Old George is a pretty good comparison. What a fighter he was, wonderful man as well.

Joe could still do alright even if he lost tonight. Him vs Chisora would be a good fight even if he lost.

The Moorer fight is one of my favourites ever. Proper inspirational stuff - had a game plan, stuck with it and executed it perfectly. His power was ridiculous - makes me laugh when people say Wilder is the hardest hitting heavyweight; not even close to it. Foreman put loads to sleep with basic straight shots - didn't even matter if you saw it coming.

The Moorer fight is brilliant. I quite like underdog heavyweight fights like that. Harrison when he beat Sprott with one hand after being battered for 11 rounds. Danny Williams when he beat Scott Gammer with a dislocated shoulder.

Its a shame George stopped fighting after the Ali fight, they froze him out basically didn't they from memory.

Was Mark Potter. Daft fight that. Watched it live.
 
It’s a 50/50 fight and be interesting to see how both come out of it. Probably leaning towards Dubois by KO but it’s exciting to see the outcome.


Anyone staying up for Tyson vs Jones Jr? Can’t bring myself to watch it
I am not watching that later fight it's a joke, really dont want jones to ever get in a ring again.
Dubois has a good body shot on him,and that's the only time I have seen Joyce hurt.
Early stoppage for him or Joyce on pionts , who reminds me of those battling robots hands up punch away never stops, must be a nightmare to fight.

Whoever puts the other on the back foot basically wins. Proper 50/50.

Fair play if it was, just remember Gammer being around at that time. I used to enjoy the Skelton Harrison Sprott Williams fights even though they weren't brilliant. Skelton was probably the best out of that lot.

Danny Williams is still fighting I think which is horrible. Probably going to end up in a bad way if he carries on.
 
Re: Tyson and Jones Jr... a farce, obviously. Whoever pays for it deserves to be parted from their money, but whatever - the two of them have done well to milk a payday out of it.

My best guess is Jones takes a dive in second round or whatever, because this is the Tyson show.

If it's a serious fight (big if), I'd back Jones nine times out of ten (younger, fresher) but whatever. It's hardly worth discussing; it's a circus.
 
Can't fight in fits and starts like Dubois does for 12 rounds in terms of aerobics against someone fighting his pace and peppering your face with jabs every round.

Dubois needs to stop him inside 8 or he's in big, big trouble late on.
 

Joyce is deceptive. Does the basics really well - he's slow but deliberate, puts his feet in position well, throws when steady.

An absolute 'mare to fight. Dubois is looking basic in comparison.
