Call me old fashioned, but I think it’s insane that a member of a fighter’s team is also commentating on the fight.

Not enough people who had balls around him you mean. Alex should have been in hospital and nowhere near a boxing ring that night. Gomez knew it and thats why he refused Alex the rematch..

Michael told me the same to my face. He was the man that night. His preperation was perfect. Kerry Kayes, Billy Graham, Ricky Hatton for sparring. I trained alone & someone should have pulled me out fight week. Why I’ll always look after my sons!
Clint Neale@CJSN198217h
I thought that was the case mate! I was gutted! In hindsight, would you have pulled out?? A fully fit AA, wins that fight, no question!!

No mate I never. I’m a boxing historian so I struggle to listen to some of the bullshit.

In bed all fight week on antibiotics, later fined by the board for it. Had to drop 7& a half lbs a few hours before the weighin. Dead on my feet prior to the bout. But we’re fighters, or where. I was gonna die before I quit. 🥊🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@AlexArthur1 was really ill in fight week, if I remember correctly? Shouldn’t have fought! A fit Arthur would have destroyed him! Showed incredible heart but shouldn’t have been in there!

Prime Ali wins easiest, Lennox next, then Prime Evander, followed by big George then Tyson. But they all beat him imo. I’m not saying there’s not a stage Usyk can beat them also.

What would Oleksandr Usyk’s record be if he fought each of these heavyweight legends?

Champ I understand different judges look for different things and a lot is personal preference but let’s talk boxing… punches landed, ring generalship, dominance, tempo control. All with young Gomez.

Oleksandr Usyk is the best heavyweight in the world but he is no longer fighting the best heavyweights in the world. Daniel Dubois is the best heavyweight in the world who is fighting the best heavyweights in the world.

Just finished watching it this second, couldn’t agree with you more. Was pretty shitty that call.

1/2 Once again, Thomas Taylor makes it all about him. The other week he's shoving fighters back to their corner full force, now he's stopping fights that are finished. All that kid was obligated to do was find the soles of his feet inside 10. He did!

Daniel Dubios could be the best heavyweight on the planet now.

Felt so bad on young @MichaelGomezJnr tonight. Terrible decision. Being kind to O’Doherty I had it 9-2 with a round even.
