Otta Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 He was a pretty big puncher, they say that's the last thing to go. Has DeGale's chin really been tested yet (honest question)?

KidKruger Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 I'm not sure if Kessler could still do 168.He'd automatically be 2nd tier level I expect if he did come back, but as mentioned the guys operating at top level in their prime are going to hurt him - he wasn't outstanding enough to now come back after 4yrs and make a big impact.

KidKruger Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 On a separate note, Alex Saucedo is steadily getting his experience wth further fights - lastly in March.I mentioned him a couple of years ago and thought he'd have made an impact by now, but at some point I hope he shines through and gets some big fights.

KidKruger Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Well.... whether we boxing fans like it or not the biggest grossing boxing match ever is happening at the weekend.We're probably all agreed Mayweather wins hands-down, so (or if you disagree) HOW will the fight end ?I bet McGregor DQ in Round 8.

jacks09 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 I can see McGregor with an ear;y knockout....but that's just my optimism......Will be a dull fight with him chasing Money around the ring and not getting anywhere.On a separate note I have had a couple of White Collar Fights. For one of them I trained at Miguels in Brixton.....a young lad was made to spar with me. The only reason i knew i'd been hit is because my nose was bleeding....i didn't see where it came from or where it went.....He's now doing really well for Matchroom....Isaac Chamberlain....

KidKruger Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Is Saturday?s AJ v Usyk contest simply a case of A good big man beats a Good smaller man ?How do you see it panning out ??The other mention I?ll squeeze in here is Amanda Serrano. Deadly boxer, very possibly may come up TWO weights to fight Katie Taylor next year.

DuncanW Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Usyk is a former unified belt-holder and has never lost a professional fight. AJ's camp will not be underestimating him.Size will confer one advantage, but there is plenty more to it than that.That said, I still fancy AJ for it.

KidKruger Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 AJ was outmanoeuvred, out-punched, out-thought, and outclassed.No shame in that, Usyk is an anomaly like Lomachenko was.I disagree with some who say no point in a re-match, AJ has a punchers chance and in fact did catch Usyk decently a couple of times.Thanks to Wilder crying like a baby pulled off the teat and stopping the AJ v Fury fight (which I think would have happened by now) - that fight is very unlikely.Wilder would have far less chance than AJ of beating Usyk.Fury - I don?t know about this one, how does Usyk prepare for such unorthodoxy ?!Either way, it?s all been shaken up and AJ will need to climb the slippery ladder again, I imagine tho he?ll still leapfrog those waiting in line, such as Whyte.

KidKruger Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I?d like to think AJ would get the win, but from their backgrounds Usyk looked like the more experienced and talented man.

jazzer Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 From the radio commentary sounded very much as though for the first 6 rounds AJ did very little and then did too little too late. KK summarised the fight very well. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/4760-one-for-the-boxing-fans/page/54/#findComment-1538859 Share on other sites More sharing options...
