not aj's biggest fan and I know it was only an mma fighter, but that was an impressive ko.
and he's starting to look like the aj that used to destroy everyone, maybe being with ben davidson could be one of his best decisions.
funny thing was fury post fight, he was blatantly avoiding talking about fighting aj, when all he has done is call him out over the years calling hum every name under the sun lol.
as someone commented on another post, I agree fury won't fight aj.
i think if he beats usyk twice he will retire undefeated.
but saying that it won't surprise me one bit if the usyk fight gets delayed once again.
if that fight gets delayed again then the wbc should be demanding fury fights a top 10 contender, but they will prob just let him do what he wants

not a fan of boxers vs youtubers, but I did watch the fight on saturday and in my opinion ksi was robbed, for me worse result for ksi should have been a draw
tommy fury isn't an elite level fighter and I think would struggle badly at brisih level let alone world level.
he's just living off the fury name.

You won't catch me watching any of this circus but I know Tommy Fury is pretty poor.
Lawal v Chamberlain tonight for the British Cruiserweight title. Tommy Fury would lose to both, quite convincingly. I'm not sure he'd win the English title, let alone British.

Didn't watch it but if that's what they want to do then it's OK with me as long as they don't call it boxing. Call it something else just not boxing. If it was boxing everyone involved would have their purses and licences suspended by the board.
My nephew was telling me last night that Tommy fury is a proper boxer. Aye son so was Freddie Flintoff.
Don't mind if this circus continues just don't call it boxing.

People pretending to be boxers. There used to be a saying "You don't play Boxing" and now everyone is 'playing'.

not making excuses for dubois because overall that wasn't great performance from him, and I am not 100% sure where I only watched it on my phone, but it did not look like a low blow that put usyk down. will have to watch on a bigger screen again.
could tell at the end dubois wanted out, he could have beat the count if he wanted to.
but wanna know your thoughts guys on this low blow thing
1.) 27 Aug 2023 09:38:59
watched it again on bigger screen, more so the accused low blow, did not look low to me, and usyk was down for ages.
even noticed when warren post fight said get it up on big screen, when they did it went silent in the crowd.
by the sounds of it now, they want a rematch
2.) 27 Aug 2023 12:22:25
Shot was borderline, really depends with the instructions the ref give before the fight, usually they do that in the ring just before the bell but I never heard it. Anyway, shot to ke looked borderline and Usyk definitely milked it. He didn't break any rules as u have to 5 mins but the shot didn't even hit him clean on the balls.
I've no interest in seeing the rematch, Dubious was not in the fight at all and at the end it looked like he give up again, he wasn't stopped or knocked out he just took a knee.
3.) 27 Aug 2023 15:16:10
In real time it looked very low, but the replay to me shows it to be a legitimate shot.
I think Usyk gets up if he's counted and I think his insane ring IQ gets him through the round. I don't think there is any real controversy here to be honest.
4.) 27 Aug 2023 22:26:47
he most likely would have got up if he was counted.
one thing I must say though after watching it again was I think usyk was a bit over the top with his complaining about low shots throughout the fight.
5.) 27 Aug 2023 23:04:55
It's something Usyk has always done to be fair, he just doesn't like body shots lol.
6.) 28 Aug 2023 11:20:12
Later on Saturday night in America on the Anderson card, Efe Ajagba won after his opponent kept hitting him low. Watch this fight and b4 the first bell u will hear yhe ref saying the top of the belt is the line, anything under is a low blow.
23 Aug 2023 21:41:07
not sure how accurate the information is but I read somewhere the other day that there is no rematch clause if dubois beats usyk.
and that takes me back to my theory from before that if dubois somehow gets lucky and wins, then sometime in the new year or next spring, he will be handed to fury, fury wins retires unified.
if I could find a way to bet on that theory I actually would stick 20 quid on it lol.
1.) 25 Aug 2023 10:55:03
Fight will be easy to make. Well unless Fury offers a 90/10 split which expires in the next 5mins. Lol
2.) 26 Aug 2023 17:31:42
Entertaining the idea of Dubois winning is like entertaining the flat earth theory. It's so unbelievably futile that they may as well just put a UD loss on Dubois record now.
If Dubois wins, I will become a woman.

was at the fight tonight for my nephews birthday, first time watching aj live. firstly I have to say I liked the look of johnny fisher.
not saying he's going to be an elite level fighter but I can see him being in some exciting fights.
i was expecting a lot more from mckean in his fight.
on to the main event, tbh hellenius looked shattered after a couple of rounds imo, and I think it was only a matter of time before he hit the deck, which aj needed because there was a lot of booing throughout that fight.
the thing I have noticed a lot with aj these days is, when he hits a good shot he doesn't follow them up, where back in the day he would just finish people off.
if this wilder fight happens, I can see wilder getting rid of him early, within 3/4 rounds.
now finally onto the worse part of the night, and that was ksi and connor mcgregor chatting absolute garbage lol
1.) 13 Aug 2023 12:30:37
Watchd it on the drink last night so would need to watch it again but from what I remember Joshua looked terrible looked like he had got the head punched off him eventhough Helenuis wasn't hitting him. Was a close enough fight until Helenuis started blowing out his back side.
Good knockout had a 5er on round 7 10/1.
Mcgregor looked and sounded off his nut. But the worse for me was listing to Tony Bellend doing the Dazn commentary, honestly embarrassing. The ultimate fan boy, was so cringe.
Agree Wilder destroys Joshua next.
2.) 14 Aug 2023 18:51:16
tony bellend, definitely the biggest aj fanboy, don't think i've seen someone so far up someone's backside lol.
well done on the bet mate
i'm going to stick a few quid on wilder to do aj in rounds 1 to 3 or 1 to 4.
i honestly think it may not even go 2 rounds, wilder will flatten him.
3.) 16 Aug 2023 11:21:35
Cheers mate, glad you enjoyed the boxing.
Don't want to sound to harsh on Joshua because Helenuis was awkward and a late replacement but didn't think Joshua looked good at all until the knockout. Knockout was good and he could gain some confidence from it, but I agree Wilder lands on him and takes him out early. Joshua should just go after him and make it a heavyweight version of Hagler V Hearns. Lol
4.) 17 Aug 2023 00:55:31
it would be good but I can't see joshua really taking it to wilder, especially not early on. but maybe just maybe joshua could even get wilder out early because I was thinking today that wilder sometimes swings and misses a lot and if joshua can land a got counter punch and rock him it may possibly be different.
but I still believe wilder will take him out early, main reason being I think joshua will be a bit worried to engage early on and could be a bit gun shy.
and we all know with wilder, despite all the swinging and missing he will land at some point lol.

i don't think dubois will either
but I had a theory on if he gets lucky and wins.
and that's although dubois is in warrens stable, they are hoping he wins and in no time they will set up the dubois/fury unification fight because that way fury/usyk will be dead in the water, he does a job on dubois and retires as unified champ.
i may be wrong but again it's just a theory lol.
