    From what i read, he called the guy a faggot and an orange faggot. Seems like pretty average trash talk, unless orange means something that I don't know

    You mean you're not a fan of the Gwoat lol.

    From my understanding or at least from what Fannon Boxing said. Josh Taylor called him a homosexual and accused him of being a child molester. Fannon(not his real name) was then cyberbullied and recieved death threats because of the comments.

    The only thing I can think of would be because the dude was Iris (reference to Orange order).

    Heard the guy was asian. from the picture i saw and the guy name, probably pakistani or bengali. I guess the orange comment might be referring to the color of his skin, but i personally never heard it used before

    But holy damn are police hard over there. Hard to believe he got arrested for that. Over here, police would have only told him to fuck off

    He didn't get arrested for that, he was arrested for being aggressive and threatening. He was only fined about 300 quid for it. He was

    Truth is, it has absolutely fuck all to do with his promotion here. Billy Joe Saunders has done far worse things than this and was never blackballed. Taylor just never signed himself to one promotional company here and paid the price for it. It's probably for the best, given he's now the most successful British fighter in boxing, but his lack of profile in the UK goes far further back than 2019. If anything, it was at its highest in 2019 coming off the Regis fight.

    Taylor recently snubbed the BBC and the sports personality award as he was left off the shortlist. He said they can shove the award right up their arses. You had loads of people in the comments section of various articles replying saying shit like...no one cares about you anyway as you have a criminal record. All that sort of bollocks. All over twitter too, but we all know that place is invested with parasites.

    I didn't know the bouncer accepted his apology. That should all now be water under the bridge

    I like Taylor he's a great champion. The fact that he's cheeky makes that much more fun to watch him. Cocky and Flashy like a Scottish Connor McGregor. As long as he keeps winning he can talk all the smack he wants.

    I like that he doesn't enjoy trash-talk. He just wants to get in that ring and have a good tear up

    I don't care if your friend was stabbed. It has fuck all to do with your inability to hook off the jab.

    Sadjo. Keep an eye out for him. He's not very good but he's got a beating coming to him for being a unlikeable dickhead.

    Is Owaga good? I know he fought on the Teo undercard but I wasn't really paying much attention. I was catching some extra sleep so I could watch Fulton-Figuora.

    I don't mind Zelfa, but I think I'm bias coz he's a Manny lad and I battered two lads from Moston and Collyhurst gym at an interclub. :Jest:

    Ogawa would have to be proper shite t lose t him cos Barratt didn't show me a whole load. Looks competent but not really world class.

    Yeah I am, but my stream's audio is a little out of sync.

    I'm not doing much betting, apps are asking for valid ID and I don't have any :Jest:

    Barret looked half decent vs Kiko. As far as I'm aware, Owaga looked impressive on the Lopez undercard.

    Protective cover just needed reseating. I take it off cos it unseat the charger and I'm the sort of spaz who has TV on, and a phone in his hand. Attention span of a flea, me.

    Sweet Caroline.

    Unimaginative dirge.

    "Huge atmosphere" says Tony Blue, as a handful of mongs bang out the chorus to a shite song

    Eddie Hearn "We're taking over the sport, globally".

    The 4th best British heavyweight since Lewis is looking for his 8th, 9th loss tonight.

    I like British boxing and British boxers, but there's some bollox spoken at these fights :Jest:
