A roundtable with current heavyweights would be fun. Whyte, Fury, AJ, Wilder and Usyk. Stick Chisora in there too for some light entertainment and maybe a bit of table-throwing

I thought Roy Jones looked a bit younger in it. :D

What a delusional Bufoon Collins is in that, he still thinks a prime RJJ avoided him.

Big Chemist Miller caught again. The issue in the US is they don’t have an equivalent of the British Boxing Board of Control. Still I can’t see Nevada licensing him to fight there again anytime soon.
