    Kickboxing in the 90s & early 00s was on fire.. Hug was my favourite K1 fighter.. but
    Rob Kaman is the GOAT .. Ignashov & Cikatic are underrated.. they don't get mentioned as much as the ones you listed and they should do they were f****** beasts

    From the fighting skill and ability, yes.

    But it seems he never recovered mentally from that lost to little Kaoklai in the fall of 2004. He was never the same afterwards.

    It only made MMA look bad to people who don't understand how different MMA is from boxing

    OK points taken, the master of none is inaccurate. I do watch mma, the ufc restarted before boxing after lockdown and I've stuck with it although I'm not gripped by it. I find the wrestling/grappling bjj etc more interesting to watch than the kicking and "striking".

    Joshua has a better chin than Fury. Klitschko was not able to stop Joshua with his best shot. On the other hand.... Fury is floored by amateurs and cruiserweights. xDDDDD

    Fury is way too easy to be hit. Joshua would massacre him.

    Fury's punch resistance is diminishing.

    Joshua OTOH hasn't faced fire like that for a long time.

    Think you have to have some semblance of a chin to get up from a Wladimir Klitschko right hand, one of the biggest punches in boxing history.

    I was a big supporter of him but it starts to get silly what he talks .

    I hope Fury & Usyk have dictated that they fight no later than midnight Saudi time

    3am is a joke

    Francis also REALLY cares about fighter pay and rights. It's not about the money with him.

    Actually, he might be full of ****, now that I think about it.

    The ring walk was about 20cm longer on Francis side and the locker room was also more dusty which inhibited Francis breathing. Not to mention the ring walk music which was played at a slightly higher decibel level which decimated his concentration.

    So are you saying Wladimir Klitschko couldn't punch, fool?
