    People seem to have forgotten that Paulie always had hand issues while wearing gloves. Without gloves will be even worse.

    Obviously Paulie is by far the better boxer, but if you've an electric shock going up your arms every time you land, it could make things interesting.

    I thought the norm was to have two "fair play" men not one? Although at least fair play men tend to actually break it up and make it a bit safer!


    I wouldn't consider it boxing. Would I be interested in it as a "sport"? I'd have to say no. Similar to UFC for me. But there is a novelty factor I suppose. I did see a few interviews and your man Lobov comes across as sound enough whereas Mr. magic man comes across as a bit of an arsehole.



    I suppose it's like the time the Dublin footballer (was it Johnny Magee?) boxed the Australian snooker player , Quentin something-or-other, in the stadium. Just a novelty.



    I read the comments about Lobov having some advantage in terms of no breaks being called and some wrestling allowed. But he'd have to take a fair few punches to close that distance to get in to wrestle. And there doesn't even seem to be a corner in that ring, so nowhere to to be caught or cut off. You have to imagine that Malinaggi would just keep dancing away and catch Lobov with a few each time he comes in. Maybe after a round or two when Lobov is cut up. Malinaggi would plant the feet and do extra damage. If it goes that far.



    Personally, I wouldn't allow it if it was up to me. But it's not. Each to their own!

    You appear to very little, if anything, about combat sports so best to keep your opinion to yourself

    Oh, it actually works on my other computer, just not the one hooked up to the tv.. I'll stick the main event up on that one. Cheers for your help.. Enjoy!

    Press F11 and then when the address bar disappears, hold the Ctrl key and toggle the + key to zoom in and the - key to zoom out.

    I use that on the Betfair site which doesn't have a full screen option.

    I figured it out anyway.. The 'Fite' site allows full screen, but the official site doesn't seem to. Cheers for the help, lads.. Looking forward to the main! Would love the unlikely event of an Artem win

    Anthony Rumble Johnson just posted this on instagram.

    "Rumour has it that Paulie had something on his hands and got caught.
    Commission and president of Bare Knuckle seen rushing to the back where the locker rooms were once they heard about the incident...
    Came back with a disappointed look on their face!!!"

    I don't know if that's just BS considering Rumble works for BKFC and wants to throw some dirt at Paulie but sounds like something Paulie might do.

    Paulie 'The Red Viper' Malignagi was caught applying Manticore venom to the outside of his wraps.

    Hopefully Artem 'The Mountain' Lobov gets an unlikely win here.

    "Time to knuckle up" My god, this event is tacky! Hoping for a good dustup nonetheless.

    Paulie looking more comfortable in RD.1. Ref allowing nothing in the clinch, advantage Paulie.

    Artem gave a very good account of himself there, win or lose.

    It was a close fight though, wouldn’t even be surprised if Artem nicked it.

    And to think Paulie was almost certainly using this as a way to get a Conor fight. Conor would murder him bareknuckle or regular boxing judging by that performance.
