Best not ask then. All joking aside, yes i wnt to games in the 80s, no i wasn't involved in the hoolie stuff, ****ing mugs game. Never a headhunter. Hope this helps.

I don’t think AJ deserves any shade after last night’s showing, he did what he had to do. I said from the outset though, he had no option other than to smash this **** to pieces. The Big Bulgarian Grunt barely did anything apart from stand there with a smile on his face taking big blows.
AJ has got him out of the way now and whether he faces Usyk or Fury next, who ever it is will be a completely different kettle of fish.
I completely disagree that Tyson stands behind a jab to a boring points victory by the way, for two reasons... 1. He’s beaten a bigger puncher by aggressively hounding him and 2. He knows AJ can’t take a sustained beat down. The more he sits behind a jab the better AJ’s chance is of getting a stoppage, and if anybody knows this it’s Sugarhill Steward.

Yeah it was. I was pretty impressionable back then though, and thought it was cool at the time. Suppose it was my first taste of danger and getting wrapped up in the whole tribal fan thing.
I wasn’t trying to be cryptic about it last night, was genuinely interested if you were part of that scene. The roadman thing kind of bounced it off track.
Yep AJ boxed smart. He needed to pound Pulev down bit by bit.
As I said to slurps, one punch can end it in heavyweight division, so AJ needed to make sure that wasn’t him on the end of it early doors in that fight.
No worries, I knew what you were getting at.Yeah it was. I was pretty impressionable back then though, and thought it was cool at the time. Suppose it was my first taste of danger and getting wrapped up in the whole tribal fan thing.

Me and Tobes banter about my tools, but there's nothing to it.

Oh so you were acting like a **** about it on purpose then.
noted.
Fury can't take a sustained beat down either - people are forgetting that he nearly got knocked out by an exhausted Wilder and Wallins did a number on him.
Fury has the physical attributes to boss the fight with his jab and clinching every time Joshua tries to get in range and that is what I think will happen.
You do know that Joshua has a mandatory fight vs Usyk and Fury had a fight cancelled this month against some nobody? Why wouldn't both guys have these fights first?Tune up?
Another one?
**** Me bro how longs he gonna duck this fight for
BTW why is the onus only on Joshua to make the fight - what is Fury doing? Making videos calling Joshua a dosser while making fights against nobodies - why isn't this considered ducking?
Tune up?

Pulev was a mandatory defence you bell end.
I really don't understand the hate towards Joshua tbh. What's he done apart from win fights and titles?
You can’t re-write history bro, Fury got up and went for Wilder in their first match after being on the receiving end of his biggest bomb, nothing sustained about it, he bossed that fight.
Wallin caught him in a clinch iirc, there was no beat-down and Fury comfortably used that match for fitness and won at a canter, prob won 10 rounds.
We each have our opinion, AJ’s weakness is on his back foot when under pressure, so expecting Fury and Steward to cross their fingers and hope to jab his head off is naive imo.
Did you mean to put it on the ‘Who’s face would you like to punch’ thread?
I don’t hate the guy, I think he’s done incredibly well considering how he started out, but the ‘hate’ has probably evolved from the hype. There’s some of us that have never bought it, he’s not a GOAT, and aside from a finished Klitschko who’d not seen any action for 18 months after Fury took his belts, he’s followed the path of least resistance.
Just my view. Plus I like taking sides, Tyson is a Manchester lad who has beaten the odds to get where he is, AJ an ex-dealer who turned his life around after well, let’s not go there, but fair play to him anyway.
