Barry Hearn's erstwhile favourite Sam Eggington back to stop some more punches with his face haha. True mate, can't see him changing now...

Stortz Posted May 22, 2021 Report Share Posted May 22, 2021 This version of Molina is awful haha, it looks like he's fighing in treacle. When you make Eggington look slick you're in trouble. Sam's still likely to walk on to one of Molina's slow mo shots out of irredeemable stupidity though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top 5 pound for poind in the world now imo. A great performance from Josh against a very game Ramirez. Wonderful uppercut to knock him down in the 7th, aided by Bayless's comedic officiating- why on Earth was he tapping Taylor's arm as they worked out of the clinch? It was almost like he then realised that he'd messed up and gave Ramirez ages to recover to even things up- there was an extra 10 seconds of recovery time at least. Naive from Ramirez to get stiffed on the inside like that too- protect yourself at all times Jose! Also, Ben Davison was lucky not to throw that fight away for Taylor in the last few rounds- repeatedly telling your man to stay out of trouble to ensure a points decision against a Mexican in Vegas is really trusting far more than you should in the judges. Top stuff from Taylor though, surely major bouts now await him. Edited May 23, 2021 by Stortz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile, the neck on Warren to blame the situation on Hearn.. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/boxing/57294832 The thing that surprised me was their was no time limit on making Fury v Wilder 3. i don't think either Fury or AJ will lose (realistically Usik's too small) just drags the fight further down the road.

I remember an interview with Terry Lawless after he attended a public workout by Tyson before his first fight with Bruno where he said "I've trained middleweight world champions who weren't as quick as Mike.."

I must say I like DAZN now I'm an old git, with their subscription model you can watch entire cards of major fights as live when you get up on a Sunday rather than schlepping through until 6 then dealing with the kids for the rest of the Sunday after a few hours of sleep. Also no more Adam Smith on comms, so bonus! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
