He's a retired boxer, its totally up to him if he wants to do a few lines while partying. He's not exactly glorifying it, someone filmed it and put it out without his consent. Why do we keep up this constant narrative that it isn't rife in sports, politics and throughout the general public. Thought the obligatory boxer combo at the end was funny though. He was debating another fight to be fair, all over now though I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Callum Smith saying he could beat Berterbiev has got to be one of the funniest predictions I've heard in a long time. He got bullied by a guy who started out as a light - welterweight and has the temerity to make such a ridiculous statement as that. If you listen carefully, you can actually hear the roaring laughter of the whole boxing World. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellew saying he’d “ decapatite “ Adonis Stevenson . Stevenson stood him on his head in 5 rounds. Fowler. Idiots and absolutely deluded. Callum gave it enough of the big talk prior to Canelo too. Fought scared. Was scared. Ryder beat him. Says it all. Beterbiev sends him to hospital. Edited February 2, 2023 by Johnnyp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyp Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Not many times id side with Hearn but the fallout between himself and Okolie is a very bad example of when a fighter gets bad people around him and ditch what brought him success. I think he’s a very limited world champion who Hearn promoted brilliantly and manoeuvred to a world title. Now he’s there, ditched his management company 258 ( AJ’S management also ) and Hearn and now Shane McGuigan ( very capable and underrated trainer ) He’s brought on board a lot of hangers on who are giving him bad advice. Moving to Sky and Shalom - huge money offered , i get that, maximise revenues, short career etc but he’s absolutely ripe for that picking. He genuinely believes it’s his in ring ability and it alone that’s got him this far. He’s not naturally talented. Needed a lot to fall in line for him to get here end he’s eroding that now.

I remember when he stepped up to whyte and whytes brother told him off. He looked like he was cacking it. I dont think okolie is anything special at all. Who has he beaten thats good?

tinker Posted February 3, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted February 3, 2023 I had wondered if Usyk would ever drop weights to fight a decent Russian fightee and sort of found my answer , cracking fight and shows how good Usyk is, Fury is not a clear favourite if they ever fight. I can see Usyk fighting Berterbiev again, once Fury sorted, one way or the other. Berterbiev V Usyk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see Usyk fighting Berterbiev again, once Fury sorted, one way or the other. Berterbiev V Usyk Usyk fought and beat the brakes off an elite russian world champion in Gassiev, in Russia. I think he fights Fury and retires. Win or lose. Stands nothing to gain really from fighting and beating Beterbiev. If they fight, it will be at cruiserweight. If you are fighting at heavyweight you can’t just flippantly decide “ yeah im doing cruiserweight “ there’s a weight cut. Cruiserweight is 201lbs and under. Usyk hasn’t had to cut weight since he came to heavyweight and he’s bulked up some. He ain’t doing that at this stage of his career. There will always be someone else when you beat the perceived best out there. Fury and he’s out i think 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
