[Lenny Rider]

Frank Warren says it‘s a game changer, I just wonder if Hulk Hogan is on the undercard?

Well they like their big tents in Saudi don't they. Will be totally apt for this complete circus.

 

[Da Man Clay]

Boxing in its continued spiral of ceasing to be relevant

By gamechanger I take it he means some bullshit wrestling/boxing pantomime hybrid.

Edit : just read under the headline …..that’ll be a yes

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Boxing's claim to be a serious sport is currently on the ropes taking a flurry of upper cuts and body blows with it's legs looking alarmingly unable to take it's weight.

Well the heavyweight division is anyway

Former UFC heavyweight champion Ngannou, 36, has no professional record in boxing.

"All I will say to Tyson for now is he better dance in that ring because if I touch him, he's going to sleep."


He'll be joining the rest of the PPV audience then.

[Questions]

Fury keeps avoiding me as well.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

As I said in another thread, everyone can see through Tyson Fury now. He could easily make a fight with Usyk or AJ…but he avoids them.

 

[METALMICKY]

What a pointless escapade! The skills required to box in MMA are very different to that required in boxing alone.

Ngannou has a vague punchers chance but that is it. Personally I'd prefer to see them fight under MMA rules. What a glorious sight it would be to have Fury kicked to the head, wrestled to the canvas for some elbow based ' ground and pound ' and then choked unconscious or made to tap. And all this since people have previously noted he's clearly ducking AJ and Uysk. And why he's ducking AJ is a mystery as he's by far the better boxer

 

[Normal Rob]

Nothing new about it...

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Why is it that the second someone mentions Tyson Fury l immediately think of Palace?

Must be the pikey in him l guess.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Having said I definitely wouldn’t I might have. It’s this or Michael Macintyre.

Martin Bakole is a sniper’s dream. I’ve seen slimmer people in an Accrington Stanley crowd.

Not sure about clashing with Michael MacIntyre, ring walks are not expected until around 10:45pm sp more a clash with MOTD

The Adeleye fight and the Parker fight will be better than the main farce. I’m far more interested in them

 

[Questions]

I’ve loved a lot of Fury’s fights but probably won’t bother. Anyway I’ve just had a 2nd Captain Morgan’s with American Dry so it’s a longcwayvacwsy
