Don’t skip leg day folks.

Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk Undisputed - Feb 17th in Saudi.


Had to wait 25 years for the next Heavyweight Undisputed champion of the world now it's fast approaching. Regardless it's going to be off the hook. Check the time difference fight fans (Starts a lot early for you Americans/Canadians) Who you got winning and how?

What is Usyk weighing in at these days? It turns out that Wilder is even worse than we thought. So I'm sorta doubting my previous assessment of Fury as exceptional. I thought this fight vs Usyk not even worth making until only recently, given Fury's size and ability to dominate Wilder with it in the 2nd and 3rd fights. But his clinch game was exposed against Francis. And I'm now thinking Usyk could win this.

Being confident in either direction seems undue. There are a lot of unknowns.

Next fight is Ngannou v Joshua, my friend. If you can jump on to watch it should be about ~20 mintues to walkouts.

Holy ****.

That was destructive. Whoa.

I DID manage to be able to catch it, who knew it would be SIX hour fight card! LMAO!

Wow Hope Francis ok. Whose Joshua fight next? Who has the titles?

Brutal KO and you could argue ref shouldn't have let him continue after the previous knockdown. Credit to Ngannou. He's an MMA fighter who fought two of the top three heavyweights and doesn't look the worst of them at the moment. That honor goes to Tyson Fury.

Fury and Usyk hold the titles and Joshua's lost twice to the latter. Fury and Usyk fight in May to be undisputed champion. Joshua, along with boxing fans, will have to push to fight the winner.

Fury didnt take that first fight against francis seriously enough. Personally i think he is done in that regard and loses to Usyk.

Francis lost momentum for getting another big boxing match outside of gimmick matches like the Paul brothers. Guy is set for life now tho.

I hope Fury doesn’t get hit in the head by his sparring partner again and the fight takes place. I believe that Usyk already has an advantage, because Fury’s reputation is not very good.
By the way, yesterday I saw that Ronnie Coleman was advertising a heavy mug. I have long wanted to buy myself such a souvenir. I will definitely order myself a heavy mug from ROX.

Wow. Garcia with the upset tonight. He was just so much bigger and stronger than Haney tonight.

If there’s a rematch, Haney can’t let Garcia get away with weight bullying again.

That was the greatest boxing match I've ever seen. Not just the match itself but everything leading up to it. When Haney asked for 500k a pound Garcia must have been thinking to himself "got em".

I always thought Haney's greatest gift was his ability to shrink down for weigh ins. At 135 he always came in looking at least 2 divisions heavier than his opponent. Garcia's antics gave Haney and his dad the facade of an easy payday but what they should've done is call off the fight when Garcia came in 3 lbs over. Haney's punches had no sting at all against someone bigger than him.

If I'm Garcia I wouldn't give Haney a rematch. I don't think Garcia can beat Haney without those 3 lbs (I'm guessing by fight night it's at least 5-7 lbs advantage) It's not like Haney is a big ticket draw or anything. I would just move on to fight Teofimo Lopez or go on to 147 and fight bigger names.

wow this is why I love boxing ! Garcia really surprised me and everybody else. Haney had nothing for him and Garcia put him on the floor and he didn't even sit on his punches, he exposed Haney and definitely no need for rematch. But The guy that nobody wants to fight at 140 is Matias
