    Great win for Troy Williamson last night. Can't see how the ref let it continue after the 3rd knockdown and also had 2 or 3 natural breaks in the action to replace the mouthguard which had apparently come out. Not a great showing there...

    There was no way AJ was going to look good. If he knocked him out - it was expected and makes boxing look bad. If he doesn't knock him out - he's washed up. If he gets a decision - it'll be a 'snoozefest'. He was a professional who knew he...

    Be a good lay up for a volleyball player that. Pathetic.

    I get it from your point of I really do and I agree with it. A lot of fighters would have really struggled with that movement last night though to be fair. It wasn’t just the movement, it was also the fact, Paul would try a rugby tackle him or...

    I don't doubt Paul was well coached on how to ride his bike but it was blatantly obvious that Joshua didn't fight seriously and that's why I'm criticizing him.

    Totally agree with what you’re saying. For me, boxing needs a massive overhaul. Judging needs to be completely changed. You have 3 judges, will all different opinions, shouldn’t be happening. We’ve seen far to many careers been derailed by poor...

    Hasn't happened in the last 100 years so no reason to think it happens anytime soon. In terms of pure sporting integrity boxing is up there with greyhound or horse racing. What gets me is how people are more outraged over Jake Paul than they...

    I’m not disagreeing with you at all but whatever way you wanna paint it, he’s a marketing genius whose made hundreds of millions from Boxing alone. This nobody takes the sport serious is such a rubbish statement. Boxing has been in the gutter...

    And yet the internet is full of grown men and 'proper' boxing purists who stayed up till stupid o'clock to watch it. They're the ones who've done a huge amount of online marketing for it by constantly fuelling chatboards, comments sections and...

    I’m not saying it wasn’t scripted, there was a lot more on the contract that wouldn’t allow Joshua to go 100%. From the first moment they went face to face, you could see how scared Paul was. Anyone who knows boxing, knows that if you have a...

    Difference is, Ngannou is better than Paul but this isn’t making excuses. Ngannou is easier for Joshua to beat than Jake Paul is because of the height difference. Anyone who knows boxing or watches Joshua fight, knows he struggles to be effect...

    He is seriously bad at boxing, but you’ve gotta admire the lad. How he’s got people believing that he’s a legit boxer, shows how dumb people are on the internet. He’s a marketing genius, even after that farce last night, the narrative remains...

    He wasn’t. You don’t need to be a boxing expert to see that Joshua was going at about 30% of his full capability. Joshua landed a lazy jab in the first round. Paul’s facial expressions changed straight away. You could literally see the fear on...

    He’s gassed from the first round.
