leemond2008 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 GGG struggling to pull the trigger, this is going pretty much exactly as I expected it to, GGG is 59 years old now, I don't know how anyone could have really made a case for him winning this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Crying shame to see such a fighter decline in that way. I suppose it was what most boxing experts expected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it lives up to be half the fight that was Funny to think if it was a 12 round fight Hearns would have won (assuming ifs buts and maybe’s) Maybe Angelo would have said your blowing it son between rounds nine and ten Edited September 20, 2022 by Follyfoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some things never change, certainly in boxing. I remember watching the second fight in the Porche club, Small Heath. One of them wore trunks similar to Apollo Creed from the Rocky films. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Shakur Stevenson, losing his belts on the scales. He came in a bit over and admitted he had really been struggling to make JF weight. He will now move up to lightweight, which will be interesting, with the likes of Haney, Davis and Lomo. It's still undecided if the original fight for Saturday night will still go ahead. Apparently, Conceicao could still choose to fight, and lose, and still keep the belts.

OutByEaster? Posted September 24, 2022 Moderator Share Posted September 24, 2022 I can't see any of the top lightweight's losing sleep over Stevenson on this performance. I'm sure the hometown cards won't reflect it, but this has been a pretty close fight by my reckoning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leemond2008 Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Joyce v Parker is warming up nicely, been a better fight that I was expecting so far. I know Parker isn't the biggest puncher at all but **** me, Joyce has got some chin on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinker Posted September 24, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted September 24, 2022 Woodhall chats come crap, his scoring was well out. Joyce has to be given a shot, Usyk would be nice but for me Wilder would be a cracking fight.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Best performance I’ve seen from Joyce. Great fight. Shame he’s not 10 years younger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Age is just a number for Joe. I've been singing his praises for a while. He also earnt me a few quid with the Dubois destruction. This kid is a danger to anyone in the division, hence, no - one was ever calling him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will take someone very skilled indeed, to break down that defence. Admittedly, Stevenson isn't the greatest to watch, but take nothing away from his ability to hit and make you miss.
