Let's hope this goes some rounds. If he does beat him easily then it has be Haye next? Can't keep fighting no hopers and avoid the big guns

Great card from Hearn. Well worth the £17.

I remember Tyson Fury saying the next big drugs scandal will be from boxing - I know Joshua spends a lot of time in the gym but those punches..

Not sure a Tyson Fury quote can be given too much weight, perhaps bantam?

This opponent is game, hats off to him/

Fair play to that guy. Stuck around, took some big hits, but offered little going forward. Who next?

I don't see anyone with a body like Joshua's other than pro wrestlers and MMA fighters who have been suspended for drug abuses. His power punches are unreal - even when his opponent has his guard up. Never seen anyone like him in heavyweight boxing, other than maybe Henry Cooper?

Other than in their popularity, what other similarities are you seeing between Joshua and Cooper?

I have spent the last 15 minutes looking for some kind of post fight interview from Breazeale but I cant find anything.

So he's not overly impressed with Joshua's right hand, the jab is his real weapon he reckons.

well....thurman/porter was a fking belter!!!

I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE CROWD BOOING THE DECISION..!!!! thurman a close but clear winner for me.


don't know what to make of the fury positive drug test........he's known there were irregularities since september by the looks of it. the recent postponement of the rematch is almost certainly to do with this i think.

what happens now??!!


if it's deemed serious enough will he be stripped like the browne/chagaev case? interestingly if they call the last fight a n/c and hand the belts back there is the issue of the IBF. in that scenario joshua would have to fight klitschko. eddie hearn has already stated that they would most likely have to go that route should fury have to face a ban.

what a fking mess....

I'm no biologist or endocrinologist, but... How are the "normal" levels of these hormones and stuff calculated, it stands to reason that a huge guy like Fury will have more of most things than a normal person and added to his pretty extreme on/off training regime would lead to hormonal highs and lows, right? That said its a bit weird Hughies been done as well, and I cant vouch for their moral standing on things given, you know some of the pasts of those around them.

I'm a bit gutted to be honest, I'd invested in Fury, started to even like the knob.
