Aye maybe even 2?? Fancied Beterbiev but Bivol was incredible 2nd half of the fight. Elite level stuff there, brilliant to watch. Roll on the 3rd fight!

2 genuine brilliant boxers! Can't believe Beterbiev is 40

Acting by proxy for Fearon.

Crocker v Donovan tonight in Belfast should be a cracker. Struggle to recall an all Irish fight with this much hype.

I think if Donovan can handle his nerves in front of that big Belfast crowd, he has the skills to either beat Crocker on pts or knock him out late.

Hope the winner goes on to get a world title shot either way.

In the name fook, can't believe he has been disqualified.

Crazy stuff. Fight should have been stopped earlier, but Donovan so stupid to do that with two points deducted already

Some ending, Donovan was levels above

Madness. Punch was very, very, very late but the ref has had an absolute shocker there. Fight should have been stopped long before that. Crocker's eye was done.

Pundits talking about it being a great fight that everybody would want to see again when it was one way traffic. Crocker saying he heard the bell and dropped his hands, but his hands were up when the punch landed. He wouldn't have made it through the next round either.

Awful, a real WTF moment. The ref had the time to process it, it wasn't a split second / reactionary decision... Brutal on Donovan who was by a distance the better boxer

Silkyskillssunshinee · March 01, 2025, 11:05:12 PM

Lack of discipline from Donovan there but it's clear that he's the only one capable of challenging for world honours.

Was very one sided and I think Crocker was looking for a way out at the same time.

nrico2006 · March 01, 2025, 11:06:59 PM

Crocker isn't taking a rematch.
