Not sure I'll bother watching the whole fight but once the replay is up on YouTube I'll enjoy watching SBW's reaction when the decision is announced. :D 0-2 in his last two fights. Whodathunk anybody could beat the legendary SBW? :shock: I thought he'd be just as good at boxing as he (supposedly) i...

If a group of people were clutching pearls, and I doubt they actually were, I would imagine it was Australian returned servicemen, who are possibly the least woke people outside of a KKK convention.

I just think boxing is such a corrupt sport. This shit happens all the time. Literally nobody except Gal thinks Gal won. The best you could give him - if you were only trying to setup a rematch - is a draw. How can they not sort this shit out? How many actually know how to score boxing though? Just...

Nobody on earth except for Gal thinks Gal won that fight. Boxing is a pathetic joke of a sport. A carnival circus act.

It is entertaining though, but ffs.

Mog The Almighty

Not sure if he was robbed but I agree with the commentator that he got cleaner head shots and did more damage. That said the deducted point was big, and SBW ran away from the fight too much or smothered it. If he'd just come forward in the first 4 rounds he'd have knocked Gallen out, but I reckon h...

Mog The Almighty

All the commentators think SBW won. So I feel vindicated.

SBW got robbed I reckon. I can't see how Gal won that, no matter what he says. Not sure if he was robbed but I agree with the commentator that he got cleaner head shots and did more damage.

I dunno what you mean ... that's boxing, and as far as I saw, that's what happened.

Mog The Almighty

SBW got robbed I reckon. I reckon Gal's best hope was a draw.

I can't see how Gal won that, no matter what he says.

Mog The Almighty

Early prediction: they'll call it a draw to setup another one.

Mog The Almighty

The jab uppercut works for SBW. But he just got hurt with that body shot big time. This is intense.

It's been working okay for him, no?

It's definitely entertaining. I wish it were 3mins over 12.

Mog The Almighty

Sonny is gonna smash him.

Edit: maybe not then. Gals comeback but he almost knocked him in round 2.

Mog The Almighty

Geez. They're both in inspirational condition.

Mog The Almighty

It's about to start ... I think. They love to drag these things on. I have to admit, I'm excited. Although I have no idea who I'm going for. I just have the probably delusional hope it will be a good fight and they will hug it out and be nice in the end. I guess I have to go for SBW. Since I can't d...

For anyone interested, the main event is next. I've posted a stream in the comments above.

Mog The Almighty

Absolutely. That braindead shoulder charge and resulting red card cost us the second test and ultimately the series. But fatboy Hansen was still looking into ways to mitigate the charge and get SBW back early in time for the third test. Has there been a more overrated player in AB history? Sure, th...

Gal's arrival: turns up in a pickup that he drove himself wearing a tracksuite with a gym bag. Zero entourage.

It's kind hard not to like that. Even if it is intentionally playing into the blue collar working man image for the clicks.

Here's the stream:

Just replace the DOT with an actual .

You'll have to click off a few pop-up ads and shit, but it will work eventually.

Give yourself an uppercut for using that term - FFS! :blush: It's definitely a word that gets abused by Trumpy types and loony right media. But there also is a legit "woke" phenomenon and I can't think of a better or more succinct word to describe it. I wish I could. Catholics think there is a legi...

When does this shit show actually start?

As in, "hours from now"?

Perhaps the RSL and RSA have said don't use the ANZAC title, why it was changed. Regardless, it's not paying homage anyway, it's a lazy rip off. That's why it was AUSNZ team this time. Of course, you're probably right. But it does my head in. Sure, it was the AU-NZ team this time simply because eve...

I like Sonny Bill. Not to douche chill levels. I just enjoyed and respected the contributions he made to the ABs in that window of 2015. He was made a valuable, entertaining cameo. He also seems a loyal, decent fella. His attachment to the likes of Quade Cooper and Anthony Mune puzzles me, but seem...

I've never been a fan. SBW the rugby league player I'm totally indifferent to as I don't really follow league but I acknowledge he was a big star in that code. But I was never a fan of SBW the rugby player. Overrated, one dimensional show pony. But that's just my opinion. And as for boxing. :roll: ...

Possibly due to JOCs face being all busted up in a recent post training photograph?

I’m not sure if Schmidt bases his selections on looks…

Obviously that's not what I was suggesting.

Like the SBW vs Hunt fight I'll be happy to watch a replay. Especially if SBW gets thumped. No way I'm parting with a single cent to watch it though. It's $45 in NZ. F u ck that. That's the same price they'll charge to watch Usyk vs Dubois. Gee let's see. The undisputed heavyweight championship of ...

I'm sure boxing will be the winner on the night. As if boxing has ever truly been far removed from carnival-style prizefighting. Muhammad Ali literally fought a pro wrestler, ffs. This kind of spectacle has always been part of the sport, woven into its history from the start. It's bizarre that sudd...

It’s just another money grab, mog. It’s like Paul vs Tyson on a much more local scale. Mug’s game I hope not. I hope it's a legit competition at least. Tyson vs Paul seemed more like a scripted pantomime. I think these blokes will be having a proper crack. Albeit with 2 minute rounds (which sucks)....

Anyone into this? I must admit for some reason I got swept up and am looking forwards to it. Weird considering I'm not sure I like either of them very much. Neither are in their prime, and neither are the best boxers in the world, which both admit. But that doesn't matter to me. It's still a compet...
