    Insufferable undercard and they clearly went out their way to top it off by putting Okolie in the co-main. Just because he's a fat heavyweight now doesn't mean he's fun.

    They should have had Chisora vs Bigfoot on the under card. Would have been the best fight of the night

    I am one of the rare Bridger Weight supporters so I would love this, but I can see why he wouldn't. He probably doesn't recognise it as a legit division, and by fighting there he would legitimise it.

    I absolutely do think Cafu shouldn't be written off. He looked good last time out and he can crack. I just think Bam is on a tear and as good as everyone makes him out to be.

    We'll see. Plus, I'm Texan. So I have to root for my countryman. :D Any other Texans in here? Check in!

    Not only a terrible undercard but a disgraceful night of boxing. I told you what would happen in the last two fights and I was completely right

    "He's the bigger man, he's gotta push him around!"

    Gee, where have I heard that tactic before.

    And I wonder why it hasn't worked. Hmm... Could it be because Usyk knows how to negate that?

    Nah they just must not try right :lol:

    I Imagine Usyk fighting Parker in Saudi Arabia, and us still getting Sweet Caroline.

    They can have it behind closed doors; just them a ref and some judges. No need to inflict it on an audience or bother lugging in TV cameras.

    I'm still waiting on the day we hear it before the ringwalks, both guys pick at as their ringwalk song, and then it's played in lieu of national anthems.

    It's maddening.

    I thought so too. His eyes have been all over the place every time I've seen him.
