Cheers. Still can't find a replay....

[Toffee]

Yeah it was me that called you out on your crap. Because it remains crap.

TBRB removed Klitschko from the number 1 ranking before the Joshua fight due entirely to Fury not fulfilling the rematch. After Joshua beat him they were ranked 1 and 2 again.

Ruiz was ranked 1 when Joshua...

[Toffee]

I missed the fight and can't find a replay. Is anyone clear on what actually happened? This report isn't clear either.

Was it stopped because of the cuts? Or was Aliev disqualified for repeated headbutts? Or was Aliev disqualified for his reaction to a point being taken?

Seems...

[Toffee]

You and your mate can carry on blowing each other. Nash out. Boxingisgreat out. Sounds like you're both out. Good for you.

Both Harrison and Campbell won gold medals. They've done that.

Audley turned pro at 30 and made money. Did his job and got paid....

[Toffee]

Is Wilder entertaining? The majority of his fights involve him standing two metres away from his opponent. Bad fights, good highlights. But I tune into actual fights.

As for Fury, he's easy to dislike....

[Toffee]

Capitalise it all you want, it doesn't make it more correct.

Amateur boxing is a sport. Professional boxing is prizefighting and entertainment first and a sport second. What kind of sport allows you to choose your own opponents?

While I respect the competitors, I couldn't care...

[Toffee]

Yeah Fury's a better fighter than Wilder. Easy.

I've seen fights with real contempt in the build up. I've seen fights with real respect in the build up. I've seen fights with clearly fake contempt in the build up.

I don't think I've ever seen one that was so pathetic in the...

[Toffee]

Boxing is all about the pros? Not to the amateurs it isn't. Plenty turn pro because they have achieved their sporting targets and now want to earn some money.

Audley did make a lot of money from his pro career. Job done. Shame he blew it.

Could Audley have been a top 30 Pro?...

[Toffee]

So in your mind both fighters will do it in the UK and Bob Arum will do it in the UK. But Hearn will make them all do it elsewhere?

Do you actually think your thoughts before posting them?...

[Toffee]

He's fighting Odom isn't he. For 6 minutes in 23oz gloves and headgear....

[Toffee]

Agreed. Usyk is a heavyweight and a very good boxer. It's a really great fight....

[Toffee]

He didn't mention Tyson. And he didn't say a smaller guy can't win.

He said if a smaller guy fights a bigger guy of the same level... then the bigger guy usually wins.

You've made yourself look a bit of a donut here by misunderstanding a very, very simple statement.
...

[Toffee]

"Screw mandatories". Quote from man who's fighter has one alphabet belt and has never fought a mandatory.

In any case, if Joshua gets past Usyk he will have dealt with his mandatories. And it would be a Unification. Mandatories would be set aside.

So basically it's...

[Toffee]

I've said for a while that I see this back in court.

With the fight announced, tickets on sale, and only a couple of months away, it's sad that the most surprising turn of events would be for Fury to actually step in the ring....

[Toffee]

I don't think it's fear.

But I'm confident Fury doesn't want to fight Joshua. Or Wilder for that matter....

[Toffee]

I'll go with one that never gets called a quit but it was. Tyson v Lewis.

He could have got up from that shot.

But it was completely beaten out of him. He should never have been sent out for that round in a fight where he'd been beaten physically, tactically, mentally, on...

[Toffee]

I agree.

It's far more likely that Fury's team, desperately looking forward to the fight, forgot to engage any kind of COVID safe rules in the final stages of camp. And likely that they had not even heard of COVID, given that Fury and Parker (both confirmed to have tested positive) were...

[Toffee]

As much as I'd love it to be true...

Finkel is very clearly talking about during the arbitration process. The obvious answer is that Fury's team were adamant they would win. You don't offer settlement on something you're that confident about.

Regardless, we know for sure that...

[Toffee]

Maybe Fury beats Joshua. But he'll have to actually get in the ring to prove it....

[Toffee]

You can make a case for him beating Fury, Usyk, and Joshua. I'd disagree; it's a very long shot. But fair enough if you believe that.

The idea that Wilder will suddenly start taking on all comers is the more ridiculous bit....
