Chuckle.... That's right, being able to fight is a pre-requisite for knowing how to right, that's why when people threaten to kick my head in, I generally look around to see if I can find a dictionary. Irrefutable logic. Two rights make a wrong in this instance. It could be irrefutable logic, but I...

Haye, Greenberg and Froch shouldnt even make the shortlist. They're fine as UK prospects, but world prospect of the year?? I dont think so Lightsoot. I have been impressed with Rocky Juarez although I read he struggled in his last fight.

I expect Froch to beat Dodson but he wouldnt have it all his own way. A championship fight, against an determined opponent with ability would be a good test for Froch. I thought he did quite well against Page but it's difficult to measure his performance because we don't know how good Page is. Lets ...

You can bet Vincent is very confident going into this.

Until Audley fights a good, dangerous or live opponent those who disapprove will always blindly criticise him. But then again so will his fans find a way to justify his actions. There seems to be no middle ground with peoples take on Harrison. I have a question. What has Harrison learned by going to...

Does anyone know what the judges scorecards were at the end of 10 completed rounds? I'd be very interested to know. Thanks.

Magee should win this at a cantor, perhaps in similar fashion to when he beat Jon Thaxton. Vincent looked good against David Walker and David Barnes, but neither of them are fit to pull Magee's pint.

This might sound a stupid question, but does anyone think that Elcock could have got up? After been sent sprawling through the ropes by the time the ref reached 6 or 7 Wayne looked fairly coherent as he remained on his backside. But then he kinda shook his head as if to say "Shall I get up?&quo...

Agreed, this situation cannot continue. Either Arthur does an Adrian Stone and move to America (working with Roach) and then come back for his actual contest or he seeks the employment of the UK trainer. Personally, and I don't know the ins and outs, but I thought it was rather odd how a British ch...

Sorry lads, but I have to go for Ottke W PTS. In a similar fashion to most of Sven's fights, closish but deserved. Everyone is saying Ottke is there for the taking, but listen to the remarks of Mitchell and Starie, both of whom aren't too sure who would win a hypothetical Ottke vs Calzaghe match. A...

SKY will be concerned about their prospects graduating into potential world champions. Scott Harrison's lost to Manuel Medina must have been a huge shock to their system. Joe Calzaghe may only hang around for 2 more years. Lennox Lewis (who Sky usually televise) will have retired, as will Johnny Nel...

This may sound stupid but good organisation is important. It's very rare that the small hall shows I attend start on time, sometimes they are anything up to 30-45 minutes late. For people that have to be up early for work next morning this can be irritating because they get home at something close t...

Arthur isn't getting the level of attention that he requires from Roach (perhaps through no fault of Freddie's but the end result is the same). I really think he needs to recruit a full-time trainer or promote one of his existing team to the position of "head trainer" because right now he'...

This is a must win fight for Scott Harrison. His reputation is really on the line here. Althought he doesn't have to change that much in order to beat Medina, the manner in which he boxed in the first fight suggests to me that he'll struggle again. Harrison was as clueless in round 1 as he was in ro...

I too hope Reid gets his shot at Ottke, he's been in the wilderness for long enough and is far more deserving challenger than David Starie. However, he's not had a competitive fight since losing to Joe Calzaghe and I wonder how these WBF tomato cans will have prepared him for Ottke. I wouldn't be su...
