Apparently purse bids have been called for Joyce vs Dubois for the British title. Would be a great fight if it comes off but can't see it somehow.

Hmmm... Pretty sure WBC give their champions an automatic title shot if they move up in weight.  Would be interesting if Usyk went the Wilder route first.

In fairness to Joshua. Takam was a late replacement for Pulev, I think AJ would have put Takam away a lot quicker than Chisora if he’d been in camp for him.

Not sure whether this should go in here or in Media and Arts and know it may be frowned upon in here but the latest series of The Contender has started on ITV - anyone watching?  The involvement of Andre Ward, Freddie Roach and Nazim Richardson has added a bit of credibility for me and I've enjoyed the first 3 episodes.  Few recognisable faces in there I think with John Jackson a former Andy Lee opponent I think, and John Thompson who Liam Smith beat for the vacant world title a few years back, as well as Shane Mosleys son.  Didn't want to check those "facts" for fear of spoiling the results as I know it aired in America months ago. Unsure how far the winner will go in the "real world" but no doubt will, rightly or wrongly, give them a foot up as it were.

I've been watching the new series of The Contender, it's pretty decent. Andre Ward is good, seems natural as a presenter.

Anyone box?

I have been boxing 4 times a week as have a white collar fight coming up.

I been using cotton handwraps and 16oz gloves but yesterday after doing some bagwork and sparring taking my glove off was painful. Today woke up and stretched my hand and was in some pain, the big knuckle on my jab hand feel "crunchy" when i open and close my hand, there is no swelling though????


Any idea?

I'm surprised he hasn't done this yet though.

That's right, never done it before hand, total newbie which is what they want for these white collars.

I have been at it for 3 weeks now, 4 sessions a week.

If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.
