    Ukrainians are better boxing fans than Brits. There were hundreds Ukrainians at the homecoming of Usyk on Sunday midnight at the airport.

        It might have something to do with the whole Ukraine / Russia beef

        Russia have been oppressing the Ukraine for a good while now .... Usyk went to Russia and won the remaining belts off a Russian

        National pride ... final of the 168 tournament was two brits

              Aren't the belts that are brought into the ring the property of the defending champ? I thought that if the Challenger won he just got to keep them for photos and **** and gave them back to the defeated champ then whatever alphabet org sent the new champ his personal belt/belts.

                Maybe Groves was on the same flight. Saudi Arabia the worst place youd stick around in to drown your sorrows. Same with Smiths entourage, must have got the 1st flight out of there to party.

                  that's because most live just outside the airport in cardboard boxes and need to get warm late evening and early mornings

                    What's your problem, man? Are you a trophy fetishist or something?

                    Just in case, that was not a disparaging remark to the win of Smith, who I like and picked to knock out Groves, thus cashing a decent lump.
