@BlueLion_81 Charles Martin is in no way better than Wilder. And I don't rate Wilder.

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

He really does the "if you've never boxed" argument no end of harm

For someone so experienced in the sport, his opinions are so nonsensical at times

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

@MitchellTuc2ag @TonyBellew To be honest he had a great career. Won pretty much everything he could.

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

@BoxingMediaUk1 I feel dreadful haha

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

@JohnHodgson1986 Says more about his standards haha

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

@Olexio1 @David66393582 Based on what?

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

UNBELIEVABLE Muhammad Ali story from Carl Hartley and Tony Bellew

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

Devin Haney officially signs with DAZN

Does this make it more or less likely we see him in meaningful fights?

[BoxingScene.com @boxingscene]

Robert Smith has admitted that the end is in sight for his time as General Secretary of the British Boxing Board of Control.

Sad to read that the iconic boxing venue that is the York Hall is to shut down.

If it doesn’t ever reopen atleast I can say I ticked it off the box both as a fan & in corners

Defend yourself at all times 💀🥊

Iconic

[BoxGong @fx_o_fx]

Casuals will never guess this match.

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

@NE5westend Unbelievable day. Came away from that ground on another planet. The day we realised bloody hell we’re actually a good side here.

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

@nanablog_ Very good shout

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

@ChrolloLuciii I 100% agree Itauma looked more technically skilled but there is way to more to boxing quality than pure skill.

Good to actually debate it though 👍

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

Fully agree with this

Hrgovic was able to stand up to Itauma and force him where he'd never been before

[Ariel Helwani @arielhelwani]

Filip Hrgovic believes he deserves more credit for his win over Moses Itauma than simply chalking it up to Itauma gassing out:

"He gassed out for a reason. Because I was there, I was hitting him, my presence was there.

I was receiving all these shots and kept coming forward. I got into his head before the fight. All of these things I did right.

I did a lot of bodywork that people didn't see during the whole fight.

He didn't get tired because of nothing. He got tired because of my performance, because of shots he received, and because of my toughness.

I don't agree with that bullshit that he just got tired.”

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

@ChrolloLuciii Yeah which ultimately meant Itauma was worse, on the night

I think his plan was to take Itauma into deep waters and he did exactly that

Admittedly he relied A LOT on his chin and cardio but it worked

Blueprint is now there for any durable HW to beat Itauma

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

@ChrolloLuciii Hrgovic was definitely the better fighter on the night

Itauma had it all to lose and did so by throwing bombs for 4 rounds straight

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

@ChrolloLuciii More experience, better chin, better gas tank, smarter, implemented better tactics

Better is most departments on the night

How do you define better?

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

Champion who won a vacant title calling others "fake"

Only in boxing!

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

@martin_hillman Didn't hit enough of them imo 😂

[BBB @BritBoxingBlog]

Has a boxer ever landed a more satisfying punch?
