cant remember who i was listening to, but was some boxing pundit and he was saying up close JP has a much bigger head than AJ as well...

Much easier to hit 😉

taniwharugby

@mikethesnow well you'd think, but not what he was implying...?

Paekakboyz

@mn5 yeah Joshua looks more bodybuilder-like . But Joe looks sharp too imo. Has Joshua ever talked about any training he did in the big house? Hopefully too much weights, not enuf speedwork!!

Bovidae

Who has paid to watch this fight, or is watching it somewhere? I would like to but will be on the road at that time.

ShadowTrooper

@bovidae Can't persuade the missus this is worth forking out for on her birthday :astonished_face: so we might rock up to the local pub to watch instead. Most of the locals in the UK are showing it thankfully, coverage has finally been amped up this week.

MiketheSnow

Looking to watch it at home with the missus.

Any idea what time the main fight is?

Was at the last fight and it seemed to be all done and dusted by 11

In NZ it has been advertised that the main event will not start before 8:30am - so approx 3:30 from now.

MN5

I've heard 8.45. Heading to the old mans shperly to watch. He'd better have the jug on !

taniwharugby

@mn5 daylight savings 8.45 or after the clocks go back 8.45?

Coverage here in aus started at 4am , early start ,

Feeling nervous , really want Joe to do well , but not too confident unfortunately ,

Hope they have a good fight plan , we have been hearing about AJs weaknesses they want to exploit ,

its time to execute .

Someone started drinking early

Povetkin , probably flies under the radar , gold medalist, lost one fight to Klitschko, knocked out takam

MN5

So there's one more fight before the main card?

JK

Main and final undercard fight over. Povetkin winning in a pretty brutal fights. KO in 5th after both going down in 2nd or 3rd

Main event prob 930 now

Yep price went down like a sack of shit. So brutal watching it in slow mo. Good on him for getting his own knockdown though. You knew that one wouldn't go the distance.

Povetkin 34-1. One loss to Kiltchko is certainly no disgrace. Great record.

Virgil

Stream sorted oops I mean I paid the $49.99 for the legal right to watch the fight

PN

Hoping JP will keep up and put on a decent fight.

Whenever I see this ring announcer, the first thing that comes to mind is when he was on Sports Cafe and got really angry at Mark Ellis.

@pn can you send me the link via pm

PN

forgive my ignorance, but why would they do a haka if they have a Manu Samoa flag? Shouldnt it be the Siva Tau?

Paekakboyz

Imagine boxing in front of 80k people! That is a HUGE fucking crowd. Well done Joe and co, irrespective of the outcome you've made it to the big leagues.

Higgins

Not a single punch landed in the first round as the fighters felt each other out.

Virgil

reckon Parker is in alot of trouble

Dice

Parker has spent a lot of energy and landed nothing. He has to expend more energy just to even get close to landing one. Joshua seems comfortable out there.

bizarre..just as the first round started my AV decided to inform me that the stream had a virus and was shutting it off for me...it was totally fine for the last 30 mins

Paekakboyz

Parker needs to land something, to put some doubt in Joshua's mind. Too easy for Joshua at the moment.

Stargazer

Anyone in need of link can PM me. Mine is still working at the moment.

kiwiinmelb

Not going to win on the outside

what the hell is parkers strategy here? Surely he is going to be exhausted soon

Dice

At least 3 of the 4 rounds to AJ. 1 round(round 1) could go either way.

Paekakboyz

Just one shot to rattle him Joe!

fuck, needs some way to get in and land something. Joshua's working his jab nicely and is dominating the space.

Parker showing Signs of life there
