Matchroom's relationship with Stubhub is leaving a real sour taste for me. The prices on there for Brook vs Golovkin, not to mention how many tickets there are, is a disgrace really.

Yep, it's very shitty and you get the likes of Joshua "stay humble" promoting it on twitter. Dodgy as fuck. "Sold out in 2 minutes" well not quite.

Matchroom sell face value tickets to Stubhub, it's touts re-selling tickets through that site where the extortionate prices come from. Stubhub should be cutting it out really, not just boxing where this touting happens on there.

Matchroom should be fucking off anything to do with them not openly flaunting a partnership with them!

Just came on to post about Jim Watt, fantastic news

I won't be disrespectful about Watt but his time to go was well overdue. Hopefully Smigga picks up the mantle going forward

Samie · « **Reply #45811 on:** July 23, 2016, 12:44:03 pm »

Well it's been a long time coming but good luck to Jim.

As for boxing lads, Crawford Vs Pistol is on tonight. Unification fight @140lbs.

Crawford is the real deal. In a few years, him v Errol Spence will be a superfight provided they stay undefeated.

Did anyone see Oscar Valdez? Featherweight is some division now with some of the fights that can be made!

What an absolute prick. I hope he gets sparked out cold by Klitschko

I still can't help but quite like Tyson - he's an absolute beaut no doubt about that but i he does make me laugh and you can't fault what he's done in the ring.

I think he's hilarious personally, best heavyweight in the world as well at the moment I think his boxing skills are so underrated

Agree on the underrated part, but I'm bored to death of him to be honest. Every couple of months someone comes on here and posts a video like that of the same old fucking routine. Wish he'd shut up and get on with it to be honest.

No place in any sport for what he's said about women, gays, jews and whatever else either.

Fury's an odd one. He seems to have a different mantra depending on what kind of mood he's in. One minute he's a fat mess taking the piss out of himself and saying he doesn't care, the next he's wanting to slap this and that, and everyone else are bums and he's a real fighter. I can't take him seriously. In and outside the ring.

I'm convinced he's schizophrenic

JohnnyNI · « **Reply #45831 on:** July 30, 2016, 03:32:59 pm »

Who we all got for tonight then?

Being a fellow countryman I'm rooting for Carl and hoping that he can get the win but I just feel Santa Cruz will have too much for him, can see Santa Cruz getting the decision or even a late round KO. Hoping I'm wrong though and Frampton can cause an upset.

On my way to Leeds for the 'Leeds Rumble' - should be a cracking night.
One of our mates is fighting against Sam Eggington, but there's a packed card anyway.

Proper looking forward to it.

I'm struggling to see how the Jackal pulls this one off. He is going up in weight and I reckon Santa Cruz will be much bigger than him; Santa Cruz apparently has a 7 inch reach advantage so Frampton probably needs to stand in the pocket more than he would like against a non-stop pressure fighter with an incredible engine. I can see Santa Cruz walking him down and stopping a tired Frampton in round 10 or 11 to be honest.
