cosanostra Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Looks like all welterweights are just waiting for Shavkat to take the belt. He looks very well rounded and he'll probably be champ this time next year. He looks like he'll be hard to dislodge. I'm curious if Chimaev can ever make 170 again because I'd love to see those two fighting. Probably at 185 if they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still seems to fly under the radar Shavkat.Would much rather see him fight Edwards than Belal. I also still feel folk underrate Edwards though and the guy is a ****ing good fighter. Looks like Islam fancies being double champ though so that will be interesting Edited December 21, 2023 by vegas-voss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KG1874 Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 The boxing Saudi card will be worth a watch this weekend. Would be good if wilder or AJ take an L, or even both that would be a laugh but I can see wilder KO and AJ UD win. I’ll be suprised if Dubios doesn’t beat miller. One thing I don’t understand is how AJ is fighting on TNT when he’s on a strictly dazn only deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even after the worst provocation, he came out and calmly took the lad apart. That's what background can do, his family helped him put the emotion aside and allowed him to avoid being tripped up. That's pretty powerful with his ability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cade Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Hopefully two entertaining fights to follow. Expecting Wilder to score a KO. Don't know what to expect in the other fight. AJ's been scared of getting hit for a few years now and he's a timid fighter these days. Having said hat, he's had a few "last chances" and has managed to come through them. Tonight is another one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KG1874 Posted December 24, 2023 Share Posted December 24, 2023 That’s the final nail in the AJ v wilder coffin. Bubble well and truly burst. Wouldn’t even put wilders performance down to Father Time. Him not releasing that right hand was more mental than physical. I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t retire. AJ looked the best he has in years. Can see him becoming 3x champ in March against hrgovic which could set up AJ v fury or Usyk rematch end of 2024 to Draw a curtain on this era but I would not be surprised to see winner of fury/Usyk retire with all the belts. It might no have been the most talented bunch but during class era it was bad and other than Dubios Moses Itauma and Anderson the next batch of talent isn’t looking good.

Lewis was starting to pick him off towards the back end of the fight and he would have caused permanent damage to Vitali had it not been a stoppage. It was a legitimate stoppage and clear win for Lewis. Despite a late change in opponent and Lewis clearly not fully fit and past his best. Dinny get me wrong Vitali put on a great showing and on another days stops lewis. Edited January 6 by AlimOzturk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KG1874 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Thought AJ would’ve went the IBF route, suppose it makes sense if he topples francis that’s 2 of fury’s opponents that he struggled with. Sets the narrative for a AJ/fury showdown. am still puzzled at why fury never thrown more than 30 punches in a single round when he fought Francis tho he better be back to his usual output for undisputed fight against Usyk.
