WHAT IS oCCCCCCURRING IN THERE?!?!?

LOL "No...I heard the bell!"

that is fucked up

what a mess

last night i was on youtube playing old fights while i half paid attention and letting the algo pick, and so was just super entranced by the last exciting round of Chavez vs. Taylor II before it got to the final seconds and the angle on the ref suddenly clues me in that I've seen the very end of this fight before:

but i'd totally forgotten it was coming and it felt like i was reacting to it in real time, just shocked!! which gave it a whole extra level of fun. an unbelievable if safe ending.

YOU'RE GONNA WATCH LOU DUVA GO CRAZY NOW
YOU'RE GONNA WATCH LOU DUVA GO ABSOLUTELY BERSERK

sit down

Well maybe I misjudged the guy

he entered on a king carrier to a soundtrack of patsy Cline's Crazy - that is incredible!

ouch!

I feel a bit rough today but thank fuck I'm not Wilder.

Got up to watch this, unbelievable performance from Fury

And a genuinely weird ring walk

Thought Wilders corner waited waaaaaay too long to throw the towel in. Once they got through that next full round of not being able to get his legs under him after the knock down they shoulda called it. He wasn’t gonna be able to do anything and that was all damage that coulda been avoided. Wilder really just sits back waiting to throw that right and has no clue what to do otherwise.

Are we gonna get fury vs Joshua or what.

Yeah it was scary for Wilder from the body-shot knockdown onwards, think the ref was seconds away from stopping it himself.

My understanding is that Joshua would need to fight or pay off Pulev and Usyk before fighting Fury, and Fury can’t deny Wilder another fight if he wants it. Feels like it’ll be 2021 if they do get it together...

want fury to do josh

probably drag on and on and never happen why because boxing

The commentating was awful, making no note that Wilder was out on his feet for half the fight.

fury would have done better if his ringwalk crown had not been so heavy

if he only had to sing the 'crazy' song one time through instead of two

Yeah I get endorsement deals outside of boxing, something you don’t know about bc you hit woman https://t.co/TLWex733cN

any good fights scheduled this year that actually may happen? I'm outta touch

Good one about go down tonight! ESPN

Shakur Stevenson vs Felix carabello

Well Stevenson should whoop him no prob but still good to see a fight

Thanks! no cable atm but I'll look out for it

Not proud, but would watch.

Maybe on YouTube in a few weeks.

RJJ's fall-off is one of the fastest and most complete that I can think of. Frustrating and sad to watch any of his fights post-2004/5

It’s a bad idea. These dudes are old and banged up. Unless they are broke I don’t see any upside.

I wld imagine Jones has got to be set for life (?) but I wonder what Tyson has left if anything.

Yah jones has a steady job at least.

RJJ at his prime was amazing. So was Shane mosley

RJJ my fav boxer all time

my son messaged me to say Tyson was going to fight again and "I don't know who the other guy is"

so ashamed rn

Hearing that tonights bbc panorama on the kinihan cartels funding of MTK is a cracker

I think Canelo will thrash this dude, so I guess I'm not hotly anticipating this one

chump in chump division fights chump in meaningless chump fight, couldn't be more excited
