Boxing 2025

A fix you say?

I'm amazed one of the judges gave that 116-110.

Joshua v Paul in December now confirmed.

I hope Joshua flattens him very, very quickly indeed. I suspect, however, that he'll use it as sparring practice and to keep him ticking over and it will be a dull points result.

Even though I have Netflix I won't be watching that nonsense.

I wouldn't even contemplate it. I fucking hate it.

Can't see how this is anything other than disastrous for boxing.  There's no scenario where it doesn't come out badly

1 - Joshua toys with Paul as a warm up and people complain of being ripped off. 
2 - There is some kind of pre-ordained result and boxing essentially is reduced to a glorified version of WWE.
3 - Joshua takes it seriously and Paul ends up very badly hurt or worse.

And to make boxing even worse, Fabio Wardley has been named WBO world heavyweight champion.

Good grief.
