    Guessing you are talking about me because I don't display the same hatred of Joshua like all the cool kids do - convince me about what?

    It turns out that it was his scorecard that looks like a phone on that one picture - the video is here https://www.worldboxingnews.net/2020/10/19/terry-o-connor-video-evidence/

    Doesn't excuse his awful scoring though.

    £100m or so for an hour’s work. Enough mugs will pay for it.

    Boxing's biggest $$ fights are now fights between retired well over the hill fighters and MMA has-beens and now youtubers


    I can name two or three boxers these days, such is the state PPV made of the sport. Joshua Fury and erm.. Creed. :bandit:

    Joshua’s not a boxer bro, he’s a bodybuilder.

    Speaking of fighting bums, Mayweather fought McGregor to pip Marciano's record of 49-0

    imo Maciano shares the record, that McGregor fight just doesn't count. Wasn't even an amateur boxer active in the circuit, let alone a pro

    Bro he’s ducked every big fight post-Oapitchko, utter ****ing joke of a heavyweight. Whyte? Nope. Fury? Nope. Wilder? Nope. Big Fat Baby? Ye Gimmesome.

    MMA is going the same.

    I used to think the no1 contender was the no1 contender on merit, and I think it was more truer that the no1 got a shot pre PPV
    Now it's about how long you can milk PPV as champion for most fighters, Mayweather is a prime example of how it was money over boxing.

    most of the "great" fights when his opponents were old.
    Mayweather is a boxer, an exceptional technical boxer, the worst opponent for an older fighter

    He will beat that lot eventually, but Fury would clean his clock today. People won’t appreciate how good Fury has been until he’s retired.

    I think the standards pretty low tbh.. Wilder can't even box, Joshua is a robot and the others are all crap

    I love this revisionist history from Fury fanboys desperate to prove how their boy that has holds 1 belt and faced only one ranking fighter in the last 5 years is better then the guy that holds 3 and faced top contenders and champions in the same time.

    BTW Joshua didn't face Big Baby as he was done for steroids before their fight so the fat kid from Up stepped up and hilariously knocked him out

    I don't appreciate Fury because he hasn't faced anyone more then half decent since Klitschko which is why I hold Joshua higher despite his loss to a fat Mexican.

    I hope Usyk is able to sort out the heavyweight division until the likes of Dubois can step up.

    The fact that you think or hope Usyk will sort out the heavyweight division says it all. I think Chisora will give him more than enough trouble.

    Fury banged the guy Joshua was scared of twice, in his own yard by the way.

    Anyway, you’re the Matth of boxing, it’s a waste of time chatting with Big Sky Fox Office... let’s wait and see. <ok>

    Joyce is going to sleep then Dubois is in the mix. Hearn will be desperate to get him on board so he can keep him away from AJ.
