Boxing 2025

I thought that the ref stepped early, but it was a great fight. Wardley was probably slightly behind on points at the time but he has a great punch as well as being able to take a punch.

The press are saying Usky could be Wardley's next fight, not sure if he's yet ready for that.

Usyk will be fine, mate

Interest listening to Spencer Oliver on radio at lunchtime and he made a point about there not being a standing 8 count available anymore and that fight would have been the perfect one where the standing count would have been used

[dave.woodhall]

I'm not sure about that - if you cant defend yourself it should be stopped, but elsewhere someone said that boxers don't take a knee anymore. If Parker had done that and got himself a few seconds to recover and get off the ropes, things might have been very different.

[Villa Lew]

Parker has failed a drugs test after traces of cocaine were discovered in a test on the day of the fight against Wardley.

And will anyone be watching tonight's events?

[Gareth]

Of course Dave, 90 mins of McGinn then onto Eubank v Benn…cynic in me says Benn wins to set up Hearn & co’s bank account with the trilogy fight next summer

[dave.woodhall]

For some reason I fancy Benn this time. The rest of the day's certainly been better than when they first fought.

[Gareth]

That is true :-) bloody Palace

[dave.woodhall]

Watch the Caterall-Esumann fight, but not if you're squeamish.

[manic-road]

Looked like father time has caught up with Eubank Jr, looked sluggish from round one.

[cdbearsfan]

That was so one-sided, struggle to see the point of a third meeting.

There's no way Eubank will fight again.

[Gareth]

Best performance at Spurs since we won there the other week.

Surely the last of Eubank Jr, was so one sided
