Quoted from Humbercod
Brook looked great and seemed to get stronger the longer the fight went on against a past it Khan. I always thought that unlike Khan he wanted the fight more than the money and he celebrated like he’d won a world title, I was well pleased for him.
I think he should retire but a Eubank fight would be huge financially for him, I would expect Eubank to be the favourite although Brook would definitely fancy his chances but just like Khan last night he would be motivated for the payday, I think Connor Benn would be the better option for him.


Yeah, Brook wanted it more but I did admire Khan's bravery. He took a lot of punishment.

Benn would be very dangerous for Brook. But a fight against either him or Eubank would be a last big pay day and could elevate Eubank or Benn to world level.

I don't know a great deal about boxing, but that decision last night was like Dave Challinor getting the free kick!

Absolutely scandalous! I’ve seen some shocking decisions in my life but for everyone to be in agreement tells you everything.

Perhaps I expect too much but the level of dishonesty from Taylor didn’t sit well with me. The very least Catterall deserved was a ‘it was a tight fight’ and well do it again.

However, to bullshiit the people and say he won definitively, is treating the audience in attendance and at home with contempt.

It’s fights like that, that turn me off boxing!

Catterall should be world champion today looking forward to more lucrative fights, even financial stability for his family. Completely robbed.

Fury v Whyte in less than an hour. What are we thinking?

I honestly think this is going to be the toughest fight of Fury's career. Deontay Wilder hits hard but has zero boxing skills. Whyte might not quite have that explosive power but he can actual box..

Slugfest with Fury stopping Whyte in round 7.

Not the fight I was expecting. I didn’t think Fury would show the amount of respect to Whyte and patience he did. It was a bit of a borefest. Great uppercut to finish it.
