I was kind of surprised to see him still fighting after the midweek incident.

I won't be cheering for him anyway.

Johner

I thought Gorman was very impressive there, Turner not up to much but he's tough.

megadodge

I though BT and Boxnation operated together?

This show is not on Boxnation and obviously I don't have BT.

Hope fury gets his **** together to get in the wilder Joshua mix. Neither I think are in league with the greats but it’ll be good for the division.

Johner

Hooker can’t miss with that right hand. Flanagan looking poor so far.

...Ugh, that cut!!!...

Rougly what time would people expect the Fury fight to begin by?

Conservatory

Young lad Gorman looks classy. Can’t believe he’s not 40 though by looking at him.

tinpib

10:15pm according to Betfair which is usually reliable.

edit: just flicked on to BT sport and I see it's in round 10/12 of this fight so defo not 10:15pm.

x PyRo

One judge gave it 117-111 to Flanagan - fuck me.

normanoffside

117-111 Flanagan :pac:

Johner

The right man won that.

Finally a commentator explains how in a close fight you can have wide scores....beats all the nonsense cries of “disgracefulcatd.”

Hooker overall deserved it...

Neither man comes close to great..

Big Ears

First thing that came into my head is that Josh Taylor would make bits of Hooker.

He's okay Hooker tbf, just not genuine World Class. Flanagan was a solid fighter at Lightweight, but he'll struggle up at 140 by the look of that fight.

walshb

Woodhall: He ruled at LW...

Beat fooking nobody...

I think if two judges are looking at the same fight and score the fight 117-111 in opposing directions, then there is either something wrong with the judges or there is just something wrong with the scoring system. Ridiculous.
I see the Irish guy lost to Nathan Gorman. He was talking the big talk at the presser. Even interrupted Ricky Hatton a few times!! But Gorman got him out in three.

Fury Entrance music: 'Because I got high' :pac:

Should Billy Joe be walking on that hamstring :-)

If the rds are razor close then there is nothing wrong with the scoring system or the judges...it has always been a humanly subjective judging based system..

Ah ffs, yer man is dressed like a girl scout.

All fights should continue till there's a knockout, eliminate judges

What's with seferis socks. Is he going straight on a long haul flight when the fights over?

walshb

Get fooking on with it...

Ref needs to set the tone here..

anthonyjmaher

ffs, it's a joke. Can you imagine if you had paid for this?

Guy:Incognito

Furys jiggly left tit is distracting me in the head on shots .
