Re: What happened to Andrew selby?
If he hasn’t packed it in he’s wasting his career. He’s already old.
Re: What happened to Andrew selby?
If only there was a BOXing RECord site where you can search for fighters. If there was, you may discover he fought 9 weeks ago. Hardly fits the whole "has he packed it in" potential scenario

Also a thing called, uhm, google
Type his name. Top result is this - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/boxing/45288529

Blimey, was that show only 2 months ago? Feels like it happened ages ago.
Re: What happened to Andrew selby?
A fight v selby and charlie edwards would be good
Re: What happened to Andrew selby?
I'd like to know what happened to Lee Selby, not Andrew. Did he retire? Is he hurt? Nothing since split dec with Warrington.

Andrew Selby is fighting in Mexico next on the 26th January v Julio Cesar Martinez Aguilar (apparently a WBC Flyweight final eliminator).

Re: What happened to Andrew selby?
I remember being so hyped on Frankie when he first turned pro. That feeling was definitely misguided. I had the same feelings about Ismael Silakh! Although I do think Ismael did have the talent, just had no punch resistance whatsoever.
Re: What happened to Andrew selby?
Bold move fighting a Mexican in Mexico for an opportunity with the wbc (of all the organisations). He'll have to earn that win, the movement won't be enough.NoScoutingReports wrote: ↑18 Jan 2019, 10:20 Andrew Selby is fighting in Mexico next on the 26th January v Julio Cesar Martinez Aguilar (apparently a WBC Flyweight final eliminator).

Re: What happened to Andrew selby?
gavin was a good prospect, but just didnt have the mentality, ability alone is less than half of the story, without the discipline and hard work nobody succeeds....i should know, im a huge underachiever.Nondescript wrote: ↑18 Jan 2019, 11:56I remember being so hyped on Frankie when he first turned pro.

Re: What happened to Andrew selby?
I could be wrong on this, but I always had the feeling that Gavin didn't quite believe in himself in the same way that a lot of people did aswell (alongside the lack of discipline, etc)jamesmcdonnell wrote: ↑30 Jan 2019, 09:23gavin was a good prospect, but just didnt have the mentality, ability alone is less than half of the story, without the discipline and hard work nobody succeeds....i should know, im a huge underachiever.Nondescript wrote: ↑18 Jan 2019, 11:56I remember being so hyped on Frankie when he first turned pro.

Re: What happened to Andrew selby?
I seen Gavin close up recently, he was skilled but inconsistent and took loads of shots off a journeyman type. He was good but I never seen world title in him. Not to down on him because he was successful and he was also very sound when I met him but just never seen it in him as a pro. He still had a very good career am and pro.
