Re: British & Irish Top 30 P4P August 2017

I'd have Taylor, Burnett and Yafai higher.

Re: Which current British fighter are you most interested in?

Josh Taylor, Anthony Yarde, AJ, Anthony Fowler.

There's also something that intrigues me about Joshua Buatsi. I remember Andre Ward put a post on Instagram about him and about how he studied boxing day and night and took a notepad and pen with him when he met Ward. I always keep an eye out for him.

Re: Pick a fighter that could beat a great

Valero was ridiculously overrated. I think Witherspoon could beat Ali. Yeah. I was never impressed with Valero when I saw him in spite of his gawdy KO percentage. The people that think he's some amazing talent that never reached his potential lead me to believe they never spent much time actually w...

Re: WHO WINS? Anthony Joshua vs. Audley Harrison

If Josh comes through this one unscathed (and thats a big IF), I hope a unification with Wilt Chamberlain is made. What a fight that would be. :bag:

Re: Callum Smith vs. Eric Skoglund - TBA

Butler v Hall on the card as well. It's not like a new Hearn signing to go straight into a proper fight. So I'll believe it when I see it. Announcement on that card next week by the look of it. No question that will be a final eliminator for Burnett if the case. IBF recycling Hall again as usual. I...

Re: Destroy Your Idols.

Roy Jones Jr. Lost twice to Antonio Tarver, which was the beginning of a streak of 7 losses in 12. After beating Jeff Lacy in 09, he was demolished in 1 round by an average Danny Green. Has somewhat tarnished his legacy by continuing to fight bums for no apparent reason (unless he's skint). Oh and I...

Re: Lomachenko's Accuracy

Easily the most talented technical boxer i've seen in my short 20 years of life. As others have said, Loma needs a few names on his record to really boost himself into the stratosphere. Theres plenty of guys i'd love to see him get in with:
Gervonta Davis
Mikey Garcia
Leo Santa Cruz
Rigo

Re: Pac is entitled to retire in dignity ...

Whatever happens he is one of the greatest fighters I have seen in my lifetime and will without doubt go down in history.

I'm torn as to what I want him to do I can't work out wether i'd love to see him have one last go at it or wether i'd like to see him call it a day.

I'd have Lemieux as winner purely based on Saunders not living the life of a boxer. He'll be gassed after a few rounds.
