Pleased for Nick as I saw the last fight where he was robbed so it's well deserved for sure.

yeah he won the last one got robbed; was hoping he didnt get robbed this time but it was super close and any way you wouldnt of really said either got robbed. great fight.

 

[Calpol]

Very close fight. Not a fan of Ball but got to respect him for that effort. Would watch a rematch.

 

[~>Dg<~]

yeah not a big fan of rematches but that one i would watch. still just starting to tonight great line up of fights.

Place looks empty.

I know that's pretty standard for normal cards but I'd have thought more would turn up for these fights. About 5 people clapping the fighters.

There is no atmosphere, it's just sports washing for celebrities and the super rich.

 

[~>Dg<~]

you gotta remember they just started building this. its new. it will obviously build and get better. the fights are getting made now. so tbh as a viewer who cares about the crowds.

 

[robfosters]

This card is just far too late for UK viewers. Still got 3 fights after and with all the walk on shenanigans, we should be done just in time for breakfast ffs

They've set it up specifically for UK timing, it's way past midnight in Saudi. I personally couldn't give a damn about the crowds, we're seeing fight cards that were unimaginable a few years ago, bring it on I say.

When these big events were in the UK, main event ringwalks were around 11, this will be far far later.

Tbh most of these fights could be a main event. When you have so many 'big' fights they can't all be at peak time.

Queensbury giving Matchroom a good hiding as I expected, okay I didn't expect it would be this easy.

Can't have it all at least we are finally seeing good flights being setup

 

[Calpol]

I've got little interest in Wilder Zhang but wouldn't mind seeing Hergovic Dubois but at that this rate I doubt I'll see the end of the next fight. zzzzzzzzz

 

[robfosters]

I actually find this Warren v Hearn thing all a bit egotistical. The boxers are the stars and the ones who risk their lives, not them.

 

[robfosters]

“We have a lot of fans here”

Said while there’s about 2000 empty seats behind him lol

I’m sure he said Wilder v Joshua at Wembley. Thats odd, I didn’t think he’d advocate such a fight away from Saudi

Hope Bivol doesn't put the brakes on what's been an entertaining night of boxing so far. As much as I rate him he seems to coast a bit at times, just content to show that he's the better boxer and doesn't seem too fussed about getting a stoppage.

 

[CliffyG]

Would like an early stoppage so the next 2 aren't too late.

Would like an early stoppage so the next 2 aren't too late.

Bivol will just slowly beat him up for 12 rounds
