That 12th Round was ridiculously impressive.
I have never ever seen someone take a dig like that in a fight, get up from it and then take the fight to the guy that just floored them in that manner.
Tyson is an absolute warrior IMO, special fighter. That's easily one of the worst calls in modern sporting history IMO...have been reflecting upon it a fair bit.
Ben Davison obviously knows what he's about and knows his boxing...keeping Fury entertained is quite the job.
The scream he let out with 1:24 left in the last round when Tyson put his hands behind his back (?) was funny, despairing, primal and heartfelt.
At the start of the round, he told him to wrap him up and Tyson went in to trade and caught those highlight swings back...that round was monstrous.
That fight should guarantee him a full 10 count for the rest of his career if his head's still attached to his shoulders and he goes down from any referee.

Rematch sanctioned...

Can't wait for this tbh.
Fair bit of boxing on this weekend...Lomachenko is 1/20 against Pedraza...for a change. Is it wrong that I kind of want someone to spark him right out?
Anthony Fowler, Hrgovic, Kid Galahad and Dogboe all on tonight as well as Kell Brook...will be interesting to see how Hrgovic gets on against Kevin Johnson, who Dubois wasn't that great against. Kevin Johnson is fucking hard to watch when he fancies doing the rounds though.

Very poor show from Brook tonight, sloppy defence and had plenty of opportunities to finish it off.
Hopefully just a bit of ring rust but does make you wonder if that’s it for him as if thought any of the top boys that way they would destroy him.

Stick a fork in him. Finished.
The only fight for him, well both of them actually is against Khan. Both done.
The best thing for all involved would be retirement though.

Hrgovic is a good fighter. I thought he was the best super heavyweight in Rio. Another who got shafted against Yoka though.

Some interesting fights last night, Hrgovic went the distance with Johnson, but I never caught it...Anthony Fowler with another knockout, Lomachenko fastest in history to 3 division titles with a UD and Navarrete upsetting Dogboe with a great showing.
Some of the highlights etc.
Teofimo Lopez KO on Mason Menard

Wilder on Joe Rogan with both of them ignoring who won the fight.
Seems like he's surrounded by yes men and believes all the hype...long count, too light, I win the fight etc. He's hard to like...would have loved Joe to ask him about the Malik Scott "Knock-out"...

Going to be a very hard night for him, just hope he goes a few rounds and come away from the fight knowing he done all he could and comes away from the fight OK.
