Sky should have sensed the mood and the year we’ve all had and offered it up for £10. Bet they’d do 5x more sales Eddie had moaned about people stealing streams in the past and his answer is obviously to hump the price up,the wrong uns like us will continue to do it while the honest people will get stung even more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to have crowds back anyway. Bakole vs Kuzmin dropped under the radar a bit, very good fight. Possibly most competitive on the card. Iknow I'm being very fussy but anywhere that streams with uk coverage? I love a bit of Johnny Nelson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never denied that Fury has said things too, but the difference is that Joshua's are nicely covered up by his promotion and backers. Similar things have emerged about fellow Matchroom figher Shannon Courtenay over the weekend, she has a nice endorsement with Adidas too. As usual, nicely covered up. Just now, petehinton said: Fury is an unbearable gorm. Most gifted heavyweight and an exceptional talent. He's flawed but far more entertaining than the mass market engineered Joshua.

If you do, then Fury is a card-carrying homophobe. I assume you also dislike Mayweather and want him to lose every fight given he's beaten women up? That crime is far worse than anything Fury or AJ have done. He is of course manufactured and marketed, but at heart he seems genuine enough to me. If you are holding "marketed to casuals" against him then you are dismissing a hell of a lot of elite boxers!

If you are holding "marketed to casuals" against him then you are dismissing a hell of a lot of elite boxers! There's nothing wrong with sportspersons transcending their sports. I think the Fury issue is complex, the context is important. At the time he was going through serious mental health issues. He's also from the travelling community where tradition and traditional family values are prevalent. Doesn't mean I agree with him or that his views shouldn't be challenged though. Have you actually seen what Joshua said to Eddie Chambers or more recently his views about "not shopping at their (white people's) businesses" at a BLM protest? I appreciate the BLM remarks are more nuanced, but the Eddie Chambers stuff is fairly cut and dry regardless of context. It's been well covered up, but it's out there and is easy to find if you look. The difference between the two is the cover up. Fury hasn't had that luxury. When he was going through his issues and made his comments he was treated very critically by the media, Joshua never was. It's the double standard that bothered me. I also dislike Mayweather as a man, doesn't mean I don't think he's a good fighter though. Same applies to Joshua.
