Sonny Bill title fight - was it a farce?

there is no way sbw shud b the champ last i checked he hasnt knockd out david tua so wtf is wit dat hes still the numba 1 in nz nt sbw

Why is there so many haters against Sonny Bill??? He is a prime example to our youth that if you put your mind to it you can accomplish many things, and that you dont just neccessarily have to focus on one thing......to all those that think it was rigged/fixed, try taking a punch like that to your head and see if your views change! I think its great to see a kiwi being successful in such a variety of sports at that high level, keep it up Sonny Bill!!! i'm guessing most of your haters are the type that sit on their butts and dont even get involved in any sports, but are great couch commentators haha.......losers!

It's funny how ppl talk up the N.Z heavyweight belt as something that is dear to the hearts.Before SBW announced that he was fighting for the belt,no one gave a stuff who the NZ heavyweight champion was,there was no interest whatsoever, even Shane Cameron relinquish the belt because the lack of interest.SBW is the best thing that could ever happen to NZ boxing since Tua!The exposer that the sport of boxing is getting in NZ + Aus is huge because ppl want to see SBW get KO'd,this means a payday for boxers like Tillman,Tuitaki and co + fighters fighting on the undercards,a payday they otherwise not have gotten.So all those ppl who say that SBW is bad for NZ boxing, please think again!

The only thing real about the fight were Tillman moobs... every other aspect of the so-called fight, could be lumped under the heading of 'joke'.

If I had bet money at the TAB, on Clarence Tillman, I would have made a complaint to the police! That is how sure I am, that this fight was fixed, no different from match fixing in cricket or any other sport.

I live on the Gold Coast in Queensland and watched Clarence Tillman spa with Alex 'LionHeart' Leapai at my boxing gym in Burleigh and I can tell you that CT is a very good boxer. We all thought that he would have knocked SBW out in the 1st or 2nd round, to our surprise SBW has come a long way since we seen him fight here on the GC last year and it was a great left hook to catch CT and good to see SBW go on with the job and finish him before the bell. Unless you have been in the ring with heavy weights and done hard sparing you will never know what it is like and also can't really comment on whether it was a real KO or Not! Well done SBW and I look forward to seeing your next fight. P.S We were changed $49.95Aus to see that fight here and only got to see 2 fights by the time I got home from work, I would pay it again.

- No comment because I can't able to face SBW in the ring. If I'm the one of the SBW's haters, the best thing to do, is to put on my boxing gloves and ask SBW to let's have 3 rounds in the ring. And whatever happen in the ring, so that I think that is the fair and better action you make than talking too much rubbish against your haters.

Yes....and he (SBW) is a joke !

I actually think SBW is an ok guy, I've got nothing against him. His rugby plays can be exciting to watch. This boxing match seemed dodgey. How can a pro boxer with 21 fights not last 1 round... And why did they call it off so quickly? with only a few seconds to the bell it just didn't seem right.p.s guted to anyone who paid 40$ to sky to watch hahaha

Most of the comments sound like jealous attacks to me. Get a life fellas!

I wanna know how a guy can become New Zealand champion fighting against someone who does not qualify for the title?. Effectively SBW fought nobody and was handed the belt. That's like becoming Rugby world cup champs after beating the Barbarians. wtf
