Tommy Fury vs. Olajide William Olatunji & Logan Alexander Paul vs. Dillon Danis RBR.

I started watching at the end of the Slim v Salt Papi fight ( I had no idea who these people were) saw Slims rather entertaining after fight interview.
Then we had the farce of the Logan Paul fight where Danis got disqualified for trying to take Paul down with a Ju-jitsu move

The mini riot in the ring was the most entertaining thing of the night for me.
Then the main event which was an intriguing but awful watch as a boxing match. KSI seemed intent on bouncing around then throwing a jab and a right and hugging Fury. Tommy evidently seemed to struggle how to deal with this, but did just enough to win for me.
KSI then had a tantrum claiming he was robbed then when out of the ring and on the presenting stage decided to kick the red backdrop out of frustration

I think people should see the event for what in my
mind it is. ‘An entertainment spectacle’. I am guessing all the fighters were paid well.
I bet the PPV numbers were very good.

I await when Jake Paul v KSI is announced. That is one of the biggest fights in boxing in terms of PPV numbers. Not many fights could top that in terms of numbers.

 

There's a middle ground. Good up and comer real fighters could learn a thing about mass marketing watching these circus fights. The Paul's and such have blew all the billionaire elite promoters out of the water by building their profiles entierly off their own backs.

 

Okay, I've watched it back.

KSI - Star jump, star jump, star jump, throw a wild right hook, miss, hold and repeat for 6 rounds.

Fury - Didn't throw a jab, was unable to time KSI's predictable attacks or avoid the clinch.

In summary, it was awful to watch on every level, both boxers and referee stunk the place out. Reading my score card back it just says "Send both of these fighters to the Hague for crimes against boxing" If I had the choice, I would wipe the whole of October from my memory if it means I don't remember this 'fight'

 

But how did you score it ?

 

Me Too

 

In terms of the fight as a boxing contest it was an awful bout. I don’t care much for the ‘this is nonsense/joke, destroys the sport’ etc comments. It doesn’t offend me, ultimately boxing itself isn’t structured in such a way to allow itself to grow like a UFC, albeit it’s a far, far better product when done right. These guys are just using boxing as a vehicle to settle their own petty scores and make coin, I just parked it there.

Scoring the fight in some ways was pretty easy. Personally don’t have a problem with Fury winning. If you give 1-2 to KSI because he lunged in with bombs, then Fury won 3-5 it’s who you had winning 6. Personally think KSI was horrendous style wise and he’s the one who should have been deducted a point for holding.

 

I had the first couple for KSI, I think the third for Fury and the rest I gave them all 0-0 rounds as I don't consider it boxing.

 

the annoying thing about Tommy Fury is that he’s good enough to scrape past youtuber level, but too crap to dish out the brutal beating or knockout that someone like KSI is begging for

 

KSI is the promoter. He knows he's probably got enough energy to jump around in his awful style for six rounds and avoid getting knocked out, but any longer and he'd tire and probably get slept 8-10. Probably not against Tommy Fury though.

 

Danis treated this clownshow with the respect it deserves. Hopefully this kills influencer boxing for good after the inevitable Jake Paul v KSI match.

I will say I genuinely enjoyed the “Walid Sharks v. Deen the Great” fight. Back and forth, heart, and the fellows actually displayed a half decent level of boxing skill.

 

Only decent fights were Deen The Great vs. Walid Sharks and Slim vs. Salt Papi. The rest were terrible.

 

Lol it’s YouTube he’s known for but I get your point. KSI showed signs of AJ after his loss lol

 

They are friends. Maybe AJ taught him how to handle defeat

 

Watch a bit of the youtube coverage of the talk sport coverage of the "fight" Fascinated by the reaction of the bald guy Adam ..he looked bored to tears.

 

Seems rats scurry back
