The bar for poor posters has already been set, and set very high.

Like most people, I was in the heart-says-groves-head-says-degale camp. Like most, i'm chuffed to bits. The way JD celebrated when the MC said "and still undefeated" shows what a complete plum he is. Also, what does this mean for the reputation of Booth? He might become a real go-to guy fo...

Haye was right not to share the camera with Wlad. Wlad's a smart guy, great talker and would have easily made Haye look even more of a fool than Haye made himself look by his childish antics. I don't recall Haye making me cringe like this before; Wlad really established himself as the Alpha Male as ...

Agree with the Majority. Sky Sports is slick, professional and seem to pick staff who love their respective sports. (I particularly enjoy their cricket coverage). Sky Sports is not a boxing channel, but to my knowledge IS showing more fights than terrestrial. BBC and ITV DUMPED Boxing hard in recent...

Ah yes, but it's Audley that's taken the poundings in the ring.

IF Haye cleans up and vacates, that leaves a fragmented and weak division. If Audley has longevity (and given the number of 'wars' he's been in, I suspect he has) then him getting a title chance is not outside of the realms of possibility. Come fight night, his opponent could trip and hurt himself ...

Great thread. I remember Gary Lockett was in the mix too. I went for Williams, but it was time time of personality and partisanship too so there were many reason to have a favourite. They were great domestic level fighters; Great fights were too be had and the fans knew it. I remember it as a very f...

Classic line “This will be it, this will be the last time the ring announcer introduces Danny Williams — unless another guy called Danny Williams comes along, which is always possible.” It's just like how I imagine Will Ferrell's 'Ricky Bobby' from Taladega Nights would announce his retirement. :D

British:
What if there were decent medical facilities ringside at Eubank-Watson.
World:
What if Tyson hadn't done time.

I paid full wack for Haye but decided to watch this for free on stream.
Even the guys watching the free stream wanted their money back

indeed, the beers seem to be kicking in.
Your link works great for me, thanks for sharing; top man.

I'm unsing the link posted a few posts earlier and it work for me.
Thanks guys.

I came onto this site to make sure someone had started a Jim Watt thread.
Another fight night (and build up) ruined by that complete twat.
How the hell is he still in employment?

Oh yeah, well done David.

If Reid Ottke was anything to go by, if Haye starts seriously troubling sasquatch, he'll get warned by the ref to stop.
"nein nautiz wiz za fists" sort of thing.

RIP Darren.
Very sad news.
He wasn't the kind of character you could dislike.

I wonder if he knew how many kinds words would be said and how much support he would have.
I suspect he didn't...and that's the choker.

is the MC/compere the guy that was in saved by the bell????? i was thinking the exact same thing A.C. Slater aka mario lopez. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_Lopez looking at the photo it must be him! Yeah it's him. He does a lot a presenting and boxing presenting in particular. When Latino figh...

I thought is was very very good show. Great idea to mix the new with the old as boxing fans tend to like hearing about the history. The show didn't suck up to any fighter, any promoter. It was a knowledgeable and honest discussion. It's not anything like Buncey's boxing thing on Setanta or the old S...

This is a clip of Cornelius Bundrage (who took part in Contender 2).
It's a 2005 fight I stumbled upon on youtube (pre contender).
Bizzare fight (1:17 clip). Worth a click if you haven't already seen it.

A few years back there were tons of middle - light-middle fights to be made. I probably can't even remember most of them: Takaloo Lockett Alexander Farnell (I put this in for fun) Williams (secret) Elcock They never really squared off much though. From their point of view, there's no real point. So ...

but the level of dislike for him as a person that I've heard, from people who don't even have a good reason to base it on, is very distasteful to me and typically British. Hate to say it but a lot of that is down to his skin colour, I was in a bar in town watching the Limond fight and the level of ...

You look at Ingle when the cards were being finalised - He knew Witter was beaten fair & square, Bradley done more than enough to win that fight. Class & lack of it was so evident. When you say lack of class, do you mean Ingle? I made up my mind about ingle a while back....I think it ws whe...

I think there's a big difference between "I though I won it" and "I was robbed!". I was at no point was I convinced he actually believed he was truly hard done by. It was a difficult interview for witter as his personality is based on his confidence/arrogance which were silenced....

What about Michael Grant?
I seem to remember he was pretty much "the next unified champion" before he got smashed up.

I'd say Wlad Klitchko against Sanders too.
Probably not many people's idea of a "Zero", but he never recovered the "Hero" tag, that's for sure.

Personally I don't think Maccarinelli is even in the same class as David. That may be true, but issues like natural weight, stamina and fragile hands.. they have a great tendency to bridge class gaps come fight night. If you can't see why Enzo has a chance, then you probably think this a boring fig...
