    Fair play to Hunter here.

    I think Usyk will go far in the HW division after seeing this

    Pm.please thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,132 ✭✭✭✭normanoffside


    Povetkin of old would have stopped Hunter.
    I don't see Hunter going too far in the HW's. Too small and too easy to hit.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,132 ✭✭✭✭normanoffside

    Could you all please stop spamming the thread?

    I'd send you my stream lads, but it will probably die once it gets to the main event like it usually does. I think the stream is probably provided by Matchroom.

    Float fight ? wtf ? Shur it's 8.30 now the ring walk was supposed to be 8.45. Why is there a need for a float fight?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,756 ✭✭✭Brock Turnpike


    Would also be open to getting a link if there's one knocking around please.

    Says the man quoting 6 people...


    Draw is a kinda fair result there tbh, good scrap in the end. Another young heavyweight that couldn't get past the big Russian.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,205 ✭✭✭Gringo180


    Povetkin is a class act.

    Agreed, can't argue with the cards. I had it as maybe 1 point to Povetkin, but a draw is defo a fair result.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,047 ✭✭✭Jamiekelly


    Once I seen that one of the judges was Russian I knew Povetkin was going to get a win from him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,132 ✭✭✭✭normanoffside


    A draw is fair. I don't see either as serious contenders.
    Hunter should go back to Cruiser weight.

    Ruiz is coming in light tonight, I thought they said that he was heavier than the last time. ;-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,762 ✭✭✭✭Inquitus

    They said he was a stone heavier yesterday, but now tonight they are saying he is coming in light, not sure what the story is!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,766 ✭✭✭✭Francie Barrett


    Am I the only one shocked at Ruiz being 2/1 to win this? He was able to take AJ's power last time out, and anything he threw back hurt AJ bad. With AJ lighter, he certainly won't be hitting harder than before, so is surely vulnerable here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,183 ✭✭✭jobless


    If Joshua loses tonight there'll be no more beats or lynxs ads for him


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,415 ✭✭✭generalgerry


    Rule for future fights: A room full of bewildered arabs is no craic at all.

    Josh looks in incredible shape. I think he's brave to take the rematch, I hope he is rewarded for his bravery. But God, he looked so fragile in the first fight didn't he, and Ruiz took his toughest punches without much problem.

    I thought Adam Smith would be doing the commentary?


  • Registered Users Posts: 562 ✭✭✭keeponrockin


    Sorry for being annoying but could someone pm me a link..id really like to see Ruiz prove first time round was not a fluke! Thanks

    The Neil Diamond breaks out, Arabs utterly clueless :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,342 ✭✭✭Bobby Baccala


    This is dire there's about 20 people singing along pull the plug


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,909 ✭✭✭Morrison J


    Why is this a thing ffs. On with the fight.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,369 ✭✭✭robwen


    It's so weird


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,417 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Anyone with a stream?


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,880 ✭✭✭squinn2912


    AJ looking nervous


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,628 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    More atmosphere in Whitehall bingo hall, FFS!

    Joshua looks terrified.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,798 ✭✭✭✭DrumSteve


    They keep saying there is a great atmosphere... But I'm not seeing it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,766 ✭✭✭✭Francie Barrett


    Could they make the walkout any longer? :D

    Personally I backed AJ but to be honest the is one throws out more questions than answers. It’ll be an interesting fight if nothing else.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,909 ✭✭✭Morrison J


    Joshua nervous as ****. Eyes looking watery.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,798 ✭✭✭✭DrumSteve


    Jaysus thought Andy grew his hair out for a minute there


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,880 ✭✭✭squinn2912


    Ruiz looks composed but this could all go out the window after ding dong


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,415 ✭✭✭generalgerry


    Very odd atmosphere. I was more nervous and excited about the fight during the week, but I can't get into it with the strangeness of it all. I half expect them to link arms in the middle of the ring, the lights to dim, and them both to start singing Pennies From Heaven together.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,369 ✭✭✭robwen


    Let's hope there's more life in the boxing than there is in the crowd
