He’s desperately trying to deflect with conspiracy theories! Nothing new nowadays! Only his fans and a few idiots are gonna believe him. He’s fucked his career and I hope he gets a long ban as well. Couldn’t be bothered to make weight, couldn’t try to come in clean for the biggest fight of his...
That’s combat sports as a whole unfortunately, not just boxing. At least with this event there’s a very good undercard still happening. Zhang vs wilder is still a pretty good headline fight
What has he got left in the tank though. I’d definitely pick the fighter that fought beterbiev to beat benevidez if he was anywhere near his best. However you gotta wonder how much that beating took out of him and he’s been retired ever since. I’m surprised to even see him back in the ring tbh...
I think zhang is (on paper) a favourable match up as he’s a big lumbering giant with slow feet and a huge head to aim at. The issue though is zhang is so much better as a boxer, many levels above! and he almost hits as hard as wilder. He’s longer, is a southpaw and has a better chin. He’ll take...
Deontay wilder blaming his walkout suit draining his energy, and accusing his own coach of drugging him between rounds against fury (fight 2). Oh, he also accused fury of having his fist set in the neck of the glove and he was also holding egg weights during the fight. No mma fighter has ever...
It’s as bad a take as I’ve ever seen on here. You can’t fight guys who won’t fight you. It’s not hard to read between the lines when you look at his resume compared to his peers, who are only just starting to fight amongst each other after years of posturing and cherry picks! Add to that he’s...
If Garcia missed weight then the belt isn’t on the line as far as I’m aware?? Haney should’ve lost his belts against Loma, fuckin horrible hometown robbery. I don’t think he should lose them here because Garcia didn’t bother making weight
I gotta say on a personal level this may be the best boxing card ever! Even Willy Hutchinson vs spider Richards (the most low key fight in the card) should be a really good, competitive fight.
Outside of the 2 main fights We’ve got 2 genuine top 10 unbeaten MWs facing off, hrgovic vs Dubois...
The difference is the guy standing in the opposite corner. Hes levels above everyone beterbiev has fought since Gvozdyk. He’s got better feet and is quicker than anyone he’s fought as a pro. Losing a bit of speed/reflexes could be the difference in winning/losing in this fight. So age could...
Common sense! He’s 39 years old, he’s almost certainly outside his physical prime. Are there any other current dominant champs close to his age?
In a fight between 2 ‘elite’ fighters, where small margins are likely to be the difference, age could absolutely be a factor.
im picking bivol for the exact reasons you state. I think age is a huge factor in this fight as well. 1 guys in his prime, the other just past it. Beterbievs had physically harder fights as well. I think bivol wins fairly clearly though I not brave enough to put money on a fight when I’m backing...
This is all about who lands big first. Parker has one of the sturdiest chins in the division and only just survived. If zhang catches wilder as clean as he did Parker, the fight will be over. Wilder’s not particularly durable as we saw in the Fury fights
On paper, this should be a decent match...
probably looks the same. Close but a clear win for usyk. I doubt usyks sticks around long after the fury fight and no one wants to see this for a 3rd time. Joshua vs fury is the only fight we need to see
Fury coming in very lean (relative to his usual fight weight). To me that means he’s gonna look to out box usyk on the outside and no doubt tie him up when he’s within reach. That’s his best chance to me, light and quick but he still has the size to outmuscle usyk when he needs to.
He’s also...
Wilder spent his whole career avoiding contenders and dangerous fights. Only stepped up when he thought he was facing damaged goods. There was no way this fight was gonna happen, I’m surprised anyone believed this rumour. Eddie Hearn said this was all nonsense about a month ago
