[quote="Wales"]Good luck Dan! Always a game jopurneyman, so close against Dwayne Hill, was it... I reckon you were 5 seconds from a win that night mate.[/quote]
haha funny that was.tougher than i thought he was.
thanks bud
[quote="Wales"]Whos the toughest you've fought mate?
Infact
Whos the best boxer? i'd have say khan cos of the handspeed.them combinations he was landin were all bang on the button an like lightening.
Who hit the hardest?without doubt john marshall.i really thought about jackin in after that one.
Who was hardest to hit?chris goodwin was a tricky kid
WHo stood out as someone you thoguht could be special*?andy morris/paul truscutt/rees/mclosky.i'd say make it not special cos to me doin what naz did was special.an i dont think noone will ever be that good.
Dave coldwell.He did a brilliant job,got me some fantastic money and got me in great shape too.just i've always fancied havin a go at self managed purely out of interest for boxing.so what with the recession an losin a day at work i thought it a good time as the extra money will help me out a hell of a lot all being well.
Do not enter into dialogue with "Boxing Tw*t" - he knows very well who your manager was - however he wanted you to answer so he could stir the pot concerning Dave.
Dave Coldwell is an outstanding manager and trainer - and he is a gent to all who are likewise to him!!!
i forgot to mention kevin mitchell on that other post.i'm sure he'll make it to the top.bein honest i used to think he got too side tracked with tryin for the ko.but he seems to be using his brain alot more now.and after that johannsen fight nobody can say he's got no balls or heart.tough as fuk an a smashin kid.theres probably one or two more as well so sorry if i forgot.we'll av to av a rematch so ya can remind M£ lol

I managed myself for a short while and found that I got a lot less work and less money per job, in fairness most managers earn their corn, I earned much better with a manager who took 25% than on my own.

we shall see.so far so good though.i think if your straight with everyone,respect ur elders and or those who are wiser,use your manners and be grateful then you cant go far wrong.but at the same time dont be an idiot cos lifes just not that simple is it.i'm sure i'll make a fair few mistakes and i know some people will try and take advantage an so on but thats life.you live and learn.SMARTER THAN HE MIGHT SEEM T'OWD THORPEY THA KNOWS.

It would have been a Boxing Website that's name was automatically replaced with "spam". So basically he asked if you'd like your message on another boxing forum.
