lol this whole 5min segment on BT now (Debois doc report) is coz Hearn suggested to IFL that some reports of injuries from camp are exaggerated. Why is Warren rising to it?
This was painful to watch, it should be avoided at all costs, and that's coming from someone who actually enjoyed watching Rosado vs. Jacobs.
The domestic scene in Britain is about the only thing I get passionate about in boxing these days. I'd actually like to see Johnson and Buatsi fight and then the winners face each other. We have a good set of LHW guys in their prime atm. Yarde was never too good. This would have been, by far, his best victory. As it is he lost, and what is his best victory? There isn't one, it's a round against Kovalev. I'm a stickler for seeing a British prospect fight for British, Commonwealth and European titles before challenging the elites. Any British fighter who doesn't do that, and starts running their mouth about how good they are will always rub me up the wrong way. But the whole Yarde being the favourite, Yarde being the A side, it just infuriated me. Arthur is poor to watch, but he's humble, he's northern and he knows his current level. That for me goes a long way.
Agree. Only yarde and his corner is to blame for thinking they were winning big the whole time. Frustrating of course cause he could have fought like in the 12th and get him out. Congrats to arthur but hes not great to watch
Is Tunde the biggest fraud in boxing? What a clown, an absolute joke of a "trainer". For what it's worth I had Arthur winning by a couple, I wouldn't have complained if it was scored a draw or even went the other way by a round... That 117-111 was just outrageous, hopefully that don't get ignored in the aftermath, criminal.
Tunde is a pad man and always has been. He has proven beyond a doubt that he is not capable of coaching and developing fighters. He needs to leave coaching and focusing on managing fighters.
I'm up for the rematch tbh. The fight was Gatti vs Ward compared to Okolie vs Askin. And the 2nd half of the fight was actually decent.
Horrible corner. They needed a crowd to actually know that they were losing this fight. They had no Idea NONE
