Costanza Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 On call this weekend and had to jump on a call out, checking social media until resolved and for the Haney v Garcia fight, Garcia has a string quartet in his dressing room pre fight. Suppose that's light hearted compared to the stuff he's been coming out with recently which feels like some sort of mental breakdown.

escobri Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Found myself awake,so got to watch the fight, good win for Garcia, in what was an entertaining contest. He was a big price for the win aswell, hopefully today is a day for the underdogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn’t stay up for the fight but just watched the highlights. Never in a million years expected that kinda performance from Garcia after all the nonsense he was talking in the build up.

Diadora Van Basten Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I’m quite surprised Garcia beat Haney. Josh Taylor beat Garcia quite easily and Haney destroyed Regis Prograis who gave Taylor a much harder fight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazio Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 So the Tyson vs Paul fight is going to be an official fight as opposed to an exhibition. And 2 minute rounds which will help Tyson to a certain extent in terms of stamina. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant take any Paul fight seriously, all his opponents have either been pretty outspoken about being underpaid in there career or nobodies who could do with a payday. Youre never sure where Tyson is at with his finances , he seems to be broke one minute and raking it in the next from some clever advertising. Certainly think that if this fight is "legit" hes got more of a chance than people think. You might slow down but power is the last thing to go. Edited April 30 by Americana ..

KG1874 Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Ryan Garcia goes from hero to zero. Testing positive for steroids pre and post Haney fight. I’m due abit ae grief off the boys in the gym the night now after giving it big licks about Haney being useless not adjusting to the left hook all night.

JFK-1 Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Might be a good fight between Canelo and Mexican compatriot Jaime Munguia who I know little about aside from the fact he has a 43-0 record, can't beat that for credentials. The pundits say this guy can really pack a punch but so can Canelo, this is the sweetest knockout I ever saw. Ref didn't even bother to count him out he was so out.

Shooter McGavin Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 John Fury has got to be the biggest walloper in boxing. Headbutted a member of Usyks team, who looks about 20 years old and half the size of him. Total bully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who was no saint when he was younger, but comes across as an absolute gentleman and has a knowledge of boxing far beyond that of big John.

Tazio Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 I, for one, am totally astonished and shocked at John Fury’s behaviour. I would never have imagined a man who once served a jail sentence for putting someone in a headlock and gouging one of their eyes out could be a bit unhinged.

Not a fan of Ricky Gervais stand up but he did have a good joke about Nelson Mandela being in prison for 27 years but not reoffending since release as proof the system does work. Anyway on topic, I think Usyk wins or is robbed on points. The Fury who outpointed Klitchsko would make it much closer for me but don't see Fury being that fighter anymore. No result would really surprise me though and can't wait for this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that’s what is wrong with that division now. It’s inhabited by freaks size wise, look at the size of the boxers from the prime period of the heavyweight division, big guys but not enormous. Guys like Fury and Joshua are the kind of size that people would be astonished if they saw people that size in normal life. Way over 6’ and built like brick shithouses.
