This blog is about all kinds of fighting in the sporting world from UFC, Wrestling, Boxing, documentaries and just videos of the rumble in front of the cameras before the one in the ring.
Now I did not even know about this video until I went looking for it but apparently it shows the only time "The Last Stylebender" got knocked out in a fight.
It looks like some sort of Japanese event, held in a boxing ring. The video is short so I don't know if it's MMA or Kickboxing or even Muay Thai and as I don't speak Japanese I have no idea what the commentators or ringmaster were saying
However, it does show Izzy Israel Adesanya losing another fight, besides his one to Jan Blachowicz at light heavyweight in the UFC.
This fight is obviously outside of the #UFC so his record of 22 wins and 1 loss still stands, however it is interesting to watch a young Izzy in action, especially getting sparked out, as I never knew about this fight before.
Enjoy.
Israel Adesanya Getting Knocked Out
Israel Adesanya v Jan Błachowicz - #UFC259
In the UFC, Izzy also tried to repeat Conor McGregor's success of holding two belts at two different weights when he went up a division to fight Jan Blachowicz at light heavyweight.
However, it didn't look like Izzy had prepared for the fight by gaining weight, and the much stronger and heavier fighter won the day on points.
At least Izzy didn't get knocked out though, unlike the first fight video, as Jan won on points in a unanimous decision at #UFC259.
I did have a video of the full fight for Israel Adesanya v Jan Blachowicz, however, it was someone filming the fight from the audience, so the UFC has taken it down from YouTube, if you were lucky enough to visit this page in the first 2 weeks it was up you could have watched what was a quite decent and steady phone video of the whole fight on this page. Instead, all we have are the official highlights.

I am glad people are starting to put videos up on sites other than YouTube as they get taken down so quickly from that Google-owned streaming site, and for some reason, BT is not putting up the full fight as they used to, even a whole week later. So watch it whilst you can!
UFC 271 - Main Card
Israel Adesanya v Robert Whitaker (fight 2)
After Israel stole Robert's middleweight belt down under he had been on a roll in the UFC undefeated at this weight class.
Izzy did try to go up a division and fight Jan Blachowicz at light heavyweight. However, Israel didn't seem to put much weight on, what is a very thin-framed spindly body, and the heavier fighter won, giving Israel his first loss (20,1) in the UFC.
I thought that maybe this loss might have got into Israel's headspace, having never lost and thinking you are invincible, to only get beaten, it must come as a shock to the system, and who knows what effect it had on him.
However, whatever effect the loss had on his state of mind, Israel Adesanya still managed to come out on top against rival Robert Whittaker at UFC 271.
The duo fought out a tightly contested five-rounder at #UFC271 with the Last Stylebender securing a narrow win on points.
Robert actually thought he had done enough to win and was obviously disappointed with the result, but to gain the crown he really had to do more than he did.
He was the only one of the two who got knocked to the floor in round one, and he didn't manage to cut Israel's face up at all. In fact, quite amazingly Israel was still breathing through his nose and looking unfazed and undazed at the end of round 5.
One good thing though was to see the two congratulate each other and shake hands after the fight. Unlike their first battle, there was little bad mouthing in the run-up and Israel commended Robert on taking time out after his loss and training differently for their re-match, with Robert complimenting Israel as well for having the belt. There were no Conor McGregor like slurs in the build-up to this re-match, unlike their first fight.
Personally, I thought the fight was a bit boring, Israel was very composed, kept out of Robert's range, and managed to defend all of his take-down attempts. Israel kept Robert at bay with kicks and his longer reaching jab that got through Whitaker's guard multiple times.
Robert did attempt a number of take-down attempts but Israel managed to defend them all successfully and there seemed no danger of him getting caught up in some sort of BJJ trap on the floor.
To be honest, compared to their first fight it was a bit of a letdown and it went the whole way, all 5 rounds, and Israel won narrowly on points.
Israel Adesanya v Robert Whitaker - Fight Highlights
You can watch the official highlights below if you don't want to watch the full fight on the video at the top of the page. If you do, scroll to the time 2.15.00 to get to the start of their fight.
BT used to put up the full fight after a week on YouTube, but now all you get are the highlights or someones phone's video from the back of the arena. Why they have changed this I have no idea, but trust me the highlights are all you need to see as there wasn't much exciting action in the bits they don't show.
Derrick Lewis v Tai Tuivasa UFC 271
The co-main event was a heavyweight battle between Derrick Lewis and Tai Tuivasa and to me, this was a much more exciting fight to watch.
There is just something about two heavyweights, belly's out, kicking, and windmilling toe to toe that gives it that edge. With the chance of KO at any time when two men of this size go punch for punch as if boozy Brits outside a pub at closing time.
It was a shock result for me, as I had money on a double for Derick and Israel to both win, but during one tussle Tai managed to elbow Derick in the head and the force was so much it put him to the floor, the ref stepped in and that was game over, shock for the crowd but it was a real slugfest and great to watch.
Full Fight - Derick Lewis v Tai Tuivasa UFC 271
I don't know how long this video will be up for as it's shot from the crowd but it shows you the full fight. So if you want more than the official highlights have a watch. Or watch the main video at the top of the page for the whole card. If you want just the Derick Lewis v Tai Tuivasa fight then scroll to 1.47.00 in that video.
However if this video is taken down, which I fully expect these days, then you can watch the official highlights below from BT. Hopefully, they will get back to putting the full fight up online after a week. If they do I will replace it.
I hope you manage to enjoy the fight from one of these videos, and please let me know in the comments what you thought of the headline event between Israel Adesanya v Robert Whitaker, as well as the Derick Lewis v Tai Tuivasa fight.
So many questions to be answered which you can answer in the comments section.
Will Robert Whitaker ever get to re-gain his middleweight title from Israel Adesanya?
How long can Israel Adesanya go on in the middleweight division without a loss?
Also if The Last Stylebender does get bored with the division, will he want to go up to light heavyweight again?
One thing is for sure, if Izzy does get bored and wanted to go up to light heavyweight again he would surely need to eat a few pies and get some weight on that lean frame of his, otherwise, it will be Jan Blachowicz all over again.
Sean Strickland Continues His Rise In UFC With Split Decision Win
The American fighter continued his rise up the middleweight rankings but apologised for a poor performance, which ended in a split decision.
He was rather tame, keeping his opponent away with his jab and landing some good shots of his own which ended with a bloody face for Jack at the end. He could have gone a bit harder like the last 20 seconds, but he was just showing a cool collected master class of defending punches and takedown attempts.
However, there has been outrage by some at the judge's decision as Strickland looked in control the whole fight.Jack Hermansson his opponent was mostly hitting air all night as Strickland stayed out of his range by inches, and managed to defend against all his takedown attempts.
It was only the last few seconds where the blows were swung, with swearing coming from Strickland aimed at Hermansson, in what could have been an entertaining brawl if it hadn't have come so late.
Here are the current highlights, the full fight will come when released.
Middleweight champion Israel Adesanya was bidding to become the fifth fighter to hold two belts at different weights but he didn't really put any bulk on himself and was the same middleweight fighting in the light heavyweight division against a man with a rock hard punch.
Let's just hope this has dented any confidence in him, everyone loses at some point.....
The last time they met it ended in a draw. This outcome was much disputed as many people thought Fury had out-boxed Wilder despite being knocked to the canvas twice, once in the last round.
However there was no draw this time and the result was a phenomenal win by Tyson Fury who managed to knock a wild swinging Deontay to the floor numerous times before his corner through in the towel in the 7th round. This decision to save their fighter has been talked about a lot, and many fans consider it an outrage, so seemingly does Wilder, who astonishingly thought he was alright to continue.
In my eyes, if he had continued he would have ended up in the hospital or even worse, like Nigel Benn's fight with Gerald McLellan, he could have been seriously injured, maybe even permanently.
From round 3 on, it seemed Wilder was a spent man, swinging wildly with his punches and hopelessly trying to land his right hand bomb on a constantly bobbing and weaving Tyson Fury.
Fury said before the fight he was going to bully Wilder and press on him from the go. Many people, including experts didn't believe that he could but it seemed that the experience from the first fight and the changes Fury had made to negate Wilder's Knockout Right punch seemed to work. Fury had actually changed trainers from his first fight to one specialising in a US fighting style called Kronk. This is where they train with the heat up full and box to bully their opponent and it looked like those tactics worked as Fury went straight at Wilder from the start.
In the clinches he was constantly hitting Wilder, and pressing his body onto him, a heavier mass than Wilder faced before, and a tactic many Wilder fans have claimed was illegal tactics. However this is a boxing match and if you don't play the game you don't win. Boxer's know the score, they are in the ring to win and things happen, they either fight to win, taking every opportunity that comes their way or they lose.
I haven't seen a heavyweight fight where the two boxers don't clinch and punch each other in the body whilst doing so. It's a tool the boxers use and you either do it back or take the punishment until the referee pulls you apart.
Fury was deducted a point at one stage for an illegal hit, but even so he probably still won that round 9 to 8. Wilder seemed to be all over the place, slipping and falling either from Tyson's relentless punches or accidentally. Whether his ear drum were hurt from a punch or not, that may have affected his balance, Wilder just seemed to lack the basic boxing skills to handle Fury.
There was no jab, no good footwork, and Wilder just kept doing what he has done for so long. Attempting to knock out a much better boxer with one strong punch. It didn't work, and in the end his corner had enough and threw the towel in to stop the fight.
There's been a lot of controversy before and after the fight, and you can see some of the arguments below the videos. The walk on by Wilder in a (too heavy), knights suit, behind a rapper singing about black power etc has been seen by many as a way to make the fight racial but the Las Vegas crowd didn't want to play that game. Wilder was met with boos from the crowd during his entrance, whilst a relaxed Fury was carried into the ring on a thrown, as the arena played one of his favourite songs.
Wilder had made comments before the fight about Tyson's struggles with depression and drugs but Fury dismissed them all with his performance and after fight comments about them. He even sang a song in the ring to the crowd and looked very happy to have won the fight.
Watch the official highlights of the fight from BT Sport below.
If this fight between two Heavyweight English Champions, goes ahead, then it should be fought in the UK either at Wembley or the O2 arena.
Why should British fans miss out on the chance to attend a local BIG heavyweight fight that would possibly be the biggest since the fights of Ali n Foreman?
Aside from the fact Saudi Arabia is a nut job country, that cuts heads off people and jails and publicly whips victims of rape, the fight to unify the belts is a good idea. There are far too many belts out there in my opinion and they should unify them all, then scrap all but one, leaving just one heavyweight champion out there for all contenders to face.
No contract disputes and people avoiding certain belt holders to go after one particular belt and not fight another fighter as we saw with AJ's attempts to find an opponent recently. WBO, WBC, IBF, IBO, etc, etc...what would the heavyweight division look like with just one belt and everyone having to fight for a place to contend for it?
It may just be a dream, however and if Fury can skip the 3rd fight with Wilder that hes contractually obliged to fight, to face AJ for his 3 belts, then it would just be as if one belt existed, for a time anyway. Whether Deontay Wilder will take a payout to miss the 3rd fight and then possibly fight AJ or Fury, for the whole lot I don't know, but it's what Fury's camp want to happen.
There is also talk of Fury retiring after winning the fight with AJ and then one defence of his unified champion status. Whether Wilder would be the person he faced if he won against AJ I don't know and it seems like a contractual nightmare could be debated and argued for some time before Fury's next opponent is settled upon.

Full Fight Fury v Wilder 2
I have been on Facebook a lot in the boxing groups since the fight and it does seem to be a lot of pissed off Wilder fans making excuses for their idols loss. That is despite Wilder's own excuse that the costume he wore on the walk out into the arena was too heavy and he was drained before the fight.
This is despite comments he made on Joe Rogan's podcast that he trained with a much heavier weight around him before a big fight, therefore I don't know how he can say the weight of a small child during the walk on prevented him from fighting. He must be a very unfit fighter if that is the case!
It seems that the list of excuses include:
Tyson cheating by clinching and pushing his heavy body onto the smaller framed Wilder
Tyson cheating by rabbit punching Wilder in the clinches
Tyson cheating by flicking Wilder with his glove
Tyson cheating by tampering with his glove, all due to the CCTV being switched off in his changing room before the fight at one time.
Tyson cheating by hitting Wilder behind the head.
Wilder being okay, and it was his corner that lost the fight for him but he was standing so could continue.....all the way to the hospital in my opinion!
Wilder taking an illegal shot to the back of his head on his ear which ruptured his ear drum causing the lack of balance and numerous falls we saw from him.
Wilder having a bad training camp.
Wilder just being Wilder basically and a lot of people's hero it seems and he can do no wrong.
Some racist comments against White/English boxers.
Plus a load more too stupid to mention.
What do you think, should Wilder take the contract for a third fight with Fury now, or take the wait clause that Fury wants so he can fight Anthony Joshua first.
Also let me know any comments about the walk on's, the pre-fight chat, the actual fight and any excuses you haven't heard for Wilder's poor performance.
Also if you are English, do you want the fight to be held in Saudi Arabia or should it be held at home so we can all attend?
Conor McGregor Defeats Donald Cowboy Cerrone in 40 seconds at UFC 246
Like many UK MMA fans I stayed up all night to watch the main event at UFC 246 last weekend.
With the headline fight being fought around 5.30 AM UK time I didn't get to bed until 6am and with BT Sport changing their programming to charge PPV prices to customers.
I spoke to a woman at BT and asked her why they were now charging for UFC when up until now it had always been free to customers.
We are only going to charge for "Big Fights" she said over the phone. What constitutes a "Big Fight" to BT though?
The headline event at UFC was Conor McGregors comeback against Donald Cowboy Cerrone, and whilst it was a much anticipated event, it wasn't a title fight, and whilst the prelims were free to watch, the 4 fights on the main card weren't, and no belts were up to win.
So unlike many boxing events when UK TV channels only charge PPV for a title fight it seems BT might start charging for all future UFC events. If that is the case I might have to reconsider my BT Sport subscription as free UFC fights were one of the attractions for me to join BT, one of the good things about BT sport apart from their European Football and Premiership games.
I would have been pretty pissed off if I had paid considering the fight only lasted 40 seconds, and the other main fights weren't as good as some of the prelims, with the Holly Holms fight consisting of a really wound up Holly pacing the Octagon before and in-between rounds, then spending much of the fight against the fence in a clinch. Like the booing crowd I cannot be the only person who is upset at this change at BT Sports and I am pretty glad I used another free stream to show the main card to me.
Conor McGregor demolishes Donald Cowboy Cerrone
The main event whilst short was a spectacular quick destruction of the all time highest winner by head kicks, but unfortunately was over so quick, Cerrone didn't even get to throw a punch and only one kick. I was hoping the Cowboy would be able to provide a good stand up fight between two kick-boxers, a spectacle I find much more exciting to watch than a fight consisting of sparse stand up and full of BJJ. Although technical and complex finishes and locks are involved I just prefer stand up than floor fights.
The fight between Conor and Donald was so quick I think I can describe the 40 seconds from memory in-case the videos are taken down by YouTube.
Straight off in round 1 Conor ran out to meet Donald and threw a left hook that Donald ducked and they ended up in a clinch.
Conor then used a move I had never seen, neither it seems had Joe Rogan or the other commentators as he used the clinch to jump up and down repeatedly throwing his shoulder into Donald's nose, smashing it open.
They then broke apart and Donald threw a right kick to Conor's body before McGregor responded with his own left kick to the head of the Cowboy.
As Donald fell back stunned, Conor followed up with a left knee to his head that pushed Cerrone to the fence and Conor jumped on him with a flurry of punches taking him to the floor, where he jumped on top of him and hammered his head with his fists before the fight was stopped.
The doctors rushed in and had to tend to the Cowboy after the hammering to his head smashed his face in by both Conor's shoulder, kick, knee and fists.
Watch Conor McGregor Full Fight against Donald Cowboy Cerrone
The original video of the fight from a crowd member got taken down but it doesn't matter as finally BT have put up a full fight video for us to watch. I guess they have realised anyone who wanted to watch the fight would have done so by now. Anyway this is the full fight from walk in
UFC 246 Highlights
If you just want to see the Conor v Cowboy highlights scroll to 4 minutes 29 seconds, not that you can really show just highlights from a 40
second event. The only thing missing is the violent finishing of Donald
on the ground after Conors kick to his head.
The Big News
Although Conor had just delivered a complete perfect quick win over Donald who had to have the doctors attend him for a while after the stoppage, it seemed that the big news to McGregor was not the win but his new sized bottles of Whisky.
You can watch the post fight interview with Joe Rogan here.
The arrogance of the 31 year old is so complete, I cannot believe he used his interview with Joe Rogan to advertise his goods.
"That's the big news", he actually said after talking about his Whisky.
Not the fact he had won fights at 3 weight levels, or the fact he had just won a fight in 40 seconds, or defeated the all time finisher by head kicks with a head kick, but his new Whisky bottles.
I wonder what Joe thought of that, if anyone knows please comment, as I thought it was just rude and disrespectful to his opponent to say that in his interview.
Holly Holms beats Raquel Pennington at UFC 246
The other main event on the card was the women's fight between Holly Holm and Raquel Pennington. I was expecting Rachel to do much better than she did against Holly and it seemed she ran out of ideas very quickly.
The original video was taken down and it seems there are loads of animated videos with cartoon like fighters in the ring replicating the moves on YouTube. Very odd to watch but I guess it's a way of getting round showing the real fight and being removed, however this video is the full fight with real people.
Holly Holms v Rachquel Pennington - Fight Highlights UFC 246
Post Fight Interview With Holly Holms and Joe Rogan
There was little stand up action and lots of clinches against the fence during the fight,
which didn't really excite me or the crowd. I even heard boos at one point, and this was the co-headline event, another reason I am angry at BT Sports for charging PPV for non title belt fights.
Holly actually apologised in her post fight interview with Joe Rogan
about the lack of stand up combat afterwards and said she was disappointed that she couldn't
provide more action. You can watch her interview with Joe below.
Let me know what you thought of UFC 246, Conors 40 second win, his "big news" about his Whisky, BT Sports charging PPV for the main card, and anything else....
I am so glad I didn't waste the £25.99 Sky Box Office were charging to watch the rematch of AJ and Andy Ruiz Jr in the desert on Saturday night. There are so many free streaming services and apps out there that you can just put on your phone and mirror to your TV you don't need to until the FBI shuts them down.
The only saving grace to the 12 rounds of AJ circle Andy Ruiz Jr with jabs all night was that it was before 12pm and I didn't have to pay to suffer to watch it.
The fight basically consisted of 12 rounds of a very in shape and seemingly giant Anthony Joshua circle a flat footed and very overweight Andy Ruiz Jr, who had obviously been training at McDonald's since the last fight, with jabs all night.
It was (as some called it), a display of artful boxing. I suppose it was in that AJ knew if he got too close to Ruiz one punch to his glass chin could put him down like the 4 times he hit the canvas in Madison Gardens. So to ensure Ruiz couldn't get close enough to him, he used his longer reach and his jab. Plus the fact Ruiz couldn't get close due to his unfitness we didn't even get to see one flurry of a tear up.
No close contact jabs going back and forth and upper cuts, ducks, weaves and bobs. It was literally AJ circling Ruiz all night with jabs to his face.
He won on points of course and got his belts back. Then Ruiz came over and interrupted his interview to invite himself to another match up. I don't think I would even bother to find a free way to watch that fight.
What I want to see is one heavyweight belt for everyone to fight for. AJ may have "unified" 4 belts but Detony Wilder and Tyson Fury are ignoring the opportunity to take them off him and Wilder seems happy with his WBC belt.
Why won't Wilder fight AJ?
He obviously has a chin ripe for the "bomb squad" as Wilder likes to boom down a mic after knocking someone out who looked like beating him all night. So why doesn't Wilder and AJ meet for a proper unification of the belts and then we can see if AJ has the boxing skills to take on someone with equal fitness and strength in the ring.
Let's just hope it's not in Saudi Arabia if you have any morals.
It's a boxing blog so I shouldn't really go there but if no-one mentions it then we all live in ignorance.
Well we have been letting the country cut peoples heads and other limbs off after Friday prayers for decades now. We've got to have that black gold and of course our Arms Industry is a "national interest" according to Tony Blair when BAE bribed some princes to sell weapons to our "ally".
Lets forget about all that, they are just a country in the process of modernising from the 7th century. However to listen to Antony Joshua praise Saudi Arabia multiple times after the fight made my stomach turn just a bit.
So who cares what this backward country tries to do to improve their image as long as we get to see Muslim boxers like Amir Khan and AJ choose to fight in the desert before midnight for once so we don't all waste our time and money.
Forget the beheadings and public lashing of rape victims. We get to see some boring boxing now Saudi Arabia has entered the game.
Watch the full fight here, the rematch between Andy Ruiz Jr and Anthony Joshua (before YouTube removes it of course - excuse the foreign commentary but you don't really need it)
FULL FIGHT - AJ v Andy Ruiz Jr - REMATCH
And if you just want to see the highlights in case the full fight goes then....
HIGHLIGHTS - AJ v Andy Ruiz Jr - REMATCH
Tell me what you think about the night.
Write anything you want in the comments whether it was about the £25.99 PPV price for such a boring fight, Andy Ruiz Jr not getting himself into shape before the fight, the tactics of AJ to just circle and jab or about Saudi Arabian princes going off to Dubai for some non Islamic fun with prostitutes, alcohol and drugs.
Saudi Arabia holds the rematch, as Anthony Joshua attempts to regain his belts!
The first meeting of Anthony Joshua and Andy Ruiz Jr happened at Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York, U.S on June 1, 2019.
Other "better" fighters such as Detony Wilder, Tyson Fury and Jarrell Miller who was disqualified due to failing 3 drug tests all passed up the chance to grab AJ's collection of Heavyweight belts.
He held a unified list of heavyweight belts, the WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO. Why wouldn't a fighter like Detony Wilder who only holds a seemingly lesser ranked WBC belt want the chance to take them all of AJ?
I have no idea and there are lots of conspiracy talks in the boxing forums on social media but AJ did not expect to lose to Andy Ruiz by TKO in the seventh round,ending Anthony Joshua's undefeated record and becoming the new unified heavyweight champion.
People have even compared it to fights such as Mike Tyson v Buster Douglas in 1990 and Lennox Lewis v Hasim Rahman in 2001.
The only other belt out there that really matters is the WBC held by the super puncher, Detony Wilder, who drew with Tyson Fury after knocking him down twice, and a recent win over Luis Ortiz, 10 years his elder, and although looking unfit seemed to be inside Wilders head with his two step jab technique. Until blam, Wilder got a clean straight right hand bomb on Luis that ended the fight straight away.
Why are there all these belts I think this video might help but personally I think there should only be one belt, one heavyweight champion of the world and not 5+ belts out there with the possibility of 5+ people calling themselves heavyweight champions.
Now what will happen in the rematch which for the 1st time is being held earlier in the day with the big fight around 9pm and shown on Sky Box Office, with probably a pass on BT to watch as well. Although there are tons of online streaming services and apps that will allow you to watch the fight for free if you can find them.
If AJ is capable of handling bombs on his chin better than before then he stands a good chance but if during his loss Ruiz floored AJ 4 times and I can see no reason why he can't be capable of doing it again tomorrow night.
What do you think?
Does AJ stand a chance of getting his 4 belts back?
Or will Andy Ruiz land him on the canvas multiple times again.
Here is a build up video for the rematch.
Let me know in the comments who you think will win?
Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz go to war - and a guest appearance from the Rock!
#UFC244 was a dramatic New York UFC fight as always. The "Dog" Nate Diaz went to war with Jorge Masvidal for the BMF title at Madison Square Gardens and it was a great show of skills from both fighters.
Nate showed what a hard fighter he was taking blows and giving them straight back. Even Masvidal called Nate a "Dog" after the fight was suddenly stopped by a doctor due to bad cut on Nate's face that was incurred during the early rounds.
However it wasn't bleeding and their cut man had done a good job in preventing it spilling blood everywhere over the Octagon.
Nate was obviously disappointed and demanded a rematch straight away from Dana White and it will probably happen soon as Nate OR Jorge couldn't believe the fight was stopped over a cut, especially one in which we have seen much worse during UFC battles.
If you didn't get to see the action then here it is.
The full fight between Jorge Masvidal and Nate Diaz at #UFC244.
Did you see the guest appearance at the end who put the belt on Jorge?
Yes I didn't believe my eyes at first but it was indeed Dwayne Johnson, or the Rock. Hanging about in the background until he could put the belt on the winner by TKO Jorge Masvidal.
What do you think?
Should the fight have been stopped due to the cut, have you seen worse injuries and a fight continue or should it have been stopped earlier. Personally the worst injury I ever saw in the UFC was Anderson Silva breaking his leg in his 2nd fight with Chris Weidman. What was yours?
Did Amir Khan Quit During The Terence Crawford Fight
Amir Khan talks here about the constant low blows he received from Terence Crawford during the fight he had to quit during a low blow punch to the groin.
What do you think?
Did he quit or did the low blows from a cheat (if true), stop the fight?
The big fight at the weekend was between Tyson Fury and Otto Wallin. Hoping to retain his title and hopefully get another chance to fight Detonay Wilder, Tyson managed to win on points despite suffering a nasty gash during the fight.
Again I was hoping for a British boxer to get a KO against his opponent but I am happy making money all year by betting on a Points or Decision finish in these fights.
For this fight it was 3/1 for Tyson to win on points.
Tyson Fury v Otto Wallin - Full Fight
You can see Tyson's comments after the fight here.
What did you think about the fight?
Was Tyson Fury hampered by the cut and lucky to win or were you expecting another points decision?
The Fight Between Amir Khan versus Terence Crawford
The fight between Amir Khan and Terence Crawford was a bit of a letdown as it ended with Khan throwing in the towel after a very heavy low blow to Khans lower regions.
Some people are saying he took the easy option to get out of the fight as he knew he was going to lose to Crawford who was outboxing him easily in New York'sMadison Square Gardens arena.
Others would disagree as it was a bit of a low way to win a fight with an illegal punch. Khan could have taken the 5 minutes allowed before deciding to carry on or not but he immediately indicated to his team that he couldn't and Crawford won by default.
I bet the fans who paid to watch the fight in New York or on Pay Per View felt pretty let down to see the headline fight end with such an ending.
Amir Khan v Terence Crawford - Full Fight
Let me know what you think about the way it ended.
Did Amir Khan throw in the towel due to real pain which is perfectly possible, or should he have waited the 5 minutes allowed before deciding?
Surely Crawford would have had a point deducted for that whack to Khans lower region and Khan could have carried on and at least fought to the end.
Yesterday we gave you the best highlights from upcoming opponent Anthony Joshua's career so far and with his massive fight with Wladimir Klitschkoto about to go ahead I thought I would show you his top KO's.
So to be fair I thought I should show you Anthony Joshua's opposition in action and he aint no puppy dog either.
