    @kiwiinmelb it's the complete lack of discipline that I see. letting himself go so badly and already lacking the athletic physique. His voice has gone and he looked like a 50yo man for about 2 years.

    Yeah Ricky Hatton used to do the same , let himself go completely in between fights ,

    seems so unprofessional , and just bloody hard work to shed the weight again , makes no sense ,

    But he isnt looking too bad now , will be interesting to see how he goes .

    Hatton looks like absolute hammered shit these days but again, was ripped as fuck for fights.

    Fury must have a decent metabolism cos he was looking like Jabba the Hutt when he did a haka with JP not too long ago.

    I ran into Ricky Hatton in a bar in thailand a few months back , he was sitting there getting shit faced by himself , totally out of shape and looking nothing like an ex world champ ,

    Pandoras Bar , Soi 7 Pattaya to be exact ,

    Had a couple of beers with him , he had no idea who I was , but seemed to enjoy having a chat , talking absolute shit, funny bastard he was

    @jegga thoughts on this? Would you trade your ABs brekky for this sort of experience?

    Solely going by that weigh in picture, which one of those two would you pick as a boxer?

    AJ surely has some athletic skills to get where he has, and maybe he just breaks the mould, but look at JP in comparison. Thicker core, more 'padding' to take shots, a thick neck.

    If Joe got his tan on you'd see far less difference imo. Joe doesn't have quite the bulk but he's pretty close in terms of body fat I reckon. Joshua looks far more like a gym rat, especially with his headphone and visible undies.

    The most significant difference for me is AJs 6 inch reach advantage , particularly how he likes to throw that right from full extension

    Parker looks quite a bit more underdone in the chest area Paeks. Is the the only bloke on earth who doesn't work chest?

    @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!!

    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.

    @bovidae Can't persuade the missus this is worth forking out for on her birthday 😲 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.

    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.
