Paid Members Egg Shen Posted August 7 Author Paid Members Share Posted August 7 Bit late to put much up about it, but thought the Riyadh Season card was great last week. I dunno how the pacing was live because it was a long show but with the benefit of the fast forward button it was a really good show, enjoyed every fight.

Paid Members Egg Shen Posted August 12 Author Paid Members Share Posted August 12 Angelo Leo landed this humdinger to beat Luis Alberto Lopez on Saturday. Big underdog too. Glad i watched this one last night, i very nearly skipped it. Ref completes one of the most pointless 10 counts I can remember though.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted September 8 Author Paid Members Share Posted September 8 A week out, but why not... Canelo fights Satuday. Seems like there's been more negativity surrounding this fight than any other Canelo fight I can remember. Really feels like Canelo has entered a stage of his career where people are starting to feel he's avoiding fighting the best and is cherry picking opponents, bit of a shame but I like the fight, the card is solid too. If Berlanga had continued some kind of KO run running into this I think the buzz would be massive, but it's massively cooled on Berlanga since 2001. Still, Mexican Indendence Day Canelo fights are a spectacle...goes head to head with the UFC Sphere show too. Canelo Alvarez vs. Edgar Berlanga Erislandy Lara vs. Danny Garcia Caleb Plant vs. Trevor McCumby Rolly Romero vs. Manuel Jaimes Stephen Fulton vs. Carlos Castro   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverYield Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 It definitely could be better. But it definitely could, and has, been worse. That's just boxing, I'm looking forward to it, any card with Plant & Fulton on is one I can get behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gooner Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 The Joshua vs Dubois card I'm looking forward to watch. Some good fights on paper and the main event I find intriguing as not completely sure who will win, I'm edging slightly towards Joshua, but going by recent form Dubois wins have been more impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d-d-d-dAz Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 (edited) The Dubois/Joshua fight comes down to which Joshua is the real one. If he's the flat track bully his critics have always thought he was, who's scared of getting hit and leans back with his chin in the air at the sight of danger, Dubois will knock him out. If that was just a bad habit that Joshua shook after revisiting his entire style after the first Ruiz loss, he should win. But Dubois, for all his faults, is a ferocious fucker and, in danger, will bite down on his gumshield and just throw heat. If that doesn't work for 8 rounds, as in the Joyce fight, he might swallow it but that's a long time to stand downwind of an angry Dubois trying to take your head off if you're not that into getting a whack. I'm leaning towards Joshua by stoppage, but I wouldn't be completely stunned if its the other way around. I can't see it going the distance, either way.

Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted September 10 Paid Members Share Posted September 10 Joshua can't definitely get a bit wobbly in fights and Danny Dubious certainly has the artillery to get Joshua in a lot of trouble. On the other side of that though is how many times Hrgovic landed easily on Daniel in their fight. If Joshua lands that easily it won't matter, Dubois gets merked. A swift end to this one way or the other, first 4 rounds someone gets done and I'd just be leaning towards Joshua for the win but I wouldn't put money on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverYield Posted Tuesday at 08:34 PM Share Posted Tuesday at 08:34 PM Anything can happen when two heavies go to work, and I like Dan, he's a likeable chap and can whack, but simply put I fancy Joshua to take his head off within 6 rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted Thursday at 06:34 AM Author Paid Members Share Posted Thursday at 06:34 AM I'm fancying Dubois for the upset, especially at the odds being offered. Can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
