Comments Thread For: Michael Hunter-Chauncy Welliver on Ramirez-Lopez Card

[PBR Streetgang]

Not a fight I want to see and I like Hunter. At his best, Chauncey was a crafty opponent but he doesnt look anyplace like that now.

Not sure why Matchroom dropped him after the Povetkin draw but I'd love to know. Makes me wonder if he's an independent by choice, he'd make a nice addition to either PBC or Top Rank.

On another note, I wonder how long Zurdo stays independent. Can only fight these stay-busy matchups so long....

This is going to be brutal

They dropped him because he screwed up, he the opportunity to make a name for himself and failed. I like him but it shows where your real level if you take fights like this and then beg to fight Whyte, and co.

You mean like old grandpa Povetkin.... keep colour out of it you racist scumbag.

He didn’t mention colour....stop playing the race card and race baiting

Povetkin isnt an anglo-sax you dumb

Lol exactly, he’s a Slavic Russian. I suppose there are levels to education....

[Oldskoolg]

Not at all Furys mother is Welsh + Irish and father Irish both of which is Celtic, "Anglo-Saxons" are English, Germans and west of the Rhine basically the fact you're trying to tell what constitutes an Anglo-Saxon is hilarious, there is plenty of eastern Europeans in the US and other countries none of which are "Anglo" and now people of African descent and Mexican descent is Anglo-Saxon, you're a mad lad.

“Mexican descent??Too new country to claim descent innit. African people can have Anglo-Saxon backgrounds? Hmmmm....plenty of them all over the USA, the Caribbean, and the U.K. with substantial Saxon dna....its 2020 fella...

I wonder why DAZN and Eddie dropped him. And how come the Povetkin rematch wasn't made.

Probably the COVID situation and he wasn’t a draw . Hunter was supposed to be a future AJ opponent when he drew with Povetkin that put a halt on that ,they know Hunter really lost that fight .

If Hunter ever fights Hrgovic he will lose badly , Dazn has a good line of heavyweight guys ,seems like they aren’t targeting U.S heavyweights right now with recent signings with guys like Azerbaijans, Majidov an Olympic stand out .

Pardon me but didn't Pulev do the same thing for about 4 years and nobody complained.

Pulev won 2 IBF eliminators in last 4 years.

I don't like Hunter, but he really beat Povetkin. I saw Hrgovic's last fight. He's nothing special. Whether he beats Hunter or not is irrelevant. Hunter was probably dropped because he's boring and has no real career plan. He fights, then vanishes for long stretches. Real strange dude.

Does anyone know what "Anglo-Saxon" means? We could use some clarification here.
