I’ve not seen yet, will catch tomorrow. Dodgy decision?

I caught the last few rounds. Not much to see there. Prolongs Whyte’s career a bit longer…strange scenario that two fighters that maybe should be hanging up the gloves are in, or will be in, top level fights next year. Fury v Chisora next week, AJ and Whyte in 2023.

Probably had his best rounds after the post, but pundits thought so. See what you think.

Dubois contest sounded interesting.
But the mismatch was predictably a mismatch!

Didnt see the Dubois fight.
Saw Fury entertain himself for 10 rounds against someone who should have retired a while back. The post fight banter with Usyk and Joyce was more entertaining!

Dubois famously (and sensibly) took a knee versus Joyce. This time it appeared his leg was injured. Not heard an explanation for it yet.
Chisora was a good punchbag for 10 rounds. Brave and durable, as always. That didn’t tell us anything about Fury. Hopefully, he gets a deal done with Usyk or Joshua.

I was going to order it out of habit but saw it was £26.95! Good to see Fury back in the ring though even it was a glorified warm up.

An absolute joke of a fight. Chisora's corner should be ashamed of themselves for not throwing in the towel, and as for the clowns booing the stoppage.....

£26.95 for that fight is ridiculous.
You didn’t miss much.

Great fight. The noise some of Thompson’s kicks made is awful.

He looked SO good.
Always been a fan of his,but sometimes think he’d av been better if he wasn’t such a nice guy.

Certainly didn’t lack any nastiness or killer instinct in that fight. However, it was fought on a level that suited Thompson and played to his strengths.

Ariel Helwani absolutely owning Paddy Pimblett ??

Pimblett scraped a result last night. No idea how it was given unanimously - but it was close. I quite like him, but wouldn’t be surprised if he’s found out as a hype train soon.
In the light heavyweight title fight I thought Ankalaev did enough. A split draw in a title fight where the belt is vacant is the worst result. What happens next? Do they have to replay it?

Yes, I thought Paddy lost. I think in a better quality fight he'll get caught out. Think it might be curtains for Till unfortunately.

Apparently they offered him more than Lesner and the most in heavyweight history. Wonder if he was serious about a fight with Fury and didn’t want tying up in a contract. It doesn’t sit well with me as it almost harks back to the old days of the UFC where those competing for the belt are not the ‘best’.
I think Gane cause Jones problems.
