Got Bam late stoppage on that one, then hopefully go up to Bantam, pick up a title there and work his way up to super-bantam. And hopefully get a Bam vs Inoue in about 18 months time if the Saudi's are willing to put up the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two judges that gave him 117-111 were a joke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You kind of got this sometimes after an alleged robbery if I recall it happened with Lewis and Holyfield. The second fight was a lot closer than the draw but they gave it to Lewis by a higher margin to exorcise the ghosts of the previous scorecards/result Edited May 26 by Follyfoot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The judging in the first fight was an example of a joke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably have the biggest ratings of any fight in the last 10 years, apart from those including YouTubers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on Netflix, so not sure whether they'll offer a one off PPV for people that would (for some reason) want to see it but don't have a subscription - but the viewing figures will likely be mental. I still can't wrap my head around the fact that it's happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avfc96 Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 The proposed date for an Usyk vs Fury rematch has already been pushed back from October 12th to December 21st. Got a feeling it won't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's absolutely meaningless, unless you're an idiot who wants to pay money to watch such nonsense. And, I'm guessing there's going to be plenty of idiots interested. I wouldn't even watch the highlights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avfc96 Posted May 29 Share Posted May 29 5 vs 5 this weekend. The only fight I'd be confident to predict is Richards beating Hutchinson easily. Slightly favour Ford, Sheeraz, Hrgovic. Wilder vs Zhang is a case of whoever lands first as far as I'm concerned. Can't see it going beyond 4 rounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
