London O2 Sept 12th RBR
London O2 Sept 12th RBR
Should be a half decent card tonight.
I know how Boylan and Connor went on shame that didn't make the live show should be on later.
Norman v Edwards should be very interesting.

I've found a link to Thomas Masson v Silvio Olteanu, European Flyweight title, starts at half 8. PM me if you'd rather watch that than the O2 show.

Looking forward to seeing how Edwards deals with the step up in class.

Ali G in Normans corner ?
Re: London O2 Sept 12th RBR
Only 4 fights and thrown in for the English title, man he must be promising
Re: London O2 Sept 12th RBR
Didn't know Tibbs trained Edwards. Is that new ?

Definitely, usually only trains allegedly fighters.Naandrew wrote:Didn't know Tibbs trained Edwards. Is that new ?

Looking forward to this, long night of boxing ahead. Anyone planning on staying up for the Mayweather bill? I'm considering going to bed for a couple of hours & setting the alarm for 2am when Groves is due on, but not sure yet.

Martinez v Salido will be a belter I would set the alarm a bit earlier !Boxerbeetle wrote:Looking forward to this, long night of boxing ahead. Anyone planning on staying up for the Mayweather bill?

Re: London O2 Sept 12th RBR
Is that not on at 3? Groves-Jack 2, Martinez-Salido 3, Mayweather-Berto 4 is what I was expecting.Naandrew wrote:Martinez v Salido will be a belter I would set the alarm a bit earlier !Boxerbeetle wrote:Looking forward to this, long night of boxing ahead.

Re: London O2 Sept 12th RBR
The B0xnati0n twitter feed is saying Groves at 2am & Mayweather at 4am, so yeah I guess Martinez vs Salido will be 3ish?expe wrote:Is that not on at 3?

Yeah I'll be staying up, cant miss FMJ's second to last fight, mainly for the undercard fights thoughBoxerbeetle wrote:Looking forward to this, long night of boxing ahead.

Re: London O2 Sept 12th RBR
Edwards shouts after every punch! Offa annoying
Re: London O2 Sept 12th RBR
Norman is going to have to do a lot more to win on a matchroom show.

Re: London O2 Sept 12th RBR
...so this is why British Flyweights don't really go very far...
Re: London O2 Sept 12th RBR
Edwards is handling it well. I don't think he'll have a problem in the later rounds either, he isn't wasting nervous energy like I thought he might.

Edwards missing quite a lot. Norman missing more is how I'm seeing it.

Re: London O2 Sept 12th RBR
Such a shame that we don't get to see more of the genuinely good Flyweights in action on British TV. Fans would instantly loving watching the likes of Kogawa, Muranaka, Eto, Gonzalez (who is the exception to the rule and will be getting TV exposure), Estrada, Ruenroeng, Arroyo, Ioka, Reveco, Viloria, Mthalane, Tete, Yodmongkol, Saludar, Alvarez and Zoda. Instead we get...this..

Hopefully Gonzalez opens doors for the rest but I don't know how...Boxing Prospect wrote:Such a shame that we don't get to see more of the genuinely good Flyweights in action on British TV.

Thought Estrada was meh against Alvarez but otherwise, he's been fantastic and is the division's #2 behind GonzalezNaandrew wrote:Estrada is the bollocks from what I have seen of him.digzee wrote:Hopefully Gonzalez opens doors for the rest but I don't know how...Boxing Prospect wrote:Such a shame that we don't get to see more of the genuinely good Flyweights in action on British TV.

If you get the chance watch Zoda Vs Petchchorhae II it'll be one of the best fights you see this year
Re: London O2 Sept 12th RBR
Both seem tired and both will learn. Norman needs to show a lot more urgency to keep his title now.
