I've never paid for a Klitschko snore fest and settled for the radio. It sounded a good fight but admittedly today's commentators paint a picture more like Rolf Harris than Rembrandt.

Are you saying the commentators today are kiddy fiddlers?
Average fight at best. Can't wait till Joshua knocks him out.
Says a lot that a fighter from your own country fights one of the biggest bores in history and you wanted the bore to win.

Not a fan of his boxing but at least Fury brings entertainment to the heavies
I can also imagine lots of guys thinking that they can be world champ now so it could actually mean some exciting times for the division

Did anyone else listen on Radio 5live in the UK? I don't who the bozo was doing the summarising, but he proclaimed before the decision was announced "Take it from me Klitschko will get the decision". Afterwards he said "Take if from me Klitschko won't want a rematch." Super.
German TV gave the fight to Fury and Fury & Klitschko both want a rematch (no idea who'll want to watch it) so 0/2

Anyone watch the De Gale fight? Jim Watt scored it a draw 114-114. The judges scored it 117-111, 117-111, 116-112
Saw a replay last night and whilst I think it's fair to say that the scoring was ridiculously wide, it was almost impossible to mount a case for a Bute win so not an outright robbery

Fury a title down already. On the evidence of last night, by the time Joshua is ready for a title shot Fury will no longer be Champion.

Personally can't wait till Joshua is caught with his stash of juice, but that's extremely unlikely given the lack of regulation in boxing and how easy it is to cheat. Insanely arrogant to juice to that level though.
Canelo vs Khan must be a contender for the title of worst middleweight title fight in history
It will be held at catch-weight between a champion who has never fought at the middleweight limit and a challenger who isn't one of the 4 best welterweights
Should be billed as Guy who is ****-scared of GGG vs Guy looking for retirement payday
Joke of a fight

I don't blame Canelo as his record indicates that he'll get in with anyone
The problem is far more likely to be Oscar as GBP has been decimated by Haymon and Canelo is his only cash cow so he wont risk him against GGG
The funny thing is that Khan has the potential to cause him problems with his speed but history says that he doesn't have the brain to stick & move all night
Eventually, he will get sucked into trading and it's likely that will be all she wrote
In any event, fighting a smaller guy with a questionable chin is no preparation for GGG who is a natural 160 lber with massive power
Ok so everyone knows that it is a paper title and that Chagaev is a shadow of his former self but ......
Lucas Browne, heavyweight champeeeeeeeeeon of the world!
Funny thing is that I would back every top 10-15 hw against him bar Fury - guy can crack/Fury can't, he has a great chin and I reckon that Browne would walk him down & stop him after losing virtually every round
Seriously doubt that it will ever get to that as Browne has far bigger challenges in front of him and I hope that he makes a few bucks in the meantime as he is apparently a lovely bloke
