Official boxrec RBR thread - Manchester and Mayweather cards

Im hoping Jamoye can make this atleast semi competitive for a few rounds atleast.

Even if he does get a lead (I don't think he will) Quigg will catch up with him given Jamoye has only had 3 weeks to prepare.

[reggaereggae]

If Joshua can take a punch, he'll rule the heavies

I repeat

[lefty]

Lennox looked raw after 8 fights.

Joshua will look a lot different in two years let alone in five/six years time.

That's a very fair point actually. Lennox was pretty crude initially.

[gazzman87]

How long do you think this "tomato can" will last with Quigg. First fight at super bantamweight and a "world title" shot, not bad.

[lefty]

I still think Wlad Moves better and is quicker on his feet for a similar sized man.

Joshua isn't as good as Wlad?

You saying he is?

[lefty]

This anthem is very tranquil

[Boxerbeetle]

Eff the national anthems!!

[expe]

I've just got a feeling Jamoye will be all wrong for Quigg & might cause an upset here.

I'm probably wrong tho!

If Quigg stands in front of him and trades it will be a decent fight, if Quigg keeps moving side to side he should leave Jamoye swinging through thin air.

Was curious to see the atmosphere.

It is dead !! And a lot of empty seats.

A fight between Quigg and Frampton should see 70% of the purse going to Frampton.

[expe]

Eff the national anthems!!

Doesn't help that our anthem is one of the worst possible, slow, dull and because it mentions God and the queen it doesn't really entice anyone to belt it out.

[lefty]

Gallagher looking like he was holding in a turd there during the anthem.

[Horse]

You saying he is?

Joshua's an eight fight novice. Wlad's a top 10 ATG.

Why compare them?

You say slow but it actually seems very short to me lol. It is rather dull though.

Eddies ego would never allow that.

Because Joshua is being talked about as the next potential heavyweight star and possible dominant champion! Why do you think.

True. The only worse anthem is the Star Spangled Fvcking Banner which goes on forever.

[lefty]

Jamoye has a bit of a legit 'nutter' vibe about him.

[Tarkus]

Cmon Jamoye, it only takes one punch to the jaw.

Dont troll Horse. It's getting too obvious now.

[Neil Gee]

I would pick Frampton to beat Quigg at the moment (before I watch this fight) but I'm open to persuasion. Let's see how he wins...

[Ian1973]

If Joshua can hold up under pressure and take a shot, then we are probably looking at the next dominant heavyweight champ IMO.

Joshua has a long way to go yet. When asked about his sparring with Wlad the very first thing Joshua said was, and I quote, "The champ's in a league of his own". That says it all really.

What do you think of Joshua, Ian? Your someone who i've found to be at breaking down fighters and fights.

I think he's good and I think he may go all the way. However, we've not seen him in against a real puncher yet, we've not seen him in against someone mobile or who can take his punches, we haven't seen him in against a slickster and we haven't seen him in against anyone his own size.

Joshua's shear size and power will get him a fair way along the line and he can box a bit too but until he is better tested I'll sit on the fence a bit.

[Sklar]

The size difference is clear and obvious. Quigg is miles bigger than this guy.

Exactly and that's why the fight won't happen anyone who thinks Quigg should get a better cut than 35-40 needs their head checking
