In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
What an embarrassing waste of time he's been.
Get AJ and Fury in the ring and then can we just agree to finish heavyweight boxing for a decade or so?

Need a few of these idiots getting sparked out to keep the boxing in boxing.
Think that fight says more about Furry than it does about AJ.
Damn! Made it look like how it is supposed to look.
Joshua looks good.
Fury looks absolutely gutted.

That's impressive from Joshua. Hope Ngannou is ok.
elaborate?
He clearly didn't take that fight seriously at all.
Fury's face!
I'm glad that's happened just for boxing. Ngannou shouldn't be on the level of the top pros.
Absolutely brutal knockout from Joshua!
So now AJs beat him I guess Ngannou is back to being just an mma fighter and never a serious test at all
He should've never have been in the ring and the likes of hearn and Warren and fury have a lot to answer for. Could've seriously hurt

That's a killable punch
That was craaazzzzyyy knockout punch 
He beats fury right now. Don't think he does about 5 years ago, he does now.
Hard to watch that second right. Ridiculous power and he’s clearly already dazed.
Ngannou, McGregor, Paul, KSI etc
Eddie Hearn, the slimy cnut. I'd pay PPV money to see him take that punch.
Yeah but how does he not see that coming? This crap is embarrassing for the sport.Idiot
That was a colossal punch.
Only way Fury could be more disappointed is if a gay guy had just done that to Ngannou.
I actually think it's good for the integrity of boxing. The gulf should be that wide and it'll put more crossover ideas to bed.
Boxing needed this.
He’s always been a decent match up to Fury in my opinion. Stylistically I think AJs power would alway cause him trouble. If Fury does somehow beat Usyk then we might finally see it happen.
Happy for AJ.
It should have been stopped before. He was out on his feet when the punch came in.
Staying up? Hes a 9-5 guy. Goes to bed at 9am and wakes up at 5.
AJ is so fecking boring now when he speaks, he used to genuinely be an interesting guy. How does he manage to be so uncool? The fake gangster shit is cringeworthy.
Or he's not as good as people think
The echos in that venue are louder than the crowd...
I was worried for Ngannou there for a minute.
How do you prepare tactically for a fight when someone has never fought in that sport?
Ngannou was really, really poor tonight, left himself open all night for that straight right.
I don't think the AJ/Fury fight ever happens. I think Fury will retire after 2-3 fights against Usyk.
Well that was quick. Don’t worry guys, within 2 years the only 2 words we’ll hear in heavyweight boxing, or at any weight for that matter, will be Moses Itauma.
I liked how Joshua looked in the drills pre-fight. That movement and co-ordination is so much nicer than his old mechanical self.
He's a lot more rhythmic now. I think he's also found his perfect weight.

Step 1 is probably having a camp longer than the five weeks he bothered with.
That was brutal.
It was predictable but my god that was uncomfortable to watch.
That knockout was old AJ.
New. I think. He didn't have that speed or smoothness before.
