I could listen to Richie Woodall all day, talks so much sense and gives a good insight to the game. If AJ allows Dubois into the contest then he will be in serious trouble.
Rumours that Dubois fired his coach & hurt his hand :o
Crazy if true :lickish:
Joshua vs Dubois: Chris Eubank Jr says 'AJ' could beat Tyson Fury and any other heavyweight in the world - BBC Sport
Eubank Jr. Legend! ;DQuote:
I have known Joshua for years and have been to so many of his fights. We have always stayed in touch.Our journeys have been slightly different but we both faced pressure early in our careers.
I can relate to what he has gone through and you tend to gravitate towards guys who are on that same level.
Spencer Oliver on Talk Sport says Dubois trainer, Don Charles, has the flu and is staying away until fight night where he will be in his corner.Quote:

And Spencer Fearon said that it’s because of Dubois’ Dad. His words, “Daniel is a lovely guy, but his Dad is a scumbag!”Quote:

Mind you, Spencer Fearon is a twat. Imagine how he’s gonna feel if Don Charles does have Flu and is there on the night! ;D;D
I am going to be out and will miss it live. I expect AJ to be just too intense, together and brutal for Dubois. His combinations will overwhelm him. Joshua is not an artist like Usyk but he is solid with the fundamentals and will take away Dubois' will and with it his feet from under him. KO mid rounds. Hopefully catch a replay on 'All the Fights' or something if i can stay away from the result before watching it.
Forgot about the early start for the card. Looks like workday will be a half day and closed :vanish: yet again. We get sucked into hype sometimes but all I see is total chaos by two legitimate bricklayers in this fight early. In a great way!
I've paid little attention to this up to now. Was working down London today even and walked through Trafalgar Square late morning seeing a stage being set up. Had no idea what it was for till I saw weigh in on news just now.
And when the hell did Dubois get elevated to ibf champion?!
Dubois doesn't look confident to me and Joshua could do him early. That's my prediction joshua in 3. Out tomorrow so will just watch Sunday morning on YouTube. Wonder who still pays these days....
anthony joshua: 252.5
daniel dubios: 248.6
tyler denny: 159.9
hamzah sheeraz: 159.6
joshua buatsi: 174.7l
willy hutchinson: 174.9
anthony cacace: 129.8
josh warrington: 129.5
josh kelly: 159.1
ishmael davis: 159.3
mark chamberlain: 139.4
josh padley: 139.6
Career heaviest for Dubois :o
Following a previous career high against Hrgovic :-\
Not sure if that's the smartest approach :confused:
I don't think the weight will be a factor in the contest.Quote:

This will be an exciting event, can't wait.
Anyone watching this? Just walked in. Holy cripes look at all of the empty seats in that arena ???. Will fill out surely. I guess Turki gave up dressing like a normal civilian outside of his kingdom huh :-X
Buatsi beginning to do a number on Hutchinson who is flirting with a point deduct in 7th. Well they took one.
Crawford is an outstanding fighter, but someone needs to really light a fire under him for interviews ;D. Hutchinson coming on strong early 9th. Buatsi getting some back in the final minute.
And down he goes Hutchinson from left to pit of the gut. Up but woozy
Hutchinson is deceptive and tough but Buatsi knocks him down with a body shot in the 9th.
Hutchinson will go for the knock out and leave himself open to get stopped with 2 rounds remaining.
Buatsi doesn't look to have much of a gas tank. He just has these gaps where he shuts down. Hutchinson is a tough dude but in a massive hole after 2 kds and losing a point but has a decent 11th.
Spli decision win Buatsi!
113-112 judge needs to be investigated and have their car keys taken away :p.
Stadium looks empty. Fury and Crawford in the crowd.
Tyler Denny v Hamzah Sheeraz on next.
Denny survives a knock down in the first round
6ft 3 Middleweight. Can go all the way up to Heavy if successful.
Denny stopped in the second round. That was an anti climax.
UK crowd pops harder for some blond and McGregors short-bus riding arse than it does for Nigel Benn :dunce:. TF is happening to our sport :vd:
They are going to talk crap and show Z list celebrities for an hour to fill the time.Quote:

Got ages to wait yet.
Liam is rubbish and that music is just noise. Who pays for this?
What the feck are we watching here :-X.
Celebrity has always been a part of the sport but this theatrical stuff is on steroids. Not to mention the hero worship. At least they didn't have to play the Saudi anthem for him. YetQuote:

AJ looks real tight and skittish.
Why did Joshua come out second if he’s the challenger?
:o
