Tom-the-eagle Flag Croydon 11 Mar 20 10.10pm

Usyk v Chisora
23rd of May
O2

Cracking fight.

Personally I think Usyk has the best boxing skills in the division but will he be big enough to deal with the real big boys. At 6’3 I believe he will be an inch taller than Del Boy but will certainly be giving away weight.

SKY showing this on box office which is a f@cking liberty but I’ll probably get a seat for this one.

Yep ill watch this one. As you've said before Tom Chisora is the gate keeper to the big boys... Usyk is an unbelievable boxer, however as you have said again I just don't think he will be big enough for the division.

 


Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!!

Looking forward to it, love the way Usyk boxes. Think Del Boy will feel like he is sparring with a light weight, eating punches all night and not be able to land anything.
Long 36 minutes , unless the ref stops it , I think.

Chisora doesn't seem to have time chasing him, though i think at 36, he might just start to show his age in this fight.
I think Usyk may just be too agile for Chisora. I think it will be a long fight, maybe go to points.

33 years ago today, Hagler v Leonard.

Hagler was unbeaten in 11 years, Suger Ray was coming back from a three year retirement.

Razor thin decision.

Hell of a fight, hell of an era for middleweights

Mike Tyson reported to have been offered one million dollars to fight Sonny Bill Williams in an exhibition bout.

Tyson now 53 but looking good in recent YouTube clips. Tyson says he wants a couple of bouts and will donate the purses to charity.

Hagler was fantastic but in hindsight he should’ve retired after beating John Mugabi.

Looking more and more likely Tyson will return. WBC president has said he will give Mike a ranking if he does.

Tyson is 54 next month. Utter madness yet I’d still watch it

Yep, Tyson would do well to keep well away from the professionals and stick to the exhibition idea.

Pads don't hit back.

There was a reason why Tyson retired in the first place for his health he should be refused a license.

42 years ago today, Larry Holmes v Ken Norton

Great fight from a great era of heavyweight boxing.

Be interesting to see how these superb fighters coped with today’s giants.
