    You’d have to be mad to say it was a good win

    He hardly surrendered. He took a few straight eights straight down the pipe. Most people don’t get up when AJ hits you like that.

    I’m still expecting it to be Whyte - Chisora, Haye is probably just doing a good job of squeezing everything he can out of he deal for Derek

    I'd say he surrendered. Did he look badly hurt to you when he was sitting on the floor smiling as the ref counted to 10?

    Martin quit like ***** against AJ. No two ways about it

    Now I respect AJ hit him very hard and he may have had a bad camp and carrying injuries, but he is a professional boxer and should have put a bit more effort into it.

    Exactly.

    Agreed with your card too, I gave Martin like 2 rounds I think. The last round was great fun but to declare that fight as life and death is absurd.

    I believe Whyte wins by wearing him down, by the middle rounds he’ll be shot and will get stopped by Whyte bc of his age

    Why would it "mean more"? Chisora just beat Takam by ko, and is riding high, trying to maximise his earnings in a fight that will net him more than Ortiz's whole career.
    Plus Del is ranked higher on average and has an "international" belt.

    But Wilder and the WBC say Ortiz is amaaaayzing! Must be true then.....

    Ok, I was just trolling McVey a bit but there's a kernel of truth in it!
    Del boy is actually ranked higher, WBC are propping up Ortiz's myth by ranking him so high.
    Sure Ortiz might look better but he's actually dwarfed in terms of earnings and achievements by the donkey....

    A hypothetical h2h ain't worth sh1t in the real world.
    Just saying....
