He’s done it!!! Harry Garside is a split decision winner and Australia’s first Olympic boxing medallist since Spike Cheney in 1988. Garside is guaranteed bronze and fights Cuba’s Andy Cruz for a place in the final on Friday. Massive result for Australian boxing

No point having a doctor if they aren’t willing to stop a fight when one man has been hit by an axe. Unbelievable this wasn’t stopped at the end of 2

OMG! OMG! I cannot believe this S$&@$! Anthony Joshua — holder of 3 belts, gets TKO’d by Butter Bean.......I mean some dude named Andy Ruiz JR. What a damn disgrace. Joshua looked completely gassed! More fatigued than hurt! Now how in the Hell did you let that happen? How?
Deontay Wilder just sent a man to another dimension but the performance of the day remains the freakish Naoya Inoue. He’s as close to boxing perfection as exists in the world right now.
Andrew Moloney = one tough hombre! 2 x perforated eardrums + broken nose + stitches inside his mouth + over his eye. Still finished the fight + will be back 🥊❤️

Absolutely shocking news that Indigenous darts trailblazer Kyle Anderson has passed away, aged just 33. A fantastic bloke who it was an honour to get to know. Rest In Peace ‘The Original’ 💔

Jeff Fenech has woken and communicated with nurses after successful 5-6 hour surgery in Bangkok to replace a badly damaged heart valve and drain his lungs. There’s a risk of infection and lungs will need more draining but surgery has gone very well and he’s sleeping in recovery.
Just got a call from Jeff Fenech to say surgery on his infected heart valve has just been scheduled for tomorrow night. He sounds dreadful and is in shocking discomfort but appreciates the calls and messages of support he has received from Mike Tyson and thousands of others.
Australia has a new boxing world champion! Congrats

After weighing only 126.3lbs Liam Wilson has claimed the official scales have been “tampered with” to allow Emanuel Navarrete to make weight. Wilson says he checked his weight on the same scales “20 mins earlier” and was just under 130lbs

After a covid-positive xmas and NYE I’m suitably excited for the imminent end of isolation and the big year ahead.
Happy New Year good people 🎉 see you in 2022 🥊
The WBO has raised the stakes for Tim Tszyu v Keith Thurman with the decision that Tszyu will be stripped of his world title if he loses the 155lb non-title fight with Thurman

Fan favourite Stevie Spark has announced his retirement from boxing at 28. The Viking’s final bout was a robbery in Mexico but his career will be best remembered for that upset win over Montana Love in Cleveland and for jumping up in weight to face Tim Tszyu at late notice 👏
Great news! The legendary Jeff Fenech has had successful open heart surgery to replace a leaking infected heart valve and is now recovering in hospital. The surgeon is happy with how the six hour operation went ❤️
Australia’s Jai Opetaia is world champion again! Opetaia dominated the majority of the rematch but had to weather a late storm against 39 year old warrior Mairis Briedis

Increasingly likely cruiserweight king Jai Opetaia’s next fight will be on the huge 23 December show in Saudi Arabia headlined by heavyweights Anthony Joshua v Otto Wallin and Deontay Wilder v Joseph Parker 🥊
