@mn5 when was the last time you saw FMJ try and knock someone out?
this had better be nothing short of a total embarrassment of epic proportions or the entire sport is going to lose an enormous amount of credibility

Try and remember who he’s “fighting” if it can even be called that

I don't understand this at all, if he loves boxing and his own legacy why does he even bother? Not like he needs the $. Maybe he still craves the attention. That's dangerous for a boxer in his 40s..

It taps into a different crowd , the non boxing crowd ,
It’s like when they have those old retired footballers( that’s what Floyd is ) play in those fun games ,
But that’s where it’s interesting, those that don’t follow much boxing, will lap this up like it’s the real deal, and those that do will roll their eyes,
I wouldn’t be paying for it , but lots will , and they will make plenty

Wilder has won his court case , fury must honour the rematch clause , ( which they claimed wilder broke by not activating in time )
So while everyone was excited for a fury v aj fight in august , that is now looking unlikely .
It’s looking like fury v wilder ( again ) aj v usyk , mid year , and should they both win, aj v fury end of year .

Or does Wilder get bought out? $ plus first shot at winner?
Other option risks belts going in all directions again doesn't it? -

As a sport it is in serious danger of not being relevant soon too, especially with how UFC is going. Boxing icons of yesteryear are a relic of the past unfortunately
At least Paul Gallen is going well though !

At least SBW had the good sense to realise that there it was no more fun and games after he was one round from going to hospital. Gallen will be the next Hopoate. Will build a record beating up bums and half-cripples then get destroyed by a recovering drug addict who was a contender a decade or more prior.

Arum has said we won’t be paying him , we will take care of him first , then fight AJ later in the year

I think a SBW/Gallen fight would be interesting to say the least. Think Ali/Frasier with considerably less skill.

I have an inkling Joe Frasier may have been better.
Gallens power and chin are pretty impressive though. One wonders how he would have gone if he’d started years earlier.

SBW got injured? Which fight? I haven't kept an eye on him apart from chuckling last year when I read what Tyson said
https://www.boxingscene.com/mike-tyson-views-sbw-fight-insult-boxing-wants-real-boxer--148797
And TBH I think he might have caused SBW a few too many problems, at 53 even! -

The 12 rounder that suddenly became 10 when SBW was on the verge of being knocked out. That was about 8 years ago and I don’t believe he has boxed since despite his generous offer to Iron Mike.

ah that one! So long ago was why it did not click for me, and yes SBW did seem troubled alright, quite lucky for him.
there was one since then but I don't blame you for forgetting Chauncy Weller. -

Imagine if it was a prime Frans Botha ( no seriously, imagine it ) SBW would be in a world of trouble.
Six years is a long time to be inactive in the fight game. Is he still seriously in line to fight Gallen at any stage ?
