Alex 30258 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I think it's been prevalent in football ever since 'pressing' became a thing, so pretty much since the 70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19746 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 That knockout of price was absolutely savage. He’s out on his feet and basically takes a free punch to send him to the deck, and who knows, maybe some brain damage. Could the red have stepped in at that point before the final blow? Brutal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13817 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 It was horrible to watch mind, the first hit seemed to stun him & he didn't see the final hit coming at all. It's a shame because he gave a good account of himself and the fight was close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26192 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 He had to go all out while the Russian’s legs looked fucked but I don’t think he had the energy to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 26192 Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 I’ve complained about Joshua being a flat track bully before and relying on power and having no boxing brain but that was a dull controlled performance tonight. Basically there’s no pleasing me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 19746 Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Lennox Lewis esque tonight with his jab. Took care of business tbf and why not box clever when you’re setting up a unification bout? Dull viewing mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 30258 Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Plus despite the pre-match patter Parker didn’t come to fight and it was basically just damage limitation. He had some limited success in the early rounds but even then you could argue he was awarded rounds just due to performing relatively better rather than actually doing enough to win them. Thought Joshua’s fitness was really impressive as he came on strong and won the last few rounds for me, ie when you thought Parker might have showed superior fitness. Dull fight but so one sided you have to commend Joshua Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26192 Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I think Parker’s only hope was to get in close to Joshua but he showed no willingness to do it in the early rounds and couldn’t find his range. And when he did try to make a fight of it the referee kept stepping in and stopping it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 5890 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 So Connor McGregor just ended his UFC career. He was stripped of his belt today so has stormed the press conference for this weekends event with his goon friends. They’ve smashed the place up, injured one of the fighters and there’s now a warrant out for his arrest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26192 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Normally I’d say it’s a PR stunt but he’s such a twat that it’s probably genuine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 26192 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 If I were to get far fetched I would say that if McGregor were to get in the octagon with Mayweather then the best way to do it would be for him to get out of his UFC contract and they could put the fight on themselves for maximum returns.

ewerk 26192 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Saying that, he’s now been arrested. It doesn’t take much to get barred from the US. Trumped up charges over this could mean he never fights there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 5890 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 UFC have pulled 3 of the fights off this weekends card due to minor injuries as a result of last night Theyre probably going to sue McGregor for every penny he’s ever made of them. I bet his arse is twitching now he’s realised what a fuck up he’s made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 FairPlay to Degale who bounced straight back and regained his title, he done well considering the cut he had above his eye, a bit of a mess. Good win for Hurd aswell, sets up a tasty fight with Jermell Charlo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 30258 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 According to Lennox Lewis on Twitter: Quote So I’m hearing that @FloydMayweather and @TheNotoriousMMA will fight again in the octagon with modified rules! No kicks, no knees, no elbows, no takedowns? But isn’t this just Boxing in the octagon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
