Think I'll try to watch Zhang and Parker. Crazy the different directions Parker and Joyce have gone since their fight.

 

Can't find a DAZN stream but I think Sky will be sufficient

 

Adam Smith is prob the best guy doing pbp rn anyway imo

 

Well looks like he's not with Sky anymore. Never mind!

 

Dazn https://www.thestreameast.to/boxing/anthony-joshua-vs-francis-ngannou/

 

It doesn't seem good that's for sure.

 

Regardless of the sport washing, the events look completely devoid of any atmosphere

 

Vargas vs Ball next, should be worth watching

 

Is this the 1st Mexican that Ball has fought?

edit: it's his 2nd

 

Yeah they've done some fucked up shit and I don't like them doing these there but the fighters deserve to get paid as much as they can. Bad situation.

 

have mentioned it before that it sucks as a long time boxing fan. we barely get big Saturday night fights anymore and if we are going to lose our time zone I would rather the fights be in London where you know the atmosphere will be lively

 

Nick Ball looks like a nightmare to fight, just an absolute terrier

 

Split draw

 

Does Vargas think that Ball is from Saudi?

 

Parker and Zhang co-main

 

Feel like Zhang will stop Parker

 

If I were Fury or Joshua I would avoid fighting Zhang

 

Had to look up the black trainer speaking Chinese to Zhang.

Zhang is banging out there

 

Yeah he's going to knock Parker out

 

Parker better throw everything he's got. He's not going to stop coming forward

 

Zhang's gonna crank it back up in this next round

 

Parker's tough. Thought he was done a couple of rounds ago

 

Parker is stealing rounds. Not sure what Zhang is thinking here. Bizarre strategy since the knockdown

 

Zhang is going to fuck up and lose this fight

 

It's weird the way Zhang is fighting. Is he just looking for some big KO?

 

Yes

The entire fight I'm thinking Parker is about to get knocked out or win on points. Strange

 

I can't tell if he's gassed or what's going on

 

Looked like he was about to pass out at the end of the 11th

 

Yeah I wonder what would happen if Parker really put the pressure on him

 

Zhang giving like minimal effort when his corner is telling him he needs a KO

 

What a disappointing showing from Zhang.

 

Joe Joyce must have zero boxing IQ to get dumpstered in both fights by Zhang

 

They're gonna do a rematch smh

 

Fury plays the part well

 

Yeah that was especially low energy

 

Ngannou is seen more as a contender at this point I think

 

He was looking a little pale earlier.

 

He turns 80 in November according to wiki. I guess it makes sense

 

10-8 AJ
