    I think he's got an outside chance but on the whole no. I think he'll lose and I think he'll be stopped mid rounds.

    Wait, you think that I think you care about me? :laugh::laugh:

    Christ, you really do have such an inflated ego.

    I am just calling you out on your arrogant bullshit aimed at another poster and guess what? It's a public forum so as long as I stay within the rules I can comment on whatever the f*ck I want. Cry more.

    Well, I'm obviously saying I don't care about what you think about me.

    Yeah, I've never said you can't. Yet, you seem to think you can tell me what I'm allowed to comment on. For some reason I'm not surprised that you're too thick to see your own hypocrisy on the matter.

    "Cry more" :laugh: Well if that doesn't just sum up your personality then I don't know what does.

    I'm not saying you can' comment, I'm calling you out on the manner in which you have done which is that of an egotistical, arrogant bellend. Keep crying.

    Yet you didn't have a problem saying to me, indirectly to someone else, that you wouldn't be listening to what I had to say.

    Sorry if the manner I decided to tell someone I wouldn't listen to them upset you, Shane.

    You responded to me regarding something that annoyed you. It was not the other way around. Happy to clarify that for you.

    Artur Beterbiev will KO Anthony Yarde in Round 8

    Moses Itauma will win inside 6 rounds.

    Frankham brothers will win their fights.

    And ACDC are in my Top 5 bands of ALL time list.

    Let There Be Rock (What a banging tune) The riff is very addictive.

    he’ll be gassing if it gets mid rounds. He isn’t gonna push beterbiev back and being constantly pressured is exhausting! I think yarde is under rated but I give him about 5% chance if the upset. He better hope beterbiev has gotten old since his last fight. He is old but it looks like he’s getting better still!

    It looks like he caught him with his left elbow as eubank rolled under a left hook. It caught him on the follow through. Certainly not intentional and it’s embarrassing that they are trying to get it over turned. It’s just one of those things that happens in boxing!

    if he wants the rematch there’s a clause as far as I’m aware. He should just take his loss like a big boy and activate the rematch clause, where he has the chance to put this result right.

    Wilder was asked who he thinks would win in a fight between Fury and Usyk. He replied 'whoever cheats the most'

    What a bitter bellend :laugh::laugh:

    Not much hope ,the only chance Yarde has is to box wisely and pick him off and then move ,any thought of standing toe to toe trading blows and there will only be one winner in that battle.

    the problem yardes got is beterbiev is a better boxer with far more experience. He’s gonna put yarde under constant pressure and he’ll start to wilt mid fight. I think a fire fight is his only chance. He needs to catch beterbiev early

    He certainly needs to be smart and not openly trade shots. Callum Johnson gave that a good go but he never really hurt beterbiev badly. Smith triesd that in the last fight, and is more mobile than Johnson, but he got destroyed in 2 rounds. I still think this is an easier fight than bivol. The problem everyones got is The champions in this division are p4pers and future atgs. That’s a problem for callum smith as well, who is a tremendous fighter but can he beat 1 of those 2? Would love to see him in with beterbiev after this one

    I don't rate Yarde very highly in terms of being a contender at the top level.

    I can see this being over in the third round in favour of Beterbiev.

    i do think yarde is a little under rated but the challenge looks almost insurmountable. Experience is the real issue, yarde is a relative novice compared to beterbiev. Speed and athleticism are his only advantages. At the moment it looks like the only guys that can beat the 2 champs are themselves.

    Jake Paul finally getting ko’d. If Fury loses that then his boxing career is done and dusted.

    Can’t see Fury taking dive money tbh. His dad wouldn’t allow it. The family wouldn’t allow it.

    Well, money talks.

    You've got a Clown with no Boxing pedigree at all who's Boxing but has millions of followers as an influencer on Social Media. Boxing promoter obviously all over that.

    Or the fight gets cancelled again and never happens.

    He’s getting a lot of money from this fight anyway. Honestly of all the family’s in boxing I’d say the fury’s are the least likely to take bribe money to lose. Just can’t see it.

    Oh I know. No doubt he's getting paid. Tyson and Hughie seem to me they wouldn't but Tommy, I'm not too sure. He's different to them.

    In a strange world, Jake is the cash cow right now. Obviously not because of his Boxing.
