Well that was a sad sate of affairs.

I understand its a come back fight but basically the biggest HW in the game just fought a Cruiser weight.

............. who may I add after Tyson stopped making a fool out of himself clowning around for Rd1 and actually remembered it was a boxing match, his opponent quit in the corner.

I really hope Deontay knocks this guys head clean off if I'm honest, I don't like him one bit, even though I appreciate his awkwardness and he uses his size with his skills well, I don't like all the loud mouthing and fake ass Connor Mcgregor tactics, its embarrassing.

Tbf Fury was acting like this before anyone knew who McGregor was.

Didn't like it then either.

That first round literally looked like Fury was about to have a mental breakdown from the pressure of his come back fight.

I didn't sign up to watch that.

Then he spent half the 2nd round watching a punch up in the stands and expected his opponent to wait for him, all in all very unprofessional.

I was fully on the "Fury will reclaim his throne" train but he is finished.

He is just out of shape, the footwork is still there, he is still awkward, he still has an impeccable judge of distance, you don't lose technical skills like that when you been boxing since you can walk.

If he still has an engine he will be the same

:rofll:

I actually think he'll give static AJ trouble though, not even sure if AJ would win? Wilder I think would toast him and I hope he does.

That guy was a Cruiserweight and had the towel in his hand before he even got in the ring, he was there to prance around and get paid, he was not there for a fight.

I hear on the grapevine that the brawl in the crowd erupted because people could just not see any other way to get their monies worth, so they just started beating each other up.
