In fact i think that's a silly comparison.. I can't be assed to Google, but I reck8n these Saudi events hold maybe 20k people, over half hand picked, its a middle east PR stunt ffs... those huge events you allude to had 80k or more people, they were spectacles... and 1 offs... I don't know the stats but I'd guess the last 10 "big shows" have been in Saudi...including the shit you tube events....its bullshit mate and I think you know that, but want to argue a point...

I don't think he is in the top 10 mate...so why he's even getting shots at top 10 fighters is because of money...its exhibition fights when there is real championship fights to be made Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kanny 20,179 Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 The way I see it , it's difficult to know what AJ will be facing in Ngannou,we haven't seen anything he's capable of really in boxing, the Fury vs Ngannou shitfest could have just been an anomaly, personally I'd have preferred to see the fight go to someone more deserving than Ngannou but I am intrigued by the match up,can see this going tits up again for AJ 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jukel123 7,868 Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 The sport used to be about who was the better man and that was important to boxers. Now it's about making as much money as possible and tactically avoiding those they might lose to. The only positive is that there will be a lot fewer ranked heavyweights who will become punch drunk in future years. They take a lot less meaningful blows to the head and have far fewer fights.
