    Yeah it was a one off but I would back Hunt to KO SBW if Sonny wanted it

    Unverified but possibly very big news @MidniteProwler

    Oleksander Usyk may have gone back to his slick haircut he rocked for the 2012 Olympics.

    Enormous if true. I wouldn't want to be AJ or a man sitting ringside with his Mrs.

    SBW is apparently on Jake Paul’s list of potential opponents. LOL I doubt he goes anywhere near SBW who is a giant compared to JP’s usual blown up retired MMA fighters.

    About 9 minutes in Hearn mentions he is having a card in Australia in late august or september.
    Mentions a couple of names aswell.

    Sounds like a pretty good card Hearn will bring out here

    Hope we get to see more of the Russian Kiwi Andrei Mikhailovich. Looks to have some talent in the 2 fights i have seen of him and doesn't seem to have any fear. if his last name was Tszyu he would probably be main event.

    Nice little vid by Sugar Ray Wheatley on Ron Richards who has to be mentioned in Australia’s best no?
    Had quite some domestic rivalries and twice fought Archie Moore.
    Beat Gus Lesnevich before he won the title.Knocked him down brutally.
    Seemed a great character.
    Anybody got anymore to share?The short clips of him fighting show a beast.

    Also Sugar Neekz hopefully pits a belt around her waist.

    Not as much build up as it deserves G-Man.

    It's a shame. It should be a great event.

    Where the hell did Daniel Lewis go? Haven't heard a peep out of him since the Fundora loss, which I thought h performed admirably in.

    We often wonder that ourselves mate.

    He just went off the radar one day. No socials, no media.

    I think he decided to give it up and focus on a career to support his young family.

    Still to this day gave Fundora one his toughest fights. Who has gone from strength to strength.

    I agree.
    I have the full Wilder-Fury 2 telecast and decided to watch the whole thing at the time and this was the first bout if I remember corrctly.
    Lewis showed his grit there.Left the fight with the thought of “Cant wait to see him again”.
    My sister said he isnt a bad looking fellow haha.
