    Glass Jaw Rahman could barely walk the last time I saw him.

    He now knows with complete confidence that he can take Usyk and it's all been smoke and mirrors.

    The shame of this is that I have seen some of his Youtube work and I think he is excellent. He should be able to develop a Carl Froch-like second career. I guess the field is saturated.

    He needs to fight the winner of Oquendo v Charr if he wants to be taken seriously.

    Tua trilogy in NZ.

    Undercard: Shane Cameron vs Monty Barrett, or Betham, either would do.

    At the rate Floyd ‘No Money’ Mayweather is making financial enemies everywhere, we will sadly probably see a similar story with him over the next ten years taking several beatings selling his record when random exhibitions don’t pay the debts. It’s sad when fighters need to carry on long after their ability is gone. Hopefully Rahman will find an equally shot to bits old opponent to make enough money. When you’re north of 50 you have no business getting in there to compete at any sort of championship level, even 40 is already pushing it if looking to compete with those in their physical prime. Hopkins was an absolute freak but he was fighting consistently living a ridiculously clean life.
