Re: Sky's domestic line up
Good man! Clarity is nice. Your qualifier signifies Miranda's declining form; he's now losing to prospects lacking notable wins. I don't think Miranda-Bellew is a poor fight, as the former has recently shown in losing efforts that he can make prospects and fringe-contenders work hard for victory. I ...

Re: Sky's domestic line up
Where did i say Miranda is a gatekeeper at light-heavy? Where did i say Despaigne is world class? You cant deny having Miranda on his record isnt a good scalp, plus Miranda is better than Karpency and Kuziemski. You claimed that Miranda only "looses to good solid world class operators". S...

Re: Sky's domestic line up
Skys lack of boxing schedule isnt really a problem because you have three other channels showing a decent amount of boxing with Allegedly channel, Channel5 and Goodwins set up. I think your summary of Mirandas last few fights is a bit harsh because if you look at his record he only really looses to...

Re: Is Anthony Joshua the next Frank Bruno?
Had Joshua officially lost the Savon bout, would any of you be excited over him? This gold medal is completely manufactured. Sorry to sound negative but he lost two Olympic fights. Two! We should find this insulting to the intelligence but instead many of you are lapping it up. Bizarre. Savon fight...

Re: Tyson Fury v David Haye
I think Bonte dislikes Haye and wants to make things difficult for him, which means not giving him a Klitschko bout or ensuring tough terms reached through difficult negotiations. Risk may be a factor as well, given that Vitali is clearly declining. Povetkin is a confirmed ducker and Valuev was offe...

Re: Tyson Fury v David Haye
Haye got €12.5M for the wlad fight, that was gross and before fees ect, so depending on the exchange rate at the time it was alot of money but I would say after everything it was approximatley £8-9M ! I'd love to know how many of Vitali and Wladimir's opponents with the exception of Lennox Lewis ha...

Re: Bomber Vs Miranda
Miranda landed plenty on the chins of Saunders, Despaigne, and Chilemba, yet none of them were seriously hurt. If he should be considered a venerable puncher at 175, his results in the division should support that label. However, one must go back several years and pounds to find much evidence of imp...

I just wanna fight on a regular basis and see how good I am or can be!! I don't claim to be the second coming of Ali but I dedicate myself and just wanna know how fa...

Re: Richie Woodhall gives BoxRec a run down of Team GB
Not sure why there is an obsession with painting the Joshua loss as a shaft job...from what I see it was a razor thin decision....bit classless I say. Let's save the moaning for the real bad decisions The decision was fair. It's easy to complain when a British boxer loses a close fight in their opp...

Re: Tyson Fury: Yay or Nay?
No one claimed in those articles that Fury would box for a world title immediatly after beating Chisora or that Fury will have defeated Povetkin by a certain date.
