Off Topic Boxing

Excuse my ignorance but why has it been made? Bruno caught him in round 1 and then gets battered. I wasnt aware of anything special to the story.

 

I definitely need to watch it, two absolute characters with their own problems outside of the ring. I'm not a massive boxing fan now but back then with those two, lennox lewis, eubank, benn, prince naseem etc it was a great sport to watch.

 

No idea if I'm honest

 

Like I said I need to watch the whole thing, I'm expert on boxing, but love the big fights, especially in the era you mention

 

It seemed like a massive title fight every week way back then.

 

The first Bruno Tyson fight was great, the second was a pay day. Sad but looking back you can see it

 

Well I'm really enjoying it, I think you missed the point of the documentary.

 

I haven't seen it yet chief.

 

I enjoyed the doc, but the Tyson/Bruno meet up....that should have been the pinnacle...it felt like neither were interested...was odd or very badly edited. Maybe it caught Tyson on a bad day when they filmed. You'd think there would have been so much more from the meeting than they showed. I don't know...strange. I mean these guys knew each other when Tyson was 15...both knew Cus. Bit of a let down.

 

Jesus. Yildrim didn't even attempt to win. Not even a power punch thrown. Pathetic.

Canelo Vs BJS is a better contest.

 

Just watching the Bruno Tyson documentary. It's pretty poor film making held together by a couple of great characters.

****ing love Bruno. Despise Lewis for what he said to him. Tyson was just two classes above Bruno.

 

Anyone watching the boxing tonight? This lad Okolie looks explosive.

 

Very good performance from him tonight.
In the past been quite untidy obviously can hit as he’s shown tonight.
Will have a big future

 

What do people think of Dillian Whyte? I like him personally. I know he's a bit of a dick but he seems a genuine bloke and his fights are never boring.

 

That was Okolie's best performance. Was punch perfect. Jab was great, controlled the distance and killer right hand.

Much better under new trainer.

 

Good fighter but probably stuck in between the domestic level and championship level
Too good for domestic but not good enough for the top level
Like you say his fights are never boring so always good for entertainment

 

This one should be good.

 

thought you'd binned the smb off

 

Did for ages. Got an apology and post very infrequently now. Just some of the threads that have increased traffic.

 

bit like Bristow however much **** they give you can't stay away
