Quote from: dave.woodhall on October 11, 2021, 11:42:52 AMAt his peak Tyson destroyed fighters like no other boxer I can recall, although even then there were signs that if you didn't go down he struggled for ideas. The way Bonecrusher Smith went the distance with little worry showed his limitations. His greatest asset was his finishing power. There have been bigger hitters, but few who could land so many devastating punches so quickly which is why I think he'd have taken out Fury. Smith just held on for the entire fight if I remember it correctly.

Very impressive from Savannah Marshall tonight, her next fight against American Claressa Shields 11 December in Birmingham, should be good.
Flicking back and forth between boxing and snooker. Prizefighter was great for running books on Betfair, so I watched all of them (bet there aren't many in that camp) and iirc made a profit on all but one. No market up for this on Betfair today
Was he praising Steven Gerrard?
