I'm sure I read somewhere that that's how Floyd used to train, get 4 sparring partners and rotate them at the end of each round.  So he'd probably still win!

Would be some spectacle though ;D  Imagine 50 cent making the power tag at the start of round 4 :lmao

Never knew that!...Haha that's exactly what I had in my mind  :wellin

You know Tyson is going to try and throw someone off the cage. Lennox Lewis is the special guest referee who get's involved.

Featherweight division is a bit shit currently bar Santa Cruz and Gary Russell. So Josh even with a loss should still be fine to be competitive there.

I can see Josh moving up to Super Featherweight or Lightweight even. Sometimes when you're out for so long it's a good idea to move up a weight especially in these lower weight classes.

I think he needs to forget about boxing for 6 months and until crowds are allowed back. He needs to recover. He got battered.

Yep, was a shadow of himself. Taking nothing away from the young lad that battered him.

Wonder how much Warrington relies on those Leeds fans cos he was piss poor last night.

He wasn't a shadow of himself at all. I think he knew about the lads punching power and was worried about it then he felt it and knew was in trouble straight away. Josh tried to fight the fight he normal does but he lacks power.

He knew about his punching power when he kept getting whacked. He was nowhere near at a level that he has been I don't know how you can claim that. Especially at those lower weights you can get away with having no power if you box properly, he looked lost in there.

Warrington was done in round 4 and the fight should have been stopped then. Had it been Lara in the same position it would have been.

The scorecards in the Barrett-Martinez fight were a disgrace. I thought Kiko had won the fight but a close decision either way would have been fine.
