I don't think so. Does come across as a very nice guy IMO, but I wouldn't say he's too nice to a point where it's a bad thing, he's all business inside the ring. Not the most talented, but he's still young and always gives it his all and I've still yet to see a boring fight involving him.

Any fighter who is willing to uppercut himself is worth watching just for the comedy value.

Excellent corner work by Rogan's trainer.

Rogan was in no condition to continue & I'm shocked that the referee couldn't see that.

Absolutely.

It's about time Fury started taking boxing seriously.

I don't know how good Fury can be, but one thing I do know; heavyweight boxing needs characters like him, as the division is moribund right now.

I have seen some robberies in my time, but not one as big as Rios vs Abril.

That was Great Train Robbery stuff.

Nice to see Tyson Fury with a bit of conditioning, although it looked a bit 'supplemental' to me. nm, I like him, but atm David Price looks like he'll go further.

I'm looking forward to saturday night, although Alvarez will win fairly easily and Floyd by a wide UD, maybe late TKO

It's a shame that Mosley isn't 10 years younger, otherwise it would be a cracking contest against Alvarez.

Mosley is just going to go into his shell & try & 'love' the fight out of Alvarez, much as he did against Pacquiao.

Floyd will definitely win easily against Cotto.

Cotto has slipped a bit recently, even though, at his best, he was still a league below Floyd IMO.

Hayes v chisora. Haye is a joke!!!

Pbf getting the highest guarantee ever. $32 million not including ppv revenue. The guy is very very smart.

Pacman gets like $7mil guarantee plus ppv revenue. I can see why Floyd says no 50/50 and offered pacman a maximum of $40 mil as pacquiao will not earn that money fighting anyone else but Floyd is making crazy money without pacquiao.

Just been reading about Haye vs Chisora.

Would be funny, people would watch it to see Chisora, not Haye.

So Haye vs Chisora then in a unlicensed fight this summer i dont know what one is the bigger disgrace and so much for that acting Career for Mr Haye it turns out thats only reserved for the boxing enviorment! Its also a shame they are talking about having the Ricky Burns and Kevin Mitchell fight on the undercard for the night which could easily headline a show on its own!

Looking foward to seeing Mayweather tonight i think Floyd will win by a landslide points decision!

I realise I've said it before ... but I still think that if these two jokers are allowed to sort out their problems I. The ring then ALL the profits should go to charity . At least some good will come of it .

Went down the way most expected, Mayweather out boxing him and winning a points decision, Mayweather is simply too good to be quite frank.
