Once I saw adalaide Byrd was a judge I knew it was fucked.
I could see 114-114, although I thought Moretti had it right at 115-113, but there was zero chance it was 118-110.

word. i was watching Joe Rogan's podcast of the fight and they even said before the fight that unless GGG knocks Canelo out or down watch that judge rig it, and he did.
I really dont understand how that is allowed these days or what they do about it. and it happens a LOT
Andre Ward has retired. Going out on top pound for pound with an impressive ko victory! Happy retirement to him!
De La Hoya has said he would take on Conor McGregor and take him out within two rounds.
lol, that fight does not sound appealing at all. De La Hoya can sit his old ass down.
I heard GSP vs McGregor mentioned, GSP would have to cut a lot of weight but I'd rather see that
That would be really awesome.
How bout one of these boxers step into the octagon.
That’s probably a more fair fight.
The James Toney vs Randy Couture fight wasn't very competitive, as it went straight to the ground.Quote:

Deontay is wilder than Gene and he's no monster like Young Frankenstein but he showed the heart of a champion because he was extremely hurt and tired in the 7th and 8th rounds. The guy also showed a very sturdy chin because Ortiz touched it a few times and Bronze Bomber never got dropped. Hopefully he and AJ fight later this year to unify the division. That's a 50/50 fight.
Yea Wilder is fun to watch but he has yet to fight a true class A fighter. I don’t know that there is one in the heavyweight ranks right now. Joshua is as close as it gets, these two Need to fight this year.
The light heavyweight division is pretty nice right now. Really hope Kovelev and Bivol fight sometime this year that would be a contender for fight of the year in my opinion.
Kovelev has quickly rebounded his career from that bad second outing against Ward, although I thought he won the first.
Still a top notch fighter tho who has a nice following.
Everyone is afraid of Lomachenko.
Canelo GGG should be good. Don’t think the dirty test will affect it.
Bare knuckle boxing looks to make a comeback

Anyone gonna stop Joshua or are we gonna have to wait till he gets too old?
I wanna see him vs Wilder. I think I would give Joshua the edge still, but could go either way
There's not much we can do about Joshua's camp refusing to fight Wilder. Wilder's camp tried like hell to get a fight with Joshua. Joshua's camp never made a serious offer financially. Just absurd offers that no fighter in Wilder's position would ever accept. I applaud Fury and Wilder for stepping in the ring with each other. Hope Joshua comes around to fighting the winner. Not going to hold my breath though.Quote:

that was a hell of a fight
I think overall Fury won the most rounds but I'm not mad about the split decision. I've seen way worse outcomes from judges
I was really impressed by Fury's stamina though after not boxing for years and losing over a hundred pounds for the fight
How in the hell did Fury get up off the mat in that 12th round? That man was out cold when he hit the mat! That was some undertaker shit!! Definitely looking forward to the rematch. I noticed throughout the entire fight, Fury was ducking his head down and to the right every time Wilder threw his right hand. How in the hell Wilder didn't adjust and throw that right were he was ducking to was astonishing to me. When he finally figured this out and threw it where Fury's head was going to be when it got there, he knocked Fury out in the 12th round. If Wilder's trainer wasn't telling him about that between rounds, he should be fired.
lol yeah I noticed that too. he would miss by inches on all those power punches but never adjust it. I was watching at a Dave and Busters and the building got so hype after that knock down that I assumed it was over, I couldn't believe when I looked back and they started boxing again.
cant wait for a rematch. Wilder might be in even more trouble after Fury has more time to improve
That's what makes it so interesting. I wouldn't surprised if Fury dominates every round in the rematch. Yet, I wouldn't be surprised if Wilder knocked him out quickly either.Quote:

Pacquiao shut down Broner
broner was a bum, i expected more from him.
just retire already
all of those fights that night sucked really
Easy win for Joshua tonight?
Joshua getting his ass whooped right now.
Joshua was done. Good stoppage. Damn. I can't believe that just happened.
Shit nobody is untouchable eh?
he's definitely overrated. so much hype.
Been following Andy Ruiz since 2011 when I saw him on the undercard of a Jose Benavidez fight in Parker, AZ. I was amazed by his hand-speed, combinations and power-punch placement - something not seen in the heavyweight division. Issue with him has always been training. He had a good showing in 2016 when he went to Joseph Parker's backyard and gave him hell. But after that it seems like he was content making a decent paycheck. The chunky cat can fight! And he has a durable beard. A motivated Andy is not going to be an easy out for any heavyweight. Don't be deceived by the walrus physique.
I think Ruiz is too easy to hit with the right hand to survive very long in the ring with Wilder.
Something was off with Joshua. Or maybe it was the fact that he was overhyped? anyway the heavyweight division hasn't been this exciting in a looooooong time.
Watching Ruiz though I just couldn't help but think he was a slightly slimmed down version of Skampoe.
I only saw highlights but Joshua looked abnormally tired. I saw him brawl with Klischko for a whole match and not look this bad
I believe some of Joshua's fatigue was panic related. It all started after he was rocked and dropped in the 3rd. His legs were gone and his equilibrium was off. This got his adrenaline going as he feared losing and wore him out as he fought hurt more and more. Adrenaline is no joke. When you come down from an adrenaline rush, you're energy is pretty much zapped.
RIP to Pernell Whitaker
manny is the best in the world
lol, not by far
very surprised at his win though. Thurman is (was?) no joke and got his first ever L. If I was a betting man I would've took Thurman easily for that fight
He might be at the top right now.
