That was rough to watch. Probably should’ve been stopped two or three rounds sooner. Wardley’s clearly tough as shit but he was a zombie at the end there.

I'm pretty sure Ben Davison would have tried to get Michael Watson off the canvas to continue to fight Eubank in the second fight. Wardley is unbelievably brave but he needed saving from himself and Ben blew it. 

Lots of drama in that fight though. Dubois won every round he wasn't knocked down in. 

Chelli chinning Morrell was incredible as well

Yeah, the corner needs to be held accountable, it went on 2-3 rounds too long. I know they can argue Wardley will always have a chance but he took life altering amounts of damage.

Referee, Cornermen, and Doctor need a fucking hiding for that. The last 3 rounds were hard watching. It's being celebrated by Ol' Fisheyes as a Heavyweight Epic. I just saw a man who was out on his feet and couldn't defend intelligently get smashed in for about 10 minutes. That's not an epic, it's unsafe.

From what I've read, Davidson and Wylie were seconds, the lead was another trainer who I'm not familiar with.

Obviously that doesn't necessarily excuse Davidson, who I agree should have petitioned to pull Wardley out far sooner (assuming he didn't).

And he’s already on about the rematch clause. Fuck me.

There was a moment before the start of the 10th (i think) when Wardley could barely stand up, everyone seen it. How they let him fight that round i'll never know.

Itauma vs Dubois and Usyk vs Kabayel are the fights to make next imo. 

Both would interest me more than Fury vs Joshua.

Im not convinced Usyk fights again after Rico, I think this may be him cashing out.

Dubois' resume is looking pretty damn good nowadays.

Miller, Hrgovic, AJ, Wardley. All stopped, all battered. And Dubois, I had to check this, is only 28?!?!?! Which would have made him 22 when he lost to Joyce.

I wonder how Fury's resume holds up Vs Dubois, I would say they are pretty close, considering Fury popped dirty after the Klitschko win.

Dubois Vs Itauma for a World Title later this year would work. Could it fill Wembley or maybe Spurs?

Fury tested positive for Nandrolone in a test taken around the Hammer bout in February of 2015, not in the timeframe immediately before or after the Klitschko fight later in the year.

Fair enough, but he does hang around with that dodgy Dr Usman fella alot, so I wouldn't completely rule it out.
