And he’s stood next to Eddie , who is typically saying “we’ll make him millions, fighting in Saudi, U.K., US, and he just turns around and says “that’s not what I want. I want to give back to Australia. I want to showcase my talents there and be a great for them. It’s not about the money.”
When asked about the IBF Stripping him , he just says “fucking leave me alone man, just let me fight.”
Fucking love his spirit!
he's entertaining as fuck as wellQuote:

Bit of a shake up from last yearQuote:

Bit of an Inoue fan club going on here ;D:cool:
Mine have really shaken up. The old mantra of "need/will" see them fight live has changed up a bit too. Aside from some spotty fight night streams the direct same time exposer is yet another ppv/app fee.
But Inoue is still there. Just have to wake up at 4am to tune in ;D
David Benavidez
Bam Rodriquez
Usyk
Tim Tszyu
Subriel Matias
Junto Nakatani
Fernando Daniel Martinez
Bud Crawford
Leigh Wood
That's over five :-X
Good call Garcia. Mere 20 yrs old and must see tv. One up there on the excitement meter each out. No idea if he burns like a candle at both ends or helps put 160 back on the championship map, but he's a very promising one-man wrecking crew.Quote:

Castano has slipped outside my top 5 until I see where he is when he returns.
Taylor has a chance to put on a better performance in the rematch with Catterall.
2023 could be the last year for both Usyk and Gonzalez.

Batyrgaziev will be fighting Jono Carroll on July 12th to become mandatory challenger for the Lamont Roach vs Feargal McCrory winner on June 28thQuote:
