Terrible to hear the news that Galway fighter John Cooney sadly passed away last night. John suffered a bleed to the brain in his bout last week in Belfast. RIP Champ.

Should be a great scrap tonight between Benavidez and Morrell, fancy Morrell to nic it on points. What your thought's?
21 Dec 2024 23:53:43
what do you guys make of that?
to me that was dodgy judging. no way was was that 116-112
i had fury winning 115-113
22 Dec 2024 07:52:43
I actually had it as a draw but could see it go either way. There was no way he won it by 4 rounds. Would have understood it either way if it was by a round.
22 Dec 2024 14:28:14
i will watch the fight again just in case I missed something
but no way that was 116-112
22 Dec 2024 14:40:59
Thought Fury had done enough myself tbh. Although it was very close with a lot of close rounds.
24 Dec 2024 17:53:19
Watched it again (this time sober) Usyk won it. Was close but he won it. Still not sure of Fury's tactics, comes in heavy but boxes on the back foot.
17 Dec 2024 19:30:30
Who yous got for Saturday night? The first one was close and I can see a path to victory for both men although ill pick Usyk to win again.
I don't like Fury coming in heavy. Don't think he will get Usyk out of there and could run out of steam early trying to.
18 Dec 2024 00:42:18
agree with you on fury possibly running out of steam mate.
i think usyk wins by late stoppage
18 Dec 2024 12:37:30
I'm leaning that way too mate. Think Fury will try the same tactics as the wilder second fight and try and walk Usyk down like he done Wilder. Think that plays into Usyks hands and Fury could be a sitting duck in the later rounds.
04 Dec 2024 22:42:51
Seen this fight card scheduled for the 22nd of February? Fair play to Turki, this is something else. Best card ever.
15 Nov 2024 22:37:38
So sorry to read the news about ed002. Will be sadly missed, RIP.
14 Oct 2024 23:48:51
guys what's your thoughts on ben whittaker?
a lot of people on social media basically saying he quit and was found out.
i don't really know what to make of that, but from what I saw, I think cameron was well winning and should have got the decision IMO.
yet again, more dodgy judging lol
15 Oct 2024 09:01:21
Thought at the time that he was looking a way out of there. The replays didn't show his ankle twisting or hitting anything but u never really know, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt but only if he rematches Cameron next.

Not only was it a robbery, but that disgusting war criminal Ramzam Kadyrov was there in the ring with Beterbiev.
I am not watching Boxing again until the Saudi's are gone. They are taking money from Russia, so screw them.
13 Oct 2024 11:42:43
Him from Czechia? I thought I recognised him.
I had Bivol a point up going into the last round and tbh I forgot to score the last round so I either had it a draw or Bivol by 2.
Thought Bivol was excellent.
13 Oct 2024 15:49:42
Yes, the Chechen warlord.
Mate, I am absolutely furious over this as I follow the conflict in Ukraine very closely (I have friends fighting) . That fat disgusting mass of atoms should be on trial for war crimes.
This is as polite as I can be about Kadyrov.
14 Oct 2024 17:00:00
Fair enough mate.
Was the main fight sanctioned by the BBBofC?
13 Oct 2024 00:55:55
what do you guys make of that result?
personally I had it as a draw.
no way was it 116-112 IMO
also hope frazer clarke recovers well. the way he looked after that was scary.
wishing him a speedy recovery
13 Oct 2024 11:46:47
Think a draw would have been fair.
Agree I hope big Fraz is OK, that was rough. Thought Victor Loughlin should have called break when Fraz fell into the ropes, give Wardley abit of a free shot.
08 Oct 2024 19:52:57
Bivol v Beterbiev has to be the best fight in boxing atm. I can't pick a winner. Genuine 50/50 imo.
10 Oct 2024 06:12:48
If Bivol is sharp with his movement he'll win comfortably, Beterbiev is 39/40, has had a lot of lengthy injury spells and his last injury was a knee injury, which very well could have an effect.
However we have seen Bivol be more static in recent fights, perhaps due to him lacking respect for his recent opponents, but if he doesn't move in this fight, he's getting chinned.
I'm going to pick Bivol only points, with the caveat that Beterbiev may be "stopped" due to injury.
11 Oct 2024 09:51:44
Start of the week I was leaning more towards Bivol on points for the reasons u say mate although then I got thinking about Beterbiev facing the better opposition. Tbh both at times have looked excellent then on other times they have looked ordinary, so couldn't split them. Hope it's a cracker.
Looking forward to Clarke v Wardley II, but don't think it will be as good as the first one.
