Re: Guillermo Rigondeaux vs Jazza Dickens and undercard. RBR.

Jazza has had a successful operation on a double break to his jaw and his doing fine. A huge thanks to referee Howard foster and the doctors at ringside for the job they done in the bout and post fight. Jazza is very disappointed but will come back. He's very thankful for all of the support. The vi...

Re: Can you think of a worse world heavyweight champion......

Are you for real? That one win puts him way above most who've held the crown in recent history, Haye, Bruno etc. I'm taking a break from Fury topics now, the guy can't win.

Re: MBC sick note

Not really mate. Theres only 2 or 3 boxers that signed with MBC that post on here. There are around 800 boxers licensed by the bbbofc. They dont seem to grumble or moan. It's also fair to point out that the MBC boxers have a bit of an axe to grind because they were refused licenses from the bbofc f...

Does this mean Lee Murtagh will be Reffing as well as Promoting? Is this in the best interest of b...

Re: Am I the only one who enjoyed the fight?

Glad others enjoyed it too, like most of us knew it was never going to be a Hagler-Hearns type of fight, The worst comment I have heard was a someone at work who said it was so bad he turned it off after the first round! What a load of bullshit, he hadn't even seen it :doh:

Having been listening to my mates and other negative comments on social media, I was wondering did anybody enjoy the fight? I know it was billed as the 'fight of the century' and I think a lot of people got taken in by all the hype, and some of my mates who are only casual fans thought it was going ...
