Re: Boxing threadBellew calling out Ward and Fury. He'd get absolutely schooled. He hasn't fought a top level opponent in years, and when he did he got KO'd.
Re: Boxing threadIs he aware that Andre Ward is retired? And that Tyson Fury is huge?!!!
Re: Boxing threadGGG finishing on Sunday morning is actually scary, most boxers are swinging he is so controlled, every shot landing like precision for 20 second straight, just an outright ruthless assassin, who then wins bows and is pretty calm, just a stone cold killer in a good sport way
Re: Boxing thread
Absolutely fantastic, a complete mismatch but you can't take anything away from his power and precision. I'm not sure where he goes from here, I'd love to see him and BJS get it on, or Charlo, but there seems little point in him fighting Alvarez as only a KO will bring him victory.
Re: Boxing threadStrong rumors Groves is out of the final due to injuries and it will be Eubank vs Smith instead
Re: Boxing threadThe final is a couple of months away though, July isn’t it?
Re: Boxing thread
FFS.
Re: Boxing threadI'm not sure I could see that happening
I suspect the Sauerlands are too wise to discredit the tournament by doing that. The final of the tournament with no World Title involved would be a joke
Re: Boxing threadThey've just released the first of the next round of fighters in the WBSS. This time at bantamweight. The lineup is brilliant WBA, WBO and the IBF belts will be on the line
![]() If they add Inoue into that lineup, aswell as Jamie McDonnell it has the best line up of all the weights so far
Re: Boxing threadMildly interesting on the BBC last night, Joshua and Klitschko meet a year on at Wembley to discuss the fight.

Re: Boxing threadHughie Fury knocked Sam Sexton out to win the British heavyweight title. I don’t think we can read too much into that one.

Re: Boxing threadCracking fight this, Linares vs. Lomachenko. Loma in the groove from the third but is dropped in the sixth! Linares down in the tenth after a body shot and the referee calls it off. Great fight.
Re: Boxing threadCracking fight, got in just as it started, the ESPN commentary was unbearable so pro Loma
Re: Boxing threadGreat fight two World Class fighters giving it everything.
Hughie beating Sexton was no surprise, I'm not sure where he goes from here, he's not going to defend the belt against Joyce and has said he wants to go after title eliminators, I think he'd be better off getting in shape and fighting at Cruiser but obviously there's more money in the Heavyweight division, if you can get the fights.
Re: Boxing threadSod being in Leeds tonight, probably going to kick off big time when Lee Selby schools home fighter Warrington for 12 rounds infront of 30k pissed up Leeds fans with the Kaiser Chiefs playing as well, recipe for disaster Even kicked off yesterday.
Boxing Wales have confirmed Lee Selby and his team were attacked following the weigh in today and rumours going around his team bus was smashed up.
Re: Boxing threadYep it's going to go off big time. Can you imagine the scenes if Selby gets a disputed split decision win

Re: Boxing threadSelby v Warrington. Good scrap this, Selby cut in the 2nd from a clash of heads. Is Selby’s timing a bit off? Selby cut again in th 6th over the other eye. Into the last two rounds, hard to call but Warrington has certainly been aggressive. Warrington wins by a split decision 113-115, 116-112, 115-113.
Re: Boxing threadWell that was a shock, every bookies had Selby massive odds on, Frampton and every other boxer said Selby wide points win, full credit to warrington throughly deserved it, Selby is nearly as slick as hell, even called the white mayweather at points, looked like he was in treacle the whole fight, slow, cumbersome, god knows what was going on there
