Utterly ludicrous. He somehow gave Dubois the first 6 rounds & even the 8th when he was just eating leather from Joyce’s jab.

Something needs to be done about boxing refereeing.


They should just have to fight until someone's kod or gives up imo, but obviously that's not even remotely sensible, so we have to put up with fixes
 
Anyone watching Saunders vs Murray

Interesting fight Murrays a bit old, but he's tough
 
Spence vs garcia tonight ..

They'll go the distance and they'll give it to Spence, but I think he's overrated
 
Watched the first few rounds and fell asleep. Good decision probably.

Hopefully Saunders gets a chance at Canelo.

Won nion every round if not all... If Saunders had a bigger punch I'd give him a chance, but Canelo would beat him more than likley...

You can’t knock his record 30-0, but he needs better opposition than a 38 year old Murray, who didn’t have anything left in the tank, but still took him the distance. I’m not sure Saunders has enough power to see off the very best at super middle. I think Canelo smashes him as does Smith.

My thoughts im hopeful Smith can actually beat Canelo but it's a big ask
 
Always thought Saunders was overrated personally.

He can box well I think he's actually better than he gets credit for personally, but whether he can live with the top top fighters remains to be seen and he's 31..... Might he a fright I dunno
 
Watched the replay of Saunders vs Murray - Saunders won every round for me.

If he can stop acting like such a twat outside of the ring then he can finally get the big fights - the obvious ones being Smith/Canelo but I would also like to see him face off against Benavidez and Plant.
 
Worth watching Yarde tonight?
I'm going to try to watch it.

I always liked Yarde - thought he had promise although the Kovalev fight was way too early for him so will be interesting to see how he has recovered from it and I've got to admit I haven't seen much of Arthur but heard decent things.

Should hopefully be a decent domestic fight.
 
Worth watching Yarde tonight?
I think so. Arthur's not fought anyone, but he's unbeaten and not old.
Yarde's the heavy favourite, but we all saw how that went last week.
Not much on the undercard, though. McCann's an interesting young boxer, but he's not fighting anyone worthwhile, from what I can see.

Sounds like I’ll fall asleep around round three then. Looking forward to it.

Very useful fight for McCann. Did easily enough to win, but his opponent's style and pressure caused him some problems.
Needs to stay away from the ropes and stay switched on when moving away from them.
