But you’d question that is the elite level? Only Ngannou’s second ever contest, his first being more akin to the WWE, it was effectively like AJ hitting a dummy in the gym? No taking anything away from the power of the punches but would AJ be in a similar situation against the likes of; Usyk...

I think the events of the last 12 hours or so might now suggest differently. 😂 Its clear the October ‘Baddest Man in the Planet’ was as genuine as a hookers kiss. 🤷‍♂️

Did it not put you in mind of his early career though, when he was knocking Bulgarian Binmen over? Ngannou wasn’t any near the standard and only reiterated that the Fury facade back in October was nothing more than a money making exercise. FWIW I still think a 100% Fury beats AJ, late...

Apparently Ngannou's camp were told on the Thursday before that unless there was a flash knockdown, probably after a count of 30, he was always going to lose on points, but his $20million cheque clearly softened the blow.

You think Fury won’t win?

The ‘semi final’ with the winner getting a shot at the ‘Undisputed’ heavyweight championship against the winner of Fury vs Usyk. And that’s perhaps where it gets complicated. The ideal scenario is if both Fury and AJ win, which is what the Saudi’s will be on their respective prayer mats for...

Not according to Frank Warren ;) With not only his achievements to date in the ring but his stance on mental health, Fury had the chance to cement legendary status in British sport, even as a huge supporter of him I wince almost every time he opens his mouth now, fast becoming the David Icke of...

HT heard a strange one the other day whilst at Lords ( North London rather than France) don’t really know what to make of it? 🤷‍♂️ Its either Olympic level BS or bizarrely credible? Zelensky had told Usyk he can’t fight Fury at the moment because of the situation with Russia/Ukraine. Usyk is...

Those 24 rounds of punishment against Usyk have had a long term impact on AJ’s career. He will never be the fighter he was, Wilder knocks him out in 4 rounds, and as for fighting Fury, there’s more chance of taking on Billy than Tyson. ‘But he never fought Fury’ is a better legacy than...

Despite the black businesses line :ffsparr: Right up there with Gerald Ratner.

But would you watch it in the Thieves or The Smugglers? They get us whichever way 😂

Gareth A Davies confirmed on you tube yesterday it’s £26.95, a tall order for a non title fight? Bizarrely whilst he was no Mystic Meg, Tony Millard called this as far back as the Autumn of 1998 in the car on the way to Gillingham, it was in the wake of BBC losing the Test Match coverage and...

Getting DAZN PPV on the Sky Platform obviously helps, but do you think all the free stream mullarkey eats into what Hearn can ultimately pay either fighter? When Bruno fought Tyson the second time in 1996, it was a lot simpler back then, wasn’t it something like £14.95 to buy it on Sky, and £4...

Loser joins the WWE?

I'm not saying he'd still be alive today, and he definitely wouldn't have got Parkinson's, but retiring relatively fit at 32, he would have gone on the be a giant of the civil rights movement in the US probably on a par with Martin Luther King.

There's an argument that if Ali hadn't had the prime of career curtailed, both Frazier and Foreman would have been contenders/opponents, he would have been Champion for a decade and then retired with his health in a far better place. I read somewhere before the Holmes fight, he had a medical...

They were different fighters back in 2015 And was that the fight that should have seen both boxers disqualified after the first round? Referee Howard Foster was allegedly told by Robert Smith of the BBB of C at ringside to ignore the incident to stop a potential riot at 02 He had the...

That last Round at White Hart Lane would have had an effect on AJ both mentally and physically. Usyk for the first two minutes effectively said “This is what I’ve done to you for the previous 11 rounds and expect more in the rematch”, then for that last 60 secs “And I can stop you in your own...

Sorry Crodo got to disagree, he’s not the peoples champion, as much as I admired him early on in his career it’s become apparent he was manufactured by The Hearns in the same was Bruno was by Lawless and Duff. When it came to the crunch he had no intention of fighting not one, but three...

I’m going for an impressive early KO, despite Pulev punchers chance, with AJ winning 2,3 or 4. Just out of interest for the ring walk music do they have to pay the artist royalties? If yes, Tom Welch had an impressive debut last night on Channel 5 but made his walk to the ring to ‘Rock and...
