’t report on them. Does anyone know what theses allegations are ? I’ve not heard any before about his private life.

Could be. I’ve never heard any whispers about him other than he’s a moody bell. Nothing scandalous about that though.

Someone on Twitter compared Matchrooms handling of Aj to that of their handling of Eubank. Making a lot of money and avoiding the true elite in the division.

Think he means Sr, either way it's bollocks, Wilder and Fury both knocked back back the Joshua fights, that's fact, even Deontay and Tyson acknowledge that, strange there's 3 people on here who just can't and wont

Terry from Highfield Boxing retweeted it, and he's a big AJ fan. Its a good comparison.
