Re: Shane Tuck article
I don't think Tuck gets enough credit for how well he goes for guy that's been boxing for 2 years. He's actually not to bad. Better than Cooper anyway.

Good article and full credit to Tuck for not quitting after losing his first fight by KO.

It's a bit of a shame that most of the footy players turned boxer fellas, do it when they're past their best. Some could have been topline fighters had they chosen boxing at a much earlier age. Instead most of them become freak shows and as a result drag the sport down

There's a life after footy, but not always so after boxing ![[icon_wink.gif] ;-)](./images/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif)

There are far better career paths available for our good athletes in football and rugby. That's why most start there and only some try boxing afterwards.bollocks wrote:It's a bit of a shame that most of the footy players turned boxer fellas, do it when they're past their best.

Cooper's physique and hand to eye coordination probably ensure he'd be good at any he tries. But still looks like a fish out of water in a boxing ring.Lairdy wrote:I don't think Tuck gets enough credit for how well he goes for guy that's been boxing for 2 years. He's actually not to bad.
