Hursty Old-Dutch why would he dodge AJ? Ruiz beat AJ after eating Mc’Ds for training, Fury would spank him
Old-Dutch He’s been doing it for years. The fight has been on the table for him for years but he and his camp always demand too much money / deals that they know won’t be cut. If he really wanted to take the fight he would have by now.
Hursty As much as Fury is a clown, he doesn’t seem to be of the character that would shirk any fight win or lose
Hursty Old-Dutch Yeah I see your point, who knows what goes on behind closed doors. I know where my money would be if they do fight though!
Hursty Smallman1 No I think Fury would be too much for him, he just won’t give in. He’d bully him in the ring like he did Wilder. I like AJ but after that Ruiz fight he lost a lot of kudos, I mean come on no way should have lost to him
Smallman1 Bloody hell, this is tragic - https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/boxing/chris-eubank-son-sebastian-dies-24502547
Hursty https://www.skysports.com/share/12355444 You have to laugh, why do these grade A weapons get any coverage?
LT42 I saw a pic of Fury yesterday and it looks like his legs are getting smaller, his top half was tilted over under the strain and he looked like a fully shaved Chewbacca.
RichM Anyone watch this? https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/boxing/evander-holyfield-vitor-belfort-jake-paul-b1918627.html Sounds such a bizarre event & Trump commentating 😂
LT42 RichM I think it’s cruel and dangerous if I’m honest. Like most things money is the only motivation, its just sad to see a titan of the sport be humiliated like that. If the Governing bodies weren’t so corrupt they’d do the right thing and stop this shit.
RichM Completely agree, an old legend will die if they keep trying to get them to fight later on in life. It’s a sad thing for the sport
LT42 Yeah, the whole umbrella of boxing is decrepit and filled with leeches and scumbags. Next month those 2 big donkeys will fight for millions of dollars and there’s journeymen who have to work on building sites just to keep the lights on. Its a shame because I enjoy watching the likes of Canelo and Linares but I just can’t stomach this new era of circus fighting.
wrongun LT42 Couldn’t agree more On a side note the Eggington v Jkitou fight show on Channel 5 was an epic [https://www.boxingscene.com/eggington-promoter-awe-boxer-throwing-1317-punches-against-jkitou--160557]
Hursty So who’s looking forward to Joshua v Usyk? I do like watching Usyk, he has some serious skills and the mentality to back it up. Lots of respect going into the ring and an unbeaten legacy on the line, Joshua will have his work cut out
Hursty alistair Interesting, how so? Too much power? Usyk is a fairly handy technician, landing punches will be the hard task for Joshua
