Owl Visiting

Brutal knockout that.

Think it was a stroke of luck that previous opponent falling in the shower, as he'd obviously already fallen out with them before the fight and then missing the weight. Always think this referee looks like Jim Murphy btw.

Sums up our season so far really, disappointing. We just aren't at the races, and there's no way we're suddenly gonna hit form and stay in the top 6, we've got mid table written all over us. I've not joined what is becoming the majority of Wednesday fans in calling for the managers head but maybe we've started to go stale, and a new face with fresh ideas might be what we need. Our current first 11 is almost identical to the one which lost the playoff final a couple of seasons ago. Despite all the money spent since we somehow haven't managed to strengthen our side. As for today, thought it was a poor game, agree you were the better side and could have nicked it. Never felt we were going to score to be honest.

Alright all, predicted an entertaining 2-2 draw on here last night, so probably my fault for the snooze fest today. If we were further up the table I wouldn't mind a point against your current side but we are desperate for points. Feels like a write-off for us this season already. Should be routine for Frampton tonight, will be interesting to see if he does anything different now he's with Jamie Moore.

Interesting chat with Hearn from yesterday about his involvement with boxing in America. Don't like the idea of him promoting an American going up against a Brit which could well happen if Jacobs ends up fighting Saunders. He's always talked about his ambition to go and conquer America though.

Love IFL, my favourite YouTube channel by a long way, he gets a lot of stick but I always really enjoy the Hearn interviews. Billy Joe as well, despite him being so boring in the ring.

I'll leave you with this. Definitely the highlight of our disappointing season so far. https://twitter.com/Channel5Sport/status/926862766501068800

Or maybe its punishment for the worst ring walk in the history of boxing. 3:00 in

Fair play to him, probably deserves it with getting in the ring with all those guys. Is there a current heavyweight in boxing who's had as many difficult fights? Definitely a horrible man though.

I think its partly due to the lack of charisma. Don't think Hearn sees him particularly marketable.

He barely ever seems to win Chisora. He's fought some good fighters but loses to every single one. This looks like it will be another.

You guys are flying. We have no business being 2-0 up at Villa. Scored a screamer after 30 seconds.

Started buffering so had to pause for 10 minutes, thought the stoppage was harsh but may have been in part due to the cuts, but is that the referees decision to make when the doctor gave the all clear? Fair play to Takam thought he deserved to see the final bell. First time Joshua hasn't impressed me tonight.

Joshua looks reight worried doesn't he?

What do we reckon? 3rd round?

I wonder if Zlatan is the ring announcer again?

Hope this turns out like the Chisora fight

Has Dave Allen fought yet?

Boxers from that part of the world are such warriors, remember when Margarito fought Pacquiao? He barely had a face left by the end, but somehow lasted all 12 rounds.

Some here Yardy

Cheers Stortz, I have done exactly that this evening, always seems to work well for me until the main event, then it starts to buffer. Another good win for you today. Think it's time for a new manager at our place sadly.

Evening all. Also looking for a link, will post if I find anything decent.

Very disappointed with your result today. This division is ridiculous at times.

Should be an exciting fight, we'll get to find out how good Eubank really is. You'd expect Smith to be waiting in the final for the winner, another one to look forward to. I like this format, I hope all the fighters stay injury free and we see it through to its conclusion.
