Awful fighter to watch, he attempts 1 or 2 punches and then grabs the opponent every single time. Pretty dreadful display from Okolie despite him winning by a mile. The rest of the card was good fun though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riaz Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 They will do what they usually do. Speak to the judges. The judges will say, they thought josh taylor won the fight. The British Board of Control will come out and say they are satisfied after speaking to the judges. Case closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riaz Posted February 28, 2022 Report Share Posted February 28, 2022 (edited) 32 minutes ago, TomF said: It’s a boxing wide issue too. After the first GGG/Canelo fight nothing was done.. after the first Wilder/Fury fight nothing was done.. nothing is ever done about it. Maybe they should have 5 judges and the two outliners are removed? Think you’ll still get it. Think the only way you stop it, is by punishing judges… but that’s also hard because it’s subjective - the judges could claim they liked the fact that Taylor was being aggressive, for example.

daored Posted March 3, 2022 Report Share Posted March 3, 2022 On 28/02/2022 at 19:34, TomF said: Eddie Hearn will be bricking it! Heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk says his "country and honour" are more important than any fight in the ring as he prepares to defend Ukraine's capital Kyiv against invading Russian forces. The 35-year-old, who beat Britain's Anthony Joshua in September to become the unified heavyweight champion, has enlisted in Ukraine's military. "There is no fear, absolutely no fear," he told CNN. "There's just bafflement - how could this be in the 21st century?" Usyk, who was speaking via video call and an interpreter from a basement in Kyiv, said he did not know if there was any chance of him fulfilling a planned May rematch with Joshua. "I really don't know when I'm going to be stepping back in the ring," he said. "My country and my honour are more important to me than a championship belt."

Phileas Fogg Posted March 3, 2022 Report Share Posted March 3, 2022 On 01/03/2022 at 18:05, Super said: Fury to retire after Whyte fight. Yeah, usual rubbish from him. He'll want Usyk or Joshua before he retires. I imagine he'd prefer Joshua as I think he's a bit wary of Usyk and the Joshua fight would still be more lucrative. There could realistically be a situation whereby the belts become split up again if Usyk has to take a break from boxing for a while. Obviously a horrible set of circumstances for that to happen in though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if the Ukrainian government encourage him to fight. He's probably Ukraine's greatest living active sportsman, and the country needs a morale boost. I appreciate he's based there and so are his family, but I wouldn't be surprised if this happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a tricky one isn't it, I can't see him (Usyk) getting in a boxing ring in the next year at least, which leaves the belts in limbo unless he's stripped ( unlikely) or gives up the belts.. He doesn't strike me as an Elvis type soldier who was nowhere near any action most of the time, or Alexis Auguelo who fought with the Contras for his own benefit... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's also getting on a bit now in boxing terms (35) and I'm not sure how well his style will age. Hopefully things de-escalate a bit, perhaps that would allow him to begin training again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
