A draw, I understand (even tho I feel Fury won by a 2 or 3 rds). With 2 knockdowns & round here or there for Wilder and you have a draw in some people’s eyes. But 115-111 for Wilder is terrible, just terrible !! That’s what’s wrong with boxing. Fury’s stock went up !!!!!.

Trainer Mark Breland cared more about Deontay Wilder the person, then he did Deontay Wilder the bussiness. He showed compassion. He is also the most qualified person in that corner to make that decision. He’s been there and done that. What’s popular is not always what’s right.

This is one the coldest exchanges I’ve ever heard/seen at a face off ! Deep respect, but they both are going to try to hurt each other tomorrow night. You can see it in their eyes. The wait is over !.

Eddie Hearn: "As fans, we should be calling for Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte. Imagine the build-up, imagine the fight. It does well over a million PPV buys, sells out a stadium. That is the fight. The winner fights the winner of Oleksandr Usyk vs Anthony Joshua II." [@IFLTV]

Congrats to Anthony Joshua for mentally bouncing back and fighting a controlled disciplined fight. The style of boxing “they” say no one wants to see, seems to always be the answer in the end. Hit and don’t get hit !.

Andy Ruiz blew a big opportunity in the Middle East. He said he would die in the ring to keep his belts. It didn’t take all of that, it just took the discipline and courage to push the plate back and deny himself, to put himself in the best position to win. He couldn’t do it.

Don’t think a rematch will ever happen. Wilder probably won’t want to go through that again. Will take the draw and move on & Fury doesn’t really have to !! Even a draw was a win for him last night the way he performed. Fury v Joshua at Wembley in the summer !!.
RUN. IT. BACK. Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder's fight results in a draw.

A trainers #1 job is to do everything in their power to make sure their fighter makes it home to their family. Everything else comes secondary. Including winning. We don’t want anymore 10 counts. A fighter may want to go out on their shield, but a good coach won’t let them.

Lennox Lewis has always been gracious to me. He’s always been a phone call away, and has helped me with boxing and business in more ways than ppl would ever know. He is one who paved the way. He will always have my respect. I stand on this. #Respect.

You have to respect Kell Brook. He’s come up short some his biggest fights (outside of Porter) but he’s got the heart of a Lion. Fearless. Respect Champion.

Anthony Yarde was 2-3 punches away from stopping Kov. Yarde can fight, just needs to make adjustments with his camp. Respect to him. Kov proved he’s still got something left, but he needs to grab that Canelo $$$, then✌🏽. At this point every fight will be hard for him.

I know Ben didn’t start as Tyson Fury’s Coach. That credit goes to his father/uncle etc. I’m talking recent years. Ben has a lot to do with Tyson overcoming his personal issues, to help resurrect his life/career.

Fury can do whatever he wants to do at this point. He doesn’t need any other fighter. If chooses to fight a few more years or take a few more fights and walk. It’s totally up to him. One thing you can’t argue, is there are not many real challenges left.

The first day I walked in the gym, my Dad asked Virg, “Can you teach my son how to hit and not get hit?” Virg said, “That’s my specialty” After my father died, Coach stayed true to the promise he made my father. Now that I’m retired, I so thankful he did. Life after boxing 🙏🏽.

BAD HABITS (Outside The Ring For Any Fighter 1-10) . 1). Putting drugs or alcohol in your system.2). Gaining 20-30lbs in between fights. 3). Only training when you have a fight coming up. 4). Believing your own HYPE (There is always more work to do). 5). Loving the Night Life. .

Two Things:. 1). I don’t believe Joshua quit. At the end of the fight he was hurt badly, dazed and a bit confused, but I don’t believe he made a conscience decision to quit. 2). Andy Ruiz has just as many questions to answer tomorrow as Anthony Joshua. Believe that.

I didn’t mentioned Tyson Fury’s trainer, Sugar Hill Steward enough Saturday night. This man deserves a lot of credit. He built on the foundation of Ben Davison. He cast the vision, drew up the game plan & inspired Fury to believe. He’s more than a coach, he’s a great teacher.

Say what you want about Devin Haney, but he’s always working. I don’t see him ballooning up in weigh in between fights. I don’t know about his personal life, but what I see and hear, he’s a full time fighter. That’s going to make him hard to beat.

One of the biggest changes we can bring in the sport of boxing is the weight-in process. Either go back to same day weight-ins, or allow IV’s to be administered in every state leaglly. Lack of fluid around the brain increases the risk of a brain bleed.

Few things. Let me teach. You got fights on YouTube too 👀. Too muscle bound. You throw every punch hard. You fall over your feet when you shoot your right hand & will get countered. Your conditioning is bad. One of your opponents had 208 loses😳. Enjoy ya day young fella 😁.
I wish I was joking. Seen a few of your fights and I see so many ways to beat you. But it will be best if you stay retired wouldn’t want to ruin your legacy.

At a certain point in big fights it’s no longer about skill, talent or game planning. it’s about your lifestyles. Yea, from the 7th round on, it has now turned into a LIFESTYLE fight !! What are you doing or not outside the ring ?? That will be on display.
