Boxing


It definitely a gimmick and I find it all a bit distasteful, I’m hoping AJ has some pride in himself and the sport that’s made him insanely rich and dispatches Paul in double quick time
Same, mate. Can understand if he dosnt though. He might aswell pick up every penny on the table, there will definitely be a ‘special bonus’ for going the distance. It will be more scripted than WWE
 


They already have to cut down to a weight joshua is just anything he wants so to lose 5lbs probably be as simple as dieting for a couple weeks
All he'd have to do is lose water in his body the day or 2 before and rehydrate after the weigh in. It's not unusual for boxers to put on a couple of stone between the weigh in and ring walk. Bellew said the most he put on in this period was 18 lbs when he was at LHW
 
It’s potentially a very dangerous show too. Jake Paul lost to bloody Tommy Fury. AJ could legitimately kill him or cause serious injury if the fight is clean. Boxing is dodgy enough though, even more so with these sideshows.
They sanctioned the 57 year old Mike Tyson - who himself said he was at deaths door only months earlier, this was signed before the ink was dry on the contract

The fixers wont want that dear boy... its probably more embarassing than that charade of benn and eubank t'other night... utter nonsense this

Its as bad as the wrestling back in the early 80s.. mrs crabtree and whatnot

To be fair, I was only joking about it because of the outrage of people regarding the weight been set at 245lbs for Joshua.

Also to be fair, fair play to Jake Paul for not ducking Joshua unlike Wilder and Fury.
