    Pizza.

    When you have very little and then get everything suddenly those 5am starts and dieting becomes easy to avoid.

    Whyte looked dreadful. Even with the issues there is no excuse to come in at 19 5. Ruiz then proved it's no good. Why are they not training - burning off fat even if between championships or sat on the bench. Dillion's head looked huge tonight and my telly is only 32 inches so it took up most of it.

    Cheers bud.

    The mad thing is, I’m totally on board with that style of boxing. I don’t want to see a weight lifter try and bang someone out. I enjoy the hit and not get hit aspect of the sport, the subtle skills etc.

    The only thing intolerable about all this though is that we have to listen to Eddie Hearn now.

    Funny thing is all the experts said Ruiz’s weight didn’t matter and he’d still ko Joshua regardless of what Joshua did weight and fight approach wise.

    I agree but I don’t think Fury has any worse a chin as anyone else in the division.... Carl freak chin Froch would probably stand up to all the heavyweight’s shots though.

    I thought Fury and Wilder was quite a dull fight until final 3 rounds.


    It was similar circumatances to tonight with one guy totally out boxing the other but the other boxer having the ability to drop or stop their opponent if they caught them. The only difference is no one got dropped tonight and there was a lot more punches landed tonight (certainly more power punches).

    It is because some people want to stick with their opinion, regardless of any new information. The new info came in suddenly and massively and that should have put everyone on alert.

    Klitschko did it for a decade. I couldn’t stand it. I can forgive Joshua for one fight.

    Same way people look down on a long ball in football. It’s complete snobbery if you win you win there’s no right or wrong way to win.

    I agree. I said on here before Ruiz only won Cos Joshua allowed him to by getting careless rushing in to finish him. Before that he was schooling him.

    The Anthony Fury-Klitschko win feels similar to Liverpool defending for 90 minutes and 30 minutes extra time against the mighty Tranmere Rovers in the FA Cup final then winning on penalties.

    It was a pile of shyte

    To be fair mate, the little fatty could barely move - the current version of George Foreman had the same chance of landing a punch tonight
