Conor McLoser coming up next.

I googled the result because I was wondering all week why a you tuber was a favourite against a pro boxer.

Then I see it was an 8 round fight. They wanted 30 euro for this. And people paid it.

People are fucking idiots. Tomorrow I'm going to shit between two slices of bread and call it a steak sandwich.

That Mayweather/McTapper farce proved that people will get suckered into buying any old shit.

It's aimed at the American sports market and they buy all the hype and shite.

Unbelievable night. Fury taking it after a slug fest.

I don't think Tommy's heart is in boxing. He's unconvincingly beat a few nobodies over the years and has not been very active at all. The Fury family have Tommy under all sorts of pressure, with his aul fella a total and utter embarrassment and limelight hogger.

Jake Paul hasn't got much technique but I think he has more heart and stamina and is the likelier winner imho.

If Tommy loses, I doubt he'll ever fight again.

Nail on head. There was probably 2 occasions in the the fight where he should have really put it on JP and he didn’t have the stomach for it.

Badoo Jack landed some punch there to drop Makubu, but Makubu still well on top I'd say.

Edit..
Another knockdown from Jack in the 11th
Stopped in the 12, some finish from Jack to win, good stoppage by the ref

That was a good dust up in fairness. And to think these 2 lads were the warm up for the main event is a joke. Canelo v Jack watch this space.

How is there a belt on the line? When that happen?

Franchise BS belt. What’s galling is that the wbc scum ranked the winner. Mauricio Sulaiman is a crook. He’s been in many photos with DK. Obviously taking plenty of backhanders including for this fight.

Why are people buying into this celebrity mma/boxing money making shite.

Because the celebrities have huge fan base and it’s their fans buying into it.

I watched it for free, wouldn't dream of paying for it. It was a Sunday evening and and there wasn't much else going on. The fight confirmed to me that the two of them are every bit as bad as I thought they were at boxing.
