    That ref shouldn’t ref anymore fights!
    Should the ref have stopped Dakota Linger's fight with Josue Vargas earlier? 🤔🥊

    Personally, I have no real interest in the Khan/Pacquiao fight. It’s not even for the full version of WBA title. I think I speak for the overwhelming majority of boxing fans/media etc worldwide when I say that - Khan vs BROOK is ‘THE’ fight we all want. Get it on lads!!👊🏻

    I picked you to win and thought after those first 4 Rds you were going to get the stoppage. I was baffled that you didn’t step on the gas and was happy to just coast. IMO you threw away those middle rounds by doing so little! Looking the part doesn’t win Rds, punches landed does

    Boxing going down the pan imo. Promoters refuse to work together, sanctioning bodies not even trying to hide their corruption. Prospects only box a few times a year. 2 novices boxing on PPV getting more coverage than contenders… I don’t even know how you turn it around 🤷🏻‍♂️😢

    Personally I don’t want to see GGG/Canelo 3. Canelo swerved him for 3 years, robs him blind in their first fight, probably should’ve got the 2nd one although it was very close. And now how many years have gone by!? GGG an all time great but time to go out at the top IMO🥊

    I can’t remember a night of boxing like that in a long time. Right from the start of the show, every single fight was brilliant. Pure action, dramatic KO’s, what a night!!

    Got 0 interest in these YouTubers boxing now. Was ok once or twice as a novelty. It doesn’t anger me, they’ve built followings mostly by acting the goat so good luck to them. When I watch sport it’s to see the pinnacle or prospects. If I wanted to watch clowns I’d go the circus.

    I don’t know all the facts but what I will say is, as far as I know, it’s @DillianWhyte who insists on & pays for out of his own purse, for VADA testing to be carried out for all his fights..so with that in mind, I really don’t think he’s knowingly taken something he shouldn’t

    I’d have had no problem with the corner pulling him out with the eye, on the basis of hes 23, long career ahead etc... but for the fighter to step away, take a knee and sit it out... not good

    The PEDs in boxing won’t go away until there is ZERO tolerance. In fact it’s gonna get a lot worse..cos it’ll get like the cycling where people think there’s no point competing unless you’re on them cos you’re gonna be at such a disadvantage. #FuckPEDs

    Welcome to the world - Molleigh Marie Macklin who weighed in at 8lbs 15oz after 26 hours of labour. Sarah was a warrior! Wanted to throw the towel in a few times but was guided through it by a strong team in her corner!! Lol❤️🙏🏻

    Without knowing all the details, it’s starting to look like Fury doesn’t fancy this fight. I picked Fury to beat Usyk but maybe he’s not confident. He’s happy facing big hitters but maybe he knows the speed of Usyk could give him nightmares. What other reason could there be 🤷🏻‍♂️
