Great victory, pleasantly surprised.

What a fight and I mean what a fight. I think knacking Selby and Frampton in the same year is above anything any other fighters done this year. I think it's one that needs to sink in.. that was a massive result.. lovely to see no shit before or after.. class

Cutsyke

Fair assessment that. Two results very few believed he was capable of. Interesting that Frampton says he hits hard.

Funny that promoters encourage a lot of preflight BS yet most boxing fans I know can’t stand it.

Travis_Bickle stupid bastard. Doesn't need to fight.

Ingle's lad seems like a bit of a whopper.

Raposa

Isn't it about time that glass jawed waste of space Amir Khan called it a draw?

Reggie_Perrin

Raposa yeah, he's been shit for a while. Fast but inaccurate and like you say he can't take a punch. Time to retire, he was never going to beat brook anyway but still may try and make the right even though it means nothing now.

Mega_Armageddon_Chickens

To be fair to him he's never been the best at taking at punch. And Alvarez and Crawford are a street above the cleverly picked fighters he's spent most of his career against. I just cannot understand why he's stepped up massively both in opponent and weight when Brook seems to be by far the better option.

Raposa

Money!...that and his weak chin,which is probably the main reason why most of the top fighters gave him a shot, generally a low risk option.
He'll now want the Brook fight as there's nowhere else to go but as Reggie says it means fuck all now other than a means to top up their pensions!

Ha ha ha, Anthony Joshua got mopped by an Uber Driver.

Raposa

king_of_the_slums
Serves him right, all he's done is talk about Wilder in the build up.
Might actually open the division up a bit now instead of all the posturing and trash talk.

Reggie_Perrin

king_of_the_slums Ruiz isn't shit, very close fight with Joseph Parker. AJ chin is shit, hands aren't fast enough, gasses too easy and needs to sort his jab out. Fury would take him to school.

Raposa

Reggie_Perrin
Yep,,first time Ruiz has been put down apparently!
It's quite evident that Joshua can't take a punch,an ageing Klitschko dropped him and Whyte,Povetkin and Parker all hurt him despite eventually losing.
Wouldnt hold much hope for him against both Wilder and Fury.

Reggie_Perrin

Raposa plus their dance cards are sorted until late 2020 now and they will decide who's best. His best route is to get the rematch, not stiff Ruiz on the purse and sort his game out. Hearn didn't look happy. Off night, he can come back but he can't call the shots anymore.

Travis_Bickle

Too busy doing adverts and believing his hype. Don't blame the lad for wanting to make as much brass as he can, but if you get the day job wrong, the money dries up pretty quick.
Fury would knack him....
