Great night

 

Saunders v eubank was superb

 

Tyson won easily

 

Gavin and skeete was conpetitive

 

Last weeks shite was £17

 

That last night was just one night of action for the cost of £12 a month. Absolute bargain.

 

Fuck matchroom and fuck eddie hearn

Just watched Fury/Chisora fight on BTS. My opinion on Fury has not changed. He is a big lump with a jab. But he did a good job on jabbing the shit out of a Chisora who was too short and too shit. Fury thinks he's better than he is. He will need more than a long arm to beat Klischko. But If he can jab Klitschko and win then fair do's.

 

Saunders/Eubank Jnr fight was a good watch. Eubank suprised me. He could go on and do something.

As a crap boxing fan who only watches "big" fights, I don't really understand the "mandatory challenge" rules. It seems to me that a title holder fights who the fuck he wants. I'd love to see Fury v Klitschko but I just can't see it happening.

The governing bodies are an utter farce mate, just completely ignore all of that horseshit. I'm not even exaggerating. It's all shite.

 

Somebody like Wlad Klitschko can effectively pick and choose who he fights and when.

Agreed I thought Saunders Eubank was a cracking fight, Eubank is so obviously raw though. Fair play for not worrying about losing his 0. He'd beat Saunders in  rematch I think.

 

Fury was good too, but it's hard to tell how much of it was Chisora being shit. Bit of both I think.

 

Can't agree with you on the matchroom stuff, or at least I can't get on board with following (or hating) a promoter. Fuck it, who cares. It's the fights that matter, nothing else. £12 a month for boxnation is good value though.

The weigh in alone was worth the journey, gives me goosebumps whenever I see it on YouTube. Paid $750 for my ticket which I felt was top dollar at the time but it's given me a memory I will take to the grave - the best sporting atmosphere I've been in certainly considering the distance.

 

Hatton v Tzsyu was special but not a patch on this, great times

Can't believe you even payed to get in.....stick with the L.A. Whites.....we haven't paid in the last 32 years.....anyone off here coming over this week for the Khan fight ?

Doubt it flying the Palestine flag in his garden didn't endear him to the Bolton public neither did knocking people down in Bolton T.C. Not forgetting the ultimate sin being pictured with the united players.

Proper shite that mate. 

 

I missed the Canelo Mayweather fight by 2 days last year. Got a few decent snaps besides the ring in the MGM lobby though

 

That video is top notch, I doubt a British boxer will ever get those kind of followings again

Anyone stopping up for the Khan fight tomorrow?

Won't stop up for it, got kids so never do.

 

Any fight with a top ten guy is tough for khan. Malignaggi, collazo, Judah, those guys were all well past it in truth.

 

Alexander will be a tough test for him, a younger, athletic guy.

 

I'll be surprised if he comes through, he's just not tough enough at the top level IMO. When his freshness and speed wears off he struggles.

Hope that Andy Lee can pull of the victory this weekend against Korobov and win a version of the world title.

 

Would set up a great fight against Billy Joe Saunders.

With you mate

 

Never wanted a guy to win so much purely based on his personality.

 

Top guy
