Gareth davies is wrong here.
Gareth Davies, what a plonker.
Boot gareth off the show
Worst thing you could do with boxing is get rid of the sanctioning bodies.
Turki wants the best to fight the best and to stop ducking and protecting their 0, and rightly so
Whole sport of boxing is licking the ring piece of this ShakeMeCorry fella its embarrassing watching them sell there soles down the river to a beg buying his way in to the sport
Joshua could beat fury and they would still say fury is the best
Honestly, now Turki is spending Saudi money like it's nothing, i honestly feel we are in the greatest ever era of boxing. From the start of 2024 until whenever Saudi eventually stop financing the sport, it has never been seen before and never will be again
Adam, GAD is part of the problem.
Shilled his way into boxing & grifted an illustrious career out of it.
The last person who wasn't systematic change is the GAD. He's in bed with the boxing establishment.
Let's just say it as it is.
Catteral wasnāt talking about sanctioning bodies he was clearly talking about promotors, when he said getting rid of people!
Also what is the point in Ituma fighting for the WBA āRegularā title, it wouldnāt count as him winning a world title. He needs to beat either Usyk or Dubois to be win a legitimate title.
Gareth your wrong saying careers will be short. There has been to much focus on protecting one or two top fighters. People can lose and still fight, theres no way the top guys with padded careers should be getting 50m to fight each other the money needs to be spread to all fighters, and everyone needs to fight each other. Deffo get rid of the not fit for purpose boards of control and drug testing body's and implement exactly what the ufc has done. The model is proven and there is way less bs involved. the reason top guys only fight once a year is because they are on stupid money compared to the rest. So even up the levels and make them fight more often and this will make great commited fighters with time to hone their skills.
GAD is bang on
I agree with everything about AJ however no one ever says about fury fighting bakole. Why are they always pushing ajās name to fight bakole? Madness. Fury should also be fighting bakole not just aj. Heās not retired donāt give me that crap
Anyone one who fights wilder in top 10. Will finish him in 1 round maybe 2. He is finished. I donāt think many will want to see AJ v wilder. Think bakoli v AJ. Much better fight
Well there you have it folks. GAD deserves all the credit for forcing Mayweather to fight Manny. What a hero!
Turki is 100% building towards a league. Look at the moves he's made. He didnt get all of the promotions working together and buy into DAZN for nothing
Gareth how are you still employed you know nothing about boxing
Once again Adam Catterall is right
Totally agree with Adam on this one . Well done Turki for putting on the fights us fans want to see
boxing will be far better when joshua fury and wilder retie? too many a-se lickers for fury and joshua? Time for the new blood to get a chance !!!
I hate Adam Catterall sooner he can go back to the UFC the better
GAD, you are such a waffling mug.
Talk sport, do us a favour and sack GAD. He's unbearable.
Can't wait until Turki takes over and makes Hearn and Warren completely redundant
How can either of these guys who have never step foot in a ring tell a boxer to rush his career?!
GAD talk so much but end up saying nothing.
Just see the way Adam was looking at him.
AJ just got brutally knocked out by Duboisā¦ā¦if your now calling for him just to jump straight back in against someone like Bakole than you just want to see Joshua get beat nothing more.
Going off this clip, the A in GAD stands for agree
Spot on Adam ā¤ earn fights on merit, not A side rubbish
Adam is hard work!!
Adam caterell must be thinking what a clown the GAD is
Catterall is a š¤”ā¦. 2:44 video stopped!!
Always AJ vs the Rest of the World. Always AJ needs to step up and fight the entire division. Itās always been like that. Yet most of the boxing world donāt want to admit that we all want to see how everyone looks against AJ more than we do against anyone else. AJ will always be underestimated and overvalued because many will always pay to see him lose but will never give him enough credit for winning. AJ is a star maker, you beat AJ and you become a Superstar. Ruiz became a major star by beating AJ. Parker became more of a star after he lost to AJ than when he beat Ruiz for the title. Usyk became a heavyweight star by beating AJ and then defending again against him, more than he would have done for beating Fury. Wilder built his name off AJās back while simultaneously ducking him and only fighting Fury so he could have enough clout at the negotiating table for a potential AJ fight. Dubois life has completely been transformed by beating AJ at Wembley and his confidence is through the roof. Youād think AJ would be nobody by now right but he is still the man they all want to beat and have to beat. Bakole, Zhang, Fury, Usyk, Wilder, Parker, Whyte and even Dubois would gladly jump at a major chance to face AJ at Wembley.
