Watching the Youtube boxing event with my lad. It's been surprisingly entertaining so far. It's getting to the part of the under card that's got professional athletes and amateur MMA fighters in. They're going for it.And it's nice to spend time with my lad.

As mentioned earlier the 'big fight' between KSI and Logan Paul has been foremost in Little MACs mind for some time.As a follower of the Sidemen he even confessed to being nervous about the outcome to his mum. There was a problem in terms of watching the fight though as we would be in the airport when the fight was due to take place.So in a Likely Lads style we decided that we would avoid the result and watch it on youtube on our return.The problem was that every teenager in the queue for boarding the plane was watching the fight/s on some sort of device. This meant we had to stand away from the queue and stare at the planes out the window. He even put his tracky top on so his Sidemen shirt was out of view avoiding any potential abuse from stray Logan Paul fans.Paul seems to have outraged British youtubers with his controversial filming in a Japanese park of a teenager who'd recently commit suicide.Anyway after making it through the flight and asking the Taxi driver not to menton the result or put the radio on we got home to watch on the tube!Little MAC took the defeat of KSI's brother to Logan Paul's brother well despite the setback to the Sidemen it was somewhat expected. We then sat through the 6x 3 minute main event in which Logan Paul despite a massive height and weight advantage appeared to be blowing through his arse into the second round. The fight rumbled on to the end and Little Mac decided that KSI would indeed win the fight despite his lack of knowledge of the controversies of boxing scoring.The verdict was announced : One judge for KSI and two for a draw . The verdict a draw !Little MAC reacted in fury and confusion, stormed upstairs, woke his mum up and explained how his hero had been cheated.He's settling down as the rematch somewhat surprisingly will be scheduled.Both Paul and KSI have considerably more followers than proper boxers he assures me.Fogged off indeed.

I had no prior knowledge of this "event", only becoming aware when Radio 5 started becoming animated late yesterday evening with news of the imminent "biggest internet boxing something or other of all time on youtube."From what I can gather, it was two gobshites, with no prior proper boxing training or experience. who were going toe-to-toe. And millions of people were paying to watch it. I believe the result was "a majority draw", because neither of them landed a serious blow in six rounds.Leeds Council with all their CCTVs should be jumping all over this, offering streaming of Saturday night paggas between pissed-up twats who similarly can't land a serious blow in six rounds, but with the added bonus of bouncers steaming in, showing them how it should be done.

Not sure what more GGG has to do to win over the judges....short of paying them more than Alvarez seemingly does!

Haven't watched boxing for a while, the scoring reminded me of why. Knockout to get a draw stuff

I watched the whole thing on YouTube at 6:30 Sunday morning. Fuck paying for it. To give Alvarez some credit he kept coming, did hurt GGG with body shots and made him look a it ragged at times but it was a clear 3 or 4 round win for GGG. The body shots didn't do enough to deter GGG though and he scored more regularly than Alvarez. clear win in my book. A result decided in the offices of Golden Boy and TV execs. A third fight guaranteed when GGG is another year older and being asked to level a series that he should already be 2-0 up in and the matter settled.
Cutsyke
Kept coming forward, kept stopping jabs with his face too.If the body shots really hurt GGG he did one hell of a job of finishing as strong as he did.Third fight, I'll watch it because it was a good fight but actually pay for it????Personally think GGG should walk away and enjoy retirement. Must be hard to love a sport that doesn't love you back.

Shows what boxing, and to an extent sport in general, is increasingly about. GGG sums up everything that is good about boxing. World champion as an amateur, silver medallist at the Olympics. Longest active unified championship reign, 23-knockout winning streak over a 9-year period, highest knockout-to-win ratio in middleweight history. The list goes on. Great technically. Iron chin. Pretty shabby the way it's all ending.
