The **BOXING** thread (Vol 4)

[Chilly for June]

Yep they need to turn the fights around a bit quicker when it's getting to this time of night.

Also aren't they 2 hours ahead. If you haven't trained your body to be ready at this time of night you may struggle.

Hopefully Bivol will walk through this guy so we can get on with the last two

Bivol is brilliant, yet really frustrating.

Speed distance attack its all there

Dubois later on too so we can see the opposite

[carlo996]

Well, this is creepy

I’m struggling to ignore my hatred of Saudi and their sports washing. Half of them sat there on their phones, st atmosphere, just such a scummy host.

Hatred? Yet you are watching? Way to go man, what a backbone...

[Chicken Chaser]

This is far too late.

Dubois seems to be uninterested in what his trainer has to say.

He seems genuinely confused a lot of the time.

Everytime I've seen him interviewed he comes across as very immature.

What a slugfest this is. No attempts at defense, just trading blows. I expected Hrgović to outbox Dubois easily, I think Hrgović probably expected that too.

Thinking Dubois might just last longer, but you never know. I can't imagine what AJ would do to either of them!

I tend to agree -shots at distance....

God it's late though, not sure i cba with much more

[Pugaris]

Eddie low-key probably pretty happy if he now gets to sell AJ decapitating Dubois at Wembley

[ThisInJapanese]

Wow!!!

I didn't see that coming from Dubois. He should have been out on his feet in the first two rounds, but full credit to him, he was sensational tonight.

Shame he's going to get destroyed by AJ!

[biggbn]

What a performance. Come on guys, Hrgovic was the big favourite, the boxer etc...credit where its due, Danny just battered him!!

[Chicken Chaser]

Does Dubois ever show a defence? Good display of courage to get that one over the line.

[jules_s]

Respect to Dubois - took him apart there

A bored and lacklustre Hrgovic. A bigger puncher would have got Dubo out of there. Fair play to him, but he's not a great heavyweight tbh. Dubois seems to use his face as defence

Genuinely think that is a who lands first fight. Hrgovic has a hell of a chin.

[Mastodon2]

Well, I didn't see that coming. Hrgović looked awful, I just don't know what the game plan was. Did he think Dubois would tire and he could step on the gas and pull away?

I really didn't think Dubois looked good against Miller, he looked knackered, like he was fighting a heavy bag. He looked much better tonight but half of that I think was down to Hrgović playing straight into Dubois' hands.

Well done to Dubois. I think his lack of defence will make AJ a very tough fight for him, if that's where he is going next, but he has surprised me tonight. Maybe I'm more surprised by Hrgović, though.
