Completely agree but he's been sublime tonight.

7-1 and he's off for an early night.

Eubank Jr V Benn rematch is announced. After the mismatch of the first fight were the difference in weight was so obvious it was always going to be in favour of Eubank Jr. There are huge fights out there for Eubank Jr but he refuses to take that step up to world class opponents. Is Eubank Jr just a great businessman that is extracting as much money from the sport while he is in the capable or has he realised that stepping up to the likes Canello would end in a huge defeat. I thought that the path of a boxer was to achieve the best he possibly can be, maybe Eubank Jr has fought all the class fighters he wants and defeat is something he doesn't want to experience again. Meanwhile the bank balance increases at the cost of the glory of being the best in the division.

Hats off to Daniel Dubios after reaching the heights of being heavyweight champion, he is now going after Usyk for a second time.
If you saw the first fight Daniel was really in the fight up to round 6 and then came the boardline low blow which Usyk took forever to recover. I really hope that Daniel has learnt from the first fight and come out with a better game plan to beat the man that is a ring master and excellent boxer. If Daniel gets him early happy days but if its a game of chess there can be only one winner.

Usyk is a level above anyone else out there . You never see him unfit , overweight, he never badmouths anyone....his talking is done in the boxing ring , his fists do the talking......he is a class act as a fighter and as a person . Basically the opposite of Tyson Fury ......anyway , I think Dubois had good reason to believe he could get a different result to the first fight given his last few performances.......but I don't know how many levels these fighters must raise their game to get Usyk , from what I see maybe the only one presently that offers anything different maybe Kabayel . Usyk has no future fight plans presently.....I just hope the next isn't Fury , others deserve a chance , like Kabayel or Parker .

Usuk has great movement a good chin and is a fantastic counter puncher. He is abit of throw back in terms of concentrating more on technique and timing rather than power.

Far too many heavy weight boxers relying on power punches these days.

The one boxer IMO who would cause him problems is Itauma. But he may never get the chance, still learning his trade and making his mark, but that kid has the blend of technique, power and intelligence.

Thought Daniel would have learn't something from the last fight but actually Usyk started well and just destroyed Daniel... Time for a new trainer and get back to boxing

Need to watch out for a guy called Agit Kabayel, he beat Big Bang Zhang in 6 rounds with some good body shots.

I think Dubois clung on to the theory he hurt Usyk last time and thought he had won by KO , but was cheated out if it , so he could do it again ......that's the theory anyway . Never going to outbox Usyk , I don't think any heavyweight is now , unless age suddenly at some stage gets him and he slows rapidly . I think , maybe ....only people who might have a chance are top end fighters from his previous weight class .....Bivol , Benavidez , Opetiai ... excellent cruiser or light heavies who have the movement . Beterbiev has ruled himself out as says he wouldn't want to fight Usyk and age is against Beterbiev too . I don't see a heavyweight beating Usyk , Kabayel brings something different, Itauma is too young and inexperienced. Maybe Usyk retires unbeaten, I think at most he fights 3 times more , hope Fury isn't one , sooner he is off the scene the better .

Did the same with Makhmudov too .....at the time an unbeaten monster , Kabayel is very good and his body shots are vicious.

I watched the full Canelo Alvarez v Terence Crawford fight just now.

Wow! what a brilliant fight from two great champions 👏

As good as Canelo is, he got a lesson in boxing, punching and movement last night.

Fantastic display from both boxers, but especially Crawford.

All boxing fans should watch this fight :love:

With the hype of Crawford and Canelo there is one guy no one wants to go near, I wonder why????? Every once in a while you get offered a fight that you know you can never win.... Jaron Boots Ennis is a level above, a master that is so good they avoid or make as many excuses not to fight this guy.. Now Jaron is moving up a weight..... says alot to me..... Watch Out this Guy is the New Real Deal....

Everything on the line for AJ.

His career as a serious boxer is over if he doesn't win this by knockout very quickly

Pretty convinced either of the Klitschko brothers both pushing or past 50 would knockout Jake Paul.

So AJ better

Not entirely sure what AJ's thought process is in taking this 'fight'. Can only be money as this does nothing for his reputation and, as Cjay says, if he doesn't knock him out in a couple of rounds, he's going to look more and more like a busted flush.
