lol Dan Rafael WOAT judge

He gave rounds 7 and 8 to Brook. What ****ing fight was he watching?

Sucks that the most popular boxing writer is absolutely horrible at it.

I think Manny is still the best Welterweight until he loses a step or Crawford/Spence takes it from him. The latter two look so good but Manny has consistently been on another level and only Floyd and a nasty Marquez right have answered him in the last half dozen years.

Also, Thurman's style will be very difficult for Spence to deal with. Spence had a timing issue with Brook for the first 5 rounds and Thurman is better on his feet and can score with cleaner punches.

Crawford manny is so good I completely agree with Brian Campbell that Crawford should honestly just pull a broner at this point and try to be a bad boy . He's not selling fights but he need to heel turn

Brook made a career of beating up smaller guys.

As soon as hes stepped up against a proper opponent hes struggled.

Got a favourable decision against Porter and got the fight beaten out of him against his next 2 live opponents.

Brendle Ingle seems like a average corner man too ...

Made enough money though .... not sure what's at 154 to be honest ...

Meh. He deserved win v porter and no shame in his two losses (although he did quit twice ...) his career is a joke tho pathetic matchmaking . I don't understand in the slightest. I still think he should get in there v khan it's a good fight for both guys to make a fortune

Hearn did brook no favors with his matchmaking. I think brook could beat anyone at the weight for the most part but you throw him in with GGG then a young monster who has no real name yet? Makes no sense to me. Not even to mention the years of garbage fights

Seems as if Hearn/SUFC didn't work out that fans in attendance might want a drink, with reported queues of two hours for a beer

Probably by design. British fans have a reputation for being ****ty drunks when at sporting events.

Brook's confirmed it's another fractured eye socket. Long lay off for surgery again.

Has anyone got any opinions/predictions on the Josh Taylor vs Ohara Davies scrap in July?

It's a great domestic fight, both guys could go quite far in the sport. Josh Taylor from what I've seen is very slick though so I'd lean towards him. He's also the home fighter (weird to see an Eddie Hearn fighter on another promoters event, money talks I guess).

Whenever I see a ****ty fight, I watch Gatti/Ward I or Marquez/Vasquez III to counter-balance.

Will be nice to watch Mikey get a solid win here before he fights Loma.
