Josh Warrington vs Dennis Tubieron card
Re: Josh Warrington vs Dennis Tubieron card
He was apparently offered both Burton and Callum Johnson. Two decent scraps there instead of cannon fodder.

Not necessarily but he was fighting a Commonwealth title fight,even if Wanyonyi was a bum,Burton will be about Commonwealth levelHorse wrote:Do you think Ajisafe would have beaten Burton without much danger of losing?handsofstone wrote:Because he was scheduled to fight for the Commonwealth so he should have been in tip top shape,the fighters he was offered are far less experienced than him
If Gavin was to pull out the Brook fight and the IBF was to mandate say Maidana,then Kell wouldn't be able to complain that he hadn't enough notice,
If you want to fight for a title then you should fight someone at that level,not a hand picked no hoper

"King Kong"...1 KO in 6 fights...for some reason I would have thought "King Kong" would be more suited to a puncher

Comparing Carroll to Pacquiao... Okay... They are both southpaws, that's about it. Pacquiao was left hand happy but had blistering speed and thunderous power, Carroll has neither.

If you think about this fight purely from a stance point of view then it is just like Mayweather v Pacquiao.Boxing Prospect wrote:Comparing Carroll to Pacquiao... Okay...

Re: Josh Warrington vs Dennis Tubieron card
Its a pity Perez didn't show more ambition in the first 3 rounds because there wasn't much separating them but Carroll found his range and finished well

I think Ajisafe is starting to look very good indeed. In the last few fights he's added man-strength, experience and confidence to the awkward Ingle style.
He's a tough night's work for anyone at LH.

So would Wlad be correct in refusing Mike Perez if Jennings pulls out a week before the fight?Horse wrote:No.handsofstone wrote:Anybody whose ranked in the top 15 by rights should get their shot however their style or previous title experience
Your acting as if Burton and Johnson are seasoned pros,Ajisafe is the one who's a seasoned domestic fighter,Bob had no right to reject them if it was for a title
Did Ajisafe only accept the Commonwealth shot if it was under the conditions that he only fought a mis match

Back on topic does Tyrone Nurse remind anyone else of Science from Big Brother all those years ago?

Decent so far,hopefully Taylor's eye holds up
Re: Josh Warrington vs Dennis Tubieron card
Perez is like a journeyman to Wlad. It would be a very strange decision if he refused to fight Perez because he thought it might be dangerous.handsofstone wrote:So would Wlad be correct in refusing Mike Perez if Jennings pulls out a week before the fight?
It is his choice if he doesn't want to fight someone decent at one week's notice. He doesn't owe Burton or Johnson anything.handsofstone wrote:Your acting as if Burton and Johnson are seasoned pros,Ajisafe is the one who's a seasoned domestic fighter,Bob had no right to reject them if it was for a title

Why have there been so many pullouts on Hearn's shows recently? It is a bit dodgy.
