But now, after a few years, I find the guy fairly funny, I get his sense of humour.. He now comes across to me at least, as a guy who is amiable and light and funny on the outside, but deadly serious, dedicated and proper humble* deep down.
Have to respect that


*as opposed to manufactured PR humble

M sure you can purchase through the NOW app. If yu have on smart tv

That’s what I thought originally, but it’s not showing on there. After doing a bit of reading, the NOW website does specifically say it’s only available via the NOW box or the stick, not on the app or via a smart tv. Ffs.

So, the best option is Usyk beating up Joshua so much, that Joshua won't be able to come back soon on health issues and use the rematch clause. Thus, we definitely won't see another series of the same fights like Fury-Wilder and there will be the Fury-Usyk undispted unification, which is much easier to make, cause Usyk isn't a pretentious hometown sucker like AJ.

Let's go, Usyk! Beat the humble, make him stumble, in his own blood Josh will mumble!

Happens a lot where a fighter struggles or doesn't look good but turns it on in the big one,he's a classy,clever boxer and I can't see him being beaten easily by anyone.

100%,some people only turn up,or more consistently at least, when it matters the most

Not a like-for-like comparison, but look at some of Holyfield's initial performances at heavyweight - they hardly inspired confidence that he'd go on to achieve what he did.

I am too James, I'm just a little disappointed in the undercard. The main event is very interesting, I don't think there is an outcome I can predict, which is way more intriguing than other PPVs I paid for.

i think he knows too much for Joshua and will be super confident,he's not just another ordinary challenger,he's a top fighter with pedigree,i'm ignoring his 2 heavyweight fights so far and think he's got plenty to show on Saturday night.
