Cruyff Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 That was Wilder as good as he could be v an under par rusty Tyson Fury and he still got leathered. I don't think anyone can beat Fury, he's massive, strong, powerful, top boxing I. Q., quick and he's naturally fit despite having the body of a man that lives off beer and pies. He's a great character and champion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusk_Till_Dawn Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 There were eras where Fury would have won little or nothing but to give him his due, he’s built this career from next to nothing and he’s miles out in front. Joshua was manufactured to have a career as good but he’ll be remembered like an over hyped Amir Khan. He and his camp deluded themselves into thinking he’s unstoppable whereas one more defeat and he’s completely done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's made his money and has a partner and kid(s). Getting smacked in the head like that is going to have a negative effect on his post-boxing life.

Boxers and fighters in general, have a very different view of risk and they have a lot of self worth tied up in being the ‘baddest man’ on planet. i hope he retires and enjoys life. Alas I suspect he continues on as it’s a gravy train for those close to him Past boxers have a long and sad history of losing everything. I watched a Roberto Duran documentary and Iran Barkley was on it and I googled him to see how the rest of his career had gone. Bearing in mind he was a 3 time world champion at 3 different weights and beat Tommy Hearns twice he ended up homeless and living off assistance. Also the sad story of taking any fights for money near the end of his career and blemishing his record. He lost his last six fights which were over a span of only 8 months. A lot of these guys aren't the brightest and live in a world full of sharks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of these guys aren't the brightest and live in a world full of sharks. I watched a programme with Nigel Benn and basically he said a lot about what goes on. When Benn was initially undefeated and flying he attracted a crowd of hangers on and was also introduced to some really dodgy characters no doubt from organised crime. Once he lost his first fight these hangers on disappeared and moved onto the next target. I guess it must be hard for some of these boxers to get themselves away from this.

Im not sure we ever see him fight again. I think we will. 6 month UFC suspension but I can definitely see him fighting at heavyweight for the title before he retires. It’s debatable of course but for me he’s the best UFC fighter to grace the company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read that Josh is keen on a fight with Crawford but I've also read that promoters are worried that that fight doesn't make good money. Crawford doesn't do good figures when it comes to PPV buys, apparently. Undisputed, undefeated champ vs Undispiuted, undefeated champ is the fight to make in my opinion. Relatively easy win for Josh. Would be smart to let Crawford age a couple more years before picking him off. I think Josh is brilliant and needs to find a way of becoming big in the US. To be fair he can't do more than what he already has. I genuinely think he will surpass Ken Buchanan by the end of his career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually guys who have learnt their trade as amatuers are more technical and better boxers for it when they become pros. Defo needs to start getting big fights in America though.

SuperstarSteve Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I don’t think Taylor will be fighting Lopez anytime soon. Only 3 weeks ago in an interview he said Lopez is not on his radar, he has his plan and teo isn’t part of it, granted he did admit he would be open to fighting him at somepoint. Lopez v Haney. is the one to make for me, Haney has a legit belt around his waist because lomachenko handed him it instead defending against him. Haney v Lopez ends the undisputed debate.

SuperstarSteve Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 AJ’s interview last week on IFL was quite odd. No wonder Eddie Hearn didn’t let him do interviews often. After stating he would never step aside and avoid Usyk, He done a complete U-turn suggesting if the money was right to step aside he has to look at it. That has led to Warren contacting Hearn to make it happen. Both promoters have confirmed if they can agree on a number he will step aside. Saudi have contacted Warren as they want to hold the Usyk v Fury undisputed event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cosanostra Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 I had a look at the image he posted on social media. It's a single slice of an axial plane CT or MR run. I can't tell which from the image. If it actually belongs to him (there's no way of knowing that it does), there's no way that he could or would be allowed to fight with that. It's a significant traumatic injury. Training, running or even lifting his hands above his head would be painful as hell and there's a risk of perforating the lung. It would be incredibly stupid to hide the injury and attempt to fight. I didn't watch the first fight between Paul and Woodley but I saw the moment when Woodley cracked him then fannied about for the rest of the round. I know T-Wood is washed and low volume output is his thing these days but it looked highly suspicious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst he hasn’t exactly set the world on fire in boxing he clearly has far more experience and pedigree than Paul and should have won the fight. It is a huge purse for this stage of his career as well and puts his profile out there big time. Plus, being the one to beat the shit out of the arrogant youtuber must be tempting. I therefore think the injury is legitimate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
