Alright folks, 

As you might know I'm Tapology Boxing editor. I know the majority of you guys are here for MMA, so was I originally. But for the last year or 2 there is a little more interest in Boxing on the site. 

So here's a place to talk boxing.

Yeah, ****** all that has to play a factor in preparation.  Man, hindsight is a wonderful thing but I wish I'd properly considered all of this and bet the house Kambosos! Hahaha

Just finished watching the fight. Great knock, great display of  never-say-die Aussie fighting spirit by George. Scorecards shoudn't have been that close, he won pretty clearly. Shouldn't have gone to split and I'm surprised he wasn't robbed. About time Australia got another champ on the books.

Anybody else got a Mike Tyson Tokyo upset vibe from this fight? Obviously Kambosos is way more accomplished then Buster Douglas but I'm more thinking of the build ups being similar.

Scorecards are always suspiciously close if it's American vs Foreigner in USA. Look at the Castano-Charlo fight or even Taylor-Ramirez. Taylor was boxing the bleeding head off Ramirez and somehow they still gave Ramirez six rounds.

Beat me to it!

Was just about to post that vid! Ha

1 of my favourite monthly videos! Love getting to see all the KO's from all around the planet! Especially since I'm adding all those fights, nice to actually see what's going on in Argentina all the way over to Australia!!!

Yeah, seen that earlier. Sucks!!
I heard that Inoue opponent is already in Japan so that fight should still go ahead, not sure about GGG Murata and the Ioka Ancajas unifications tho??

Gatti Ward



the best boxing trilogy of my lifetime!  It's certainly up  there with the best of them!  Always good to have a little reminder every now and then.

Oh yeah, just watched that and was reminded about Round 9 of the 1st fight.  1 of the greatest rounds of boxing I've ever seen!!!!

Yeah, I hope he's OK and doesn't become another wasted talent. 
There seems to be a lot of chaos in and around him.

Unfortunately, combat sports especially, is full of troubled souls. 
Hopefully he can find some stability

I feel like GGG vs Murata has the possibility to move to another country while maintaining the same date, but DAZN may wait until they can do it in Japan at some point next year.

Just read that article that @Cheeseball posted and I know that boxers can be stopped from fighting if they are deemed medically unfit but is there any sort of similar thing for if they are mentally unfit to fight? I'm no psychiatrist but I'd say that Teofimo Lopez is definitely struggling with some sort of mental illness and probably shouldn't be fighting until he gets them sorted out. Tyson Fury took a few years out to sort out his problems and has now made one of the most incredible career comebacks we've seen in boxing. Lopez probably needs to do the same.

@Stephen I'm surprised to learn you're not a Psychiatrist. I had you pegged as either that or a theoretical physicist.

@Baldric Eggling

I barely scrapped through my GCSE's (basic level of education in the UK before further education) so I'm hardly an academic lol.

Well, I once saw Mikey trying to teach a Koi in the Victoria Park fountain how to use a stepladder. I guess he thought it was trapped in there or something. Obviously it didn't work, and he became so frustrated that he reached in,  plucked it out and hurled it at some poor kid trying to learn to ride a bike.

Disgraceful behaviour IMO.
