I Don’t Do Boxing

Posted on 19/05/2024 by Daniel

I have very little time for the sport, the results or the men involved (apart from the sharp minded Ali) but watching the news I saw the results of this match in Saudi Arabia.

Fury looked hugely unfit and when I learned he had been paid £100,000,000 for the night I realised why. He didn’t care. You expect your fighters surely to be sleek and showing their muscles and he looked more like me albeit a foot taller. I know as one ages the fight to stay trim is harder but really he should have been in far better shape and asking for a rematch is just him thinking about more money. Though probably next time his Ukrainian opponent will get a bigger pay out.

It is true, money in sport gives you less.
