I think Taylor’s won but the bias on commentary was sickening. Taylor’s holding in the last 2 rounds was a disgrace and wasn’t even warned once.

Both fighters had given 100%. I didn't think there was anything untoward. Great fight and 2 fantastic fighters.
 
What a woman. Irish icon.

I had my doubts after the first fight. She looked completely off it. Proved a lot of people wrong. Great scrap.
 
Decent fight on at 9pm on Sky Sports arena with Chris Bilham-Smith defending his title for the first time

Shame it was lining up to be a cracker that and pretty poor from him to quit on stool. Maybe a genuine injury but the guy has waited years for a title shot.

Damaged rib apparently.
Was probably ahead at the time but as an obvious juicer didn't deserve the win.
 



Great fight one sided beat down from Haney, he totally dominated the distance. Remember watching the Regis v Taylor it was around the 5th round Josh changed the fight by taking the half step back and fencing the left, it changed the fight. Also enjoy seeing Haney using his left to guard the jab from the opposite southpaw, rather than just slipping the angle and potentially getting countered text book boxing.

Don't see Haney losing at 140, Teo would be a fantastic fight for him.

Great fight between Bam Rodriguez & Edwards. The skill level from both fighters was off the chart, in the end the swelling and extra reach & power of Rodriguez has made the difference, but Edward’s did himself proud and caused Rodriguez all kinds of problems as well. Great stuff.

Absolutely gutted for Edwards. So much skill on display.

Not necessarily cause Dubois is fecking awful and there is no guarantee that Miller is there to take a dive

He’s really not. What he seems to lack is the mentality and IQ tbh. While he got beat up against Usyk he was also robbed after putting him down with a legit shot. Should be a good fight.
 
Miller without the juice is just plain awful.

Fully expect Dubois to get the stoppage by the middle rounds.

Miller should be blowing out of his backside by then.

Good to see Fury make the fight! On paper, it's a great one that's hard to call.

One thing I took from that press conference is that Fury is not 6'9. Either that or he has shrunk.

I think he definitely is. My wife and brother in law went to see him at a weigh in years ago and I've got a photo of them both with him. My brother in law is 6ft and Tyson made him look like he was about 5ft :lol:
 
Miller is a good talker but he’s shite. Painfully slow, not a particularly good puncher for a 22 st bloke and hasn’t beaten anybody.

Having said that, I wouldn’t back Dubois with stolen money.
 
Interesting that Dubois has thrown similar body shots to the controversial one against Usyk but nothing has been called.
 
End of round 6 of 10 Miller starting to tire. Dubois needs to keep boxing off the back foot. Miller ate a lot of shots in that round.
 
Yeah good fight from DDD, hopefully gives him the balls he needs to succeed
 
Arthur needs to do something other than box. Make it dirty, stick the nut on him a bit. Anything other than get outboxed
 
I know i have never rated Jarell Miller but if he can't cope with Dubois he should never be allowed in a boxing ring again.
 
I'm sick to death of Talkshite and 5Live licking Saudi arseholes over this sports washing event.

And the cream of World boxing selling their souls for a mountain of money which legitimate promoters can possibly hope to match.

feck these cnuts, I want nothing to do with it.
