Shields was very good and if she carried any power would be untouchable. Thought Marshall did well but her herky-jerky style didn't allow her to plant her feet and put any power into her punches which in turn took away her main weapon. Dodgy result in the main support act between the 2 yanks. Mayer won it by 3 or 4 rounds but 2 of the English judges gave it to Baumgartner by a round. I thought Shields v Marshall was a great fight and I'm not normally a fan of women's boxing but it was superb. Exactly as you say if Shields carried power she would be untouchable. She's extremely talented and her speed and accuracy saw her through in the end. Marshall gave it her all though so fair play.
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!! |

Wilder dispatched Helenius at the end of round 1. Not really any surprises there, but Wilder's hand-speed is supersonic. I have to watch the replay in slow motion to actually catch it. I totally disagree with you. To me it was just Wilder knocking out another bum which is his level. Fury showed him up for the technically very limited fighter he is. Can't believe to be honest you've said Usyk wouldn't want any of Wilder. In my opinion Usyk would totally show Wilder up. It would be like a cat playing with a mouse. Usyk really is that good.

Dillian Whyte does the job on Jermaine Franklin last night, and therefore is now due a shot at Anthony Joshua. I wonder what team Joshua will do ,....? (perchance a lot of talking and a massive Swweeeerve)

You make some good points casual. AJ always seems to talk a good fight, but as soon as he steps in the ring, looks immediately highly vulnerable.

Up next: Chris Billam Smith at Selhurst in June. Just a thought (but why not?)

Such a shame he took up boxing late, but could still go all the way. I certainly would not want to take a punch off him.
