Chisora, yet again, getting more World Champion fights than the average boxer smfh. Chisora would give one hell of a fight but ultimately this is gonna be like David Haye...
Paulie is a goated overachiever for his limited skillset. He still got to be Weekend Champion twice, had all the heart and never ducked. He's a great pundit for the sport. Paulie is winning in my book. If he wants to fight bare knuckle because he thinks he can do better at it (and win a Championship) than boxing at this stage of his life then more power to the Magic Man.
Can't believe this is the benchmark for being a British Champion . What a sloppy fight. Can hardly believe just a couple of fights ago, Frazer Clarke was in a close fight with Fabio Wardley.
It shows you, in hindsight, how many levels above Fabio is to Wardley. Not saying Fabio is a world beater, just saying...
Ben has become one of the most hated British Boxers not because he lacks skills but it's his attitude that he's the greatest thing since sliced bread and no humility whatsoever. He comes across as someone you just want to continually punch in the face.
That being said - He's improving, sure, but he's far from the best and I doubt his credentials later on. I doubt he'd get so far as being a World Champion in the future without it being given to him as opposed to earned. There are much better prospects than you, young Ben.
Momma's boy ain't gonna be getting anymore UK sparring any time soon.
Fucking LOL! I know right. Now who's gonna hire him after he back stabs you. It's poor taste TBf - if he really felt that way he should have just said that either of them can win if they both turn up.
Thank you to all who didn't read my original post. This has nothing to do with the boxers themselves (feel like I need to write "female boxers themselves" to even make sense to some of you) or the ring card girls.
Props for Jr for beating DeGale but seriously I think everyone is giving way too much credit to the winner. DeGale proved to be shot to pieces and stood right in front of Jr.
Jr didn't look spectacular. Any boxer who's young, can move and has a chin will win against Eubank which unfortunately for him is 95% of the Super Middle Weight AND Middleweight division.
Eubank is a better fighter. Chavez only had success at 160 because he had a massive size advantage over his opponents, once he moved up in weight he looked terrible. Eubank also has more time on his side to improve his legacy while Chavez is pretty much done.
You don't think Chavez's World Champion status brings far more to the table than Eubank Jr who in all fairness may never become a World Champion? I know the belt that Chavez won was a Mickey Mouse Belt but surely
I know Chavez Jr fought some $41tty fighters in his career but he's had decent wins like Andy Lee who was actually a World Champion in his own right having won a vacant to a solid fighter in Korobov and drew with Quillin (another World Champion).
Jr's best wins were a shot to death Abraham and Yildrim (who, let's just face it - walk straight into you).
Chavez jr is the best Son of boxing outside of Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Nah, I think Tim Tszyu is during well.

He's climbing steadily and I'd rate him more at this rate than Eubank Jr and he's climbing up, up and up.
its easy to see how much he has left.
horn and matthysse fights are the evidence. spence destroys pacquiao.
pac should be able to beat Broner tho
Not sure about that statement on Spence. Pacquiao has that ability to make usually durable fighters look pretty bad. Not saying that Spence wouldn't beat him - he has a greater chance than anyone but I honestly think Pacquiao dances around him making the fight harder than anyone expects it to be. I am still in favour of Spence but probably by a 65-35 margin.
Pacquiao would beat Broner, agreed though.
I for one want to see him against Pacquiao. Not a Pacquiao hater but I am genuinely mythed as to how much he has left. A loss to Spence is an immediate retirement but a non-controversial win would automatically spell #1 in the Welterweight division.
Pacquiao is such a boxer that you can give him the best fights because he will always be the A-Side against anyone not named Mayweather. We still don't know a lot about how much he has in the tank.
Same way I feel about people from Barking who say they're from Essex...no mate, you're from East London, the $h!t part of London - deal with it and stop pretending. People from Colchester are from Essex. Bunch of gits. If you have a tube you're from London.
Let's be real. The injury was no excuse and Hate didn't even mention it in his interview loss whilst congratulating the better man. He did this because he'd know he'd be in $h!t like he was against Klitschko.
However, one things for sure - Bellew couldn't even knockout a one-legged, injured Haye. Haye didn't even react to his punches which just shows you Bellew is not a powerful heavyweight and he's a very average boxer
The Head of the NSAC said he was going to sit down with Byrd and review round by round why she scored it the way she did. They should make that session public for everyone to see.
He's of course going to box. Canelo looks strong but so far he's only proved he can knock out smaller guys.
He may have the power but he's yet to prove it against a bigger guy.
lol. Love at how the PBC Commentators commented that Robert was gonna get back to his boxing style and play it smart. F-cking LOL!
He can be a good fighter but he needs to leave his dad.
I reckon he'd be good with Thurman's trainer. He has a similar style to Thurman but he's not as smart. Thurman brawls when he wants but he never forgets his boxing.
