Yep, will have to stay up for this one. I haven't been as up for a fight in a while as I am for this one

What I really want is for Loma to be cracked hard and clean....just to see what happens...

Hope it's not another 10-12 rds of Loma not getting tagged clean, and wearing down his foe with his array of tricks....it bores me a lil bit...albeit it's what he does very well

Can Lopez tag and really hurt/discourage Loma from committing.....Loma knowing that the next hard shot could flatten him type fight?

I'd expect Teo to be circa 142-143 in the ring, and Loma to be 137-139....

This seems to be the only thread I have seen it mentioned in so far.

How do you reckon this case will go?
Barry always came across as a decent man to me on tv but on some forums they say he isn’t.

Anyone with inside knowledge on what went on here?

Nov 21 was the date originally for Spence-Garcia..

Anyway, it’s happening. Great match

Garcia-Campbell....meh..

Frampton tweeted tonight that the Herring fight will happen this year..

Will be an interesting fight when it happens. Herring isn't very good but he'll dwarf Frampton in the ring. Think I'd favour Carl but tough one to gauge. Big shame it'll be behind closed doors.

Anyone know what time the ring walk will be for Loma Lopez?
5ish is it?

Las Vegas 8 hours behind. I’d say 5.45

Yeah I wouldn’t bother setting your alarm before 4:30am. ESPN have said they aren't holding the ring walks until the end of a college football match which starts at 1am our time. That'll last three hours minimum anyway.

Cheers!
5 is normal time for getting up so grand

hbhook · 17-10-2020 10:24pm

I think Loma gets hit with a couple of big ones early and then goes into hyperdrive. Not even FiteTv are carrying this which I thought they would. I know Eir are.

Episode one from Showtime for Davis v Santa Cruz

Watched that few nights ago..

Tank been through a lot in his short life!

walshb · 21-10-2020 9:04pm

What is the take on Tank Davis v LSC Saturday week?

I was going for Tank via KO, and probably early..

But tell you, if he can’t get LSC out of there, he better be prepared to be fit as a fiddle and ready to work all night to earn a points win..

Agreed . I think he takes him out though.

Morrison J · 22-10-2020 4:46pm

Really looking forward to that fight. Davis seems motivated for this so hard to look past him. Will be interesting to see how Santa Cruz fights. I think he might try box behind the jab like he did in the second Frampton fight and try frustrate Davis. If he fights in his usual come forward style I think he's getting knocked out.

Morrison J · 22-10-2020 7:34pm

Sounds like Mick Conlan v Isaac Dobgoe is a done deal for December. Massive step up for Mick that.

Big time. Dogboe can really hit. This will be a huge chin test.

walshb · 22-10-2020 8:23pm

Read that..

Dogboe will be tiny compared to Conlan..

Mick has ALL the physical advantages...

4 inches likely in height..at these smaller weights that is huge!

This expected alongside Fury. Dec 5...Carlos Takam his possible foe!

Mick is so easy to hit though and I wouldn't have confidence in his chin at all. Dogboe will nail him at some point, probably pretty early.

Yes, that is a possibility, but if Mick stands tall, the effects of having to punch up won’t see the shots being as dangerous...

Although, there will be times where he may simply get caught flush and clean..

Morrison J · 22-10-2020 8:34pm

Think Mick fights the most conservative fight ever, uses his range and those Top Rank judges to his advantage. He'll be tough to beat. Dogboe has a serious engine though and could see it getting a bit tricky for Mick down the stretch. Haven't seen anything to suggest Mick will struggle gas tank or chin wise yet anyway. If he's glass to the body like his brother Jamie was though we'll find out here. Dogboe a very good body puncher.

walshb · 22-10-2020 9:03pm

Mick seems to have a very good engine.

If his chin is solid (and I have a feeling it is not) then he should cake walk this...

It may be a step up in terms of level of opponent, but still a clearly smaller man..

Bit like a MW meeting very weak MW opposition and then meets a good WW fighter..

Mick has not faced anyone decent yet, or anyone decent and bigger yet...

normanoffside · 23-10-2020 3:56pm

BJS vs Martin Murray on December 4th. Terrible fight.
I though Murray had retired?

Horrendous. Have to say Matchroom/Sky have been really poor through this pandemic. Even the PPV cards are desperate poor quality.

Warren outdoing them giving us Joyce v Dubois not on PPV and by the sounds of it a great card in December with Fury, Conlan v Dogboe and Yarde v Arthur.

walshb · 25-10-2020 3:40pm

Next week’s 25 euro card is pathetic!

iebamm2580 · 26-10-2020 10:36am

i think conlan will be in trouble against dogboe, hes tenacaious and doesn't take a backward step and could hurt conlan whose lack of power will be no deterrent to dogboe.

Ordering the Chisora PPV for Saturday night. First time ordering a PPV, do sky just add the price of the ppv to next month's bill or take the money from bank account when the ppv starts?

Surely you mean the Usyk PPV......

Sky just add it to your next bill.

fitzparker · 28-10-2020 9:42pm

I understand companies are trying to recoup alot of money lost the past few months but boxing is seriously gone a disgrace, and recently aimed at out and out casuals to buy a PPV.

Loma fight ( only picked up by Eir a week before)
Tank Davis fight (not on UK/irish TV)
Inoue fight ( not on UK/Irish TV)

In contrast
Usyk Card €30 PPV on Sky
Tyson V jones Junior "Exhibition" fight Similar price on BT PPV
DASN announce £1.99 monthy subscription (which is great) but underlined the AJ V Pulev is not available on it for irish and UK market, why? cause Sky want our PPV money

its really bad, the actual fights that mean something id pay the PPV for, the poxy sky throwing content down your throat every 10 minutes to make you believe this is a "big" fight is what's a joke.

In the early years that Sky reintroduced PPV, they somewhat justified the cost with stacked undercards. They've even done away with that now, throw in Katie Taylor or Dave Allen and away you go.

Agreed . Sneaking a points win without getting caught . How long will that last as he takes steps towards the top of the division .

Wuff Wuff · 29-10-2020 12:53pm

i see Dazn is being launched for UK and Ireland

will show campbell Garcia but not AJ Pulev

£1.99 so probably €2.99 here

fitzparker · 29-10-2020 4:37pm

Channel 5 just announced they are showing Davis V Santa Cruz

Think you can get it in "other channels" on Sky but don't think it can be recorded

Holy Trinitys Michael Marlow wrote a letter and sent @usykaa a Hurley stick as a gift ahead of his big fight. Usyk signed his vest and sent a video back.
When asked by other boxers where he got the “Irish stick” from Usyk replied I got it from a boy called Mickey in Ireland ðŸ‡®ðŸ‡ª https://t.co/62SgL2rNtO
