    I love the saudis paying for this, but this time slot sucked. Right in the middle of a workday where I am. I hope this won't be a trend.

    Think about the loyal Europeans who stay up until 6am to watch Charlo and Haney run away all night.

    AJ was not landing flush shots on Usyk. Yes, Usyk has an iron chin, but he also has complementary skills to avoid big shots and reduce their impact. Francis, unfortunately, took them flush without protection. Not sure anyone can survive those types of punches.

    Lol thats ridiculous. There are plenty of guys that can crack in MMA, not to mention the impacts from other striking tools that boxing doesnt have.

    Now either you lyin' or Tyson's great aunt's cousin be lyin'

    She tol' my sister-in-law's aunt that she was sufferin' from ingrown toe nails an' bunions.

    An' she gonna be right as rain come Christmas time, either this year or nex'

    So no cause for concern here. Tyson jus needs to spend time with his great aunt till she's back on her feet, so to speak.

    Then he can begin trainin' for his nex' fight.

    Big respect to Big Joe, never thought he had it in him, I'm happy to eat humble pie here for such a nice guy, well done Joseph Parker

    Nice KO for AJ but let's not get carried away, fury won't be stood square in front of AJ with cement boots on if they fight.

    Great win for AJ there though, total destruction.

    Boom!!

    Yeah props but this is what I've been saying decent boxers don't stand right in front of you waiting to be hit

    I know, Pugs, mate.


    I Re-watched it not too long ago when I was having a bit of a GF binge.

    It's good to refresh the ol memory with old fights. I can still see some things that I missed before.

    :)

    What a performance by Chamberlain and shame for Nick Ball

    Chamberlain in particular just seems to get better and better.

    And what Fury will do, tell us pls?
    Will try to hug AJ, right ? The same AJ that was "terrible" in the clinch? The same Fury that is the best "clincher" and so strong ? The same Fury that Ngannou was throwing around ? How that goes against AJ ? Ngannou couldn't move AJ an inch in the clinch.

    What's Fury going to do against AJ again? Tell me the story about it?

    Same Fury that was dropped TWICE against Ngannou and was battered badly in the 8th. Same Fury who all he could do was hug and hug and hug to Ngannou. The second KD in the 7th round was clean as a whistle, and wasn't counted. There was also elbow against Ngannou.
    All of Fury dirty cheating won't be allowed against AJ.

    Stylistically Fury doesn't have even 1% chance against AJ. AJ is going to eat him alive. And Fury is a chinny guy, and Ngannou had a granite on his head, you see how that turns out ?
    AJ will KO Fury so badly, he will wake up in the hospital.
    This is a mismatch.
