This will be a much different fight compared to the Fury-Ngannou fight. Joshua will be in shape which Fury was not, and Ngannou will be on the backfoot courtesy of AJ’s jab and punching power. Joshua will make quick work of Ngannou.
Four champions at this weekends state titles. Three wins in the novice category and @VinoMaroulis takes out the Elite Super Heavyweight title with two decision victories. Only loss this weekend was a split decision against the Australian middleweight champ in the 75kg semi final
4/4 last night at Sydney Fight League. National Olympic trials coming up in August for Vino Maroulis and State titles for the rest of the team in September
It’s nice when you decide not to pay $60 for a pay per view, then you get to watch the entire card on the PPV channel’s Twitter feed because the main two fights lasted less than a round.
Joseph Parker makes a statement, sending opponent Fiaga Opelu to the canvas in just 75 seconds 👏

I think Harvey Dock’s influence on that fight was the biggest factor. Repeatedly throughout he broke the fighters when Lomachenko was in position to score on the inside. If he lets Lomachenko fight more in close and stops Haney holding it could be the difference in a close fight.
Harvey Dock is breaking these guys like it’s an amateur fight. Haney is looking to hold but Loma is freeing his hands to work, only for Dock to break them when he frees his hands. Frustrating when a referee doesn’t understand in-fighting
What a knockout by Liam Park! Jarvis hasn’t adapted his style since he moved up in weight and he paid the price for rushing in against a natural junior-welterweight.
