Dude loves fighting someone with a very flattering and padded unbeaten record. I do respect it but there is no way Hysa should be fighting a serious contender soon.
Finally this fight is going ahead, hopefully the winner can fight Opetaia early next year if he gets through Cinkara.
This content is protected Suslenkov forced Smakici to quit in the corner after the 5th round. Up till then Smakici was doing well boxing, but Suslenkov was starting to get closer firing off with flurries. Salamov stopped Kashinksy in the 2nd round. Easy win without even taking a aolid shot. Apti Davtaev won in 2 rounds. Beterbiev was in attendance and guest of honour sitting with Kadyrov the whole show.
This content is protected Lucas Browne back fighting in Germany tomorrow against an undefeated Armenian/German.
Lucas Browne got stopped in 6 rounds by Arman Khudoyan. By what I saw it looked like he gave it a good go but started taking some punishment on ropes and the ref stepped in.
Man that dude looks SOFT as hell. Goes without saying that Browne should call it a day. He's run hot and cold for a long time and this is just an embarrassing loss.
Great career crossroads fights with two 40+ year old heavyweights who still throw down. Winner gets another big fight! Make it happen.
Imagine a "super heavyweight" tournament with all of the big sluggers. Would have a freakshow vibe to it while still being legitimate. Zhang, Miller, Joyce, Bakole, Makhmudov and Ruiz. Tiny ring as well. Someone plant this idea in Turkis head please.
For shits and giggles Rd 1 matchups Miller vs. Ruiz II Makhmudov vs. Joyce Zhang vs. Bakole Need two more super heavyweights for an even tournament. Who else fits in? EDIT. Ngannou vs. Wilder. Cheating a bit because Wilder weighs significantly less than most of these guys but it's a nice curveball thrown into the mix. So round 1 matchups Miller vs. Ruiz II Makhmudov vs. Joyce Zhang vs. Bakole Ngannou vs.Wilder
Sounds like fun, I'd go Ruiz UD, Makh UD, Zhang TKO, Ngannou (because I don't want skinny Wilder in the bracket)
