Soooooo many good fights Gerry, I would look at eras

Duran, Leonard, Haggler and Hearns, some belters here

Benn and Eubanks fights

Iron Mike, awesome!

Ali, some absolute classics, brutally long rounds and rope a dope with Foreman, what a fight!

Mayweather masterclass

Packman, what a performer he has been, the Della Hoya beating is a classic for me

Gatti and Ward is a classic

Right back, Lamotto, Robinson and more, all on the tube

Edit - off to watch. Ali and Foreman now

If AJ is going to win this he has to get Usyk out of there in 5 or 6 for me. Usyk is a completely different boxer to Ruiz so that pokey long jab he used in that rematch win to keep him off will not work in this one, Usyk can box! He has to blow Usyk out of there, put it on him, which could make it an interesting one otherwise he gets his ears boxed off again in the later rounds

If it goes passed 6 i wouldn’t be surprised if Usyk puts his lights out in 8, I remember he rocked him last time and felt he could have finished it and eased off. Could actually turn out to be a cracker for the fans

You make good sense I know, I have always put too much emphasis on size as the wife tells me regular lol. An angry busy aj in a 3 round fight would he win then?

I dont see AJ winning the rematch,he can't box.He has no movement,no defence and Usyk has too much for him in every department.AJ should use his size and power but let's not forget Usyk was the one that finished the first fight stronger and nearly finished AJ

'Am I saying some fights are fixed? Absolutely. If you ask for too much money, or if you're behaving like a primadonna, they'll have you bumped off. Judges can be indirectly influenced by nice hotel rooms, champagne, women, backhanders and the like. It goes on. However, fighters would do well to remember this: the politics is only an illusion put in place to hold you down. If you keep winning, you can still have your voice. An unbeaten record empowers. If you suspect that arrangements have been made against you, you will simply have to knock the man down before the end of round twelve.'

Hope if they do fight that Jack Knocks him all round the ring.

Tyler Denny v River Wilson Bent be great to see in a rematch as Tyler got absolutely skanked.

Edit - Just Googled Tyler and see that there is a rematch set for this Saturday 25th June. Going be an absolute belter for the English middleweight title.

Pascal beat Browne, how long has he been in the game! Other than that a spent Badu Jack. Not saying he is a bad fighter but at 37 years old, it’s now, great power but easily hittable what I have seen, against somebody like GGG he would be out of there in 5 for me. Bivol, boxes his ears off

But at 37, respect

I will go with what JC says, he ran out of ideas in that fight early doors and had nothing else to offer. Great performance that and robbery of the year sadly

He deserves another fight, absolutely

JOSH TAYLOR WAR OF WORDS REMATCH !!
'Because of all the stick and abuse I’ve been getting, and the way Jack’s been too, mouthing off and moaning, I just want to shut his mouth. The single reason I’m staying at the weight is to shut him and everyone else up.'

I wouldn’t say Gvozdyk or Marcus Browne were chumps. He gets hit, goes down but punches hard and knocks people out. Tough as nails.

Looks like Antony Yarde might get a shot with Beterbiev. Can’t say I’d fancy getting in the ring with him much but fair play to Yarde if he takes it. Bivol vs Berterbiev could be an absolute battle.

That could be a decent fight, although GGG has slowed right down in his recent fights. Actually think canelo will stop him and not sure he will carry on if that happens
