    No time for Fury makes a mockery of the sport also reminds me of Joe Bugner another master of the art of non contact boxing

    Daylight robbery that they declared it a draw. GGG smashed him. Easily won by about 5-6 rounds.

    * joke.

    He needs to fight a big heavyweight who will force him to actually box.

    Regardless of the Seferi height difference and all that there was just too much love and banter in the ring between them haha, Fury needs to fight somebody that dislikes him and wants to knock him out. Too hard to judge that one fight but I hope he can get back to the highest level. We shall see.

    Both can bang. Both easy to hit but seen both 2/3 time's now showing power..

    Ritson seems to be really heavy handed but..

    No he didn’t. Apart from Byrd (which was a joke tbf) the other two judges had it extremely close. It was a close fight.
    Me, personally, I leaned to Canelo just edging it and wrote it at the time in here.

    Was gonna mention this later. it’s a good card. I fancy Ritson to do the damage, he’s heavy handed like you say and destroyed Cardle last time out.

    Il be watching fitbaw and taping this for later.

    He can knock Hyland jnr out but Cardle showed it's very easy to hit him..

    Wouldn't be surprised if Hyland causes an upset..

    Don’t know much about Hyland, he’s unbeaten but ain’t he ? You reckon he can take Ritson’s power ?

    Seen him on a couple of Belfast shows under Burnett and another that had Barnes and when the younger Conlan got stopped in another..

    Probably won't be able to take Ritson's power but Ritson is very hit-able which gives this fight an edge..

    Got the makings of a good fight then hopefully. The bookies have Ritson at 1/20, but we know that doesn’t mean much in boxing.
    Anyways, the fitbaw is back on, so il leave this for now and report back after I’ve watched it :50:

    Hyland jnr fought a crazy fight there..

    Trying to bang him out after getting dropped and got up doing it again..

    Ref could've let Hyland get to the bell with only seconds left to regroup as he was up bouncing about..

    Ritson is too heavy handed..

    Bellew talking * about how he'd knock Fury out straight away tonight..

    Ridiculous this guy has a platform after beating a cripple twice..

    The balloon has to be popped, Stevenson style. He has to go. He's unbearable..

    Good shout McGuire with the Ritson fight :56:
    The boy has some serious power, he’s no interested in doing overtime that’s for sure.

    Can’t stand kelly. I can appreciate he’s a talent and is going places, but I can’t stand him, he’s an arrogant *. Will love the day he gets laid out.

    I’m hoping Fury has another fight and loses a stone and shakes more rust off, then he’ll be ready to retire that *. Fury will end *’s career.

    Just looking at him makes you cringe, he’ll talk himself into a fair pay packet but a very sore jaw.

    Thought it'd go longer..

    Hyland was game. Surpised no one said the ref could've let him hear the bell at least when seemingly ok and seconds to go..

    Ritson would've got to him though again and again..

    Yep. Loves his self. Getting caught and shouting woo during the fight..

    Almost as full of himself as his * of a trainer Adam Booth..

    I'd love to see what Fury would do to this fat clown. Bellew will never do it though as he'd be sparked out in the first couple rounds..

    Without question the most cringey, false * in boxing. Easily.
    Then it’s AJ :fear:
