What a belting scrap this Fitzgerald v Fowler fight

Cracking fight and well deserved win 

Fowler at the wrong weight methinks

Aye there’ll be more punches thrown in the stands than in the ring.

Rose is in the best shape I’ve ever seen him in. Just had 8 weeks in Arizona at a training camp. 

Cant see him beating Fitzgerald mind, Points his only chance.

Devistating knock out win for Loma.

Crolla looked in a bad way at the end

Know it’s a payday etc but I’m really not comfortable with that fight even taking place. 

Awful match up that doesn't do anything for the sport.

I know it's a payday, and Hearns not going to try and put him off but Gallagher should be stepping in.  Crolla's style which got him a belt is exactly the style that would make Loma shine (even though he doesn't need anyone to help do that).  It's not as if Crolla had a punchers chance.

I’ve said on the previous page couldn’t see it going past 4 or 5. Crolla is a durable fighter but not even close to Loma’s level.

He really needs to call it quits now, there is nowhere for him to go from here. 

I didn't even know he was fighting, nor did I know it was on free sky

Khan next week ain't getting 20 quid of my hard earned, either

The sky card next Saturday is also poor.  Dave Allen headlining, he’s funny on Twitter apparently so means he can headline.

Defo taken a turn for the worse on Sky with Hearn trying to break into America.

To be fair to Khan hes probably one of the few boxers that you’re almost guaranteed a cracking with. 

Bunce was on radio 5 last night

He was questioned about folk who don't accept Khan as a very fine fighter

He nails it with his answer

Khan has never ducked anybody. Moving up to fight Canelo!? WTF?  Hats off to Amir. Also, he'd beat that Yorkshire gobshite with a hand tied behind his back. And further to this rant............ Hearn is a cunt.

Only 2 things let Khan down, a suspect chin which he can't help & an ego which he can. He will start well & probably win the 1st few rounds by boxing clever then will get involved in a slugfest & get chinned. 

Can't see Khan lasting 3 rounds tbh, he's a brave lad, but he's going to get sparked out.

AJ’s next opponent, Miller, failed a second drugs test. Needs a new opponent for June 1st - I’ve offered my services to Eddie Hearn as an opponent

Any fighters chin in the world would be suspect getting punched by some of the fighters he’s faced. 

He should never have moved up to face Canelo. Made a lot of money, showed balls of steel and was actually winning on the cards. But that was a poor career choice for me. He should’ve fought brook at that time imo.

Hes not beating Crawford for me but it won’t be as one sided as some are making out. Late stoppage for Crawford I reckon. 

 

Anyway ,bunce said

Folk dress it up with all sorts of shit, but it's vile, old fashioned racism

 

As gonzo said, it's not his chin, its his defence that's suspect

And the folk who have sparked him out, can bang

And I've decided, I'm watching it

Miles cheaper than blackburn

Went out to Vegas for Canelo fight, told my Mrs he had a punchers chance. I got interviewed for Granada reports saying exactly the same thing.

Camera stopped rolling, interview fella asked if I really believed what I’d come out with? Na, it’s a 5 day piss up with the lads -he’s no chance.

crawford though, I give him a chance of out  pointing him

If it goes past the sixth, I think you may be right sir.............

Tidy win for Brian Rose. Sets up Fitzgerald nicely. 

Full card here if anyone’s arsed haha

 

Shame the way it ended but it was only going one way.

He needs to fight brook back home and call it a day. 

 

 

Aye, at the Reebok

For nothing
