Joshua needs to face better opponents. A very talented boxer and level headed, but he needs to be tested more.
Tough to get him opponents though
Wonder what that guy was on last night

He'd easily take out Fury or Chisora at this stage, and obviously, they'd want nothing to do with him, no money and everything to lose
 
Why did Mayweather do the Twitter vote thing and waste everyone's time if he chose to fight Maidana anyway? I would love to see him and Khan fight as I dislike both and whoever loses would be amusing to see.

Froch vs. Groves 2 confirmed for the O2 Arena in London... does anyone who has been to boxing fights in London know how much it would cost?

Almost. It will be at Wembley Stadium
 
Wembley is a terrible choice of venue. I've been a few times to watch United and it's just not going to provide good value for money I don't think. I was nailed on going to get tickets for this but now I'm thinking about just watching it on TV.

The problem with Wembley is that if you're not sat on the pitch/ringside then you'll see absolutely nothing. The stands are too far away from the pitch and they aren't steep. If you're at the back of the stands you might aswell watch it on your phone. It's fine for the footy (still not the best) but it'd be terrible for the boxing.

I was in the second tier of Upton Park for the Haye and Chisora fight and that was hard enough to make out what was going on.
 
Kovalev scores yet another knockout. Then calls Stevenson a piece of shit on TV. :lol:
 
Pac is the favourite. Also, with the shouts of robbery from the first fight, if it is in anyway close, Pac will get the nod. See Holyfield/Lewis 2. Probably closer than the first fight, yet Lewis was given a wide decision.

All that said, I am going Bradley UD. I just have a sneaking suspicion that Pac has lost a step. This is also on the basis that Bradley doesn't break his ankles this time.

Pac is still the smart bet.
 
Yeah.

Clottey just battered Mundine, knocking him down 5 times. :lol:

Fantastic news.
 
Bradley looked drunk at points- was there for the taking i think, although Bradley seems to withstand a lot of punishment and can take a pounding.
 
Pacman is still a shadow of himself though. A few years ago he would have knocked Bradley out if Bradley was as poor as he was today.
