In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss Amad saving our blushes in a win against Southampton as well as our now annual loss at home to Brighton. They discuss Amorim's post-match comments, revisit how mid-table we may or may not be, and discuss some transfer news.
I don’t think they are allowed to hurt each other. It’s just a play fight. No winner if it goes to the cards, can’t hurt each other etc;
Anyone watching the boxing on SKY? I have a cheeky bet on Eggington, Cheeseman likes to block with his face 3/1 worth a gamble.
Say what you want about Eddie Hearn but he's an absolute showman and a master of the game. He's really delivered with Fight Camp and right in his own backyard. Bloody superb. Sweet Caroline, Fireworks and a show befitting of the very best. Joy to watch.
All the favourites won typical match room card, although it was more entertaining than most..
About the Tyson-Roy Jones thing: The way I look at it is the same way I looked at the Mcgregor-Mayweather show.
We shouldn't have world championship level expectations. Enjoy the interviews they will do to build it up, the videos of Mike hitting pads, the two of them walking out to the ring, all the little things.

Officially unveiled the cover. Also the book was mentioned in one of Brazil’s biggest papers today.

Really looking forward to Whyte vs Povetkin fight tonight. Dillian looks in great shape, 18 pounds lighter than the late notice fight in Saudi Arabia.
Should be a great fight, Hope Whyte makes a statement to finally get that WBC shot.

Still can't believe it's on PPV, ridiculous decision really. It'd of been better in the long run for whyte if they put it on normal Sky and he put in a good performance
I’m pissed that I have to pay £20 for this fight nowhere near PPV material, Povetkin was very poor in his last fight against Hunter and Whyte isn’t exactly a very entertaining fighter either. If Taylor v Persoon wasn’t on it I don’t think I’d be paying for it..
Age will play a big factor in this one i think. Whyte being in good shape on top of him being 8y younger than Povetkin (40) could prove to be a decisive factor.
anyone have a stream for the Whyte fight?
No how dare you and I am going to message you further to express my disgust
Taylor has no jab whatsoever, would shut a lot of this hectic onslaught down with a decent stiff jab. Poor.
Commentary bigging up Katie way too much the last couple of rounds - dodgy decision coming again?
I would like to point out that I'm an individual worthy of thou disgust kind sir.
I am going to give you a piece of my mind too in private
98-93 
Don't start with robbery shit, one score card was bad but Taylor won that by 2 rounds. A proper ref wouldn't have let Persoon consistently grab the back of her head either. Fair play to Persoon though she is an animal.
Shocking decision again. No way she won that.
Bring it on. I’m ready and waiting
Sorry mate Persoon won that by at least 2 rounds.
She’s a protected species Taylor, it’s embarrassing
Persoon just said that Katie deserved the win. Boxing is much more than walking forward winging punches.
Did she feck.
Taylor the clear winner.
Windmill Persoon is a scrapper but she was out boxed
She was far too gracious there, every commentator, pundit and fellow pros saying they had Persoon ahead.
I agree it’s not just walking forward but above all its volume of punches landed, you can’t get hit more than you hit your opponent and win just because you happen to be the technically better fighter.
Good thing is that both Povetkin and Whyte like to operate on the inside, should be a treat this one.
Don’t agree. Same as the pundits and commentators, I had Persoon landing the most punches which is what matters.
Taylor severely poor with the jab which is crazy considering she had the first fight to learn from, let Persoon come in and land far too many in every round after the 2nd.
Joshua-Whyte II, if it ever happens will be a proper grudge match.
Yeah a fight I’d like to see again for sure. Absolutely no walk in the park for AJ either.
I think Whyte might do him next time he's getting better - he looks in proper shape tonight.
What the point of fireworks when there is barely anyone at ringside ?!?!
Would really appreciate if any one could suggest a stream to watch this? Thanks
Taylors jab was non existent but she was clearly the better boxer. Landed the better shots IMO.
Persoon is wild. Relentless all the same.
Even Persoon is happy with the decision.
Definitely! Joshua's chin has been exposed a bit, so Whyte definitely has a chance.
Whats with the stab vest ?
I love this setting in the back garden. Its brilliant.
That Persoon is fecking relentless have to give it to her by maybe a round but a draw would have been far and I’m a big Taylor fan..
When is Fury/Joshua slated for? Os it going to also be without fans?
They both have to fight again before they meet assuming both win
