    Grant was doing as well as he'd done his entire career when he ran into Takam.

    Smarter, stronger, and less intimidated, Grant had become a solid Blevel contender again......
    Takam destroyed him.

    Perez took everything Mago threw at him....countered beautifully like a rhinoceros version of Rigondeaux....then he fought Takam and got beasted.

    Takam may not have much of a fan following, but he's defo a good fighter as good boy suggested. And as a supposed 'chin-checker' he should be one of your more likable fighters considering he's eaten a lot of leather in his bigger fights and hasn't shown anything resembling a glass mandible.:think

    How does Tyson Fury not get a crack at the WBA title yet these 40 year old dinosaurs who have beaten club fighters the last 4 years are fighting for it? smdh

    Is Chagaev a club fighter?

    How bout Oquendo? Is he a club fighter?

    Nobodies getting a crack at Wlad's WBA HWCoTW until they've won an eliminator and probably made several defenses of the #1 WBA minor title. :nono

    Fury was taking a beating but Takem got cut by all accounts. Maybe Fury "wasn't up for it though" which can happen with mental midgets.

    According to this Fury smashed him up and he reckons he seen it himself?

    Either hes lying or you are?

    So whos the bullshitter?

    Either someone eye witnessed Fury smashing Takam up or Firy was getting beaten.

    Another version I heard was that Takam never even came over.

    I will say I personally thought it happened as Fury stayed in training weeks after the Abell fight and Peter Fury made some ominous comments after the weekend ofthe scheduled sparring match along the lines of being very happy with Tysons progress and how he could take on Chisora and beat him tomorrow.

    Mayb it didn't even happen. But Fury released a lot of pictures around that date, and he looked as fresh as a rose.

    Even too much, maybe.
