Anyway…I did catch this before Usyk. Hadribeaj got away with murder leading with his head and spoiling. Mess of a fight. Feel for Samake after QB pulled the rug out from under him but I’ve been saying it for ages, his ring IQ is shocking & that cost him as much anything tonight.

@Contrarian2025 At no point did I say it was a good stoppage

@LSdePiedra x.com/i/status/20583… Are you telling me this is what you saw in the fight to justify that stoppage? 👀

Usyk was on his way winning regardless but that was all very unbecoming of such a great fighter. We now have Turki talking rematches. He’s getting paid and he’ll piss it if they do fight again, but I’d like to take the end of his career seriously.

@Contrarian2025 Simply stating facts. But those scorecards (with one having Rico up btw) reflect reality more than say…Mike Coppingers. Usyk was at the VERY least in the fight with 3 more minutes to work against a spent Rico

@LSdePiedra The score cards were just as crap as the stoppage. Bro, didn't you have eyes of your own to see who is winning or do you need 3 twits with a scorecard to tell you. Usyk is a great boxer but even he knows in his heart he lost that one and got a premature ending.

@Contrarian2025 Plus a 10-8 in the 11th. Well on his way to winning 👍

@LSdePiedra Would've whatever. We don't know because we didn't get to see it due to premature ending whilst he was winning up until that moment.

@Contrarian2025 Would’ve went straight through him in the last round. Rico was done.

@LSdePiedra He was losing that fight. The stoppage was premature.

@RobTebbutt Now we’re talking. Real fight for Usyk and a juicy slot for Rico on the undercard, he deserves that much

Rico Verhoeven vs Francis Ngannou?

Usyk. Brother.

“This is menacing” Fuck off

Good for Jones. Gualtieri’s a certifiable big stiff idiot, was never going to be much of a contest, but I probably haven’t been as high on him as others and I thought it was a more polished performance and finish under a bit of pressure in his homecoming

Usyk fight is PPV? Remember when real people used to get on here and fawn over Turki apparently being a real hardcore boxing fan just trying to save the sport 🤢

🚨Update in this developing story surrounding Kameda Promotions Tsuyoshi Yasukochi, the Secretary General of the Japan Boxing Commission has stated that he will need confirmation on the status of Yabuki-Calixto in the "next day or two" and if the show is cancelled Koki Kameda's promoters licence will be suspended indefinitely. (Yahoo Japan) It looks like the next few days are crucial for the survival of Kameda Promotions.

@BoxerJoeGrim This is giving me Radiohead cover art

"The Rockford Sheik" Sammy Mandell suffered a setback in his quest for the world lightweight crown #OnThisDay in 1925 when he was DQ'd for a low blow on Jimmy Goodrich at Queensboro Stadium in Long Island City. Mandell was reportedly well on his way to victory in a scheduled 10-round title eliminator when he fouled Goodrich during a mix-up in his own corner in the sixth stanza and was disqualified after Goodrich crumpled in a heap and writhed in pain (pictured). The bout was one of a series aimed at finding a successor to Benny Leonard, who had vacated the title. Goodrich would go on to become world champion two months later but Mandell would have to wait until the following year before finally winning the crown.

Davis separated himself from Albright more this time around but I definitely don’t think this weekend represents progress after looking SO good against Ortiz. Crap fight, scrappy performance, maturity called into question again.

@roccoramzy Back to Southern Area level he goes

@LSdePiedra very disappointing from hatim, who had so much shit to say in the buildup lol

Interesting first few rounds. There wasn’t always a lot on O’Doherty’s shots early but he’s constantly peppering the guard, starts to mix in more and more power and ramps up the intensity until you can’t go with him and then everything is landing hard

@ATokkers5 Nice
