It was mentioned on News earlier that she has apparently had the baby and her family have said that as she's British it's upto Britain to get her home safely ?

Some tidy Heavyweight fights already to start 2019 Parker v Chisora Whyte v Brezeale Fury v Wilder Josua v Miller and allegedly Usyk v Povetkin , that's showing intent and balls mind to take on Povetkin in his first Heavyweight fight if it is true. Hopefully if the fight fights come off we will see an undisputed champion in 2020 if not late 2019 if mandatorys can be put aside .

Just been looking through rankings etc and tbh I did not realise just how poor the Heavyweight Division is at this moment. Ok its the Heavyweight division and one punch can change everything we know that but outside Joshua Wilder Fury and maybe Whyte there is basically a lack of talent available. Ok Usyk is a class act but hes yet to fight at Heavyweight and Joyce is yet to step up. I think Pulev has the size and enough talent to mix it with the top three but cant say hed beat any of them. Wilder was exposed by Fury and was also being exposed by Ortiz before being stopped. Wilder is the typica

Agreed he's not the best boxer in the division but he's arguably the biggest puncher in the division. You are right though it was down to Furys boxing,he was at fault for the knockdowns through clowning and giving his height away. I think that's what makes the rematch so interesting, Fury should improve in a lot of areas but not sure what Wilder is going to do different .

Fury was nowhere near the level what he was before his lay off and it was evident during the Wilder fight yet he stid had too much for Wilder,monster power aside he exposed how poor technically Wilder really is.Wilder took the Fury fight gambling on him not being ready and thought he would sneak the advantage. After two poor come back fights Fury went over to America to take on Wilder despite many on here saying it was a publicity stunt,fight would never happen etc etc. It was easy to see that Fury was not as sharp,not as fit,he was heavier,ring rusty and clearly not as mentally tuned in/focus

Born and bred in London to Jamaican parents and then moved to Canada when he was 12,he can't help where his mother wanted to move to . He does have dual English/Canadian nationality although he has always considered himself British. Unlike Mo Farah born in Mogadishu Somalia , Britains most successful track athlete in modern Olympic Games history ? .

Would you agree Gnash that the big Promoters have to much say in the game now ? It does seem strange on Whytes part mind to refuse a fight with Joshua with four titles on the line to go and fight Brezeale just to become WBC mandatory .
-
Whyte does deserve a title shot but also some of his decisions have stopped him getting a title shot.Refusing to fight Pulev for IBF mandatory slot and also refusing to fight Ortiz for the WBC mandatory slot did not help his case and he also had the Joshua fight but wanted more money. Whyte is also in the WBO no1 position at the moment but once Usyk confirms he is moving up to Heavyweight he will be installed immediately as the WBO mandatory,bit hard on Whyte tbf. At least the Whyte v Brezeale winner will be the WBC mandatory. As for Fury he got lucky and Wilder chose him as a voluntary thinki

Nice gesture lads and a tidy job that ?

Did a pieps search out of curiosity and this site came up also https://www.bergzeit.co.uk/avalanche-transceivers/ hth

Anybody else seen the interview with John Barnes on Sky news about this Liam Neeson story ?
-
Clever stuff that ?
-
Fingers crossed we get to see the three of them all face each other this year,it's been a good thread this one. ?
-
Another twist now, reports on American boxing forums are saying that Joshua and Miller have agreed terms to fight at MSG on either June 1st or 8th. Not sure if Wembley April 13th show is cancelled now but not sure who else could fill it tbh . Also the Wilder v Fury rematch has been mentioned as taking place on May 18th.

Whats on the link ? Just showing me a Freeads page.

Mate had an Atra GTE stole back in the day,all they did with the handbrake/gearstick lock was to push gear lever as far as possible over to passenger side with there foot until gear lever bends then the lock slides off the handbrake. When the car was recovered the lock was still swinging on the gearstick, useless anti theft device tbh .
-
Still not a done deal yet lads,Hearn has now approached Miller with his first offer,getting a bit late in the day now for Joshua not having his opponent named yet .
-
Its one of those series where you are constantly waiting for it to pick up,but nothing ever comes of it.I watched the full first series but ive got no interest in the second series tbh .
-
I think its already been mentioned but this rematch between Joshua and Whyte could be a right old tear up while it lasts,rival postcodes, bragging rights,bit of needle,non too fond of each other since teenagers, defo the ingredients for a good fight .The first fight was a good one but I think this one will better it,while it lasts anyway .
-
AJ has mandatorys to deal with after Whyte if it is him next,Pulev is IBF mandatory,WBA is either Charr or Chagaev (poor),WBO I think Usyk will be mandatory now despite Whyte being no1 contender for a while,IBO Im not sure tbh. A unification fight takes precedence so the Wilder fight could be made next but I doubt it also Hearn is known to lobby the organisations to get the fights he wants. All everybody is interested in is to see AJ,Fury and Wilder all face each other to sort out who is the best,apart from them three there is nobody else really to trouble them in the division .
-
Its looking like Dillian Whyte in April for Joshua , anouncement on Monday . Like it or not Whyte deserves a title shot imo .
-
At end of the day there just competing sportsmen and even if they are huge rivals I doubt there is any hatrid between the three, unlike some fighters who absolutely detest each other. I can however see a bit needle between Fury and Wilder if they are rematching next, both know the loser will fall by the wayside and lose out massively in terms of money and legacy .
-
Was that on Graham Norton show last night ? I watched it and Joshua spoke well about both Fury and Wilder, not a bad word about either of them. I watched a Youtube clip months back and it was mentioned that both Fury and Joshua do talk on the phone to each other apparently.

Fury is technically the Lineal Heavyweight champ after beating Wlad. The victor replaces the previous holder . You can only become Lineal Champ by either beating the previous champion in the ring, or if the lineal champ retires then there is a box off bettween two or more top contenders to see who gets recognised as the Lineal champ. Fury took it from Wlad and there has not been a box off either to name a new Lineal champ .hth https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/general/boxing/anthony-joshua-tyson-fury-lineal-heavyweight-world-champion-boxing-a8535236.html It depends how it works now

Max I thought Fury vacated the WBA and WBO ? The IBF was stripped though as he was rematching Wlad .Im a Fury fan but Joshua has took every opportunity he has been given though and tbf it wasnt his fault the belts were vacant, he still had to beat the nominated fighters to get them. We just need to wait and hope the Fury v Joshua fight is made sooner rather than later .
