Liam Gallagher fans make four-word dig after performance at Anthony Joshua fight

Liam Gallagher performed at the Anthony Joshua vs Daniel Dubois fight on Saturday night and fans were left divided over his singing and voiced their opinions on social media

Liam Gallagher's stint at Wembley Arena for the Anthony Joshua vs Daniel Dubois bout has been met with ridicule from some quarters of the public.

Devotees of the Oasis lead, who is poised to hit the road in 2025 alongside sibling Noel Gallagher for their first joint tour in a decade and a half, swarmed X, formerly Twitter, questioning his vocal prowess. A tweet that caught fire suggested Oasis had cashed in on ticket sales before the bombshell that "Liam Gallagher can't sing".

The post read: "Oasis selling tickets before revealing Liam Gallagher can't sing." This incited fury among fans of the 52-year-old, although many praised Gallagher's recent Wembley performance.

Gallagher serenaded the crowd with three tunes pre-fight. Reactions varied, with one supporter commenting: "I wish people would realise that he's been touring all year and has sounded incredible for 99.9% of it. He has one more gig and then nothing until next summer, this is NOT representative of what he'll sound like when the time comes."

Another leapt to the singer's defence, stating: "Aye but he's the one with the incredible band and not you so he's doing something right plus his voice is great what do you expect if he's been on the road all year."

Yet, some attendees were less impressed by Gallagher's vocal display, as one critic mentioned they have "never been able to sing".

One critic expressed their distaste for Gallagher's vocal style, saying: "We call it nasal speeching in our house. Never could get though a whole album at once, probably still can't. [SIC]" Meanwhile, musician Geordie Greep pondered aloud: "What does Liam Gallagher need 3 guitarists for?"

Others reminisced about Gallagher's earlier years, speculating on the decline of his singing abilities, with one individual remarking: "Why are people acting like they were unaware Liam's voice had gone? It was gone when Oasis were finishing and it didn't come back when he did his own stuff."

Nonetheless, some fans argued his vocals have simply matured over time, asserting "he's just older now and of course his voice sounds different".
