    Are you ******ed? One of the judges had AJ ahead after the 9th round? Are you kidding me bro? How is that even possible? If AJ would have won the last round somehow it would have been a draw on that one card. Of course they tried to rob him. Look at the scorecards and how they looked in detail before talking such stupid ****.

    They went all out earlier, going for an idiot OD, Bellew shared the screen with Conor Benn.

    How did most have Richards winning?
    Rather, which source are you getting your confirmation bias from?

    And again. One day when I see Connor Been on screen I will rewatch him getting knocked out by Avanesyan (When he stops ducking him)

    Yeah, exactly. Some boxing fans call every decision they don't agree with a "robbery. "

    I don't think Buatsi is ready for Bivol yet, needs more fights to tune things up. He looked to have issues from the outside in spots but Richards has that reach, and Buatsi also fights in spurts, but there's a lot of potential too. He could use more of that jab, has a great right counter, and tremendous work inside. Needs more work at this level to put it together. Fights against either of the Smiths would be bangers.

    I enjoy the fight too much that I don’t come here to read the scores until the fight end. I had Buatsi winning 8-4 easy..

    I've no shame in it. I really like Joshua Buatsi. I remember him turning pro in 2017; a few months after I started watching boxing and I always thought I'd keep up with his career. Despite missing his entire amateur career, he really feels like the first guy I've watched straight from the start. I remember hearing stories about him being extremely generous with his sponsorship money and just all round being an all-round nice guy. It's refreshing to see someone from South London who isn't caught up trying to act like a gangster.

    What's more is that he's gradually stepped up his opposition and is fun to watch. Calic was fun; Bolotniks was awesome and I could've watched another 24 rounds of the action we got tonight. I hope he continues to take good fights if he doesn't get the Bivol fight; I felt a little let down as a fan by the Vlasov situation.

    This would be another tremendous fight. Zurdo can exploit the pace with pressure, and Buatsi has the punches to trade inside and take out the body of the taller fighter.
