Sad for Campbell, don’t know where he goes from here tbh.

Anybody watch the Ward - Thor exhibition?

saw it earlier on youtube

can see thors punches coming form this side of the atlantic

cruiserweight against a 26st strongman

This is a pretty good scrap, Martinez was the better boxer for the first half of the fight and should be clear on the scorecards.

Edit: Martinez should be up on the cards, at worst a draw. Expect a clear Barrett win.

Edit: That's ****ing disgraceful, the worst scoring I've ever seen. **** Hearn and **** Matchroom the cheating *****.

 

[robfosters]

Haha, that is a disgraceful robbery. Have no faith in judges any more

 

[Pighardia]

Why are they so mystified that Warrington doesn't look himself. He hasn't fought in nearly 18 months. Might have something to do with it.

I really thought it was going to be stopped. Couldn't have complained.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

How did it get that far? Awful from the ref, Warrington just stood helplessly taking punches.

Lucky for Lara, Warrington would've been 7-0 up on the scorecards.

 

[robfosters]

Wow, what a shock?

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Warrington's face is a mess. If I didn't watch that and someone told me Lara beat up Warrington I would've assumed it was Brian with a cricket bat.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Valenzuela the clear winner in that fight. Robbery incoming.

Edit: Those scorecards, at least the right man won this week despite the attempt to rob him

 

[Pighardia]

Good fight that. Very close but Valunzuela just nicked it.

Davies Jr looked a bit off tbh... Almost distracted

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

This isn't going 12 rounds, great first two rounds

Kelly's head movement and handspeed are fantastic but I always thought he was too reliant on his speed and got too cocky. Hopefully learnt a lot since I last saw him a few years ago.

 

[Pighardia]

This is quality. Kelly looking very good in first 2

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Showboating's started and he get immediately starts getting hit easier. Hasn't learnt a thing since I last saw him

Cut eye as well now?

Edit: No chance Kelly makes this to 12 rounds, he's struggling already. Avanesyan making mincemeat out of his body.

 

[Jimbeam3678]

Do you think the commentary team are slightly bias.

bottom line is Josh Kelly ain’t as good as he thinks he is.

right on cue

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Got what he deserved. Pathetic from Kelly, has all the tools to go all the way but doesn't seem to have the right mentality. Hopefully he'll learn more from losing and work on his defence.

Edit: Great month for Hearn

 

[Pighardia]

Damn I had round 8.

... Not that it matters as I had it with a football bet that was already down but still.

Kelly will come back. He's still young.

If Okolie and Whyte lose next month, which is more than possible, he’d have had an absolute nightmare

He’s 26

It's crazy that footballers can't bet on any football match, whether it involves them or not but a boxers coach can bet on their own fighter. I think it might have been Carl Froch that once said he was practically holding the opposition fighter up because his brother(?) bet on the fight ending in the next round.
