Does what matter? I just asked you what your credentials are. What are they? Who are you? How many professional fights have you had? Your threats are pathetic. You're embarrassing yourself and I'd quit while you're behind if I were you. Honestly, buddy, I really hate break this news to you because I know it will genuinely hurt but not a single soul considers you some boxing scholar. I promise you they don't. My record, personal info. I'm not threatening you I am simply saying we can spar or fight, its not a big deal. My record could be 0-80 and my name Joe Bloggs or Cynthia and I still know I could beat your ass and you're too much of a coward to fuck with me and I'd be right. Why you asking it changes nothing, you can type whatever and be a smart arse, take whatever roids, do all these things but know you're a hoe that would never step to me in person. I don't care for being a boxing scholar or internet scholar or whatever, I learned many years back respect in the boxing community not that I even class this as such is earned from not going against the grain or telling the truth but merely by saying what people want to hear.

What Mafia are you referring to here, the Italian Mafia? You are now saying the Italian Mafia have an influence on boxing in 2026? So who exactly set up this scripted play we just watched? Do Usyk and Rico practice the moves in a secret underground lair? I am genuinely not arguing with someone on why the Earth isn't flat which is something that was objectuvely discovered over two thousand years ago. I don't have the time or patience for that. Pigeons and Chess boards and all of that. I'd strongly recommend you go and invest in a Celestron StarSense Explorer Telescope and have a gander. They're less than £200 on the Argos website. I'm saying anyone with proper money has influence in boxing or any sport. Everyone has a price these days, most peoples isn't even much. How could they have discovered the earth was any shape back then with no telescopes, rockets or advanced technology? I am genuinely kinda curious. So I buy one of these telescopes then what, what do I point it at that proves the earth isn't flat? Maybe the earth isn't flat, I honestly haven't a damn clue but I would be interested in seeing for myself one way or the other. Frankly it doesn't make any difference to me what shape the thing is but I am not one of those that find it potentially being flat as laughable, I simply don't know.

Right, it's not that complicated. It's two men having a fight. There are plethora of reasons and moving parts as to why Usyk badly struggled with Rico in this fight. This isn't the first time it's happened and I highly doubt it will be the last. Oh looky, the old "argument from authority" fallacy is here to play. Who are you? How many professional fights have you had? I'm going to take a wild guess at precisely zero so I'd leave the argument from authority angle at the door, it's an incredibly cringe worthy look quite frankly. There are a long list of fighters, actual fighters, world class fighters, not someone who's sparred his pal in the local boxing gym once or twice, who have the total opposite view to you on this fight so what now? Your argument implodes. Does it matter? just ends up with oh let me look at Boxrec, oh you lost to so & so, you could literally be p4p and they'd still just claim your resume lacked or something lame, there is no winning from saying who you are or what you have achieved online. It doesn't mean or prove anything. If you have any doubt about my credentials you literally live down the road don't you? I am happy to meet you at any gym or even in the street right now, literally now and show you what I know but you won't cause you're a coward. You will say anything but name a spot Hey even those who sparred their pal in a local boxing gym are more authorised to talk boxing, its more than you've done ain't it? But I will give you that a lot of guys who have competed know absolute nothing about the sport and it will never not blow my mind how they achieved so much despite knowing literally nothing or how they get continual employment

Erm yes it indeed is totally the epitome of that adjective you've gone with but I as you said you don't want to discuss boxing apparently because it's scripted and the fighters have dress rehearsals and only you're smart enough to see it and everyone else is too dumb to see it so I think you're probably better off in a flat earth forum as I suggested, infact I can almost guarantee you'd absolutely love it over there. Mafia involvement and dives have been around as long as the sport has. Match fixing and inside gambling is nothing new in any sport. You just seen a 1-0 kickboxer compete arguably with the goat and umpteen of the most laughably bought title shots you're ever likely to see yet still snobbish and acting like the sports not corrupt to its core? How many thousand premature stoppages, mismatches, undeserved title shots etc do we need for you to wake up? Ok so tell us why its not flat because some bought off scientist of nasa told you so

to answer your question probably boredom and I think the only time I am happy is when ranting, I don't really know why do I still discuss boxing? I guess because its like being in an abusive relationship you can't escape from.

Why you still doing it then, bud? Seems like you'd be better off taking your tin hat and pursuing flat earth forums or something of that ilk. I don't believe in a flat earth but everything else we've been taught is more or less is all bollocks is a flat earth really that bonkers? You'll say yes and most will and laugh but do any of us know for sure other than some bollocks we've been told by Jews and scientists funded by them. 100% dead ass, mother fucking serious. Again I don't really believe its flat, it could be a hexagon or a triangle for all I fucking know but really what are we even going on or laughing at anyone that might think it is flat?

As vvank as the HW division is and believe me its proper bunk, boxing isn't all that complicated. If you think an olympic gold medallist with 350 amateur fights, the greatest CW of all-time, an ATG HW with an exceptional jab, footwork and right hook doesn't know how to stabilise some muppet circling to his left nonstop or doesn't know how to cut him off you're crackers. Have any of you ever stepped in a ring, genuinely? Not to be snobbish but seriously you haven't and it shows because you don't see the nuisances of the sport only the narratives being painted and bollocks off boxrec. Its baffling to me the entire forum, a boxing forum no less buys into this then again the same lot did when Floyd let Conor work for 4 rounds.

The sport is done for its decreased in skill level, rigged to high heaven. Belts being bought left and right and everyone selling their soul inside and outside the sport fighters paid 20 mill to make fights appear competitive. Its not the sport I fell in love with and the worst part is fans all lap it up. No matter the dive, how bad the stoppage is or anything, fans buy into week in, week out. I know longer love it or enjoy discussing it the same way I don't politics and a million other things littered with make believe horse shit. Its gone from discussing boxing to some political, make believe WWE shit I don't even care to discuss

Because an 1-0 fighter isn't supposed to beat the Heavyweight champion of the world. What point do you think you're making here? He's 4-1 against, miles ahead and in full control with a few rounds to go. We can see by the rbr not a single one of you bought that narrative and still don't. My point is you all buy into anything that is served and common sense is out of the window. There is no logic or common sense. Whether its boxing, politics, mma, darts or football it comes down to the narrative, the picture being painted and barely a single fucker can see it for what it for what it is

We are in a WWE make believe era full of people who have never stepped in a ring that don't know when a fighter is being carried or not, that's where we are. These same lot will tell you that ydksab. They will buy any WWE storyline, straight up Fvcking dorks man buying the whole oh yh these Egyptians who can't build a damn thing to this day built these 4k yrs back and there's a fight at the bottom going on where the most skilled HW is struggling vs some cunt slumped over his front foot and circling to his left nonstop, lol I know this HW era is a bag of vvank but come on now

Nothing alike to that fight. Rico bullied and beat up Usyk for the majority of the fight and should have been way ahead at the time of the stoppage. Then he sold the narrative well only nobody bet on Rico, why? You, you all bought it yet Rico was what 4/1 still yet nobody bet a penny, why?

This was no different to Floyd vs McGregor with the boxer letting his opponent do his thing, downloading data then turning it up at will so fans go their money worth. Garbage stoppage but the writing was on the wall and it likely sells the rematch, 1 of Usyks final 3 and a further big pay day for both.

He was carrying him but ffs really ref? This sport is so fucking lame

This is just McGregor vs Floyd all over again lol All it does is expose the casuals

Come on guys Usyk is putting on a show and carrying him

Jeez this is over when Usyk wants

I am not even in the camp for a kickboxer being unable to translate but can I see this being even somewhat compelling? Can I balls. While technically better than a lot of MMA fighters and other kickboxers he just doesn't have the pop despite being a unit or the style. I don't see this going long and that isn't even Usyk really apart from when DDD vexed him. Usyk TKO 4

Gotta get him back on that horse meat and he'll be a jacked 270lbs crushing everyone again in no time. Haha I don't even doubt it. Ubereem, Kirkland under Ann Wolfe, Tokyo Douglas was stuff of legends

What a weird time to be alive when former 175lb light heavyweight Tony Bellew dwarfs Ubereem and is twice his size

Never been sold on Lapin but eek Rest of the card sadly predictable as fuck even if the 80s pornstar was favourite

This is the problem with hype, anyone who is honest with this guy is immediately dismissed as a hater etc despite it being glaringly obvious he just doesn't have the goods. Fringe top 20 sort of guy, nothing more. He won't just lose he'll get smoked everytime he gets these undeserved chances thanks to hype. Sanchez 3/1, mental to me, mental.

He was fully clothed so no doubt around his usual 226-228

With that said stick the cvnt in with Itauma so I don't ever have to hear of him again

He should retire and become a podcaster where he'll have 10k dedicated simpletons tuning in to tell everyone he's loveable. He is so lovely, such an honest guy, he's so relatable. Kiss kiss, lick lick...even his fanbase sickens me to my core with the over the top, patronising slobbery like a bunch of women all fake complimenting make up & hair, pathetic nut-huggery. Putting him in big fights continually is the most baffling thing in boxing. He is awful, undeserving, uncompetitive and quite frankly he doesn't even try. He & others talk about others quitting and taking knees but he practically quits as soon the bell goes. Where is the appeal in it? He doesn't even throw a punch ffs Its tragic and a terrible look for the sport, its worse than this influencer chit

Can Wardley change anything? He's terrible limited and does the same things over and over and over however IF he can change just about anything or add something different I give him a really good chance.

Even though he lost most of the rounds I was surprised at how easily he blunted Morrells offense. He (Morrell) never landed with regularity or landed anything big really did he? Only 28 but for me, he is done. His talent was never a question but he's genuinely one of the dumbest fighters I can recall. I don't know how you come out of the Cuban system with 150 amateur fights, win two titles yet somehow have no ring IQ? I think he almost has all the tools he just has no idea wtf he is doing with them, its bizarre. He should be using his feet & working behind the jab instead he's up close doing the Ali shuffle or has his ear muffs on and is stood inviting David Benavidez of all motherfvckers to unleash a 19 punch combination on his completely exposed face he is sticking out there. Is he genuinely r3t4rded or something?

I get the logic that Wilder would land clean right hands so he wins but he landed a million clean right hands on Szpilka who has a terrible, terrible chin before he finally put him out. Could you imagine Szpilka eating 150 clean as you like right hands from say Wardley or an Itauma or AJ even? I couldn't at all. He landed countless on some guy named Hardon. Zhang was old as hell and just walked through them. Landed about 50 right hands in a row on Chisora who was 43? and getting dropped left and right by average punchers like Parker. Its about time we reevaluate Wilders right hand/power and frankly stop acting like everything he touches turns to dust. I am in no way saying he can't punch but his power didn't really translate to elite level. People think he'd be all wrong for Joyce but isn't a gigantic, high volume pressure fighter with a stiff jab, a granite chin with endless cardio all wrong for a guy who is totally reliant on fighters being static at the end of his right hand?

Wilder is the better puncher, Joyce is a better fighter. Better resume.
