This is a boxing thread chaps, can we keep it that way?

First time he left himself open all fight, he was 3 possibly 4 rounds up at that point. Don't think he'll ask for a rematch 🤔

I don't think Khan chased the money, I think he craves being accepted as world class, justify his existence, and that back fired last night. Still all credit to him for taking the fight, he's gone up in my estimations for that.

Crolla had a game plan and executed it, they thought he'd come and hit him with everything he had for 5 rounds, which he did, then fade, which he did badly, worked to a treat. Khan deserves nothing but credit for taking that fight, earned my respect for sure. Khan was winning that fight on points, just a lack of concentration for a moment and all over. Great to hear Khans trainer telling Alvarez to stop hiding and fight Golovkin, he's right that Khan didn't hide, he took the Alvarez fight, maybe he should do the same.

Its Chisora all over, gets him up for fights. He's on sky now getting beaten by a Pulev from Sofia, he need a knockout now to win. Anthony Crolla next, got to love this lad after the burglary incident, seems to have captured the publics imagination also looking at the arena.

Strange night of boxing I thought: Degale could have kept Medina on the end of his jab all night long, but clearly he wanted to put on a show and it just never happened for him. He said several times after the fight that he couldn't believe how Medina kept coming forward, as watching his tapes he'd never done that before, was he accusing the Mexican of taking something? Still he got the job done without looking anything special. As for Jack V Bute, it was never a draw, Jack won the fight, but was blowing hard from round 8 against a much older opponent who took the fight at late notice I think? no excuse for that. I think DeGale will see him off, nothing special either of them but Degale to win that. Khan to MMA? he's hinting at giving it a go, has a stake in the sport already financially, not sure why he'd go down that route, maybe its to ruffle a few feathers in boxing and get a few things moving, who knows.

Just seen the press conference between Fury and Vlad, Vlad told Fury to f*** Off, never heard him swear before, ever, could be rattled already! Also just realised Khan V Alvarez is on Box nation, will have to look into getting that. James DeGale on Sky1 tonight at 2am, going to record it, he's fighting Mexican Rogelio 'Porky' Medina in Washington. Degale is already looking towards September for a fight with Badou Jack, hopefully in London but he needs to get past this Mexican first.

Great to see you back on the thread OJW, we may disagree on Fury, but I find your insights fascinating, you're clearly more than just a casual boxing fan like myself. I think I heard Bunce claiming Saunders had been offered around £1m to fight Golovkin, an astonishing amount of money at this stage of Saunders career, surely he'd take the cash if that was right. As for Khan v Alvarez, really looking forward to this one. Khan deserves plenty of respect for taking this fight when he could have taken easier options. It'll be interesting to see if he loses some of that speed with the change in weight. Interesting fight.

Dominic Wade V Gennady Golovkin at the weekend, bit of a miss match, Golovkin should win inside 4 rounds. Golovkins after Saul Alvarez, so it'll be interesting to see if Khan upsets that apple cart.
