Boxing: All boxing discussion

[Alex Jones]

Ruiz is heavier than in his last fight, that's bad news, especially since his camp was talking about coming in lighter

Do you guys think it's worth it to get a DAZN subscription for one month ($20) and then just cancel it? Debating just doing that, but wonder if you guys think there will be some decent streams out for this one.

 

[Alex Jones]

Obviously it depends on how much boxing you want to watch, but i think that getting the yearly sub is worth it. There are good fights on Dazn every month.

I would guess you could find good streams.

Who's ready for the Snickers man to put Joshua to sleep with his nougat powered right hand?

It's worth it for sure. There's usually good streams available but you avoid a headache in case there's no quality ones available at the time of the fight.

Yea to be honest, I agree. It's actually pretty cheap and if you can unsubscribe without any issue/fee, then hell yea.

Hopefully my Joshua bet can pay for it!

Anyone interested in David Lemieux' fight tonight. Well, the whole fighting match-ups at the Bell Center. (I rarely watch boxing but it caught my attention, Like Bute and Pascal used to).

 

[Basement Cat]

What's everyone's predictions on Ruiz/Joshua? I see a tight contest with AJ trying to keep a distance which eventually goes in his favor with a UD victory.

 

[Basement Cat]

Lots of buffering for the undercards On DAZN. Hope the main event is bearable

Worried about Ruiz, especially if since he's heavier, taking AJ within 5

 

[Alex Jones]

Ruiz showed nothing. He's not bad when a guy stands and trades, but the total lack of foot speed kills him.

 

[member 51464]

Ruiz just seemed so cliche in how he handled the unexpected success last time out. Came in fatter, and had nothing for Joshua.

 

[Basement Cat]

Any future Ruiz preparation needs to involve cutting off the ring. His hands are quick as f*** but it don’t matter if someone fights like AJ did tonight and boxes his ass off. Fury would eat him alive.
Funny enough, I think that Ruiz would have a better shot against Wilder than AJ does.

 

[Fire Sweeney]

Ruiz showed up as a complete fatass and deserved to lose.

 

[quickeyg]

Let the games begin once again fight fans. The build up and fight will be EPIC. Dudes be prepared get that extra EXTRA food & drink for the grand occasion - invite ya friends, family & neighbours

Deontay Wilder vs Tyson Fury 2
TV Sat - Fox PPV (USA)

 

[kihei]

I wonder if this German has a lucky punch in him. He has lost every round, is slow, and has no answer for Plant's reach advantage. But he's not going away. Poor SOB is going to be sore in the morning.

Ref finally mercifully calls a halt.

 

[John Price]

 

[Basement Cat]

Fury won the first fight. I’d be surprised if Wilder doesn’t win this one. Either he gets his man like he usually does or that eye opens up and is a game changer.

Fury is 17 pounds heavier than the first fight, and much heavier than his last fight. Wilder was also 17 pounds heavier than their first bout. I don't think this bodes well for Fury. You don't add quality weight in that short an amount of time. It's not gonna make a noticeable difference in power but it almost certainly will in speed, and I'm afraid that'll be his doom.

 

[AllAbout813]

This is gonna be a big fight. Good for the sport. A lot of eyes on this one so I hope both guys bring it tonight.

 

[Fire Sweeney]

Fury just pissed away his career by pulling off a Ruiz. He will get wrecked.

Yeah, what brought me to boxing was the heavyweight division.
No offense to the other weight classes but you got the biggest of the names in boxing at that time.

 

[Bakayoko Ono]

What time can the main fight be expected to start?

 

[member 51464]

Anyone else a bit sad about the rematch? The first one was so classic with Fury outboxing Wilder outside of the knockdowns and the amazing Lazarus moment coming back from the dead. There was something somehow fitting about it being a draw.

Anyway, looking at the weights they are coming in and all, I will guess with Fury wins by knockout within the first 3, or Wilder knocks Fury out before the end of the 6th. I can't see this one going the distance.

 

[Dialamo]

I've been hyped as **** all day. Been waiting for this rematch since Dec 2018.

What time can the main fight be expected to start?

I'd say 11:15pm EST to be safe. Currently there is a undercard fight going on in the 6th round, with one more undercard fight after.
