o please god no
Re: Michael Brodie
Told me himself at the Gomez Johannesson fight he was coming back, and its been mooted on numerous occassions.
May be going to that show, I know Hookie is going, so it'll be interesting to see how he looks. Rest of the show is very Home fighter V stiff though, painfuly so in some. Believe its being promoted by Olly harrison.

Re: Michael Brodie
Make sure you buy the Daily Post tomorrow boys, all the ticket prices are there...or go to http://www.dailypost.co.uk/sport-news/boxing
:)
Just spoken to Shane Thomas - Doran's coach - and he said Brodie is apparently looking in good shape....he looked bloody awful on TV six months ago so I hope he is back on form.
Terry, see you there, if you need picking up from the station call me but just get off at Shotton and it's a two minute walk (dodging bullets)
.....if anyone else wants to meet up for a beer PM me...

Re: Michael Brodie
Manchester's Michael Brodie, a former undefeated British, Commonwealth and European super-bantamweight champion, launches his return to the ring later this month in Wales (May 23) against an opponent yet to be announced.
Brodie has been out since a rampaging Scott Harrison destroyed him in four rounds with body shots in Manchester in June 2005 in a crack at the WBO featherweight title. Before that, Korea's rampaging In-Jin Chi took him out in seven with head and body shots for the vacant WBC featherweight title, after a gallant draw between them for the same title. The smooth-boxing Brodie possesses a beautiful array of punches and plenty of snap, including a cracking left hook to the body but clearly doesn't like it downstairs himself and has always been a man who marks up easily. He is one of those 'unlucky' fighters, too. As well as the Chi draw, Michael looked to have well-licked American Willie Jorrin for the vacant WBC super-bantamweight title in Manchester way back in 2000 but for a horrible verdict.
After four major world title cracks, you wonder how much the 35-year-old stylist has left but he was fighting well against Harrison until those body shots undid him.

Barneys a bit of a shoite talker alright - tries to be their mate instead of asking the questions that we want to hear asked.Captain Hook wrote:I did mate he souned punchy as hell, that's why I'm worried.....

But saying that I doubt the guys get much if anything for coming on and probably only come on becauses its an easy gig and pretty much just a half hour long ass kissing info-mmercial for them.
Any boxing show no matter how crap is better than none I suppose!

Re: Michael Brodie
This isn't good news, he's been in some wars, you can't help but fear for him.

Re: Michael Brodie
give brodie a chance he looked good in the gym and lost alot of weight.. it will take a good 3 or 4 fights to get rid of his rust, then see what he's like... i love brodie to come back good, 
Re: Michael Brodie
Didn't his ex missus really take him to the cleaners? And it's due to that financial burden he is coming back?
Hopefully he can earn a few quid and get out safely

the way he was treated by the wbc after that jorrin farce was a joke.
Re: Michael Brodie
After the Chi draw, when Chi was originally declared the winner, of course, Jose Sulaiman gave Chi the WBC belt as an act of sympathy - and then included the price of it in the WBC bill to promoters Matchroom.
Naseem Hamed stopped Brodie in 32 seconds in Hamed's last bout in the amateurs.
