    Broner stripped of the world title. Missed weight and didn't bother showing up to reweigh, what a bell end.

    What makes him a bigger clown is the fact he missed it by 0.4 lbs. I know the guy should be fighting at 147 but if he shaved the beard and took a piss he'd probably lose that weight.

    Broner, what an eejit of a man like. He's also apparently wanted on a felony warrant for assaulting and robbing a man at gunpoint at a f*cking bowling alley accompanied by a posse of twats. The man strikes me as a total wally to be honest and he hasn't at all lived up to his potential.

    He truly is ghetto trash!

    another two fingers to Mayweather Promotions?
    disaster for Theophane

    Theophane odds slashed from 25/1 to 6/1. I lumped a fiver on him at 20/1 when I first heard the news. Hopefully Broner mentally and physically quits in there.

    I usually try and avoid judging boxers for their actions outside the ring but something about Broner really winds me up. The man is a professional fighter who uses a gun and a gang of mates to rob some ordinary lad at a bowling alley for God's sake. Impossible to like anything about him.

    He can't even play the black hat persona well.

    I've never liked him at all, and seeing Maidana do a number on him was majestic.

    He has no class, no character that is worth mentioning in a good light, and I can see his career going the way of the dinosaurs at this rate.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,488 ✭✭✭Andre 3000


    A Floyd/Broner fight is inevitable. The trash talking is far too fake...it's an easy fight for Floyd for 50-0, Broner gets another pay day to continue being Broner, and it might land him a few more big money fights after.

    Holy crapwhat a round.

    That was some fight. Wow.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,395 ✭✭✭Danye


    That was an unbelievable fight. Both in bitsI thought Luke got complacent. Raging!

    Cardle is moving great but cant see him sustaining this for 12 rounds. Dodd is missing badly and that sucks the energy out of you.

    Off topic but there's a big lump of an aul fella with grey hair ringside and he's shouting at people across the ring! Doing my head in!

    I'm trying to concentrate on the fight while looking for this bloke haha. I personally think Cardle is winning this easy so far. His tempo is starting to slow so we might get them trading a bit more.

    Haha don't bother mate.

    I have him winning but for a change I agree with Watt. He needs to start getting his shots off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,395 ✭✭✭Danye


    It's actually a poor fight to be honest. They look like two journeymen who took the fight for a pay day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,395 ✭✭✭Danye

    I think this is going to be tough to score, I have it 5-4 to Cardle now.

    I have it 5-4 to Dodd.

    Can't disagree with that. It's close.

    I have it as a draw now.

    Set up for a 3rd.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,395 ✭✭✭Danye


    Set up for a 3rd.

    No thanks. Haha

    Although apparently Dodd sold a ridiculous number of ticket so that might interest Hearn.

    Tough test for Rocky this. I could see him having trouble here.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,488 ✭✭✭Andre 3000


    Fielding is getting absolutely spanked here.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,488 ✭✭✭Andre 3000


    Meanwhile, unbeaten HW Robert Helenius got stunned and KOd by Johann Duhaupas, who lost to Wilder a while back. Bit of a shock that, although Helenius is a fraction of what he was.

    Anyone scoring this?

    I have Rocky winning 76 -75.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,488 ✭✭✭Andre 3000

    What round?

    6th. Only caught the last few mins myself...looked a pretty even fight but Helenius got caught with one clean shot and ended up falling around the ring trying to beat the 10 count and it was waved off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,395 ✭✭✭Danye


    I have it as a draw now. 104 a piece. All to play for.

    Could we possibly see another draw? Rebrasse shots are more eye catching but looks to be getting tired.

    Very possibly. I've scored it 114 to 113 in favour of the Frenchman.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,902 ✭✭✭✭Kristopherus


    Rebrasse was robbed

    Good scorecards in the UK for once. I guess that puts to bed the idea of Rocky Fielding as world level.

    No where near world level. None of the televised fighters tonight are anywhere near world level.

    Looking forward to Smith. I fancy him to win within 6.
