Boxing 2018

[Aventus]

Weird that womens boxing is so shit when womens MMA is half decent.

If you are comparing prospects, Ritson looks light years ahead of Cordina.

 

I think Ritson is probably the most exciting fighter in Britain at the moment but he can't fight with his face as he goes forward like he sometimes does.

Does anyone know how Ryan Farag got on in Spain last night ? Can't seem to find it anywhere.

BoxRec says he won by TKO in the 5th round.

Brief highlights here:

 

[sir roger]

Reading on BBC about a new Irish world champion. A  lad from Portlaoise called TJ Doheny has won Frampton's old strap ,the IBF Super Bantamweight one, by doing it the hard way deposing a Japanese guy ( Iwasa ) in Tokyo.

 

I admit I had never heard of him but it appears he wasn't picked for Ireland in the 2008 Olympics and emigrated to Sydney where he has fought ever since.

 

Looks like a potential good unification match up with Ryan Burnett.

He beat Frampton as an amateur as well.

Are you going, tonight?

 

The press conference with Fury and Wilder shouting was obviously hyped and staged, but it was fucking gold.

 

The build up to their fight will be over the top, a real circus and funny as fuck.

 

I cannot wait.

Footage of Wilder chasing Billy Joe Saunders out of a Nandos in Belfast doing the rounds.

 

Appears Saunders through half a lemon and herb chicken at him.

That's pretty funny if true. Would loved Wilder to have decked the prick.

Apparently, it's not Wilder himself, but a member of his entourage.

 

Must say, that I was absolutely gutted when I found out.

 

If the WBC heavyweight champion of the world was in Belfast and had the WBO Middleweight champion of the world throw chicken at him in Nando's then subsequently chased that man down in said restaurant... well, I don't know how it could possibly get any better than that.

 

Having said that, it might get better than that, tomorrow. Shannon Briggs is on his way:

[Byrnie]

I was not going to go as there is a Fleadh fesitival on in my town. But now I'm going to try and get up.

 

Fury's 'fans' could kick off and cause carnage though.

 

Briggs, Saunders, Wilder, Fury and chicken. What a mix!

 

 

 

Saunders went over to say hello to Wilder, offered his hand and Wilder askes him 'did you call me a racist cunt'?

 

Saunders said yeah and Wilder sprung up. That's how it kicked off.

Haha! That second part is wild; Fury and Wilder with 4 months of build up before their fight is going to be like nothing we've ever seen before. The face off! The 24/7! The press conferences!

 

Two giant, undefeated men, with a legitimate claim to the crown who are both full blown nutters and talk that shit.

 

It's kind of hard to put this into words for other people, but when you go to the boxing and a traveller is on the card it can get really hairy. That's not to say all travellers spend their days looking for fights, but at boxing events there tends to be a traveller contingent who can get down right inhospitable.

 

Stay safe, man.

[Lee909]

Im happy that Fury and Wilder looks to be set. Simply because it should stop AJ team holding all the cards. The winner will hold the QBC and Lineal workd titles. Fury was also the last Ring Champion. Sets things uo nucely with AJ wanting everything his own way.

[Mook]

What time will the Fury fight be on at tonight?

[moof]

What time will the Fury fight be on at tonight?

8:30/9 ish I’d guess. Is he the headliner, or frampton?

[Bjornebye]

Frampton

[Kevin D]

What time will the Fury fight be on at tonight?

Best to switch Bt on at 8:15.

 

Good chance the Fury fight will be a showcase but the best flyweight in the world is fighting a pretty good Irish lad for the title. Good Ko record and they both come forward, genuine 50/50, so should have decent action.

[Elite]

It'll be interesting to see how good Fury is tonight but then again, hes never pleasing on the eye but we'll at least see if his timing and footwork are back

[Elite]

Cracking fight this

[Dr Nowt]

Wonder if Wilder will have half a chicken in his hand when he storms the ring tonight.

[Special K]

Did I hear right that this Warburton bloke has been beaten over 100 times?

[Elite]

Gazza giving Wilder a few cheeky digs then, obviously been taught well off Moaty.
