    He’ll end up flooring a few more people before he gets battered I reckon. End of the day he is a multi millionaire who will have been in training with some of the best coaches around for the last 2 years as he can afford it and has nothing else to do.

    He’s probably better than quite a few boxers who have made their pro debut because of this, apparently it’s Conor McGregor next

    When he gets in the ring with an actual boxer, as opposed to a fellow YouTuber, a retried basketball player and a fat ex wrestler, I might actually watch.

    As I really want to see this sex pest shyster sparked out.

    If he continues to pick MMA fighters to box, then perhaps he stands a good chance. To me there’s something bigger brewing behind this, don’t be surprised to see these brothers head up something huge in the future, a new hybrid sport which delivers knockout after knockout in the boxing ring, and captures the minds of the boxing causal far more than real boxing does.

    DAZN is currently £1.99 per month. It can't stay like that, surely?

    They had to lower the price to get interest in it, EH is locked into a contract that he will struggle to deliver because he fundamentally assumed wrongly that the majority of boxing fans are not casual fans who ain’t interested in monthly fees.

    Two bills of note to UK fans this weekend, one of which isn't on these shores.
    The first sees a few travel over to Barcelona with a couple of European belts on the line on DAZN on Friday: https://boxrec.com/en/event/827864
    The second is on Saturday on BT and has been hyped more: https://boxrec.com/en/event/830079
    Not sure if I'll bother with either, but we'll see.

    He’s had a Weston there imo. He was bossing it with his Sky bills and PPV events and he’s now moved to a website streaming service that no ****er has heard of?

    Don’t get it, if I can’t watch it via a platform that enables me to see it buffer free and in true HD on my TV, then he’s **** it for my money, as I ain’t watching **** all on a laptop or iPad.

    You can watch DAZN on a TV.

    I reckon that’d be beyond my technical ability, if I can’t just turn it on or there’s an app already loaded, then I’m in the cba category.

    Have you got an Amazon fire stick, a console or a smart TV? They'd do, apparently.
    I haven't signed up for it, so I'm going by what I'm told and what I've read.

    What a load of **** that was. David Adelaye is clearly being set up for bigger things, but he lost that fight badly.
    Getting done by a gatekeeper that early in your career shouldn't be a showstopper, but they bought that 0 pretty clearly.
    Sokolowski's lost to Whyte, Price, Gorman, Tom Little, Lucas Browne, Gorman, Gary Cornish (x2) and failing to trouble him is embarrassing.

    No idea who these ****s are but the fight I’ve just flicked on on BT seems decent.

    He looked dogshit to me, nothing but some roided up banger who can’t box. He defo lost that fight.

    Thought Johnson was very impressive on his return, as that guy was no mug. Cash showed he’s at least one level above Bentley who peaked when he unexpectedly won the British title imo.

    BT with the ****ing spoilers in their clip titles. <grr>



    Only highlights of the robbery, but the comments tell it how it is. Even that makes it look like he should've lost, though.

    There's a couple of televised UK bills this weekend, then nothing for a while.
    Friday has a York Hall bill on BT with a few potentially interesting fights on it: https://boxrec.com/en/event/830904
    Saturday has the Sky pay-per-view from Manchester that nobody's going to pay for: https://boxrec.com/en/event/830522

    Chisora v Parker could be worth a watch. Nothing there that suggests PPV, though.

    Eddie can **** off, he’s upset me, so I ain’t paying for that card.

    6ft 2” and 200lbs vs 5ft 8” and 150lbs.....

    I’d have preferred it if he got in with Chisora or even David Price lol.
