  1. They do don't they mate,their amateur programs over there are very good & they really put themselves through it?Yeah I agree,smith is game & gutsy but he's outclassed in every way by bivol,I rate bivol,a solid skilled fighter.didnt know that about kovalev,but shows you how they will only have the very best represent them yes light heavy is bubbling nicely
  2. agree with gnasher about the amateurs,for a fighter it's like serving your apprenticeship isn't it people always say the ams is a different animal to the pros,and while that may be 100% true,a good solid amateur background really is something that will stand a fighter in good stead in the pros look at fighters like GGG & Loma,big am backgrounds & it shows when they fight yes mick Gorman/dubois would be a good fight?
  3. Like I say about yarde and some others,while being young,fit,strong & carrying a bit of power,it's still too early to tell,to make any real judgements due to the level of fighters he's faced time really is on his side though,got plenty of time & looks strong in the ring,one to keep an eye on He's got a lot going for him,has he got a chin?can he dig in & adjust when it's not going his way,that we've yet to find out
  4. Johnny garton vs Conor benn is a good fight?I'd pick garton yeah will be interesting to see mick,dmitry bivol vs joe Smith jr tonight
  5. Yeah,big ask for mikey,and one that he won't get past
  6. Yes yarde looks to have all the right attributes but it's very very early to tell judging on his opposition,you can only fight who's in front of you & he's done that but opponents have bin poor,let's see how he gets on tonight? Tomorrow night bivol fights aswell & the 16th is spence v Garcia i rate Garcia a lot & respect the fact he's game & up for a proper challenge,but can't see him getting past spence at that weight
  7. Boxing on tonight at the royal Albert hall?Top of the bill Liam Williams vs joe mullender James branch is on the bill,looking forward to watching him fight,also fighting is johnny garton,yarde,dubois & reid

    New Low.

    Doesn't really concern me tbh,if people want to eat that s**t it's up to them,if I'm in there I'll make sure they give me a proper sausage roll
  9. Speaks volumes that they seem to value bragging rights & bizarre posturing over monetary gain,the staple reason for most crime? And not realising that a proper reputation speaks for itself,it's not born out of music videos & other things like that, those that know don't speak and those that speak don't know as they say
  10. Not sure mate,first time seeing the vid..there's loads knocking about though a music video sounds like the sort of trivial matter that a death would occur out of in that crowd though..
  11. About "shaving" people & kicking down doors & there's even the ol' "free my bro" chucked in there...that's another thing,it's all attention seeking with these people, death is an excuse to start throwing up signs & saying "rip my g" one of em gets locked up it's reason for a "free my don",all in aid of saying "look at me I live that life", Stark raving mad
  12. I believe that's called "drill" music ?
  13. It's a vicious circle that's just going to keep whirling & whirling imo...those who've been living that lifestyle for generations breed it into the young ones,the ones who are impressionable bring other impressionable people into the fold,and a lot of lost folk seek that culture out for a sense of belonging,family etc to carry a blade is as commonplace as brushing your teeth for some,and then there is the lifestyle,you've got the young upstarts "going country" in awe of "olders" & they really will go to extreme lengths to bolster their reputation... it really is all around th
  14. Yeah it was never going to be plain sailing was it,I too thought it wouldlve paid to be on the offensive a bit more,but he still got his job done in my opinion
  15. Whatever way you look at it,and what ever your opinion of the fight,Tyson done well,whether you thought he won or it was a draw or he lost,it is what it is Many don't,and never will take to tyson,but you can't deny his style is awkward & effective
  16. Never understood the sparring footage being leaked & the "I done this to so n so in sparring" lark
  17. Okolie shouldlnt be trying to gain momentum with sparring footage.....?Taking too much heed of sparring is always a bad sign,whether from fan or fighter & as gnasher said it is classless & should stay in the gym
  18. He did,placed his shots well,mixed it up,genuinely did everything right tonight??
  19. ? what can you do eh...yeah,yarde-buatsi is a good fight,personally I think it's too early to tell for yarde at the minute,you can only beat who's in front of you but he hasn't really had a solid test yet.he has all the right attributes though,just need to test them against a decent opponent. yeah ted cheesemans a proper fighter isn't he ?Just gets in there & gets stuck in,sometimes when he doesn't need to,but FairPlay to him he's definitely old school
  20. The fights will happen? Its just a case of "when"
  21. ? Any particular up n comers you rate at the minute?
  22. No problem, yeah I understand that about weight limit at heavy mate,being in cracking shape & being strong & fit will see you potentially go all the way,I don't want people to think I dont respect wilder when I say s**t,as weird as that sounds?As I respect all men who get into the ring from the lowest level to the highest,I'm more on about his technique,footwork & fundamentals, i rate Tyson fury,and would agree he uses his size very well,which is a great way to apply yourself really,using what you've got to the best of your advantage,and it is all relative to the weight isn't
