Yes Nick, the fight game has certainly changed and like I said, I've never been a fan, but the only time I got excited about it was when Henry Cooper managed to floor Cassius Clay. And that was 61 years ago. Crikey! I'd rather watch that, or any other classic bout on YouTube these days than a modern fight! Hagler vs Hearns still my favourite to rewatch!
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

I will be watching this...I will be supporting Fury as he's British and working class.....he lies all the time and his father is a bully and a nutter who lives through his son....Even so the Furies are anti woke which frankly makes up for it. Uysk is a proper bloke and if he wins I'll tip my hat. I think this is a fight where Uysk has to overcome Fury's physical advantages to win....So we should know pretty quickly in the fight how it's going to go. Fury's real height isn't six nine but sex seven and a half....which makes him four inches taller. His weight helps but Usyk always has that disadvantage.....the real advantage is Tyson's reach advantage of seven inches. We all know seven inches makes quite the difference. I think the good chins they both have means it goes the distance....unless Fury wins by body shot as Uysk has shown weakness there. Edited by Stirlingsays (16 May 2024 11.12pm) seriously, what does that even mean and why is it a good thing?

Having learned all his weaknesses. Fury looks jaded and hungover. More interested in money than the glory of beating a tough guy. Edited by PalazioVecchio (22 May 2024 3.14pm)

why good to not be Woke ? cos your society just may be prevented from turning into the worst Poverty Crime-ridden no-go Zones of Sweden/France/England. Poland/Hungary are not Woke and it is safe for women & kids to walk the streets.
