    Not impressed with how the atmosphere is coming across, feels a bit soulless.
    Aye, the acoustics at Wembley are horrible.

      Terrible ****ing stoppage, DeGale looked great but the stoppage ruined the fight for me. **** Jim Watt and Haye as well; I hate when people argue that "he would have gotten stopped anyway". I think any boxer deserves a chance to prove themselves after they have gotten hurt. Sure, Gonzalez was probably going to get beaten or stopped but he deserved a chance to prove he could overcome. You could also tell the referee was incredibly eager to stop the fight after Gonzalez was badly hurt

      Also props to Malignaggi for calling out Jim Watt, who as far as I am concerned is the worst commentator in the world. It shocks me how a former boxer can be so horribly biased.

      Why Boxing must you hurt me so?

        I wonder how those views are from those stadium seats. Seems too far away to me. I guess you can see it on the big screen.

          I'd be more surprised if there isn't a horrible stoppage. Makeup call for Groves on the way.

              I feel like Groves gonna get jobbed now. Him announcing he signed with Sauerland already sealed the deal.
