    Chisora simply isn't tall enough.

      Fascinating scrap between Saunders and Eubank. The latter proved himself a good fighter. He practically gave away the first five rounds and looked a rank amateur with some of those wild haymakers but looked very dangerous later on.

      Chisora and Fury, **** me. I was asleep after five rounds.
      Thanks very much for being

        The Eubank tactics looked weird, it was like he was told to take it that slow - it lost him the fight. I heard Senior telling him "slow pressure" as late as the 4th. He was decent when he opened up and took it to Saunders, pretty sure it was a tactical **** up alone that lost him the fight.

            It was one of the most dire fights I have ever had the misfortune to see.

              It was, and it still somehow managed not to be worse than the "main event" from the prior weekend.

                  There have been some horrendous fight nights lately. The Pacquiao one was also dull as hell too. I know it's up to the fighters, but the promoters definitely need to take some of the blame.

                    One thing i noticed was that Fury didn't look in the same shape as he did when he was about to face Haye.

                    He actually looked like an athlete before that fight.

                    Obviously he didn't need to be v 'Del Boy'.

                    Still a bit gutted with the Eubank fight, tactics were all wrong for the lad, maybe his Dad was a bit too weary with this being his toughest fight against a durable and canny opponent, and he knows better now hopefully, or he really believed his lad would dominate the later rounds and do enough, which he nearly did tbf.

                    Either way, he can most definatley improve, which is good.

                      Fury always looks a mixture of weedy and flabby

                        He was even being told how to punch by the ref, it was that bad.

                          Fury facts

                          1. Cannot box. He is technically appauling
                          2. Fatty Pablo is fitter than him
                          3. Wladimir Klitschko would destroy him

                              So then.

                              Khan vs Alexander Saturday.

                                Amazing how this fight has pretty much flown under the radar.

                                Khan fighting used to be a fairly big event. Now it seems like an after thought.

                                It's on Sky Sports at silly o'clock. One to Sky + and watch on Sunday.
