I can't be the only one who thinks Kellerman is a total charlatan right? I don't get how you can be in the position of a highly regarded analyst when you've never boxed or trained anyone yourself.

I think boxing is such a gruelling sport that having first hand experience of what the participants are going through is invaluable. I do like Bernstein though I know him mostly as.a commentator. Obviously many ex pros are terrible and are incapable of analytical thought, like Carl Froch and his 10-10 rounds. But I'll always value the opinion of a guy like Manny Steward over Merchant and Kellerman.

Joshua's at his best when he gets drawn into a brawl and doesn't have to try and pick apart a tough/patient opponent, which is why a Wilder fight will be amazing.

why is Wilder fighting Stiverne again

Doubt Joshua's team are worried, if he can be drilled to slip Wlad's leaping left hook he can avoid the Wilder Windmill. They're trying to make another Wembley event but they need Wilder to get his name out there, in America he's still getting overshadowed by tribal tatted cage fighters. He also refused a massive payday to fight Dillan Whyte for some unknown reason.

There used to be some criticism that Joshua was a stiff, robotic "manufactured" boxer a la Frank Bruno but the Wlad fight dispelled most of that.

Rigo has no bargaining power really, his promotion consists of social media memes, it's either fight Loma on his terms or accept a wasted career.

All Rigo had to do was not quit, the excuses were ready made for him. What a way to ruin your legacy.

Dorticos is a bizarro Cuban, poo poo technically but a granite chin

Should have been stopped after the second knockdown, Dorticos didn't deserve an embarrassing KO like that

Would the winner become the best ever CW? I love Holyfield but I feel his era of cruisers pales in comparison to the current one.

Groves is so fragile. He's outclassing Eubank and has him cut yet you still feel he could get sparked at any moment.

looks like Groves dislocated his shoulder in that last round

The fact that this is the first mis-step in either tournament is pretty remarkable by boxing standards

Something seems fishy with this fight. Too much at stake for Wilder, and Ortiz is signed to the same promoter, old, inactive, off the gear, and Cuban.

We don't need GGG-Canelo 2, everybody knows who really won. If it's not on the level what's the point. Only downside is GGG losing a huge payday he deserves.

somehow Eddie Hearn has managed to get $1billion over 8 years from streaming platform DAZN for 16 US shows per year, perhaps signalling the end of Al Haymon and Boxing on HBO I want him to negotiate my next pay rise at work https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/general/boxing/eddie-hearn-boxing-1bn-deal-matchroom-dazn-streaming-giant-pay-per-view-a8345866.html

Marching Powder posted:if i was mikey i'd have a fully invigorated desire to make the loma match Garcia has a shorter reach than Linares and has much slower hands and feet. Obviously his power is something to be wary of but I bet Loma won't let him land, at least if he takes a lesson from the flash knockdown last night.

Lennox Lewis - Frank Bruno was fought outside in the freezing cold and rain in October Surely now they can just use the Millennium Stadium with the roof on?

I think he's not quick or powerful enough to pull off his bootleg Roy Jones impression at world level The other Josh who's fighting Postol this weekend looks more like the real deal

I was just going to mention how much this reminded me of Calzaghe v Lacy reminder that Gassiev would beat any boxer below 200lb

the thing about Usyk is that we still don't know how well he can take heavyweight power, Gassiev only caught him once and it wasn't entirely flush will be fun finding out though

AJ/Wilder is obviously happening in spring or summer 2019 once they get done with their seemingly-dangerous-but-not-really next opponents. Not sure why there's so much talk of one ducking the other.

I'd prefer to see Wilder-Whyte. You'd back Wilder's power of course, but has he been in with anyone prepared to brawl form the opening bell? Wilder fights usually seem to consist of them both standing in front of each other and flinching until he eventually unleashes the windmill.
