Nick Ball winning. He deserved it. He boxed extremely well, stuck to the game plan and executed it perfectly. He has a great style of educated pressure
Turkey telling Eddie hearn he might as well retire I don't know what's worse his matchmaking or his knowledge of boxing lol signing wilder to fight Zhang just shows how thin his stable is with up and coming talent aswell I would have rather signed Martin bakole to fight Zhang at Least he would have had a chance lol he basically might as well retire in the Uk soon if I was dazn i would be worried about there stable of future stars in the uk compared to Queensbury and boxxer even surely dazn arent happy with the undercards in saudi from there side for example Joshua wallin so technically there the lead broadcaster with Joshua headlining and there fighters was in mismatches on the undercard with queensbury fighters having proper fights then fury against usyk were tnt was lead broadcaster you had cordina defending his belt and opeteia rematching breidis is it just me or can anyone else see turkey and frank warren are just taking the piss out of Eddie lol
My favourite moment was being wrong about most of my picks (apart from Zhang and Bivol) - that's why we love boxing, it's so competitive and unpredictable. Saudis have really changed boxing for the better - throwing money at the fighters so they no longer are afraid to 'lose their 0' and showing that when you fight the best (and remain active)...the fighters perform and the fans are happy. Still can't believe Hutchinson beat Richards. So many little things that, in hindsight, now show - Ford maybe tight at the weight and that tough fight with Kholmatov..leading to him not being able to force the stoppage vs Ball; Ammo's extremely aggressive style being putty for an ever-improving Sheeraz and Hrgovic continuing to show how he probably left it all in the amateurs. Big congrats to all the Queensbury boys - they all performed wicked.
I had ball to win hutchinson to win duboise to win sheeraz to win and it was all running on wilder I bet wilder to knock fury out in all 3 fights and the only other time I bet him was Saturday he jeeps letting me down for hundreds I hope he retires as I can't afford him to keep fighting lol
@rickisunak it was a hard card to pick.. they all had a chance v each other. I watched highlights of them and picked every winner going off the highlights one thing I got wrong was put my bet on then watched the Ford best highlights soon as I did. I wanted to change my bet but I got a bit lucky there could of been a draw or even Ford good fight though I think ball deserved the win because of his last fight he got robbed... and I needed wilder for a few hundred pounds he let me down again
@@boxingnews__ bit bizarre that the time when there’s most going on in the boxing world and loads to discuss and you’re not doing as many podcasts… do better!
I picked ball Sheeraz and Zhang bivol was the only obvious choice though on the card and that wasn’t part of the 5 v 5 really enjoyed the ball v ford fight excellent card
Cmon.. He showed some balls, kept on coming forward and showed some good footwork. It's a fight after all. Hrgovic looked very lethargic. Agree about the head, but a lot of fighters do that. I thought he would get schooled badly but fairplay to him. Who wins out of him and Joshua?
The smith that fought Eubank after beating him wasn’t the same one of the first fight, flat as a pancake something wasn’t right and still he was a 154lb fighter moving up and at the twilight of his career too. Sheeraz is a whole different beast, young, big, ambitious and can punch I for certain wouldn’t make him a favourite in that fight I thought he lost every round against Williams bar the rounds with the knockdowns he couldn’t beat an injury plagued end of the road grieves albeit at super middle and even dating back to Saunders he started late after doing zilch in 6 rounds never rated him at all I’d go as far as saying the most overhyped fighter in Britain over the last decade achieved nothing as far as titles in the sport or fighting people of note but I suppose he’s completed it money wise off the very little ability I think he has compared to others he was never gonna fight golovkin and canelo and even now he’s had no world title shots at middleweight the guys just not interested in that side of the sport. Best win on his record was against a shot to bits Degale, he’d have got beat off Korobov bar the injury I believe too.
Andy Clarke saying you had to pick Richards as heavy favourite is absolutely mental, like printing money betting on Hutchinson Richards takes no risks never has and was never going to win against a switched on Willy. That was the banker of the night along with Zhang
Nah most people had Richards as the fave & you could kinda see why. Heck when they first announced the card most said this is the worst & easiest fight & were amazed as to why Hearn didn't make Richards captain. Willy had a point to prove, fair play to him
Ford won that fight imo.. don’t think ball done enough to take the belt from champion period.. ball was just active throwing but was hitting the arms an gloves for most part !!
Personal opinion I don't care about the crowd when the fights we want are happening! What a card! I'd rather have this crowd with good competitive match ups than having a loud crowd with mismatches.

I really enjoyed the card dont get me wrong, not sure we needed the saudis for this card though without bivol/beterbiev there it was defo a card that could have been made in the uk if only eddie n frank thought of it first. Im not the only one who has an issue with the half empty venue and zero atmosphere to the point you can here a single cough on tv. Bit of a dampner for me.
What was your favourite #5vs5 moment? 👇
Ford getting his comeuppance after the Kholmatov robbery.

DDD exposing Hrgovic
All fantastic fights but DDD winning was brilliant!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Personally, I thought this card was quite predictable.
@@michaelrowley941😂
@@licker51that's really silly, it was (on paper) quite tough to call, shown by how close Ball and Ford was.

I’ve been waiting all weekend for this show to come out! Thanks for always having great discussions 🥊
Brilliant as usual, was really looking forward to this one, the best boxing podcast by far.
Far and away the best boxing discussion channel 💯👍
I had no idea that Hutchinson beat Morrell in the amateurs.
Barry’s right, why have these podcasts become so infrequent??
Combination of Barry and Andy being in Saudi and Rob being in Las Vegas. It happens!
@@boxingnews__ bit bizarre that the time when there’s most going on in the boxing world and loads to discuss and you’re not doing as many podcasts… do better!
Really enjoying The Knockout - a great read. Well done Andy
No Time Stamps ?
Done now!
Nice podcast lads
Fun one!

Always a great watch, ❤

Daniel Dubois. Suddenly, I'm really excited to see his future, not the best boxer but what a fighter..
I thought he'd only won a round. Strange stoppage.
@@louduva9849a Howard Foster type stoppage. Corrupt or incompetent?
He lost this fight big. Corrupt ref should have gone to the cards, as he called the cut from a headbutt.
Cmon.. He showed some balls, kept on coming forward and showed some good footwork.
It's a fight after all.
Hrgovic looked very lethargic. Agree about the head, but a lot of fighters do that.
I thought he would get schooled badly but fairplay to him.
Who wins out of him and Joshua?
@@FightFilms you boy got smashed, cope more
Surprise was how good the DAZN commentary team was. Quite a good chemistry between them.
Great stuff lads, thanks 🥊👌
Is Andy's book a good read? Must admit the more he mentions it the more I fancy giving it a go
Let me guess, there will be no mention of Daniel's vicious and deliberate hradbutts and the corrupt ref who saved him from a loss?
dat never happened brudda
Those cuts were from headbutts from Dubois...Ironic as Dubois would probably still beat him as Hrgovic got tired
Hahahahaha cope. DDD smashed your boy to bits. Exposed.
cope
Cry more
Wilder has regressed under malik scott. Imo he is 100% the issue in the rapid decline of wilder.
He is not a fearsome puncher. Who has he knocked out ?

WILDERS A C LEVEL FIGHTER f course he's gpoing to get destroyed by fighters better than him
he's getting beat now cos he's old and war torn. Are you new to boxing or something?
@@powpow9560 no because he's fighting tougher competition now
Middleweight division is very weak...
Cruise is worse than that

Don't be silly pal.
@@peternagy-im4be mate am being serious look at the back not fade looks like they put a bowl around it and cut it 🙈😂
Hat hair, brav.
Pls stick on Apple Podcasts
If I was wilder I’d beg mark breland for 3 fight run. Get rid of Malik Scott, I’m convinced he’s on a side quest to destroy he man who KO’d him
He took a dive in that fight
Nick ball champ yasss
i really wish these boxing podcast would talk the truth and be honest theres just no common sense that comes out of them its comical
This comment is comical 😩
Hope yous mention how pathetic the crowd and atmosphere is. Half empty, abduls everywer.
Nobody cares about that mate. Without the Saudis none of these fights happen.
Keep crying 😢 about the atmosphere while the rest of us enjoy the great fights.
Personal opinion I don't care about the crowd when the fights we want are happening! What a card! I'd rather have this crowd with good competitive match ups than having a loud crowd with mismatches.
