d-d-d-dAz Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago (edited) Does anyone else struggle to sense the buzz with some of these 'huge' fights we're getting at the minute? The Sheikh is chucking so much money at these things, and the bells and whistles are there and then some, but I don't really get the sense anyone outside the usual fight bubble really cares. Joshua is still a huge star, but all this money and it still feels like no more people know who Dubois, Hamzah or Willy Hutchinson are compared to before the Great A-Sheikh-ening in boxing. That crowd was absolutely tepid for anyone not named Joshua. It felt like people who were sightseeing in London and just hung around because there was a stage, and were secretly hoping it'd be Oasis or Peter Kay or something.

Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted 2 hours ago Paid Members Share Posted 2 hours ago We've become complacent Daz, and let's be honest this isn't the fight that we really want. We want Fury v AJ and anything else isn't going to really fire up the juices. This fight is OK, but pretending it's for a world title when we have all seen Usyk become undisputed is insulting. The IBF are taking the piss really. I'd sooner see Fury v AJ than this or the Fury v Usyk rematch. The best thing about this fight is that it knocks Froch down the attendance order another place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
