Who's he fighting? Please let it be Stan Collymore. â˜ºï¸

Collymore wouldn't fight Rio he's the wrong gender for him.

On a serious note Rio is 38 years old, this isn't the kind of sport someone that age should be getting involved in with no prior experience.

Watching the Parker fury fight currently round 5,only one fighter trying to win it and that's parker

barnestormer · « **Reply #603 on:** September 23, 2017, 11:45:44 PM »

Parker for me deserved the decision, best I can say for fury is he's got a decent chin and if nothing else he's a slippery fcer

Not really a farce, takam is an harder opponent than pulev would of been due to his style etc.... do agree the division is poor though!

I bet that headbutt hurt AJS nose.

Premature stoppage that.

ref stopped that too soon for me,

Takam wasn't in any trouble at all from that flurry, most punches were just glances, could've been an interesting finish it looked like Joshua was blowing a bit

barnestormer · « **Reply #617 on:** October 28, 2017, 11:30:27 PM »

Was the ref on Joshua's wage bill? Disgraceful stoppage by the ref,Joshua is no 12 round fighter and wilder will take his head off,way overated one trick pony

but he's winning fights down the stretch which you never thought he was capable of, so maybe not so one trick ....no heavyweight champion looks good all the time.

Think that was a decent fight in the end. Can argue about the stoppage, but I think it was always going to end one way from there and the ref has done his job to protect. I think a less high profile fight and that gets stopped after the first doctor check after the cut to be honest

hes a very lucky boy to be around in such a very poor era for the HW division.little better than Bruno for me,i mean come on he was blowing like an old donkey 6 onwards

To be fair to him though, he's raised the interest and profile of boxing again which is always a good thing. And he can only fight what's there for him.

health and safety overrules everything.

takams eyes were rolling, the ref could clearly see he was in trouble.

Good call by the ref, would of been worse if he left it and it ended up a similar Eubank/blackwell situation.

TheJacko2000 · « **Reply #623 on:** October 29, 2017, 12:58:08 AM »

AJ would have put him down in that round but the ref still went early.

Takams eyes were rolling and legs were going... that's more than enough to stop a fight.

The ref asked way before that if the doctor wanted the fight stopped and he said no, any longer it could of been real dangerous for a human who don't know where he is, especially with the power AJ has.
