Smells like a fishing harbour... Let's see if there's a rematch.

[Yiliterate]

Reportedly, Braemer dislocated his right elbow; Sauerland very confident the re-match clause will be triggered.

Just remembered that we've got Frank Bruno coming in to our office at lunchtime today to give a talk, in conjunction with World Mental Health Day. Should be good.

From Dyson Furry's Twitter account....

'Boxing is the saddest thing I ever took part in, all a pile of st, I'm the greatest, & I'm also retired, so go suck a dick, happy days'

Joshua vs Kitshco for belts now?

[Vocal Minority]

Congratulations - you are the self proclaimed greatest at something that is the saddest thing you ever did.

It's like a child saying 'well I didn't want to join your club anyway' - what a bell end.

It's only a pity he will ps off playing the victim.

According to the BBC R4 news report just now then TF has retired from boxing!

[tuscaneer]

how to get out of a rematch you know you'll lose because you lucked out and caught the champ on his worst night??.......shove a load of beak up your nose and blame the press for your mental health issues...yay!!

Give it 4 months- drugs out of his system-oh i'm better now. He should get a 4 yr ban as it stands

Cocaine masks reality seemingly.

I still reckon Fury is massively talented but I guess the reality is that to be a champion boxer you need a heck of a lot more than physical attributes and raw talent. A decent level of education and some people around you who aren't jail birds and drug dealers might help. I'm a bit upset with the constant use of the phrase "mental health issues" as well when it does appear there's every chance the fella is just a massive dick.

They do say you should never trust our friends in the travelling community.

Guys , if your bored in work or get 5 minutes go onto youtube and watch some videos of Diego De La Hoya. I have been following him for a few years and he is quickly becoming my favourite fighter. Seems very powerful for such a small boxer and is 16-0 at the age of 22.

Bad form quoting oneself but he was very open about his childhood and his more recent issues and was genuinely engaging.

Reckoned that the biggest hit he ever took was from the taxman

Heard the name, obviously, but just assumed all the high praise from Oscar was family loyalty. Saw him for the first time on the canelo/smith undercard....looks a great talent

Nice one, they do say "never meet you're heroes" I think that red suit might be the reason why.

I'll forgive the headset....no problem....as long as I get a pass for falling asleep in front of the telly in my star wars pyjama pants then having the little'un grab my phone and capture the moment for posterity.....but that was about as long as I could stand it!

[pincher]

Woody, get back in your box!

[tuscaneer]

Quite good compositional sympathy for a 4 year old!.... it's like she could just sense the shot needed a focal point in the foreground
