    Tonight felt like end of this generations heavyweight division.

    Fury and Usyk have at most two fights left.

    Joshua looks done now. Other then maybe a fair well fight.

    Frank Bruno Mk II.

    This will be Eddie Hearn to Joshua if he manages to sink his claws into Dubois.

    A sad indictment on the promoters we never got to saw the two most in demand fights, AJ v Wilder and AJ v Fury, whilst they were still relevant.

    How did this happen?

    Because they were all unbeaten at their respective peaks and that means more than anything to them keeping the zero

    The irony of the fight was that Joshua had Dubois in trouble in the 5th until the counter punch.

    It’s pretty much got to the point now where a Josh v Fury fight would mean next to **** all.

    Like watching two old piss heads windmilling in Linnet car park.

    This was such a star studded division, but none of them will ever go down as an all time great, they all just ducked the big fights. It’s a massive shame.

    Whatever the outcome of the Fury/Usyk rematch, AJ v Fury will still be a hugely popular fight, even in 2 years time. But it will never have the prestige around it it once would as a one of the biggest fights in heavyweight boxing history, had they fought at the right time a couple of years ago when the demand was huge.

    They all need to sit down and have a think about why the golden goose was allowed to run off. They probably don’t care as they’ve still earned loads of money.

    HT2 , my ex pro soccer mate had both hips done in the last 3 years at 50 - first one took longer to repair / use, than the second - he put it down to not doing the exercises enough first .
    So Get some in !!! LOL

    Ted won, he jabbed his way to victory, without really throwing any big punches. He’ll need to up his game against better opposition.

    The main event was a Commonwealth title fight and was excellent, the existing champion Derbyshire retained his belt, but he couldn’t put the other guy down (though he’ll look a mess this morning he took some heavy blows and was a bloody mess).
