I do find it amusing that the commentator talk about banking rounds and winning 10-9….when more than ever the cards are a complete lottery

Well that was the worst 4-5 rounds ever seen. Talk about an easy ride.

And it's a literal graveyard in that arena, what a dump

It's absolutely horrendous isn't it? There was more noise at the fights in Eddie Hearn's garden during covid.
feck knows why they’re not piping in a bit of crowd noise, they must have had some feedback by now that these events are a morgue

Atmosphere is very poor, filled with smug celebrities than ordinary Joe supporters in attendance.

Probably. By the way, Parker is a really likeable bloke. If he had some power he’d be a terrifying heavyweight
He is and I've a lot of time for Andy Lee, and have been following the story with Parker moving to Ireland during the pandemic to train via Andy's interviews on Irish radio/podcasts, so happy to see Parker win.

It says a lot about this dead event that the biggest talking point is that weirdo prince holding hands with Frank Warren as they walked out.

Tyson managed to behave like a normal pundit for all of about 20 seconds. About 15 seconds longer than I was expecting in fairness.

Probably the first time in his career I want AJ to get knocked out.

Jesus, what has boxing become?

I'd happily hop in there and let AJ knock me out in 5 minutes if I was getting $20m for it too.
