    Mayer comes across as the kind of all-American goody two shoes professional sports person - fair enough, but it wears off when she doesn't shine.

    Shields on the other hand came across here looking and sounding more like Clubber Lang but properly backed it up. I'm no fan of womens' boxing but would watch Shields again if she was on.

    Exactly.
    I'm not against women wanting to box.
    But why not have their own women's only shows?

    I don't know any women that watch women's boxing. And I don't know any men that like women's boxing.

    We are just expected to pretend to enjoy it and be politically correct

    Chief support has sucked the atmosphere out of the crowd. Don’t know who decided the running order for tonight but they to not do it again.

    Does anyone know how Joyce’s left eye got so scarred up? I’ve never seen it addressed

    ..and women's fights are cheap and relatively easy to arrange.

    I actually think it’s more that they’re just miles cheaper. Can add a ‘world title’ fight to the bill for peanuts. And people have to pretend it’s great. Win win.

    100% garbage. Only pushed because of political correctness and to a certain extent simps.

    I've searched the internet for this on a number of occasions for about 7 years now and found nothing. I thought I read somewhere that it was an accident when he was a kid but I think my head made that up.

    Yeah I already said this before but it still doesn’t explain why Bentley was before Noakes. They also had a bizarre running order for Yarde Beterbiev.

    Anyway, most people watching are here for the main event so hopefully it’s a good one.
