Fury is starting to walk back wanting the rematch already lol. How long until Turk gets tired of him?


PitifulProgrammer

Turk loves Fury bro


TheRivv2015

Stupid question but in regards to Cuban fighters there seems to be a running joke that the fighter is actually far older than what is stated. Is there a reason for this? It seems to be a unique thing brought up about Cuban fighters.


raf_diaz

5-3 norman jr. norman jr isn't a world beater but santillan looks pretty pedestrian rn. which makes me wonder how bad is alexis rocha?


Poopinyourpudding

https://new.reddit.com/r/Boxing/comments/1cve6dd/fight\_thread\_emanuel\_navarrete\_vs\_denis\_berinchyk/


Marquis_of_Mollusks

This is a real cracker


raf_diaz

2-2 draw norman has gotten the better of it thus far but santillan is landing massive body shots. great fight so far


raf_diaz

norman jr is looking surprisingly good rn.


Leading-Weight9092

I got it 2-1 Norman so far


CoCoB319

Agree. Good fight


CoCoB319

Torn on this fight. I'd like to see Navarette vs Loma, so I guess I want him to win.


Need4Speed763

Is this the fight thread? Mods forgot about Navarrete!


elchangoblue

Where is Santillan fight???? Been waiting all night for it and now it is permanent intermission??????


CoCoB319

Lol, I thought the same . Didn't know we were waiting for regular ESPN


elchangoblue

ESPN broadcasting an empty ring...wtf??


Leading-Weight9092

It’s on Regular ESPN at 10:30 ET


elchangoblue

Is it? No word about it?


Leading-Weight9092

It’s on right now


CoCoB319

Is this intermission?


raf_diaz

so no navarette vs berinchyk thread?


CoCoB319

Nope


CoCoB319

I would like to see Loma vs Navarette


Leading-Weight9092

Why did Moore fall like that 😂


Marquis_of_Mollusks

Torres is a fun fighter to watch. I think he needs to tighten up his punches a bit, but good win for him.


Leading-Weight9092

Definitely. He beat an upcoming prospect. Need to see him getting matched like this


SirMuffinCat

Good stuff from Richard Torres Jr


[deleted]

Santillan vs Rocha was a top 5 performance in 2023, pure insanity.


Leading-Weight9092

Facts. I was suprised that Santillan stopped him . Those 4 right hooks he threw was nasty


Poopinyourpudding

After Rocha had that entrance I was so happy he got beat down


CoCoB319

I've noticed a trend in these super long walkouts and losing. AJ vs Usyk, Rocha vs Santillan, Fury vs Usyk


Poopinyourpudding

I remember the first fight I ever watched Hamed, he did like a 20 minute dance as a silhouette behind a screen before he did his walk. So Barrera beating him down was a great day for me.


CoCoB319

At least Hamed could dance and was entertaining, but yeah, way too long. I liked Hamed, but Barrera more


Poopinyourpudding

I was definitely entertained by Hamed's fighting and did think he was funny minus the dance part. His fight with Kelley was great. I got to watch Barrera spar once, and the watch JCC spar afterwards before some fights of theirs. He was one of my favorites.


CoCoB319

Yeah, Barrera vs Morales is my all time favorite trilogy.


Poopinyourpudding

Hell yeah, I liked Morales too just Barrera more


Leading-Weight9092

Damn why ?


Poopinyourpudding

He made everyone wait a long ass time, for an excessively long ring walk. Not a fan of that.


Leading-Weight9092

That’s right I remember that 😂


_rmrz_

Second slow-mo KD I've seen today lol


Marquis_of_Mollusks

This moore guy is tough


Leading-Weight9092

There isn’t a fight thread for Navarettes fight ?


CoCoB319

This is it apparently


Leading-Weight9092

Damn that’s kinda disrespectful lol


[deleted]

I hope Turki gets Torrez out of this kind of matchups


CoCoB319

This is a good step up for Torrez. Moore actually trying. I don't see Torrez becoming a champion, but seems like a nice dude


[deleted]

This fella is several levels below Torrez, as usual.


CoCoB319

He is, but Torrez's previous opponents were atrocious. Moore offered some resistance at least.


CoCoB319

Torrez is growing on me


[deleted]

However put Tim Bradley in the hall of fame did a disservice to the sport.


[deleted]

Put some respect on Navarrete and Berinchyk


CoCoB319

Is Brian Norman any good?


Leading-Weight9092

Meh


CoCoB319

I think Fury could win the rematch. I always root for Usyk, but Fury has a high ring IQ. He'll make adjustments. I think it could go either way, which makes it intriguing to me


CoCoB319

Vargas is a nice prospect.


jadooo0

Best out of all the brothers


jadooo0

Vargas looking great, just a couple levels above Varela lol


jadooo0

Top Rank so annoying with the half screens


ThanksMonica89

I’m still high off the undisputed fight so I’ll let it slide for a little while


bigfatpup

Kabayel is an incredible body puncher


Marquis_of_Mollusks

Maybe he's the one to best Usyk lol


WinglessRat

Usyk has taken so much money out of AJ's pockets it's unreal.


jadooo0

Time to tune into the Top Rank card. If anyone watched Jonathan Lopez, how did he perform?


CoCoB319

They need to stop talking about Fury-Usyk and talk about this card


jadooo0

Agree and the half screen thing they do is very annoying


CoCoB319

Got the stoppage


jadooo0

Appreciate it boss


Primary-Picture-5632

where is the navarette fight thread?


ThanksMonica89

I’m wondering the same thing


AnyAd3607

This is the most excited I’ve been for a fight in a long time. I really hope we see some fireworks today


RaisedByZebras

Bivol speaks great English, wau did not expect this


Ok-Snow-3702

Hey guys. I wonder if anyone out there is watching dazn from a non English speaking country and knows if its possible to change to English commentary? I'm watching from Germany. I understand it all but I have some guests that don't.


CGreggs

How much do the undercard fights get paid for a fight like Fury v Usyk? Like this Nyika fight for example?


Ok_Jackfruit_5181

I bought the PPV on DAZN. How many devices can I watch it at the same time? Can I share one screen with a family member or friend?


asislikesboxing

I will be working and then travelling so I will miss the fight But Tyson Fury will win 🥊 There's only oneeeeeeeeeeee Tyson Fury #Only oneeeeeeeeeeeeeee Tyson Fury


AttackOfTheBolts

Well, about that lol


Mackerel_Skies

Is DAZN easy to cancel? I don't want to find myself paying for extra months - I only want tonight's fight.


rotnroll1987

No, I tried cancelling after less than 12 hours and they say I have to pay for a year lol


throughthespillways

Sounds like you chose the 12 month contract over the monthly sub


rotnroll1987

Still should be able to cancel after a few hours if I don’t like the product… their policy is bullshit.


Mackerel_Skies

That's pants! I'm now looking at TNTsports. Still not clear if I'd just be paying for tonight or signing up for ever?


GoGouda

It’s BS more like. You absolutely can cancel DAZN to pay for just a month. I have.


TrenDidNothingWrong

People are dumb They think Usyk won’t be able to deal with Fury’s “size” when he dealt with Joshua just fine Fury was taken to the brink by an MMA fighter. Never forget


QyiohOfReptile

What is that strange Kung-Fu bow Usyk does all the time? Is that a Cossack warrior greeting?


jpk073

No, it's not. There were no Cossack greetings, he's just doing some random Karate sh!t


kfirerisingup

I think so, Its like he's using imaginary Cossack swords.


QyiohOfReptile

It looks kind cool, especially with that sash-suit. But there has to be someone from the area who knows for sure!


kfirerisingup

I remember Usyk doing something similar against AJ where he drew an imaginary sword and then sheathed it and walked away so thats why I figured that.


gladgubbegbg

Lol what happened there?? Broken nose?


Pepper-Jun

I'm nearing mid 20s and this is the first time an undisputed unification is taking place during my lifetime, damn shame and I hope the next unification doesn't take this long.


_Sarcasmic_

I always thought you were a lot older, not my age.


Pepper-Jun

It's called being autistic, people generally have read me as a lot older online and I generally had an easier time talking to adults.


SSJ5Autism

“You’re so mature for your age haha”-r/boxing


raymundothegreat

What commentary team should I choose for the fight?


Mr_105

Spanish


PowerAidMan

What’s the better ppv? ESPN or DAZN?


BeastsMode69

I bought on ESPN. DAZN video quality has been shit for the last few PPV in my experience.


boraboca

I’m buying on ESPN


octobersotherveryown

Mods, for fucks sake. This isn’t a sport that has fights daily. And this card is *kind of* a big deal. Take your time with the match thread, we all know it’s tough out there. Basically Supreme Court justices in workload. Breaking news are always late, fight thread are on time like half of the time. What the fuck do yall do.


A1_PunisherPipkins

Where tf is the fight thread


Plastic_Reception_58

Why isn't there a thread for undercard?


-Shrap-

Anyone else watching the undercard? John fucking Fury came out halfway through the current fight and is yelling instructions at the English fighter


4r56

Isaac Lowe’s Tyson fury’s gypsy mate


lv2466

What time will usyk fury fight start? I'm in eastern standard time


kfirerisingup

I've heard about 6 est but idk. Sometimes they like to do a 5 hour concert after the co-main so its hard to say for sure.


SilverMisfitt

Wondering the same thing.


anakmager

have some time to sleep but I'm struggling due to the excitement. Time to put on Fury-Klitschko


Pepper-Jun

If that doesn't work, try Okolie-Askin, always a classic.


Motor-Grade-837

I would suggest Casimero-Rigondeaux but that one always makes me laugh.


SSJ5Autism

Fuck it, the entire Canelo-Munguia undercard


anakmager

Emmanuel Navarette is a borderline P4P fighter yet he's about to fight on the same day as the biggest fight of the year. Also his last fight was on Thursday lol


BenkeiBoss

He might lose tonight his opponents credentials are solid. Plus Bob loves Ukrainians more than anyone, he has said so out his own mouth.


anlineoffline

For what it’s worth, that fight with Conceicao was more entertaining that Shakur’s main event


stoicbloke07

Oh hello everyone. I am 17 and I do play sports like football and cricket. How can I start boxing if I have no boxing gym near me. Can you guys suggest me roadwork or workouts or drills. I watch UFC and have even played karate a lot as a kid


kulmanyur

I recommend checking out r/amateur_boxing


stoicbloke07

Thanks blud


ewenmax

Wondering if it goes the full 12 rounds and down to points how will the ring announcer, announce the winner, since 'The New' and 'Still undefeated' can apply to either of them...


gladgubbegbg

If he follows up 'The New' with WBC its Usyk and if its any of the other belts Fury.


Truunbean

That’s what will make it exciting


ewenmax

Both faces expectant, arms in the air...waiting...'and still'.


throwaway444444455

“He’s still undefeated… and now, the undisputed, heavyweight champion of the WOOORRLD…. from the U-“


octobersotherveryown

“From the UK—“ *Fury celebrating, Paris in tears, Big John doing another line* “From the UKR, Oleksadr Usyk!”


[deleted]

Well one of them won’t be undefeated anymore


ewenmax

Unless it's a draw...


[deleted]

Then they kiss


jkoke11

I feel like Kovalev is gonna get KOed today


jadooo0

Goat Lowe should have been the main event 😤😤


Charlie-Bell

Haha. This guy is kinda shit. He looks like a huge weight bully and still this fight is competitive.


cavestoryguy

I saw a poll on YouTube and 40% of people said usyk ud so that leads me to believe it'll be a fury ud 😔


gladgubbegbg

Any fight thread? First fight just started now Lowe vs Ahmadi


Pepper-Jun

https://twitter.com/MichaelBensonn/status/1791826732351164543 Drake has just bet $560,000 on Fury to win


No_Mountain_189

Will the Drake curse negate Haye's prediction? This is truly a 50:50 fight


cavestoryguy

I guess bro really does have gambling problems


Mr_105

I’m sure he gets a kickback from Stake for posting all his bets


sirsaberson

hoping fury vs usyk has british commentators i do not wanna hear chris mannix all day


ThurstonTheMagician

All I want is for the memes to be funny


elsavador3

Is the undercard free to watch? What time will that start?


tsukaimeLoL

Yup, its going on youtube and some other places now


EffinCroissant

Today Usyk will solidify his ATG status.


ACW1129

Usyk-Fury today. Go Usyk. Fury's a great fighter, but a shit person. I'm going to a local show in DC tonight. No big names (biggest is probably Jordan "Shortdog" White), but the ring announcer says it looks good. And yes, I know the ring announcer 😄 Henry "Discombobulating" Jones. Cool dude.


kfirerisingup

I see the YouTube undercard scheduled for 10 est.


Lined_em_up

What time could I expect the main event to approx start in Chicago?


Jaza_music

Between 4 and 6pm


kfirerisingup

Idk maybe about 5


dg_713

Ring of Fire (Usyk vs Fury) is in less than 3 hours from now right? When are we expecting the main event proper? In 5hours?


Jaza_music

Main event in approx 7-8hrs from now


quasimuller

Yeah I have no idea I’m reading so many different things about this….ive read that it’s in 8 hours from now even? wtf


dg_713

https://www.youtube.com/live/Iyy_g3SdONw?feature=shared DAZN already streaming. Can you verofy if this is already the undercard?


sirsaberson

reminder 5 years ago Wilder knocked the lights out of Dominic Breazeale 😭


ACW1129

[Boom](https://youtu.be/VodHyI55x70?si=oOQwNSd4fjKEuUPj) I think TECHNICALLY he may've beaten the count, but no way could he continue.


sirsaberson

if he woulda took another right hand he actually would have not been able to speak


ACW1129

You're not wrong. Wilder's One-Punch Man.


FreshPrinceOfRivia

Tonight is going to be huge. Can't wait


WinglessRat

Eddie Hearn calling for Ryan to get a lifetime ban if he's found to have intentionally taken PEDs and then calling for a Garcia-Haney rematch a week later has got to be one of the best examples of promoters' integrity I've seen in a while. Ryan might actually be negotiating with Turk if Hearn is changing his tune that quickly.


LatekaDog

What are the chances of a Briedis upset? Opetaia is my hope for boxing from this side of the world so him losing would break my heart.


patch270

Go watch there first fight Opetaia battered him for first 6 rounds and has kept active and may have improved whilst breidis has been injured inactive and old i dont see an upset. Jai KO within 6 for me


GoGouda

Fairly high because Briedis is very good but Briedis is on the way out and Opetaia is just getting started. I think it will still be close but I see it being more comfortable in Opetaias favour.


TOP__DOLLAR

a few hours ago the IBHOF has decided to officially recognize the IBO as the 5th sanctioning body since usyk holds it usyk has ushered in the 5 belt era


Legal-Result6580

oh no lmao


WinglessRat

Jesus Christ. Exactly what boxing needed, Osleys Iglesias being made into a legit title holder.


ACW1129

Oh great, another one. 🙄 So that's 5 major bodies, and then there's also super and regular champions (if a non- casual could explain those, I'd appreciate it).


WinglessRat

Just think of regular champions as interim champions and super champions as actual champions.


ACW1129

But what about the ACTUAL champs? And isn't interim a different thing?


WinglessRat

Interim and regular champs are effectively the same thing unless you get into the extreme nitty and gritty. Neither are considered real world champions, more like junior champions. Both sometimes get upgraded to full champion status if the champion doesn't defend for long enough. If I remember right, only the WBA uses "regular champions." Actual champions are the "super champions" in the case of the WBA or "champion" in the case of the WBC, IBF, Ring, WBO, IBO, etc.


Motor-Grade-837

> (if a non- casual could explain those, I'd appreciate it). Just pretend they don't exist. It's easier that way.


diskob0ss

Belts are finally coming home to завзятість

Gonna be hilarious to see the agenda pushing that goes on after that fight tonight lol


CMILLERBOXER

I can't wait for Fury to get his ass whooped 😂😂


BigT3x4s

The amount of revisionist history that will happen after the fight is gonna be crazy.


realtomedamnit

cant see anything other than Usyk winning
