Boxing

“his excellency” has poured his money into the sport and made some real Hollywood fights.

Fair play to the weirdo. He must realise that Saudi sucks the atmosphere from the sport - sadly because the spectators can’t get on it. I’m not sure he’ll care too much as if he keeps flashing the cash then the viewing figures will be there.
 

Just out of interest, how do they announce the number of the round over there (over here we have ladies holding up a placard). I don’t bother to pay attention in between the rounds, so I’d imagine it’s just a digital marker and not a lady in a burqa? 😄

He's done events in the US and the UK now so seems happy to give the real fans fights so long as everyone knows Saudi is funding it.

Still shameless sportswashing of course.
 
Feel more relaxed about the Beterbiev decision now watching it back - thought Bivol should have won watching it live. Beterbiev really not hurt at all and relentless aggression, Bivol too analytical in the final rounds waiting for an opportunity that didn't really present.

Had Richie Woodhall on the commentary who I normally don't mind, but thought he was awful Sat night - pure casul chat from round 1 to round 12. Bivol putting on an elite display of precision boxing and Woodhall was talking like he was just on his bike doing nothing.
