I wonder if that lad had ever been in a proper spar? I'm not going to dig him out, it's the people who put him on the card and the trainer who thought he was ready.

That ring card girl was a sort though, I'd certainly go to Wales to Bangor.

Good one !

Agree! It's grim![/quote]
Unless they have Richie Woodhall on who is excellent[/quote]



Then only thing I find with Richie Woodhall is he talks through the round and is great at describing what he has seen and picks who he thinks won the round....then at the end of the contest (if it goes the distance) he'll kind of forget how he has been describing the fight and suggests a score that's far removed from what he's been saying.

Watch him and see if he does it.

Does anyone remember the fight last year where they were commentating on a bout but got the names muddled up with those of boxers who were on the bill earlier? I think it was from Merthyr in Wales.

I dont mind Richie but 2 things wind me up about him. When a fat Latvian is getting a complete & utter beatdown he says so & so needs to move his feet faster. He cant he is a journeyman thats why he is getting a beating & his ranking obsession!

Yeah I remember that the tv graphics and commentary were talking about one fight but it wasn't actually those two fighters in the ring.

The promoter had obviously thrown a 4 round floater in messing up the order they had and nobody thought to tell them. Although I'm pretty sure it was something like a middleweight fight instead of light welter so really should have been obvious!

Any chance of a late sub or is he off the bill together

I think I remember that, yeah. Can't remember who it was, but remember being a bit baffled by it.

Luca will be getting the opponent in to save an MBC show.

Steve Holdsworth commentary is certainly marmite and sometimes not the most PC.

[Boxing Prospect]

Love Steve Holdsworth, some of stuff is gold

Even though I have "enjoyed" seeing what has happened to Larry O's career after his return from suspension. I do hope he just retires now..... it was quite sad to see him so gun shy vs Darch. Larry O vs Danny Williams would be a hard fight to call now (which says how much Larry O has regressed since his return).

It seemed to me he wanted to give up at the end; glad he got up and finished the contest though!

[CharlesListon]

He is certainly a different boxer post his ban.
Personally, I don't believe the PSDs he took would have been that much of a benefit to his actual performances. The more I see of him now, the more I think it was a confidence thing. Some kind of placebo effect and without them, his confidence has gone. He's a really nice bloke to speak to and I feel a bit sorry for him.
Glad he got up and carried on.

I was thinking the same thing

Yes it was Morgan Jones fighting Chris Ware but they were talking about Chris Jenkins v Jacek Wylezol It was Tim Caple and Ritchie on that one.
It was only in the last 10 seconds of the fight that Tim Incapleable got the correct fight[/quote]


That's right. Easy mistake to make, what with them being a weight division or two higher and Morgan being a black lad!

I think hes just made the decision to go down the journeyman route to be honest probably earns a lot more money like that than trying to win titles but not really being good enough.
