There are some good fights coming up on Sky over the festive period which may be of interest to some, full schedule here:

I'm particularly looking forward to the Inoue fight, surely in the top 3 P4P fighters out there and fighting on Boxing Day rather aptly.

Jesus christ. What was the ref doing letting that go after the 2nd knock down. Ngannou was clearly done and all the ref did was line him up.for AJ to belt him.
Ngannou played a stulid game in that 1st round by changing stance and won a stupid prize.

Hell of a result for Dubois. There's no doubt that Joshua isn't the force that he once was (or was thought to be, depending on which school you subscribe to), but demolishing him like that is still a real feather in his cap. Deserves a shot at actually winning a world championship belt for real, although whether he'll be even able to get one through the contractual fuckery of Usyk/Fury and his inevitable Joshua rematch is a different matter.

Re: Boxing
unfortunately, that's said many times for boxers...who then keep coming back. He's got a glass jaw I think.

Re: Boxing
Just watched the highlights and have to disagree on the glass jaw - he gets absolutely leathered by Dubois on several occasions and manages to fight on into the 5th round somehow, so he's able to take punishment, but his defence was just too easy for Dubois to get through and a heavyweight's going to take you down if you keep letting him hit you in the face.

Re: Boxing
well he went down like a sack of spuds in the 5th with a right cross to the iron jaw, but then I'm no expert. I'll bow to your pugilist knowledge.Puja wrote: ↑Thu Sep 26, 2024 3:10 pmJust watched the highlights and have to disagree on the glass jaw - he gets absolutely leathered by Dubois on several occasions and manages to fight on into the 5th round somehow, so he's able to take punishment, but his defence was just too easy for Dubois to get through and a heavyweight's going to take you down if you keep letting him hit you in the face.

The presentation of the the Taylor serrano fight was the most biased thing I've ever seen
Shouldn't have been a surprise when they showed tysons bare arse in a pre fight interview
I didn't get past Rd 1 of the tyson fight

Re: Boxing
I’m sorry, but Fury is just so fat. He was running off fumes the last 2 rounds. Everyone saying it was a great spectacle and I’m just reminded why I don’t like heavyweight boxing…
