Re: Good up and coming boxers
Well with Haye - none of the others want to fight him. If he holds a belt he becomes a better option to fight.Bomber wrote:That English look for "easy" targets?

With Fury - looking to take all the belts, the more he holds the bigger pay day he can get with the unification belt.

Re: Good up and coming boxers
History repeating itself. Eubank has put Nick Blackwell into a coma, not looking for him.
Just watched the fight, Blackwell was a warrior and kept coming back for more. Eubank Snr screaming for the fight to be stopped and even told his son to target the body as Blackwell was going to get seriously hurt.

Re: Good up and coming boxers
Looks like England will be losing one of it's heavyweight champions quite soon. Could this open up an opportunity for David Haye?

Wasn't bad from what I saw (didn't see whole fight). Klitschko seems to be past his best but a decent win all the same.God is an Englishman wrote:Joshua stopping Klitschko in the 11th. Amazing fight.

If Fury can get a licence then him. Then, Wilder/Parker.Bomber wrote:Who do you think he'll line up next?

AJ spoke about it after the fight and Fury responded via Twitter along the lines of "challenge accepted, let's dance".Bomber wrote:Fury would be the most interesting.

I think the world also wants to see a rematch of this one as well. That would surely be on the cards.

Re: Good up and coming boxers
Not seen the fight but I'm shocked. I thought that despite his age he'd beat him with one arm behind his back. Did he try that and that's how he won?

Re: Good up and coming boxers
Australian fox sports had Pacquaio winning the fight, one of the judges had Horn winning 117-111 
Pacquaio also landed VERY CLOSE to double the amount of punches
Thoughts?

ESPN would be a pretty decent source I'd have thought. Did you see the fight? What did you think?Bomber wrote:Amazingly lopsided looking at that. Horn should be clinically dead if those numbers were right.

That's what a lot of experts are saying which makes the 117-111 scorecard a bit strange.Bomber wrote:Watched the whole thing now - no problem with decision - could have gone either way.
