Sky give everyone what they want...AJ v Miller Gloves Are Off

[@southwest6032]

I still want to hear the rap AJ done in Millers Interview

[@mikethompson7132]

@@southwest6032 i think thats the whole reason they wont show it , aj is embarrassed about it so he wont let them :)

i still want AJ to be slated for being a black racist drug dealer

[@rushilpatel986]

That's nice Skysports it really is, but AJ v Miller would be preferable.

[@HH-gq7zo]

And the full footage of Whyte chisora

[@grocksta]

Joshua made himself look silly. Sky would have to heavily edit it and it would be pointless. Once Joshua is done it will be uploaded quicker then u can say....

[@knockoutbox6940]

You’re never going to see it Joshua got exposed and crumbled was nearly crying

[@rushilpatel986]

That could be true, especially now they wouldn't want to give miller any attention !

[@mcminn94]

Mad that not one of these fought each other after this

[@incredibleXMan]

Disappointing.

[@ezza-and-friends]

They need more of these with the current crop to drum up interest ryder saunders Smith eubank

[@gunitsoilder3192]

I'd love to see a table with callum Smith saunders eubank and john Ryder would be epic

[@HarryMav-ct5bo]

Great idea!!!!!

[@dantedlane2]

@@gunitsoilder3192 smith fight canelo on 4 weeks notice

[@ronancoughlan6657]

Andy Lee went onto win the WBO Middleweight World Title in great fashion in America against Korobov. Macklin was stopped by Heiland which likely stopped his progression or any further cracks at a belt. Murray followed with defeats to Martinez and GGG, since then he fought for Minor titles, mixed bag of wins and losses. Darren Barker lost his belt to Sturm in Germany. Very interesting chat. I'm bias as a Lee fan I think he was a level above the others imo. But typically Boxing Politics prevents many of these decent bouts being made unfortunately. This would have been a great World Boxing Series

[@crazycarper7267]

Gloves are off "Domestic level"

[@lionblue3449]

This was a massively under rated time in boxing, amazing stories around that table ,4 of the most under rated British and Irish boxers and all top guys

[@abizzle100]

Looking back Prior to Canelo & Jacobs, Murray gave GGG his hardest fight up to that point. Murray also went up to super middle and kept up with Groves. Tough bloke

[@nsmethers6095]

And robbed twice fighting for world titles in the champions backyards. So close to legendary status yet so far.

[@STILLNIGHTPEARL]

@@nsmethers6095 he definitely won against Martinez.

[@jaymule7342]

This show is unbelievable I get chills when these drop haha I’m serous I’ll put this up against any show ever. Having past and present fighters surrounding a round table is so cool. Sky Sports you are truly killin the game with these‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥

[@soldierofgod349]

Ffs calm down mate lol

[@jaymule7342]

Kevin Stewart when it comes to boxing, never!!😂. You shoulda saw me when Roy Jones Jr was on I almost lost it. The man was my childhood.

[@thekylagracieshow]

@@jaymule7342 same here mate I was buzzing when I saw roy...hands down best boxer ever

[@lime2010]

Andy Lee is the only that deserves to be at that table

[@fitprotunes]

Super Middleweights would be good: Froch, De Gale, Groves, Eubank Jr and Ward

[@katrinataylor8307]

Why not ggg

[@SiLoMixMaster]

@@katrinataylor8307 GGG is not currently a 'super middleweight' - as a pro he's always fought 1 division lighter down at middleweight. GGG did break George Groves' ribs in sparring but as of June 2020 he has not yet fought at super middleweight as a pro. Billy Joe Saunders has though so he could be included in the list that the OP mentioned.

[@jackrobbie6313]

And Billy Joel

[@thespecialistmvm]

Ward is King

[@thevoiceofreason3087]

this is a very weird looking aj miller gloves are off

[@CerebroLDN]

Really good show, would be great to see this with current fighters or recently retired

[@richardlester4670]

Please get all the Young and Upcoming and Talented fighters around the table ones like Tank Davis Stevenson Garcia and any others that are willing and deserving to be. I’m pumped at the thought 💭 of it...

[@colfor6167]

This is the earliest Sky Boxing has ever released a Gloves Are Off. Look forward to the AJ/Miller sitdown 2035 :)

[@kie1996]

I'd love to see Benn, Eubank, Collins, Watson

[@owensimpson7156]

There’s a Eubank, Collins, woodhall, Jones jr and calzaghe one if that is close enough

[@peterd4054]

chuck in a james toney as well.

[@AlAdams13]

A table with Canelo, GGG, Saunders, Eubank jr, and Smith. And a translator

[@markacadey3313]

The way every sky sports video is spammed with AJ vs Miller comments 😂

[@dirtycharlatan9746]

Sad thing about this round the table is. None of these guys went on to fight each other. Who is to blame for that apart from corruption in boxing.

[@JKelly3651991]

Sky need to do more of these shows. Fitzgerald, Fowler, Cheeseman and possibly Ammo williams if they're keeping it solely Matchroom. Smith and Brook are beyond these guys or I would have added them.

[@ivan363]

I really would love the same series with UFC fighters 🏆

[@bazzaplayz]

Want a heavyweight one

[@huffi1]

Can we get somebody better than Jonny Nelson to host this?

[@tytus9618]

All decent fighters, but GGG wreaked havoc in their division for years.

[@dhawks4056]

What the!! A little push, a little pull, 80,000 fans in The arena and still no Carl froch. Bet Adam got a monster text off froch 😂

[@fearinwaves]

Is there anywhere to watch Groves-Murray gloves are off?

[@gunitsoilder3192]

What a shame not one of these lads fought each other.....

[@Mark-hu9tf]

Only just found this! Shame they never fought each other.

[@TrentNonpareil]

Andy Lee would knockout everybody at that table including Johnny Nelson.

[@gunitsoilder3192]

He wouldn't of KO'd Macklin or Murray.....but barker was always their to be hurt

[@tonygunk2674]

Johnny Nelson was low key underrated as a world champion

[@TrentNonpareil]

He absolutely would have knocked out Mathew Macklin. Face first just Like Jamie Moore did em. Cheers from Vegas

why say lowkey in this statement? its a social media buzzword.

[@daystate123]

That random sticky out hair is affecting my OCD....I'm off 😂

[@darrenbarker946]

Namesake fantastic man x

[@tonygunk2674]

How did we go from Calzaghe, Collins, Benn and Eubank to these 4 donuts

[@Calpat430]

None of them Fights ever happened

[@jimipaddy]

Why does everyone interrupt Matthew macklin, no one let's him talk

[@CarlF88]

Andy lee was the best around that table and by some distance

[@lewislee6226]

💯💯💯

[@asadr4264]

Martin Murray the best out of these.

[@GibboHibboWibbo]

You’ve never seen Andy Lee then

[@jackrobbie6313]

When was this done?

[@81chipper89]

Think it was 2013 but not sure.

[@darrenbarker946]

Andy and Darren x

[@darrenbarker946]

Barker wins x😊

[@Mcfc2Rich]

The whale music in the intro is beautiful. 🐳

[@chrisbray9938]

Been done yesterday hasn't it with the old deniiro touch up from the Irish man 😂

[@markg9653]

Who was the best of the four?

[@jamesheath7601]

Andy Lee

[@vinr3154]

I think Andy Lee is the best of this lot!

[@kylewillis7087]

I've got a suggestion AJ Vs Miller......

[@CJAFCN5]

Andy lee by far & wide the best fighter at that table

[@mikeoxmall3323]

Almost at AJ vs Miller

[@baileytaylor5079]

Tyson fury vs Anthony Joshua Evander Holifeild vs mike Tyson 3 Card along with miller and Anthony Joshua gloves are of PPV

[@AlAdams13]

Come on now Sky, let's see Big Baby n AJ

[@VR46314]

This would be good with the Lennox Lewis era

[@katrinataylor8307]

There is

[@danielh3373]

Not quite AJ vs Jarrell Miller

[@user-re2ft7iu4m]

Make more with new fighters

[@mondachewon2873]

Who are these guys

[@99570Awesome]

You know exactly what we want SSB but you just keep teasing us.

[@TimmyTurner421]

Super Saiyan Blue

[@ezza-and-friends]

I would back murray to come out on top out of these lott

[@itree4]

How is Hopkins not here? 20 title defenses and he's not here?

[@mrsugar2352]

I’m almost certain none of these ever fought each other my memories not great but why upload this if everything anyone ever says is irrelevant?

[@tonygunk2674]

Thats right none of them fought each other. Imo Andy Lee beats them all

[@jrcash1560]

middle got the best pound for pound

[@benjaminunanaowo2929]

Should invited GGG like they did with Roy Jones

[@ayotech815]

Big drama show

[@doom14125]

There's a reason this has 54K views its cause no one knows who they are sadly

[@ryanmmale79]

I’d love to see AJ, Miller and the Head of the Drugs commission. Commissioner wins... flawless victory!

[@NorthernBoxer]

Heavyweight one

[@kabl00muk94]

👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

[@CPFCPlumber]

AJ-Miller...Come on Sky!!!!!!

[@Ryan-ne1dr]

Wake me up when the Joshua vs Miller Gloves are off is released

[@thaotranthu8684]

21s”

[@T_money1738]

Andy Lee beats the other 3 with ease in my opinion

[@jamiewoods4782]

AJ Miller please!

[@paulflynn2712]

Can't go from the guys in the super middle weight program to these guys, no offence to them, but their not in the same league

[@tariqbenammar7373]

They never fought each other sadly

[@kungpowmike9799]

in the end these fights didn’t happen Lol

[@crashingdown6924]

After this interview if I correct maklin did nothing, lee became champ, what about the other 2..

[@81chipper89]

Barker lost his title against Sturm, mainly due to injury. I think his hip 'went' in the 2nd round. Murray went on to have some big fights against Golovkin and Groves but, despite giving a good account of himself, he came up short. Very unlucky man as he probably should have got the decision in his first 2 world title fights against Sturm and Martinez.

[@boxingbarbarians]

lets keep disliking their videos until AJ Miller gloves are off gets released

[@georgec2894]

For a split second I thought it might be.... nope - not what we wanted!

[@pp3763]

More C RATED UK FIGHTERS!!

[@dmsportsdebate9302]

The gloves are off jobsworth edition

[@81chipper89]

Two world champions at that table. And two that came very close. I think they deserve respect.

[@gymhead]

Sooner or later there will be no interest in the AJ Miller GAO.... sky you need to get it out now while the time is right!

[@joealexander4000]

Martin Murray best fighter ever not to be a world champ

[@armandoarmas6876]

Should of had Gennady golovkin on this table to make Peeps on the table good boys

[@fragglebean436]

Why is Martin Murray here 😂😂😂

[@THISISLolesh]

why not?

[@skipeveryday7282]

Held the Wbo really awkward big rangy southpaw who else has been making noise at 160 in the last 10 years??

[@WAFFLEZZ_92]

Besides andy lee, sergio martinez fucked them all up lol

[@Cobmetal1]

By far the weakest roster of fighters out of all episodes.

[@rosscowan3612]

Miller deserves zero air time !!!!

[@VR46314]

That’s all he’s got hahaha

[@happygilmore7115]

I liked all these guys, I think Andy was the weakest tho.

[@scoobysnacks209]

everyone is a world champion in boxing boxers not taking fights at certain times blah blah a real fighter will take any fight .ufc all the way

[@robertpirsig5011]

UFC fighters pull out of fights all the time

[@p.p.bp.p.b6103]

Who tf are this guys?

[@thomaskendell8146]

If you're seriously ask that question you clearly don't know boxing

[@jameconradi8269]

I liked the other one with RJj, eubank etc who do fook are these guys 🤷

[@TrentNonpareil]

Great boxers. Particularly Andy Lee. Respect

[@Boxsmart101]

None of them fought, just another monumental fuck up by Eddie Hearn.

[@321dkny]

Barkers pure shite Murrays worse Macklins o.k. Andy lees good stuff

[@cjns5253]

Aj vs serial drug cheat

[@manzilla48]

Not the best middleweights here, no one is expecting Hagler and Martinez but they could have found better than Martin Murray

[@tobysewell681]

What a joke none of these guys fought each other

[@teem4800]

This was boring

[@alberlusconi1]

No way im watching this yawn fest. You have one more chance before I unsubscribe Sky. AJ vs Miller !!!!!!!!!!!
