AlimOzturk Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Top guy is Tyson Fury. Was delighted for him and donating his entire fight purse to charity is incredible. Guys been through hell and back and to come back to the pinicle of the sport in what is really his first proper fight is an amazing achievement If he isn't given the sports personlaity of the year award it would be a travesty almost as big as him not being given that decision. Think if he had a another year and better opponents under his belt he wouldn't have been knocked down twice. Still feel he had a lot of blubber and alot less muscle mass. Looking at him against Kltichko he isnt as sharp but still almost beat Wilder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlimOzturk Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Amir Khan V Terrance Crawford looks like it will be happening. Khan will get Ko'd once again as the boy Crawford is an animal even with the weight advantage in Khan's favour. Doesn't deserve that fight if it goes ahead. Should be fighting Kell Brooke and the winner of that gets the shot a Crawford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last I heard was Khan was insisting on hydration clauses to limit Brook's weight gain after the weigh-in. Brook would hammer him but just wonder how much the previous injuries to the eye sockets can impact his mindset. Khan is so fortunate to keep getting top level fights.

jack D and coke Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Bizarre scenes here. Guy reckoned he wasn’t getting paid enough and done this as a protest. Probably nowt to do with the fact the guy looked like he’d knock seven shades out him. Efe Ajagba looks like someone to keep an eye on too. https://eu.usatoday.com/story/sports/boxing/2018/08/24/curtis-harper-walks-out-ring-heavyweight-boxing-efe-ejagba/1091817002/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both guys are absolute granite and I can see it going 12 rounds unless it’s anything like Chisora v Takem which was the real ‘fight of the year’, then maybe one of them falls eventually. Both will be a bit more technical I think because they know each other’s power and won’t want to get into a punch for punch battle like Chisora v Takem which was old school brutal trades. I think both are top 10 heavyweights. Fancy Dillian to win though and fight AJ in April. Edited December 21, 2018 by Cruyff Turn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s hard to say, Chisora looks in absolute tip top condition and like you say both are solid, granite chinned, tough *******s. I’m really looking forward to it. It’s not often you know you’re going to see a fight with two guys that are evenly matched, love a tear up and dislike each other immensely. The Takam fight was tremendous too.

I think Chisora working with Haye has done wonders for his conditioning. He was already pretty fit but looks fitter. I like both Dillian and Del Boy. Dillian managed to knock down Parker, Chisora ko’d Takem, AJ didn’t manage to do either, so these guys are both top level. Heavyweight Division is finally at a good level but I still don’t think any of them except Fury could beat AJ, even then that would go the distance.

I actually think both these two will trouble AJ and possibly both beat Wilder. I see next to nothing in Wilder other than stupid windmill punches. He can dig obviously but Fury danced around him all night until the last round but just has no power to take anyone out. Chisora or Whyte land it’ll be a different story altogether. Agree with you in that I like both guys, Chisora is finally looking like he might fulfill his early potential and Whyte I admire for the way he came up through the division with nothing, no trainers or promoters in the beginning just turned up to fights and has fought his way up and turned into a very decent heavyweight. Should be a cracking scrap?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indianajones Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 6 hours ago, Lord BJ said: Just watched UFC 232 press conference. it was a bit of a car crash for a variety of reasons. Jon Jones keeps repeating ‘the grain of sand defence’ and complaining this issue should never have been raised. Not a good look, particulary when you can’t say the measurement category and Dana White is telling him he won’t answer questions as he was digging a massive hole. Jom Jones was pretty rattled at various points. He asked for a reporter to be removed for a question he didn’t like and then basically acting like a petulant child. I hope Jone gets beats at the weekend. As talented fighter as he is, it gets harder to root for him with every controversy Jones is a cheating junkie and his treatment of that reported was horrendous. Hope he gets ended tomorrow.

cosanostra Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 Did you guys listen to the Novitsky podcast? It was trace elements of the same chemical event as he was already suspended for. You can't suspend the guy again for something he's already been suspended for nearly 2 years for. The guy is a moron but the evidence suggests he hasn't done anything wrong. This time at least. I also thought the reporter who looked like Mackenzie Dern was trying to provoke him and got the reaction she was looking for. He was too dumb to rise above it.

Tazio Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 I read the report on the latest one of the Fury family having his first fight. Well done I thought, then I read the bit that said his opponent had a record of 116 fights and 103 defeats. How is that even allowed to continue as a career without the authorities stepping in?

cosanostra Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Let's face it, he'd struggle to beat many of the top 10 Lightweights now. He could stuff takedowns (sometimes) at 145lbs when he could cut an insane amount of weight and be giant for his division. He can't do that now against 155lb guys his own size with proper ground games. There's also no way on earth he gets back to 145. The guys are even bigger and better wrestlers at 170lb so what choice does he have? Chad Mendes took him down easily at 145lbs. He's great fun to watch but he's been shown to be one dimensional and flawed. Even strikers at 155lb like Al, Poirier and Holloway I'd expect to beat Conor. His hunger has gone and he knows he's easy meat for wrestlers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambojay84 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Just a negotiating tactic if you ask me, he really doesn’t need to fight anymore as his whiskey is flying off the shelf and his brand image hasn’t taken too much of a hit. His next fight could ruin everything he’s done up until now. If you ask me this is all smoke and mirrors for a mega fight with Diaz nearer Xmas time. He will make so much from that fight that the outcome would be irrelevant as this is the one fight the fans want. Everyone would be buzzing that the trilogy is complete and the result of the fight would be almost secondary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosanostra Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 2 hours ago, Lord BJ said: McGregor being investigated for sexual assault. Has come out in press, have been twitter rumours for a while. McGregor is best retiring, he doesn’t need the money, and this way he keeps a bit of a mystique about him. However, for a variety or reasons he never going to be be able to cut it at championship level in the octagon again. However let not pretend he wasn’t a top level fighter who made UFC history, whilst promoting the shit out himself and the UFC. Guy isn’t stupid getting punched in the face by some of the most skilled fighters in the world isn’t the best idea when your worth a 100M. Also sounds like might need a bit of time to sort out some legal/family issues. He was probably the best bantamweight of all time. His ability to cut vast weight, recover quickly and maintain a ferocious punch was like nothing ever seen before at that weight. He smoked Poirier, Holloway and Aldo and those 3 are still excellent fighters. At lightweight, he only fought twice. He did beat Eddie Alvarez to become the first ever champ champ. He then got absolutely destroyed and made to look pretty amateurish. He beat a natural LW at WW so they could fight with no weight cut but lost one as well. When he lost, Diaz was ranked about 10th. If he is retired, only his time at 145lb is really remarkable. Eddie Alvarez was pretty good but nothing really special. He only really beat RDA who is elite on his route to the belt and got well beaten by Cowboy. Looking back, it's hard to really rate Connor in pound for pound terms due to his lack of ground game. He was a big lad who was exceptional at cutting weight and keeping his power. Against guys his own size, still elite but less impressive.

Where once he used to be humorous he just comes across as nasty/racist/prejudice. I do wonder if he maybe ends up in rehab in the near future. Started to really notice the racism and sexist comments since the Mayweather fight.The guy needs to get motivated and fight or sink into the distance on the whiskey money.Fighting Khabib again should be a no no he needs to get a few W's.Fighting a Pettis , Cerrone , Gaethje.I don't agree with UFC though his fight with them should be main event not co as it's him that will sell the ppv even without a title on the line.I do agree with Dana though if he wants part ownership stump up the cash.
