Both gasses, Mayer dead on her feat, Jonas can do her if she’s got anything left

Fiasco · « **Reply #75481 on:** January 20, 2024, 11:00:24 pm »

Yeah, women's boxing isn't for me but I hope Jonas gets the nod of course. But I think she lost that.

Andy82lfc · « **Reply #75482 on:** January 20, 2024, 11:01:07 pm »

Mayer just wanted that more, won that by a couple I reckon.

Brilliant fight and great sportswomenship at the end battered each other then hug

Mayer should be the winner but am wondering whether the 16/1 for the draw should have been backed.

Split Decision.

Happy for Jonas, but the most accurate scorecard was probably 97-93.

Don’t reckon Mayer will be back over here been on the end of two questionable decisions now

Andy82lfc · « **Reply #75487 on:** January 20, 2024, 11:04:18 pm »

Judges all over the place. Want Jonas to win but feel that’s a bit of a robbery for me.

Samie · « **Reply #75488 on:** January 20, 2024, 11:05:02 pm »

96-94 Jonas

97-93 Mayer

96-95 Jonas

Not sure I'd call it a robbery but I think Jonas is lucky enough to get the nod there. Hometown fighter and belt holder, you sometimes have to win an extra couple of rounds for those factors alone as the challenger.

It shouldn't be that way but it always is.

Cracking fight but no way Jonas won, Mayer walked her down land the better shots to the body & the head. Robbed in the UK again

Andy82lfc · « **Reply #75492 on:** January 20, 2024, 11:09:03 pm »

The only fans live stream from Mayers changing room is gonna be a bit of a downer now.

Andy, when did you suscribe? Before the fight or during?

Wouldn’t go as far as a robbery, but do think Mayer won. Jonas gutted it out and had her moments, and she’s seems lovely.

Great fight, womens boxing may not be for all but they nearly always put it all in and produce better fights than the men these days.

I’d say boxing scoring in this country is at an all time low. You know the opposing fighter isn’t getting a decision. It’s like Italy and Germany back in the day

Yeah I like Jonas but if I’m her I’d keep my head down and get back home, lucky as fuck there to put it mildly.

Not sure about that decision, I think the American won by a couple of rounds. But to be fair, plenty of British fighters go over there and end up getting robbed.

duvva 💅 · « **Reply #75497 on:** January 20, 2024, 11:12:52 pm »

Very gracious from Mayer there all things considered

Remember when you used to have to knock someone out in Germany to get a draw

Can't argue with that.

One final thing, they need to bin the national anthems at boxing. Let's stick to fighting.

I've always admired Ryder's willingness to fight anyone despite being outgunned by top-level fighters, which he certainly was last night!

However, it's time he hung them up after perhaps one last handy hometown fight, which I feel he deserves. Munguia has been too inactive lately, especially for a man with 40+ career fights, which is becoming rarer and rarer these days! A fight with Benavidez would set the pulses racing for sure!

Have the fight on Cinco De Mayo weekend , maybe as the main fight before Canelo fights. Winner takes him on in September. But this is boxing so the above scenario is fantasy.

I'd love to know what weight he's planning to fight Crawford at. It will be the funkiest catchweight of all time.

Samie · « **Reply #75511 on:** January 30, 2024, 01:23:28 pm »

Canelo thinks he can come down to 154lbs (Light Middle) but the toll on his body when he's gone up to Light Heavyweight will surely impact his health?

Canelo is able to glide up and down the weights effortlessly mate, it's his flawless genetics
