Rafael Garcia (Mayweather's cutman) has passed away today. He's a proper boxing legend. Been around since I started watching boxing in the 80's. RIP

[Doc_Piptorious]

Yeah he tended to some of the best in the game over the past 50 or 60 years, and had a rep of being one of the very best in his field. Proper mix of modern and old school knowledge.


His son has been making a simlar name for himself as a cut man/corner man for some years now as well, so hopefully he will carry on the family business as well as his dad did.

Been rumours for a week or so that Haye was ****ed.

Hope Haye never gets another pay day in the ring. Well past his best and bleeding the fans dry with these types of **** fights.

[Shaggy]

Yeah he should call it a day now. His body is obviously ****ed.

Haye press release

“I am devastated to announce my much-anticipated rematch against Tony Bellew has been postponed until March 24 or May 5, subject to scheduling,” said Haye. “Despite the recent injury rumours, I was in perfect condition with an incredibly strong training camp, currently weighing lighter than I have for more than five years, I couldn’t wait to get back in the ring. I was ready to rewrite the ending of the Haye Bellew saga.

“Unfortunately, after a freak accident during a stair conditioning session, which I’ve done with no incident hundreds of times, I lost my footing, slipped, so instinctively grabbed the bannister to stop myself toppling down the stairwell, in doing so I somehow managed to damage my bicep in the process. This afternoon I underwent a procedure to repair it, this was pretty straightforward and my doctor and physiotherapist have no doubt that not only will I make a full recovery but will be able to be back in the gym to start my arm rehabilitation in two weeks.

“I would like to apologise to Tony, his family and his training team, as well as all our fans who have been left disappointed. I’ve been solely focussed on this fight and it’s extremely frustrating that I couldn’t finish 2017 with just my ring performance doing the talking. I look forward to getting back to training and into the ring in early 2018 with excitement and determination.”

“I’m gutted that the rematch with David has been postponed, both for myself but more for the fans,” said Bellew. “I’ve had a tough camp with a lot going on in my life but was ready to repeat my win from March.

“I’ll get over this disappointment over Christmas with my family and will be straight back into camp for a new date, it’s a big disappointment but as always I leave my career in the hands of Eddie Hearn and Matchroom Boxing who will get me back in there ASAP.”



**** off David

Good to see Fury is training again, but he still looks absolutely massive:

Genuine question, is there anything to stop someone like him getting liposuction? Seems like he could shift a ton of fat quick that way.

So looking forward to the fight tomorrow night.

Will be a frightening amount of talent in the ring. Two guys who are each probably the best in the world at what they each do best.


In terms of ability, skill, and ring intelligence, I don't think I have ever seen two boxers with such technical ability in the one ring at the same time.

Loma has to be the favourite being the naturally bigger man and the more proactive usually in style, and normally it would be a no brainer to say he will win inside the distance, but cannot shake the feeling that Rigo will drop that habit of his of coasting when he has a lead and put in a stellar consistent performance that sees him overcome the larger man.

I really like both fighters and it's a fight I have been looking forward to seeing how two fighters with great foot work compete against each other. I'm going for Lomachenko on points

[spud_gun]

Loma is going to win this fairly easily. Ringo is too small.
