I think he'll win too


Same … i hope he does as well .. I like everything about him .. plus he’s best mates with Lomachenko


Fury has been banned previously for drugs as I recall and he’s suddenly coming in very light is suspicious to my mind

Yeah it looks that way … though the previous saudi fights were later

:::

Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk are expected to walk to the ring at around 11.05pm UK time, which will be 1.05am on Sunday local time. The fight start time is not guaranteed however and previous fights in Saudi Arabia, especially Anthony Joshua's win over Francis Ngannou, have started much later.

The DAZN package seems ok .. you just have to remember to cancel the subscription before 17th June

From what I can tell - please advise if I am wrong !!



Dazn / Sky / TNT are all charging £25 but DAZN includes a month of DAZN including Taylor v Catterall 2 and that Promoter Special where 5 fighters from each camp go to battle .

( maybe even the upcoming bouts of Tank Davis and Broner’s comeback !)

He is happy they fight again
which could mean one of the belts will not be in it.
As they do not want them to fight again.

NATE DIAZ has BEATEN Jorge Masvidal after 10 brutal rounds of boxing in California.

The feuding pair last fought five years ago in the UFC, with Masvidal winning their grudge match for the BMF title.



This has been a brilliant fight between two fighters who are not all about the boxing life but they have sure given the 18,000 in the Honda Arena something worth watching.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

[Zizu]

Diaz beat rival Jorge Masvidal by majority decision Saturday might at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.
The judges scored it 95-95, 97-93, 98-92.
“It feels good to get the job done for sure,’’ Diaz said. “Mission accomplished.”
The 39-year-old fighters pummeled each other through the fight and maintained an impressive pace.
“I thought I won,’’ Masvidal said. “I thought I hit the harder shots. He did land more volume. But I definitely thought I landed the way, way better shots.’’
The two former UFC stars faced off more than 4 ½ years after Diaz and Masvidal fought for the inaugural BMF belt in the Octagon. Masvidal won the fight when it was stopped because Diaz had a deep cut below his left eye.

2 minute rounds

Bookies have Jake Paul as odds on favourite

Tyson 2:1 underdog


Guess Tyson could go rogue and knock the kid out first round and lose his paycheque



I will only watch if Tyson wins .. ( the next day )

ffs, I wouldn't be shocked to find out that's true, little weasel that Jake Paul is but tbh I'm more interested in Katie Vs Amanda anyway. There's always the chance he knocks him out in Round 3 I guess :laugh:

[arista]

[Seeing rumours that the Mike Tyson v Jake Paul is fixed to let Paul win]

Yes Jake it is part of WWE
so Mike going down
could be an Unofficial deal, for sure.

Apparently so

It’s saying 8 hours 20 minutes to wait - so they are advertising 1am start


The other channels are suggesting sometime between 3am and 5am so I will try and stag awake throughout !!

Soooo another snippet

Mike Tyson supposedly has a $5 million bonus clause if he doesn’t knock out the YouTuber ..

It’s not fixed but it seems to be heavily weighted in the young guy’s favour UNLESS it is a complete set up of course

Tyson gets a guaranteed $20 million… plus bonuses..

Went down a mates to watch this last night, mainly for spectacle of watching Tyson box live. It'll never happen again. And we were too young to appreciate him in his prime. Anyway, it was crap. Best fight was Taylor's easily. Glad Tyson, and some talented boxers got a decent payday. But hopefully this is the end of the Youtuber/Infulencer vs Retired boxer/MMA fighter fad.

She's 38 years old now, if she has 2 more boxing fights she'll probably be 40 retiring, I think that's probably too old to retrain in a whole different sport tbh I doubt she'd want to anyway

There’s only the two ‘trilogy’ fights left though and does she want another couple of wars that she could easily lose

UFC would be a massive payday with little risk


I’m sure I heard that she included a bit of MMA stuff in her training ( as does Tyson Fury for example )

She would either overpower and stop her opponent with a constant barrage of punches OR may get taken down and choked out fairly fast or she could tap out after talking little punishment

by round 8 the Bigger French Boxer threw Eubank on the floor

Also Eubank Cut above Eye - Blood Rushing out.

By now 2 Points taken away From French Erdogan
