[The Big Dady]

Another good round for Taylor

 

[Ricey]

Taylor takes the 4th but a better round from Martin.

 

[The Big Dady]

Another great round for Taylor, All those body shots are going to count later on.

 

[Ricey]

5th for Taylor, Martin is starting to really get into the fight. Taylor’s work to the body is excellent I don’t know how much longer Martin can withstand that!

 

[Ricey]

Another Taylor round, Martin has some balls if he managed to last past 8 the way this is going.

 

[Ricey]

Cut underneath Martin’s eye now.

 

[The Big Dady]

Some fantastic body shots again by Taylor

 

[The Big Dady]

Great round, great win by Taylor

 

[Ricey]

Great shot, massively premature stoppage from the ref there.

 

[Ricey]

Those ones right in the ear ****ing kill and really send you off balance. Great shot and great win, this kid is the real deal. Him vs Prograis in the final will be one hell of a fight.

 

[The Big Dady]

Yes think he could have let it go ob a bit longer, thought the punch was to the back of hid head

 

[The Big Dady]

Taylor vs Prograis can not wait, it will be a war.

Cruiserweight next weekend from Chicago USA

Taylor vs Prograis can not wait, it will be a war.

Both still have fights before then so could be a twist but unless a Burnett style injury it’s a Taylor v Prograis final.

Cruiserweight next weekend from Chicago USA

The only one that doesn’t really excite me this season. It’s been done and it’s not the same without Usyk!

Bet you will still watch it?

Of course I will, if there is boxing on the TV I will watch it.

 

[Ricky Otto]

bit underwhelming those 2 fights, freak retirement and dubious stoppage. Glad it was free.

On to Saturday and Usyk v Bellew, surely even Bellew who surprises me again and again can't get near this guy?

 

[Ricey]

You can never discount the 2nd coming of Bellew but unfortunately for him Usyk is the REAL deal. He's a cruiser who moves like a middleweight. I could see this being a real schooling of Bellew and probably a terrible way to end his career.

 

[Spaceman Spiff]

This is all a very interesting debating sideshow, when we all know that the real match we all want to see is Rigsby v Another Surrey Shrimper. I’m thinking mud slinging should be involved (Shakira style).

Yep Usyk is definitely the real deal and fair play to Bellew for taking the fight, I don't think he's under any illusions as to how big a test this is. I really like Bellew and he has proven himself quite shrewd in his fight gameplans, Usyk should win easily but I reckon Bellew will frustrate him a bit and Usyk will stop him late on.
