    Let’s hope Usyk gets a fair shake on the cards, Fury seems to be the Saudi love child.

    Its annoying how quickly these British (or Irish) fighters throw British boxing fans in the skip as soon as the Saudis flashed their money.

    British boxing fans supported these guys through their whole career but now they don't want to know us. Furys the worst for it. Always going on about how great Saudi is and how bad he had it in the UK (he had to pay tax and queue in airports!!!!). Watch them come crawling back cap in hand when Turki loses interest.

    Oh come on. They’re risking not just the health of their body but their mental health / brain. You’re gonna get salty they want to fight where they’ll get PAID, with no bull**** about the payments, with none of the Don King type bull**** of your-purse-is-x-but-I-keep-half-of-it?

    Can’t hate on a man for looking out for his own future, for his family’s future.

    Yeah DAZN shows Turki in Fury dressing room exchanging compliments with whole Fury's family. Absolutely pathetic.
    A wrong result or corrupt referee will destroy what is left of boxing reputation.
    This is F**** Undisputed. Make it 100% fair *******s.

    Clever boxers sometimes like to have a lower KO percentage as well so they're more likely to be given opportunities under the assumption they can't hurt the A side.

    They should play a track of a raging crowd or something, takes abit of the fight watching it in silence.

    Quality early shout out on this kid, CST80.

    I vaguely remember the original post and thinking, "Who in the **** is this guy?"
