Let's get together we can, Get hot
Happened already , thought it would be USA time

Nah, America isn't really a factor in the scheduling, airing or promotion of the Klitchko brother's fights and hasn't been for a few years now.Originally Posted by vandeleur

Right watched the klit fight ...
Here is my cover version of a binnie breakdown lol
Apart form the first round .. klitchko sticks jab in thompsons face and cocks right ready to land.
World waits for klit to throw it.
5th round bang on the button thompson hit with right. thompson pulls cartoon whatwaz that face and hits canvas.
6th round thompson was dead in the water waiting for klit to throw the right again , klit cool as can be just stalked thompson down.
Then Bang right hand off klitchko and klitch pushed stunned thompson over. fight over .
Thought thompson was doing that thing you do in the band when you want the rest of them to speed up to the ref with the count, he could have carried on but am glad he didnt, what would have been the point.
opinion of fight .....
Easy day at work for klitch , thompson very poor opposition.
seemingly tompson is the best american heavy weight out there ...... sad thought.
Thompson seemed like he wanted to try and work behind his jab,But that was all he tried to do.The rest of the fight he just filled rounds and gave up in the 6th.It was more entertaining than the Tyson Fury fight though
Did u not think it was like watching a movie were u knew the ending , i was just waiting for him to throw the right .. Surprised it took so long to catch him
I did yes.They probably told Wlad not to embarrass Thompson.He probably could have put him out earlier
The Donaire fight was great, IMO. Mathebula's 5 inches taller, and Donaire (while eating 8 shots to get in 1) was lunging at him, but when he did connect - WOW. Mathebula had never been down in his pro career either, and that left hook Nonito caught him with in the 4th round was beautiful. Then not sure if it was the 9th or 10th round where Donaire cracked one of Mathebula's teeth right a vicious right, causing Mathebula to basically run from him for the rest of the fight... I thought it was a little closer than the colossally wide margin the judges scored it, but Donaire was impressive as usual.
Interesting that there's been two major fights with broken jaws & cracked teeth lately...Ortiz a coupla weeks ago and now Mathebula.
Donaire delivered.
I suppose Wald delivered in his own way. Who the hell is left for him?
Fury beat up Madalone. No surprises there. 7'' smaller, 38 years old and all the skills of a dead cat. Fury is getting better but until they put him in with someone half decent we'll never know how good he is.

Haye chisora is a warm up for the winner to fight one of the klitchkos
If fury keeps chinning pensioners he will get a shot at one of the klitchko by default of there being no one else ...
I will second that.Both guys brought it but Donaire was fantastic.Props to Mathebula too.Good fight indeed.Doniare definitely has the talent to b an ATG.The his hand and foot speed are both great and some of the angles he throws from you don't see in many guys.And people think boxing is dead.The lower weight divisions are good,It is a shame they get overlooked
Thompson didn't look like he was there to win. After all of his talk about redemption and what it meant to him he came out and laid an egg. Shame on you Tony.
Donaire did look great and he answered questions about his power. He wants to claim another belt in his current class in order to have 3 out of 4 belts before moving up. That doesn't translate into a mega fight coming for him anytime soon.
Pavlick looked alright. The guy he fault was really good. However, Pav is in for a rude awakening if he thinks he is going to hang with the likes of Ward, Froch or Kessler. His power could keep him in for awhile and it would be entertaining but i think ultimately Froch would get him. I think he may want to try Bute as a measuring stick first.
Haye vs Chisora offers intrigue. I am looking forward to this fight a lot. I haven't made my mind up yet about the winner. I am still not sold on Haye as a heavy and Chisora is a nut.
RIDE TO LIVE, LIVE TO RIDE
LET `EM ROLL ONE MORE TIME
QUOTE=binnie;1669771]So, both Froch and Bute are fighting TBAs in November and then having a rematch in March 2013.
What on EARTH are team Bute thinking?[/QUOTE]
I don't know........so should Bute win in November there's a rematch in March 2013?
Now who`s that babe with the fab-u-lous shad-ow?
Yeah, but if that happens his trainers and management need to examine their morals. Fury may be making decent bank fighting on channel 5, but if he wants to be champ he needs to be tested.
Yep.
Haye-Vitali is the fight that will be made if things go to plan.
Hope Haye's toe does not get injured against Chisora.We all know the broken toes was the only reason he didn't eat Wlad for breakfast
Which of the two of them do you think is more of a dick?
Chisora
Chisora without question. Pretty nasty piece of work.
Haye is arrogant, but it goes with the territory. The problem is that he also possesses a lack of charm (unlike, say, Ali).
Haye also has had the more impressive career of the two having held the the WBA, WBC, WBO and European cruiserweight title's as well as the WBA heavyweight belt.That gives him more room to be a dick.What has Chisora ever done
Haye is a funny one. He could have been the cruiserweight king for as long as he wanted, but he chose to dare and come up to heavy.
I respect that, even if his mouth has made cheques at heavyweight which his fists are yet to back up (although I think Valuev, Ruiz and Barrett are good scalps).
When I was out and about in bars at the weekend there seemed to be a lot more promotion going on for this fight than most.
Thought I would check with you guys who I should be supporting, I don't know much about Chisora.
I's funny I always think of Haye as an annoying little guy but I just looked it up and apparently he is 6'3"!
It's all relative I guess...
Back Haye.yes he has a big mouth but he has achieved some impressive things.As binnie said as a cruiser he was very good.I think he is a good heavy aside from his piss poor performance against Wlad.Chisora is a former British heavyweight champ but aside from that has done very little to justify the big chip he carries.The most notable thing he has done is have his ass handed to him by Haye in that unsavory press conference brawl.An all round nasty piece of workWhen I was out and about in bars at the weekend there seemed to be a lot more promotion going on for this fight than most.

Chisora is a thug. Google him and look at his charges/record.
I'll say this though: despite being out of condition in most of his fights he is a tough customer and will be much, much heavier than Haye and prepared to take all the punishment Haye can dish out. Assuming Haye keeps from getting himself tagged too much I expect him to be too fast and too sharp for Chisora. Move, move, 1-2, move, move, 1-2. And so on.
Haye is a small heavy by today's standards. The interesting thing is that he's actually about the same size as Ali - 6'3'' and 215-220. Admitedly Ali is naturally heavier (Haye is muscular) but it shows just how freakishly large heavies have become since the '90s.
Bookies have Haye as a strong favourite.
haye should hand chisora his ass on a plate ... i dont rate chisora at all ...apart from the fact he is a nob.
But i was surprised how well he did against vitali ...
i got mates coming out to watch the fight who arnt even that bothered about boxing .. i think the hype has worked and its on at a class time to go out have as much beer as is humanly possible and then watch the fight in a good pub atmosphere...am sick of watching bigish fights at my mates and by 4 oclock comes round half are asleep and am to pissed to do anything but try and draw on their faces
Chisora has a punch and he'll be looking to maul Haye, who has to keep his distance to win.
I thought chisora proved he could take a punch against vitali and arguably did better against his klitchko than haye did against his ...am not sure where chisora dragged that performance up from but he did it.
It's gonna be an enjoyable fight but I don't think I Like either guy .
I am pretty sure there will be a strange balancing act between both fighters trying to wind each other up
And both fighters trying to behave ... Should be interesting
Chisora did better against Vitali than Haye did against Wlad but watching that fight i could not help but think Vitali was showing his age.I would even say now out of the two Wlad is the bigger danger.So yes Chisora can take a beating but he also lost to Tyson Fury,'Nuff said.As long as Haye sticks and moves and does not try standing and banging he should take this.Chisora will know this so will try to cut off the ring,pressure haye to the ropes and clinch to slow him down.Still say Haye takes it though
In terms of character i don't actually mind Haye.He was the unified cruiserweight champ and can actually box,His accomplishments give him a bit of room to be an ass.Chisora is like a pantomime villain.He is not a terribly good boxer and has done very little.As binnie has said he is a thug outside of the ring.I am sure i read some time back he has two charges for assault
This is why i have some worry about Haye in this fight. He has a lot of skill but that squared circle has parameters. I'm afraid that his workrate to keep distance may tire him enough to get caught late.
All the talk is haye and chisora but is any body up for khan vs Garcia ....
I fancy it I think it will be an exciting fight , I don't see it being boring that's for sure
you know i was going to mention that fight myself earlier.I say Khan will take this one.What with all the racial stuff from Garcia's father i would think Khan will have fire going in to it.Should be a good one
Yeah the more I read about it the more exciting it sounds
Khan should win it fairly handily.
Garcia is tough and hungry, but he's slower than soil erosion.....
Well lets start making some official picks. I don't have any virtual dollars left but i can use my virtual credit card.
man i think were all back at one dollar each after the paq man result took us to the cleaners
I concur.
Official pick:
Haye UD Chisora.
I'll break it down later.
