    I'd proper like Skeete to roll back the year's here..

    Heard good thing's about him in his gym. Technically he was as good as anyone in his division....just lacked power..

    Sheeraz is so big and powerful though..

    * poor that from Sheeraz..

    2 or 3 time's round the temple and back of the head when he had Skeete down and changed the whole fight..

    Way too good Yarde there. Too explosive and Arthur couldn't live with it..

    Thought the stoppage was premature though..

    That reeked of Haye vs Harrison. That * Arthur wasn't interested from the start. Sat down before it even started fs, and he could easily have beat the count by looks of it.

    Chisora is getting leathered in this fight but he’s one tough * I’ll give him that.

    He’s hard as nails chisora. Mad as a brush as well. Parkers trying to get his name back in contention but can’t see it

    Both of these are so far off the big guns in the division it's frightening..

    Chisora's got some chin and game, Parker is quick but lacks finishing power..

    I’ve never seen fights more fixed than these Jake Paul ones. The amount of money they are bringing in he’d never allow himself to be beaten and his opponents hardly care either. Actually embarrassing I’ve even said that in the boxing thread.

    I actually hate him, genuinly can't stand him. Strange because I actually like his brothers videos and found them good fun.

    That fight wasn’t fixed ffs :giggle1:

    He’s banjoed the lad into next week. A lot of people were simply under the impression that a Youtuber couldn’t beat an MMA fighter in boxing and are now performing mental gymnastics rather than just accepting they were wrong.

    That was a peach of a knockout tbh, gotta respect the lad he is getting in there with a killer, he is by no means a good boxer he would get planted by the cruiserweights but still putting himself in there and risking getting flatlined, if he fought some legit cruiserweight though he would get done easily, he was gassing against Woodley.

    I’m not sure Woodley deserves that ‘killer’ tag in the ring mate :giggle1:

    His MMA credentials don’t mean much here. Both he and Jake appeared to be novice * level based on that fight, and neither would be entirely out of place on the white collar scene.

    It’s the most telegraphed punch I’ve seen, probably ever. If a former UFC champion can’t see that coming and is happy to stand in front of it, then he’s quite happy to be flattened, take his money and move on.

    I’ve seen more telegraphed punches in both elite boxing and MMA.

    I think what happened is people were simply of them belief that the level of boxing in the UFC is better than it actually is. They’re now struggling to cope with the reality - that it’s not very good on average at least. There are a few outliers.



    This isn’t a fixed fight. It’s someone getting flatlined. You can even see him try to move away from it but fail to do so as it’s too late.

    Ignoring all of that, his demeanour after it wasn’t that if someone who didn’t care. He was clearly devastated.

    I’m not under the impression that simply being in the UFC means you should be beating YouTube boxers.

    I just believe there’s far too much money involved in this Jake Paul project that’s happening and it won’t end soon. Although the end is in sight with the brain damage talk now.
