Fury v Ngannou Jesus Christ they've dragged this out, going to be a 6 hour show and so far about 1 hour boxing in total.
An open ceremony now before main event.........

GET ON WITH IT!!!!!!!!

Must admit I thought similar.

Thought the main agent was supposed to start at 10

It did but nobody expected the main event to consist of swapping arenas and a bunch of artists performing before the actual boxing

I get they wanna put a show on but come on we wanna see boxing.
Sick off seeing these 'legends' being portrayed as the paying public....they've been paid to go simple as that

It’s onTNT PPV courtesy of dodgy box.

I'm close to turning off

As a person of more senior years ,can anyone tell me what the F. K is going on?

If you want to see boxing, I’d suggest giving this whole nonsense a wide berth.

It's like pulling teeth, absolutely tedious this last two hours or so. Mind you the fight before it was decent enough

Bordeauxclaret · Post by **Bordeauxclaret** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 11:28 pm

A lot of proper boxing about but it’s being dwarfed by this comedy stuff.

At the moment I’m not sure how it comes back properly. Seems to be more money with the jokers.

bumba · Post by **bumba** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 11:31 pm

Even Michael Buffer seems bored and p1ss3d off

Yes a decent fight but it must of finished 2 hours ago now, people will lose interest

They were reckoning about a midnight kick off this morning on fivelive.
We'll see.

bumba · Post by **bumba** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 11:45 pm

Interesting to see Connor McGregor drinking ring side, is it not prohibited there?

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 11:48 pm

Bit of a porker these days, Fury.
Not that I'd say so to his face....

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 11:52 pm

Fury bleeding a bit.

CoolClaret · Post by **CoolClaret** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 11:53 pm

Doing well is Francis.

Looks very composed

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sat Oct 28, 2023 11:56 pm

Fury down and taking the count.
Looking in trouble.

THEWELLERNUT70 · Post by **THEWELLERNUT70** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:01 am

He's the heaviest he's been, perhaps Fury not trained like he should have done ?

He's been absolutely cr@p so far

He has, but give the other guy credit, Ngannou very good tonight.

THEWELLERNUT70 · Post by **THEWELLERNUT70** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:05 am

He has indeed

Commentary "one card has Ngannou up in all 5 rounds so far"

The only problem being there'd only been 4 rounds to that point

CoolClaret · Post by **CoolClaret** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:12 am

5-2 Francis to me

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:17 am

Fury bleeding even more now, not looking good for him.

Murger · Post by **Murger** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:18 am

Fury just looks fat.

CoolClaret · Post by **CoolClaret** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:21 am

Maybe he thought he could lean on Francis and tire him out before piecing him up?

Francis’ power and wrestling / clinch boxing skills too good.

Wrestling is the best martial art there is. Just is.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:26 am

Surely Fury been beaten here, major shock.
Awaiting the decision.

Florian · Post by **Florian** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:27 am

Draw or fury
Even 365 had fury winning at round 10 in play

Judges surely wont give it a non boxer

Spiral · Post by **Spiral** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:28 am

Officially sanctioned match, not just an exhibition, so counts towards professional records. Flabby b@stard no longer undefeated.

wilks_bfc · Post by **wilks_bfc** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:29 am

******** decision there

Spiral · Post by **Spiral** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:29 am

Joke decision

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:29 am

Absolutely ridiculous.
Bloody VAR again..,

Florian · Post by **Florian** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:30 am

BurnleyFC · Post by **BurnleyFC** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:30 am

Ngannou robbed.

Boxing with another joke decision. It does itself no favours.

Spiral · Post by **Spiral** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:30 am

People say prem refs are corrupt but they're actually not, they're just a bit useless at times. "Boxing" is though.

Vino blanco · Post by **Vino blanco** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:31 am

Was VAR involved in that decision?

THEWELLERNUT70 · Post by **THEWELLERNUT70** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:31 am

What a load of sh!t, so boxing isn't bent, it's a toss up between boxing and VAR at the moment,

Florian · Post by **Florian** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:32 am

Boxing looking after boxing there

A disgrace of a sport Boxing.

This is why people stream it now.

That’s a complete Farce

Spiral · Post by **Spiral** » Sun Oct 29, 2023 12:44 am

Never seen an arena empty out so much while the fighters are still in the ring doing the post-fight stuff. Suppose those fans were told they could clock out for the day when the scores were announced.

Impressed with Ngannou if that's him in his first fight he could go quite a way
