I think the term journeyman should shake the negative connotation it has developed in boxing circles. In any other trade it denotes a person who is experienced and competent but unexceptional. I don't see what's wrong with that. I still do not see what the controversy is. I agree with your post and...

Dont know what the controversy is all about.

The fact is Chisora got out of the chair, took his jacket off, walked over to Haye (with 4 heavies in tow). What do we expect, Haye to ask him out for tea and biscuits??? You are right. people should stop crying about Haye and Chisora, accept it and look forward to the winner fighting Vitali. K2 pr...

Hardly exciting news a journeyman signing up with a promoter is it?

http://news.boxrec.com/news/2012/bbboc-clarifies-their-stance-licence-holders-involved-haye-v-chisora So basically you go before your Area Council and then have your licence removed??? I would bring this up in the forthcoming seminar but i'll be fooked if i'm paying 50 quid for the pleasure. It is ...

Chambers, the daily mail readers actually voted 71% in favour of the fight happening. Even this website who have been completely negative in its coverage seem to be in favour of the fight. This website hasn't been completely negative in its coverage. The news part of it mostly has. The forum is par...

Stujones, I have taken on board your points. There are members on this very forum which would do a better job than some people on the BBBofC. Perhaps if the BBBofC were forward thinking, had an ability to change with the times and a thorough knowledge of the sport (yes I have just wrote that) then I...

Their €3,000 will be missed.

Stujones, You and other doubters should not keep deflecting the real issue although I do not blame you for looking into the whole matter in depth. I will keep on about what for me is the most relevant point and that is the BBBofC are the ones who screwed up in the first place by not banning Chisora ...

Stujones in answer to your question why the Luxembourg federation, Frank W arren dealt with that very point during the initial press conference.

With regards to conflicts of interest what personality in boxing has never come across that in his time in boxing?

A brilliant lad from what I have seen of him, also provided us boxing fans with some magnificent fights, who can forget the Michael Jones fights, then the Macklin fight. They must have took a lot out of him which is why I think he should stay retired as my fear is what someone has already stated, an...

To answer the question in the thread title, for once Froch needs to find his range and not be drawn into a close up slugfest which I feel Bute will attempt to draw him into. Froch needs to box and use his feet instead of simply planting them and wanting to draw Bute into a battle. If Froch was to us...

Bute will make Froch fight all the way. He will be in Froch's face the whole time. You have to say though Froch loves a tear up who can forget the Pascal fight. My heart says Froch on a split decision my head says Bute by a wide points margin. This is going to be a proper fight that will have us all...

This from a 30 second google search. The bloke's a bawbag face up to it and move on. Burns is so down to earth he still works in a sports shop because he doesn't want to let them down ffs! My faith in humanity alone tells me that Burns will take him apart. I congratulate you on your excellent resea...

Ahhhh, Big Lennox you are now bringing in the moral issues and trying to state the case for the BBBofC. You may have a point using that angle although going down that route is always a tentative way, weak and I have to say because of the legal ramifications always flawed. Boxing is a cut throat busi...

Brilliant :) No matter what you say warren delivered a British, Commonwealth and World title shot for a limited fighter like Bellew and was busy arranging a European shot before Tony started mouthing off. Late payments aside which happen in all walks of life i think anyone would say Warren did a gr...

It was hard not to be impressed with David's performance on Saturday night, but..... 1. What will happen when he gets hit cleanly with a hard shot? 2. Will he be able to dig deep when the going gets really tough? 3. Is he a future world #1? He is good but at the moment the answer is no because he h...

I still see the voting is close on a website which has published a lot of negative stuff about the fight.

I think what some people in boxing throughout this fine country are more angry about is, Frank W arren and others have found a perfectly legal/legitmate way of getting round a problem. Its as if they are saying "F**k, they found a perfectly honest way of doing things, we are going to have to pu...

Definitely.

I think the "verbal contract" route is a very hard path to tread. If the argument is about this "promise" surely it should have formed part of the contract for the first fight ? Bellew says it was said, Wazza says no it wasn't. Prove it, either way. If you are correct in what yo...
