    I've noticed we've worn white shorts in a couple of recent away matches when there was usually a need to change 

    You only need to change Shirt and socks if there is a clash

    Fair enough, so do you not rate Joshua as a boxer at all then? Or do you just think Usyk is massively more skilled?

    I think the improvements in AJ's boxing and mindset are very clearly evident in the last 5/6 fights- excepting the Ruiz loss when he chucked all of his tactical and physical advantages out of the window after getting nailed. His jab is noticeably more authoritative by the fight imo and his punch selection is improving too. He still admires his work far too much though, and it will really cost him one day for sure.

    I'm with @Phileas Fogg , I properly love Usyk as a fighter and a character and would be 100% behind him against any other HW. Even if he produces the performance of his life though, I just can't see a realistic path to him winning this one. I'm intrigued to see if him and Loma Snr have an unexpected plan on Saturday night.

    @Kid in the Riot, thanks for the heads up on the BBC Bunce and Chisora pod, very pertinent!

    Just find AJ very manufactured A bit like Big Frank but better

    Don't agree mate, I think Joshua will win on points.

    I can't see him catching Usyk cleanly or often enough to knock him out, but I also can't really see any way that Usyk can outpoint him on a Matchroom card with 70k there and given AJ's massively improved jab.

    Or is this some sort of meta anti Matchroom jibe that I'm almost missing?!

    No anti Matchroom stuff

    They myth that AJ fought a washed up Klitschko makes me laugh, Fury beat him only 18months before and he was supposedly in his prime at that point and took very little punishment so to calim he was over the hill by the time Wembley happened is laughable.

    AJ wins comfortably for me on Saturday, Usyk hasn't shown anything at Heavyweight that makes me think he will be able to hurt Joshua, the common thinking from pundits is that Usyk will be able to dance rings around AJ and win on points but he never managed that against Chisora who is levels below. AJ wins either by UD or Stoppage.

     

    No chance will AJ win on points

    He KOs Usyk or gets out boxed

    That is unless the judges have been paid off But that only happens in the USA not the UK!!!!!!

    Hamilton was at blame for his crash with Button at Canada 2011, that's one off the top of my head.

    There will be others too.

    So take your own blinkers off.

     

    Although, after your words on taking the knee one does wonder if there's a connection.

    Wow

    You must be the only person on the planet to think that was Hamilton's fault today.

    Not saying it was all his fault

    bet im not the only person on the planet who thinks he is part to blame

    I know for a fact LH wont take ANY of the blame

    I am. And judging by our attendance today others are to.

    I can see its a work in progress, albeit slow progress, and I'm willing to put up with boring football for a bit, I mean I remember the mcinnes and sod days vividly. 

    But, we pay for this, no win in 15 at home at any level is not acceptable. I'm surprised how many people keep defending this and making excuses. 

    Yes you do pay for it

    but in the 40 odd years i have been watching football 

    i have never seen the words You will be entertained or your money back!!! on ANY of the tickets i have brought

    Not even the ones i have from Real Madrid

    We’re just a shambles of a test side. Haven’t had the right balance for years in our batting line up, re-selecting poor players to make it work. Balance, Jennings, Sibley, Lyth, Carberry, Robson, Stoneman… to name a few.

    Something has to change. 

    Yeah county cricket and coaching basic technique

    We need more quality less quantity in county cricket

    Coaches need to teach batsman the basics  Head still /Straight bat 

    Rocket science it is not
