yes...thats why i questioned it...dam misleading buffoon..

and just for the record, there is no way pele reid was ready to be stopped, it was far far too premature in my opinion. but it was nice to see that macdermott whipped himself into shape for the big fight.

Its not easy with all these alphabet titles in todays boxing.

Is your village missing you - or is the pound you thought you had short by a penny?

Rhino,

Whilst Pele Reid was not completely out of it - I cannot argue with the decision - them big lads can hit f*cking hard - the only thing I question is if Reid managed to survive how long John McD would have been able to sustain his onslaught - then things might have got interesting.

Its not the worst stoppage I have seen.

What the hell does that mean..

Anyway, all i wanted to say was that Mcdermott has one a domestic title, no point in going mad about it

Boxrec dear chap if you know either myself or Rhino you will know we like the odd wind up

rhino222 · Post by **rhino222** » 19 Apr 2008, 05:20

perhaps not, but it was not a good one, yes reid had been clocked, but during his career he has shown resilience and an ability to get up and fight on, he was not even down FFS, and was holding onto macdoughnut.

John did well last night - he swamped poor old Pele with shots once he had him rocked and sustained the pressure needed to get the stoppage.

If you weighed the pair up before the fight started you would be praying that John didnt get hurt too badly, such is the disparity in their physiques.

John proved, however, that a well grounded, technically competent fighter holds the aces over the wilder, disjointed style that Pele employs. It was a case of substance over flair in the end.

I was a little disappointed that Pele didnt look more fluid and compact in their last night; it would seem that not even Len and Ritchie Woodhall can iron out his stylistic flaws!

Would be niec to see John in with Danny Williams for the British on the back of his excellent performance last night but does he have he self belief/drive to boss the division domestically? I dont think he does, despite his ability and physical tools.

God shout about McDermott and Williams

Why not McDermott and Harrison?

I like John McDermott - he is a good fighter and would give most heavyweights an argument. I can't see him beating this version of
Danny Williams to be honest. It would be a tall order for him once
Danny started letting his punches go.

But let Williams vacate the title and McDermott can get in there with Sprotty - I think he could win that depending on which Michael Sprott turns up.

What happened last night in the fight? i see it was a 2nd round KO, but was it an early stoppage?

no complaints from Pele or his corner, although he was on his fet and was holding onto Big John for all he was worth when they called it off.

He was rocked, no doubt and it was just a matter of time before he got dispatched completely IMO.

Impressive win for McDermott last night - he let his hands go well once Pele was unsteady

macdoughnut v williams is a ridiculous call, if skelton owned macdoughnut in a minute or so then danny would do exactly the same, no way is macdermott ready to be let loose against williams, not now not ever, 20% of danny williams ko's macdoughnut.

macdoughnut v rogan is a better call.

beat me to it Rhino - I was about to post the exact same post - almost word for word.

McDermott is a fat fornicate - I'm sure he's a nice guy but his condition is a fornicating disgrace to boxing.

McDermott would have his whole handed to him by Williams

McDermott v Rogan would be a good testing fight to find the true level of both fighters

British title has only been about since 1895, English since 2003! Only been fought over 5 times, McDermott is 1-1 in English title fights.

Styles make fights Rhino and McDemott's compact and tidy style could see him fair ok against Danny (depending which Danny turned up of course!)

REmember Williams dismissing Kali Meehan in 30 secs? Who would have thought the Kiwi would go on to give a decent showing in a heavyweight title fight?

I give Big John his dues - he has the size (although not all of it effective weight) and the skills to give any domestic heavy an argument. The skelton shocker was an abberation in my eyes, nothing more.

Steady on Rhino - I might have been impressed with McDermott's skills and finishing last night but I have seen nothing in his attitude or mental make up that will see me back him with my hard earned!

Harrison - McDermott coming to a screen near you.

That's my guess anyway.

Oh and Rhino, how the fornicate can you call someone a McDoughnut

mcdermot is awful

slapped about by skelton.....thrown around like a rag doll

mcdermot has found his level and will not move any higher

Rhino,
It was a good stoppage by the ref mate.
TT has got it right.
I suspect the towel would have come flying in, had the shots kept coming for another 10 seconds.
