That fight was just sad and unnecessary.

Chuck had nothing, he backed up in the entire time, offering almost no offense, and got knocked out cold at the end of round one.

It was clear at once that he had no business being in there. Tito celebrated wildly as usual, as if he accomplished something.

yeah, chuck had lost his chin in my opinion before he retired- when that happens to a fighter, they usually don’t coem back- they are too susceptible havign developed a glass jaw- used to be he coudl really take a punch, then i noticed him gettign rocked, and eventually knocked out a few times- Shame, he is a legend, but it was tiem for him to stay quit- all this match was was a chance at a big paycheck for him-

Did tito show anythign at all? I wasn’t too impressed with his match awhile back when he returned-

I’ll pick Bam Bam, Pedro and Big Pretty. It pains me to pick against Mark Hunt, but his prime is in the rear view mirror.

I really want Tui to win but I don’t think he can get by JDS. I’ll go with Hunt too.

Nice. A guy on my flight back from Dublin yesterday was coming in to LAX specifically to see the Tyson fury fight at Staples Center.

Hunt/Willis is the cure for insomnia though the first 2 rounds.

Rua KOs Tyson Pedro

Fury/Wilder ends in a split draw, Fury nearly KOed in the 12th. I missed most of it but everyone thinks Fury was robbed, that he won 10 rounds or so.
