" Right then kids , we got the picture "  " put the money back in my wallet and go tidy your rooms "

Just watched it having already seen the result. So AJ sold out. It looked as scripted as WWE.., reckon Joshua was told to try and make it look convincing the first 4, then he could close it out. Jake

I didnt think Joshua was good enough to carry an opponent and make it look convincing in the way Mayweather did with Mcgregor....but hard as it is to fight someone who is not fighting you it was clear to see Joshua up the pace and intensity in the 5th/6th.....i was kind of hoping the Jake lad would be killed or at least seriously mangled as it would bring the sport into disrepute and stop any of this nonsense happening in future but i can see it getting worse and worse.....very worrying times for the sport in my opinion.

I’m sure you have said it before how popular boxers reflect society …. Do you think it’s a poor reflection of the sport that it seems that all taste , decorum and tradition seems to be bought by the Saudis waving money at the governing bodies flashing their arse. It’s f***ing stinks imho

Yes definitely mate look back through different era's elite fighters have always been popular world icons if you like.....Ali was seen as a hero through compassion as well as skills....before that Braddock,Louis etc seen as hero's for a different reason fighting through the Great Depression and World Wars.......now " hero's " are being made without any actual achievement just through being popular on Youtube and suchlike......its a popularity contest playing out in a sport that has been hijacked on a different financial level than whatever corruption Don King might have brought along......today literally any half talented fighter should really forget about perfecting his craft in the gym and just get working on his social media profile.....and yes the Saudis who know and understand nothing about the traditions and history of boxing are offering the sport up as something it never was.....ive said for a while now the governing bodies are there to protect the sport and as much blame as we want to shove on the Saudis ultimately its our own boxing people who have sold the sport out.
