What's happened to Ian weaver ? I've not seen Martin ward box before but heard his the new sensation ! The draw is obviously very important, but I think 1 silver and 2 bronze medals will be a success. Good luck to all of you

Ward,.Campbell, Evans and Yafai are the pick of that squad for me.
There are genuine medal contenders at several of those weights.
Will be interested to see if sparring with Froch has elevated Ogogo to the level of an international medal contender?....

Would love it if they were - even in highlight format - but I doubt it somehow

I believe he was hoping to get the light heavy spot but I know he has offers to go pro so no doubt he will do nowTerribleTerry wrote:I thought he was turning over because he is out of favour with the selectors?Manchester Massive wrote:Hosea Burton?wrimc wrote:There is a heavy ....Vallily

Re: McCracken names Team GB boxers for World Champs
when luke won the aba's against the talented michael maguire i thought this guy is the real deal, but after reading up some of his loosing scores since im confused ! i know his very tall for his weight and i wish him the best of luck, ian weaver has always impressed me win or loose, i think he will make a better pro, if he dont qualify for 2012 he will almost certainly go pro then, so remember his name......... IAN WEAVER ! one to watch i promise !curtis wood wrote:luke campbell is the bollox i sparred with him about a year ago if it was computer scoring i would of lost 50-0 and thats no exageration he is very very very good

Re: McCracken names Team GB boxers for World Champs
Im dont think Campbell ever beat Maguire in a final,he beat one of the Walsh brothers&someone else in a differant year..He beat Weaver easily last year in the box offs(hes are best bet of a medal in the worlds)its all about the draw tho...jessi wrote:when luke won the aba's against the talented michael maguire i thought this guy is the real deal, but after reading up some of his loosing scores since im confused ! i know his very tall for his weight and i wish him the best of luck, ian weaver has always impressed me win or loose, i think he will make a better pro, if he dont qualify for 2012 he will almost certainly go pro then, so remember his name.........
