Davies then turned his attention to Azim’s trainer, McGuigan, and decided to taunt him by presenting him a signed copy of Carl Frampton’s autobiography – a fighter he and his father Barry had a well-documented legal dispute with.

 

“Where is Shane [McGuigan]? I’ve got a present for you guys,” Davies joked. “I’ve got a book from Carl Frampton, hand-signed by Mr. Carl Frampton himself.”

 

Davies then taunted McGuigan further moments before squaring off with Azim: He removed his jacket and revealed a large t-shirt with the face of Frampton. Azim again kept his cool and laughed Davies’ antics off.

So what are we expecting from Joshua vs Dubois then? Apart from both of them making a fortune from PPV in what in years gone past would've been an undercard fight, or an eliminator for a shot at a proper world Heavyweight champion.

Instincts tell me that Joshua should and will win behind the jab and by KO 6-9 if he decides to get adventurous.

Joshua KO would be my bet as well but let's face it, he's not fought anyone since Usyk battered him, so the gun shy version may come back against a live puncher like Dubious. So it could be a cautious approach from Joshua and a dull points win.

 

Ideally, Dubois puts it on him and flattens the cunt.

Sorry Danny but you quit tonight. That aint "trying your best". Glad it ended early, by far the worst fight I've seen this year.

 

Crowd were ringing the boos after 2 mins of the first round.

[Kevin D]

Watched the first three rounds of the Canelo fight, before turning it off. The skill disparity was just too high. Canelo’s choice of opponents since Bivol has been uninspiring to say the least. 
 

I decided to rewatch Vasquez/Marquez instead.

Sounds like they’ve bought the WBC and WBA, are about to buy The Ring and tried to buy boxrec. Alarming stuff.

It's hard to compete with or say no to someone who has unlimited resources, is willing to spend them, and doesn't have to balance a budget. And the Saudis keep spending to enlarge their influence in boxing. One informed source says that Riyadh Season recently agreed to pay $2,000,000 to the World Boxing Council and $1,500,000 to the World Boxing Association as sponsorship fees.
 

When John Sheppard declined to sell BoxRec.com to Saudi interests earlier this year, he was hit by a wave of hostile activity that is still being sorted out. 
 

Turki Alalshikh is also said to be on the verge of acquiring The Ring, which would give him control over the magazine's championship belts and rankings.

The final nail in the coffin. Sport is fucked with these pricks.

Really looking forward to Saturday. Some excellent fights and the main event is very intriguing.

 

Dubois is a decent price. Tempted to lump £500 on him.

Yeah me too. His behaviour after Usyk embarrassed him was a disgrace.

Nah, he's right.

The spirit of Dan Dan lives on.

[Remmie]

Really not sure who I want to win. Like 'em both. Suspect Joshua will outfox Dubois but wouldn't be surprised if Dubois wins.

[Lee909]

Dubois is a robot

Makes Frank Bruno look agile 

 

Joshua in a borefest

[lifetime fan]

What’s been going on with Dubois and Don Charles? 

[Elite]

Atmosphere is shite here, not helped by the stadium being mostly empty not long since. Filling up now but feels very flat.

[Bjornebye]

94000 apparently. Obviously won’t fill up till Liam comes on at 9. Half of them age only there to see Liam anyway

Yeah do it you fucking ruler. 
 

 

Clear that the broadcast is Saudi and they don’t want to show too much of the size of the stadium.

Im surprised he’s not been ironed out. Pure heart

I'm not a boxing fan, but I took a look on the website I use for my football streams.

It presented me with this:

I'm on a Mac with pop-up blocker and not a phone/tablet. So hope that they work for you.

Getting bullied big time but won't give in, can't fault that.

[Bjornebye]

[Elite]

That scorecard! Jesus wept.
