Horrific match making , what do they expect with a 4 stone weight difference??? That’s as bad as it gets I’m afraid !!

Clarke's raging

New kids on the block boxxer taking up the matchtroom mantle of serving up horrible mismatches, and running with it.

Now what do we get, is it a woman’s boxing match ?

So predicable it’s untrue !

Trouble is I don't blame him , it's the matchmaker and promoter and sky that want calling out .

Rubbish, but not Big Fraze's fault.

Can't Shalom see beyond 'unbeaten'? Seems not.

Johnny’s got the solution thank god, we need an unbeaten opponent from overseas. Oh wait…

What I don't understand is if they can't find reasonable level fighters because there's nobody out there surely that must apply to sparring ?

The women's fight can't kill the atmosphere at least...

Tasha pts anyone...?

Never seen anything of Berghult but I’m anticipating she knows her way around a ring.

An amateur friend of mine sparred Frazer and Richard Riakapore on last week.

Arlo’s sparring will have been more competitive than what we’ve just had to watch !

Wow ,massive weight difference there .
Can you see what I'm saying tho Mickey , it's like there's a glut of lower level, but tough have gumshield but will travel types and it must be hard to find quality sparring too.

Joyce fought Lewison in a scheduled 10 rounder on his pro debut, Clarke no spring chicken either, the blueprint was there, unnaceptable really, glad to see Clarke is livid

A lot of them use amateurs.

Glad to hear Joe Joyce getting a mention....no comparison to the utter sh1t being served up for Clarke...and other heavyweights to a large degree.

Joyce was prepared to fight much, much better opposition from the off and gets very little credit.

Tasha shouldn't be @ this weight div whatsoever..

Decent fight this....

Another sub amateur level womens fight described as though it were hagler hearns by the absurd Smith.

Yeah - it was a watchable 6.67 round fight nothing more.

The depth is so much more shallow than at Lightweight, Light-Welter and Welter, so it was the only way she could win World titles.

It is ludicrous that a woman at World level at Super-Featherweight/Lightweight but who isn't elite at it, can jump up multiple divisions and find it relatively easy to be pretty dominant at the weight.
Although keeping in mind Claressa Shields could make this weight and would destroy her, and Hanna Gabriel's is she didn't feel like being a Heavyweight anymore would probably do the same.

Totally agree, boxer not at fault. Should be paid
