For a few years, the World Boxing Super Series was universally lauded by fans, fighters and media as boxing utopia (best v best; 10pm main events!). Then, it was quietly fucked off, barely spoken of again, and those involved pivoted to a weird, obnoxious boxing derivative.

Someone should, I think, have a quiet word with the newer MCs on how to announce judges' scorecards the correct way when verdict is a split or majority. A few kind words would do it, no need to make anyone feel bad about anything.


Alright Adam, you did great yesterday. Now put a sock in it.

I have to mute these annoying commentaries.

Was watching a 1960s fight the other day. Don Dunphy's style of restrained, minimalist, low-key commentary will never, ever be heard again. That style of commentary isn't what producers want today.


WBO Deserterweight champ.


Fair play Adam Smith. Good job.

🥊 Dave Allen faces the Russian David Price

🇺🇸 Boots Ennis makes his debut at 154.

Seems like Devin isn’t his friend after all. Coincidentally when he’s no longer financially invested.

Ian Darke talking so well on Sky News at Hatton’s funeral. Boxing misses Darke so much, but frankly doesn’t deserve him.


British boxing has never been stronger!

Re: WBO Cruiserweight Division - Purse Bid Update Billam-Smith/Fress Today’s purse bid for the Interim title (originally ordered due to (Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez’s injury) was declared deserted. With no bidders participating, the WBO will reconvene to determine next steps. #WBO

Two tweets about boxing today. Dear lord, I need to get out of the house. I'll be streaming a Dave fucking Allen fight at the weekend if this continues.


FWIW I reckon Benn was juiced for Eubank II and McClellan.

Eubank one of rare fighters to get one over on King here. Fight contract stipulated options for Don if Eu won and if he lost. Best result possible for Eubank.

On this day in 1993 Chris Eubank and Nigel Benn fought to a 12 Round Split Draw Eubank retains the WBO Super Middleweight Title, Benn retains the WBC Super Middleweight Title

Every single comment on the FT DAZN article is people mocking them or complaining about awful stream quality or grubby business practices. Awful, awful outfit.


“DAZN. The black screen of sports.”


I see DAZN is now styling themselves as the Spotify of sports. Presumably because it turns out the Netflix of sports is called Netflix. Useless cunts.
