Jai got that Aussie speed & Samoan power🔥

[@boxingstarsvideos7333]

This guy is a beast. Amazing boxing skills combined with some big power..He will clean the division. Special indeed

[@samuelwtuiolemotu2826]

My first time watching Jai Opetaia fight and the hand speed the quick combinations the constant movement always throwing power punches attacking from angles. It’s like watching Pac-Man Pacquiao Jai Opetaia is the Silent Warrior

[@barrylilley6392]

Jai is a superhero in the small boxing community we have in Australia, bring your champions , our guy Jai will send them all home Humbled 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺💪🥰

[@sg-jx6ql]

Thompson is not a champion .

[@Shadowboxa]

@@sg-jx6qlhe didn’t say he was. Breidis was tho

[@jjw4646]

Cringe comment. But ye Jai is going to be future champ no problem.

[@Shadowboxa]

@@bombercountyblues Jai has a belt. Also Briedis came to him and fought Jai in Aus lol

[@bombercountyblues]

@@Shadowboxa yep., just took that one back bud... that'll teach me to check my facts next time👍

[@nuca5104]

Jai Opetai is a naturally MEAN DUDE!!! Tough to get a smile out of him & his eyes have bad intent in them.

[@user-mg8tw7yo4f]

Yeah, and he has had some trouble on the outside of the ring unfortunately.

[@neddy11]

Make no mistake, the true boxing fans in Australia respect how good Jai is! The pathetic media over here know nothing about the sport & follow each other like sheep only reporting on the same names. All the best with your career CHAMP, stay humble, we're watching.

[@Despisefundamentalists-cm5dv]

Make no mistake about that. Casuals here are equal to Pactards with only ONE name. This guy is the best operator in Australia.

[@KangaJack-ns9gd]

Exactly. Australians are massive casuals. Only one name exists for them, as good as he is going, but this guy is the best operator in Australia.

[@RealRecogniseReal-]

Jai shut Eddie up with the “that’s not what I want, I want to rep my area I want big fights in Australia”😂😂

[@joshhanlon3077]

I want an Australia card with opetaia, Mckean, huni all in 50/50 fights

[@KM-gt3kc]

get it done for us 😂

[@genealogy.digger]

Problem in Australia is that media have their favourites and people follow them like sheep. Opetaia is the nation's best P4P fighter without a doubt but the media would rather focus on rugby league players fighting than real fighters. Damn shame

[@brkway]

Seems like a money haven there ? Money must rule like the iron ✊ in Oz smh

[@Tassiedevil287]

Australian boxing is in good shape atm

[@dgrimshaw8]

With so much bullshit in boxing. People avoiding fights, taking knees and everything else, this lad will gain a lot of fans. Not just because of his ability but his old school attitude! Refreshing to see

[@dgrimshaw8]

Was at the Breidis fight! Problem here in Australia is they historically charge ridiculous PPV prices for terrible fights! Get him a big fight down here Eddie!!

[@treyakasprings]

There’s not a cruiser weight born from his mother who beats this man.

[@Shadowboxa]

I agree. But settle down Fury.

[@davidhaysom2446]

If fury cuts weight he would bang this guy

[@PhflyDan1]

He got that Usyk kinda stare going on. Fury sick too...

[@faaleleinonu8828]

Jai is awesome. Love watching him fight. He’s a fantastic puncher. God bless you JAI..

[@yehnah2680]

First time I heard about Jai was when he was 16 when he made the 2012 Olympic boxing team for Australia

[@Shadowboxa]

No it wasn’t. It was today.

[@izziman3593]

Congrats Uso , May God bless you and your talent, cant wait to see your next fight champ!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@gypsyman1939]

Let’s be honest this interview Eddie. For once play fair bud.

[@Stevenbutterworth1992]

Don’t support a child. There’s a reason no one wants to work with him. The Saudis know too

[@kamakoa]

Congratulations let's go jai opetaia cheehoohooo Yessah

[@SWISSMUSICFC]

Like this guy 🤙🤙🤙

[@user-uj4cp7py6l]

Jai Opetaia is otherworldly on every single level required to be a legendary fighter. He gives me the same buzz as when Mike Tyson started to make his name known in the heavyweight division. I’ll definitely be watching this man’s journey.

[@carldacrochunter]

Jai too good for everyone at Cruiserweight !!!

[@danielday3374]

He fights a lot like Usyk did in the World Series of Boxing when he fought the likes of Joyce. Just too fast, too crafty and has legit power and ferocity. But Thompson isn’t that experienced so I want to see Opetaia in a fight against a better opponent, like a Riakporhe or Goulemirian (if he even starts being active again)

[@Fredthefroggy]

So breidis fight was nothing? Talking about active how many fighters do you see pushing for fights 10 months after a broken jaw

[@danielday3374]

@@Fredthefroggy I was saying Goulemirian isn’t active enough at all. Not Opetaia. I know he beat Briedis but he was 37 and a bit past his peak. I see Opetaia becoming undisputed no doubt, I’m simply stating the next 2 fights I want to see going forward.

[@user-mg8tw7yo4f]

The guy did have a savage Broken Jaw against Breidas, it was literally hanging off his face. Was wondering how he would come back. No problem there.

[@user-mg8tw7yo4f]

@@ChampChamp2024 Breidas was only 36 then. Jai just savaged another contender about 15 hours ago. CRY LOUD, CRY HARD.

[@Despisefrauditors-bj6sf]

@@ChampChamp2024 The fact that Opetaia could still whoop Briedis with a broken jaw is telling, and he just whooped another contender not long ago. All over for you.

[@debrie6319]

Jai and Bivol has similar style 💪

[@danielday3374]

He fights like Usyk, Bivol and Inoue mixed together. He definitely studies all of these guys

[@lukepatterson5367]

🤣🤣🤣

[@one_and_only_1649]

Just like I said he will stop him in 4 rounds absolute beast he would beat Uysk 💯

[@UNDERGROUNDOG]

Now thats a fun fight!

[@irena7777777]

Calm down

[@samuelwtuiolemotu2826]

I have seen a lot Uysk fights on TV Uysk has that same movement as Jai but the hand speed and that sneaky power that Jai has and the Quick Combinations. Is incredible!

[@peternut358]

@@irena7777777I think Opetaia wins

[@dunkalicous]

The only Australian boxer the Australian media want to cover is Tim tzysu & it’s a shame.

[@SO-om2yy]

Tyzyu and ex footy players, the media is the problem. This bloke should be a household name.

[@droppedahugedeuceinwallmart]

dude has all the skills and speed and that looked like theyve added viciousness to his tools

[@JackGallagher2014]

I don’t see many guys wanting to fight him he couldn’t miss against Billam-Smith

[@danielwark3602]

Im one Aussie whos backing this guy. Hes a beast. Lets GOOOO!!

[@paulk1702]

Sure, Thompson was overmatched. But Opetaia walks, talks, looks and fights like the real deal. Get this man at the Industree Group stadium ASAP. Not the Gold Coast, where he had to go for Briedis. Not Melbourne, where Sydney’s Kambosos had to go for Haney. Opetaia should fight at Gosford next! 🥊

[@Mr78nozza]

Eddie is a master promoter

[@meanon4408]

Comments are ridiculous and reactionary as usual when its an impressive stoppage win. I doubt over half of the commentators watched the Breidis fight and just looked at his record. Great performance, plenty of crusierweights will challenge him a lot more

[@user-xp1ox6xi6m]

nobody believed thompson was winning

Eddie you call people off for over matching fighters you got your fighter totally beat up

[@frankielloyd6510]

Eddie’s so quick to ride the train when a British fighter that he raves about gets dismantled why would u tell Jordan to move up to heavyweight when he clearly don’t like he’s chin checked he got whacked hard and crumbled of a cruiser he’s own weight class what makes Eddie or anyone out there think he could stand with heavyweights of today he ain’t got no chance he should stay at cruiser rebuild himself and keep moving and gain experience and met jai again at the top if anything that’s a complete wrong plan of route by Eddie very dissapointing we’ll done to Jordan for taking the fight so early in his career he done he’s best and we’ll done to jai he’s proved he’s gunna more likely be the leader of the division bright future ahead.

Haha ma man Eddie was so bored and so unentertained by the interview. Love you Eddie. Bring better fights for our boy Jai. My advise Jai is go fight in America and Abudabi where the real money is. You don’t make a penny in Australia. Move to greater things. Your people will watch and support you.

I would like to see opetai against billam smith as he could actually give him a fight, cruserweight division is at one of its all time low in talent right about now.

At last someone talking sense hes just beat up a lad with virtually no amateurs experience and is at best british level . Hype is hearns middle name .
