    Hopefully AJ & Usyk isn't another nail in the coffin

    All I hope for is a fair result.
    No bs British stoppages or robberies.

    Please can we just have one damn weekend where its not a blackeye for the sport?! Just one!

    We have two good guys here, two of the top maybe the two top HWs going at it. Its refreshing.

    Regardless who wins this is a fight where both deserve credit. I hope neither gets downplayed should they lose these two are what is right for boxing. They deserve nothing but respect for making this fight and taking risks unlike the rest of the clowns in this division/sport.

    All that said - Where is the promotion for this fight?

    Why isn't Eddie everywhere as usual telling us what a barnstormer it is? I don't want to say I am weary but I do find it a little bit strange I've seen virtually no promotion.
    No press conferences, no round tables, gloves are off, fighter/trainer break downs...

      you just know AJ is going to win a dodgy decision. even if he gets schooled and loses 10 rounds they'll give it a draw.

        - -Being promoted on DAZN. Maybe they feel the excellence of the fight sells itself after endless media releases.

          They dont need to promote in the US it's a given everybody across the pond will tune in. If A.J. does anything great he puts butts in seat in his part of the world so the fight is selling itself
