*** The Official Boxing Thread ***Do Not Discuss Illegal Streams

I can't stand the MC that Hearn uses.

Yeah same. In interviews I like him and he does know his boxing but I hate that he always repeats the last name. He says he does it as a throw back to the ring announcers of old but I bloody hate it.

Is the weigh in starting now? Just watching F1 practice

 

[Danthus]

Yeah, weigh-in is done. Bit of verbal. Nothing much else

Aj 240lbs (17st 2lbs)

Pulev 239lbs (17st 1lbs)

Odd, Boxrec has stopped showing previous fight weights. That sounds a bit heavier than he was for the Ruiz rematch.

 

[Psycho Ned]

Won't be paying £25 tonight think I'll just listen on the radio. Can't honestly see Pulev doing anything, far too old and past it just can't see him doing 'a Ruiz' on AJ.

Undercards got Hughie Fury on it. Guaranteed cure for insomnia

 

[Combat Fighter]

What time is AJ on?

 

[Danthus]

It will be about 10pm.

 

[RossGReds]

Closer to 11 if past fights are anything to go by.

 

[Junglist]

I'm hopping it's not that late. Unsurprising but this fight isn't exciting so far!

 

[Junglist]

Bit of an entertaining fight from Hughie for once

 

[Danthus]

The way he flicks out that right hand is weird.

 

[Dinosaur]

hellfire this Lawrence Okewoli guy, is really something!

Not a great match up that one....not entirely sure I agree with the ref letting him survive that first round, he was only ever going to get smashed up a bit more.

 

[Junglist]

Yeah Okolie is horrible to watch but he can bang

 

[Danthus]

Diamante looks like Eddie needed an MC and asked the homeless guy outside to do it.

 

[RockLobster]

What’s with the lame music as they announce the fighters?

 

[Malt_Vinegar]

Loved his ring walk music

 

[Malt_Vinegar]

AJ looks very nervous after that round!

 

[Stumble Bum]

What is this? A dancing match?

 

[Malt_Vinegar]

One combination so far, largely soaked up by Pulev..
Let's hope 3 wakes it up

 

[Malt_Vinegar]

No way back, surely?
