Depends if wilder bothers showing up, I got big bang as favourite but I also wouldn't be surprised if wilder stretches zhang. I think I'm leaning towards Hergavich. Tough one jang is quite hittable and if wilder launch,s the big bomb he could also go over and if the dubious that whooped pedhead Miller last time out turns up I think he will want revenge for the sparring beat down he got as a youngster but hergovich is a tough cookie I like ddd and hope he has matured and got over his earlier losses think he should rematch Joyce and whoop his arse just for redemption then carry on up the ladder, the heavyweight division is crying out for a decent hungry youngster and I wouldn’t be sad to see Danial up there in the mix myself both jang and wilder are at the end so just take the Arab dollar and get gone not bothered who wins as said above I,m going for a reverse mchull prediction lol 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you genuinely think Usyk was in anyway bothered by Furys antics or whether it actually achieved anything.....then you clearly dont really understand what you are watching. 3 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnasher16 30,121 Posted May 30 Report Share Posted May 30 (edited) Its a decent card of fights to be fair.....the whole Hearn v Warren thing is muggy as f**k and the point scoring of it is just meaningless and stupid....but as 50/50 fights go theres 3 or 4 in my opinion i havent seen too much of Hergovic but be interesting to see where Dubois is at....if he could get his mind right theres opportunities for him to do well.....Zhang - Wilder is a hard one to predict as im not convinced anyone really knows still if Wilder is any good he's had the most bizarre career of any fighter i can remember......watched Okolie pick up that Bridgerweight belt last week he could do some damage in the heavyweight division,keeping in mind he's a good stone heavier than Usyk....could be some interesting match ups at heavyweight once the giants hurry up and f**k off.

I think Dubois has a lot of physical attributes. Fast hands included .His biggest problem imo is his self belief. I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt when he quit against Joyce with that eye socket injury whereas I remember you were critical of him. Against Usyk he could have continued physically, but Usyk just dismantled him mentally. Usyk says himself he never leaves you alone and that breaks fighters. Pressure fighters are a nightmare, but Usyk is deadly accurate as well and relentless. He tests fighters mental resolve as much as anything. This is Dubois's last chance, if he doesn't put on a warrior display and show more heart,he may as well pack in. He's got the tools ,we'll see if he's got the minerals. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thought Dubois looked a lot better last time out against Miller, was a tough test for him and he handled it pretty well, but the verdict is still out on him for me, I thought he was going to be challenging the top lads, but I think it's a bridge to far for him. I liked the look of that young lad Moses Itauma last time out, and saw him on the card a few months back, big, strong, quick and boxes well, obviously shit opposition at the moment, but handled well he looks like one for the future. Also, what happened to Martin Bakole, he looked a big lump and half decent as well, not seen him for a while though? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some good fighters, not all are going to be title contenders but some good domestic fighters nevertheless. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Councilestatekid 1,892 Posted June 1 Report Share Posted June 1 Think the likes of fury and mcgreger are the same now don't train like they did not committed as they once was but still want to be in the limelight and get the money fair enough mcgreger has turned into a proper nob now watching him at side of the ring spouting shit to any 1 who will listen chucking imaginary punches is embarrassing Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looking forward to tonight, just a shame the Bertibiev v Bivol fight is off... For me.. Zhang beats Wilder Dubios beats hergovic Both decent 50/50 fights though...so hard to call 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
