    Absolute tripe, a fighter that you'd never pay to see fight. Stinking the place out, hopefully referee keeps docking him


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,252 ✭✭✭FTA69


    Askin actually wants a fight but Okolie just wants to hug him. This is poor stuff so far. Hopefully Campbell and Mendy have a punch up


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,022 ✭✭✭anthonyjmaher


    With the David Price disappointment and this sh1te now, they really need AJ to save the card. There's so little noise from the audience I can't work out if we're looking at the replay of the round or the actual live fight.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,855 ✭✭✭Morrison J


    Okolie should've been DQ'ed by now. Zero skill on show. What a joke of a fight. Need a tougher ref.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,625 ✭✭✭✭Johner


    What a shocking fight. I won’t be watching Okolie ever again, 3 points off, disgrace.

    Absolutely he should be DQ’d, seven f*ckin warnings. What’s the point in rules so? Shocking.

    Rubbish fight...
    That won't get more tv showing after this rubbish


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,183 ✭✭✭jobless


    Worst fight I've seen in years


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,987 ✭✭✭normanoffside


    Even Dillian Whyte thinks Okolie should ahve been DQ'ed :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,022 ✭✭✭anthonyjmaher


    You gotta wonder how long more Hearn is gonna keep putting Okolie on his cards. Because he's gonna get held responsible for it - he always promises "a great night of boxing" with the PPV, and you can be sure that every time Okolie fights it is gonna be terrible.

    I've never seen someone get three points taken but not DQ'ed. Mental. Worst performance to win a British title ever surely.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,951 ✭✭✭duffman13


    Okolie is a disgrace, even Hearn seemed pissed off! Far play to Whyte saying what everyone else is thinking. I wouldn't have an issue with him being disqualified tbh

    You would have to question the refereeing to be fair, almost afraid to DQ him

    Hope Campbell gets beaten...

    Not that I dislike him....he’s just an amateur in the pro game...

    Fed up with these bang average hyped up Brits..


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,252 ✭✭✭FTA69


    I used work with Luke’s mam and met him at our Christmas party, he’s pure sound so I’m biased.

    Mendy is 3/1 to win?? Jesus can’t believe I missed that, well worth a punt.


  • Registered Users Posts: 55,525 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    Is this it for the night for Campbell? Backing up and trying to land stealing punches?

    Mendy looks very comfortable here! Sky bigging up Luke now and he can become a world champion. Jesus let him try beat this guy first

    Not watching now, but first few rds he was useless...

    I hate sky so much. Masterclass my hole, running and landing the odd body shot. Six rounds in and two uppercuts landed

    Yeah, I feel the judges are sitting listening to the sky commentary or sitting right behind them if the first 6 rounds are scored for Campbell. I'd have probably 4-3 Campbell or Mendy. Tight fight again

    What's the story with Sky? Do they think people can't see what's happening with their own eyes? Some of the comments they are coming out with here...


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,252 ✭✭✭FTA69


    I mean I have it 6 odd rounds for Luke, but Jesus let’s not overegg the pudding here either. It’s a steal and dash, like Okolie except he’s running instead of grabbing


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,931 ✭✭✭✭Thargor


    What time are we looking at for the main event please? Still on for 10pm?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,951 ✭✭✭duffman13


    Round 8 to Campbell anyway, some nice shots in that one. He's never going to be world level though is he!

    It’s truly appalling, and more so because Mendy is useless...

    These lads belong in community centers...not PPV stadiums.

    Ring walks planned for 9:50, I'd say 10 past 10 would be safe enough


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,855 ✭✭✭Morrison J


    I think he's boxing pretty well to be fair. Mendy is no mug. Best I've ever seen Campbell.

    No no, Mendy is a good fighter but he's from France you see, which isn't a hot bed of boxing. Mandy is vastly underrated and it's no shame losing to him

    He’s the least inspiring pro fighter I have ever seen based off this showing..

    Last time I watched him was the last Mandy fight, has he fought much since then? I dont remember him on many cards anyway
