Furys camp were saying Wlad had packing in his shoes as they both looked same size at weigh in and I sort of laughed it off,and they did look same size to be fair and everybody was questioning if Fury really was 6'9" ! However when they got in the ring Fury was a lot taller than Wlad so there was substance to what Furys camp was saying and the other gamesmanship Wlads camp had tried. The fight was poor but this is boxing and while Furys style may not have been fan friendly it worked and he won the Heavyweight Title of the World. I can only see one way Wlad can do things different in the rem

It would also be fairer to bring the weigh ins back to the morning of the fight so there all on a level playing field,to many fighters know how to manipulate the early weigh ins to there advantage. The fighters weights are monitored now so no need for the weigh in the day before the fight,as an example Canelo weighs in at 155 the day before and fights the next day at 175-180+ . Another good thing would be to ban " catcwheights " for title fights,the title fights should all be fought at the correct weight for the division .

I can't see what Wlad can do any differently to beat Tyson,he got clowned in the first fight and it might not have been pretty to watch but it was certainly effective. Tysons team was also astute enough to stop the gamesmanship by Wlads team like the gloves carry on,the padded ring floor and unwitnessed wrapping of hands etc. If Tyson can beat him again he can make a lot of serious money from other fights .

An oldie but what a voice ,Patsy Cline she could sing,she would be my best female singer,unfortunately killed at 30 in a plane crash.

Gnash I also said going rounds and having to tough it out when things are not going his way as well as taking shots. Like you just said we have seen Fury down a couple of times but he's got straight back up then stopped the opposing fighter. Remember when Bruno was thought to be the next big British fighter at 21-0 with 21 knockouts,then Bonecrusher came along and took Bruno further than he had ever been before, taking all his shots,then stopped him in the tenth that's the type of scenario I am thinking of. We have seen Fury down and up against it and he prevailed and we also know he can do 1

With the Oil Industry in the state it is they would be mad to ban him and lose an alleged 700 million to the Scottish Economy.

Povetkin is a formidable opponent for anybody especially if the fights in Russia. Joshua has done very well but I want to see him taking shots,going rounds and having to tough out a win when things are not going his way. At the moment Joshua has been an "ace" so far in just bullying everybody and dealing with them comfortably. Some very good fights to be made with the Heavyweights and that's just in Britain.

De Mori had a better record than Szpilka who Wilder just fought for the WBC belt,De Mori is better than anyone Wilder has faced as Champion with the only decent fighter on Wilders record being Stiverne who he was gifted a Title shot at after fighting nobody ranked in the top 50. Wilder got the title shot after beating Jason Gavern with 25 wins 16 losses and 4 draws yet Haye is getting flack for fighting De Mori with 30 wins 1 loss and 2 draws in 5 different Countries.

Haye v Whyte would be interesting and I think Whyte would be up for it for the right money,I would go for Haye by ko in less than three rounds .

I remember Springview wrote some good articles back in the early days of the ED/RD, rip .

Be interesting now to see the path Haye takes and which fighters he can get to fight him on his way back to a Title shot,Ive a feeling he will have to pay top money to get them in the ring with him.I cant see Hearn looking to match Joshua up with Haye this year like he had said a few weeks back. Certainly interesting times ahead now in the Heavyweight division and like him or not its all down to Tyson beating Wladimir. Sad thing is after Tysons win the Yanks could not wait to strip him of the IBF belt and now they have two world champions because of it. Haye should target these two belts what

People complaining about Haye fighting DeMori after nearly four years out yet Wilder the WBC champ fights Spizkilla in a title fight and that is fine and it still took Wilder nine rounds to stop him ! Fury and Haye would both beat Wilder comfortably,Haye by early ko and Fury if not by a wide points decision could also cause Wilder to quit or stop him late .
-
Haye with his power,speed and now size will be a handful for any Heavyweight as long as his head/heart is truly in it. It looked like he had a bit of a chip on his shoulder when he entered the ring rather than his more jovial self which was nice to see,he has achieved a lot in his career but I think he now realises he could have achieved a lot more. Joshua should not be rushed into fighting Haye this year at least,let him develop and get more experience and let Haye chase a Title shot this year.People can criticize his opponent but if Haye had not found him first Wilder would have been fightin

Out and the sooner the better .

After all the slagging Haye has had since the Wlad fight over his big toe issue I think it could make him more focused and hungrier this time around. Dont get me wrong Haye is a good fighter and acheived a lot but I think he still never gave it 100% and I was a big fan of Haye but I think he has a point to prove this time with all the nockers since the Wlad fight.

The Heavyweight division is so poor at the moment Haye has got to be in with a chance even though he is considered small in comparison to some of todays fighters in the Heavyweight division. Haye could skip the warm up fights and go straight in with Wilder now and more than likely beat him comfortably. Still some good matchups for him in the UK if they can be made with Fury and Joshua. I know Fury said he would not fight Haye but money talks in boxing .

Ive never bred a Wheaton cross in my life,I don't buy pups/dogs in I breed a litter from my own stuff when I need to replace a dog and give the rest away to working homes,I don't sell pups/dogs either. You must have me confused with somebody else.

BJS has won a version of the world title now in a close match up with Lee,Eubank needs to do the same and then they can fight again later down the line.BJS has fought better fighters than Eubank and Eubank has looked good so far but against limited opposistion.Eubank doesnt box good enough to beat BJS but he could out work him in a rematch as BJS clearly slows down later in a fight.Just need to see now which way both there careers go .

That seems to be another convenient death just like Brittons,makes you think !

Lee has the advantage in power but Saunders is the better boxer however can Lee actually land the big shot to stop Saunders or can saunders actually out box him ? Thing is though Lee has won all his fights under Booth but in all his fights with him he has always had to come from behind to get the win,will this happen in this fight as if he gives to many rounds away he will have to go after Saunders who always boxes better when fighters go after him.Should be a good match up and the tactics to negate each other will be interesting .

Joshua has a long way to go still,and as usual no regards for the rules in hitting after the bell and no respect for the Ref at the end.
