I take it Wilder Fury 2 wont happen in February now? Surely Fury will be out for 6 months to give those nasty cuts time to heal.

We'll see how good the plastic surgeon is! His cut man should be knighted so assume hes a good surgeon too.

To be fair that date is up in the air because isn't Wilder suppose to fight in October ?
He could easily get injured himself in that one ,

Really was a nasty cut. And was flowing right till the end

Something like this can end a career, as regards how well it heals, and how vulnerable it is to future connections....

Yeah for example. Shows how important cut men are.

Hey Guys... I am much more of an mma fan than a boxing fan but I do watch a lot of the heavyweight boxing fights but I am not an educated boxing fan by any means.

What do some of the boxing aficionados here think of Ben Davison? Is the criticism of him deserved?

For me its too early to say really ,

Plus being a brilliant trainer only works if you have a fighter that needs your strenghts as a trainer and is already strong at your weak points as a trainer ,

Look back at the history of boxing take the top ten trainer / fighter partnerships that are know the world over and swap the fighter around and they wouldnt be as succesful,

Would Enzo been as succesful with anyone other than Joe ?

Ward and Hu ter where made for each other

Would Flyod have got to where he did without his dad ,

Its impossible to tell , only time will tell on Ben and Tyson and if it fails it doesnt mean its just the trainers fault either

Trainers can be both underrated and overrated IMO.

The boxer does the work......

Of course, some fighters need that extra little bit to keep them fierce and focused and at their best

Trainer's main goal is to keep their man focused, hungry and passionate....

Kevin Rooney!!!!!!! Mike Tyson!!!!!

Yea it was on the way Sharp was keeping the hands up while geraghty was low down and open to that hit. When sharp closed the distance he had no idea

This boy is in trouble!

Did any of you watch the post fight commentary? Thought Joyce got a raw deal. His victory over Jennings was a very good one. I don’t think it suits either him or Dubois to have that fight they’re better off trying to fight guys off world level. Dubois in no hurry at all.

Nothing learned there. Bit of a farce really. A tomato can. Likely fighting again in December so not to wait.

UKAD will give up the case because they have no money to fight it.

I think you are right there about the Whyte situation. That seems to be what Hearn is banking on, then he'll spin it as his man was vindicated.

Regarding Dubois, looking back on his fight with Gorman, a better boxer might have countered and punished him when he left himself open at times. Maybe i'm being a bit harsh on him though, we should know in the next 18 months if he is a real threat at elite level.

Wilder vs Ortiz 2 finally confirmed for 23rd November.

Aye see that should be a decent fight but probably an earlier stoppage for Wilder

Tyson Fury on WWE I just seen. Wonder is he going wrestling or was it just a once off

nacho libre · 07-10-2019 4:26pm

He's on again tonight. It should be entertaining. It was an agreement between Fox And ESPN to build his profile ahead of the rematch with Wilder. No way will arum allow him to wrestle while he is under contract to him and ESPN. It might happen in the future,though.

ACAguy · 07-10-2019 8:17pm

It's going to be Chisora Price on Oct 26th what do people think?

Povektin Hunter on Aj card

Tyrone Spong has just been popped by Vada. Looks like the Usyk fight is off.

Eddie Hearn has said they have replacements, Why not thrown him in with Del boy ?
