Dave Allen v Christopher Lovejoy

[funso banjo baby]

Dave Allen is just another John Mcdermot but i hope he whips Lovejoy

should be like when Faruk Saleem lost his '0'

This is a weird fight. Can we get a poll? I am interested in this fight RE betting. Anyone seen any vids of porno Sounding actor ‘Chris lovejoy’

Allen KO has got to be practically free money. There is no way this 320lb boxer/bodybuilder who Buddy McGirt can't watch on the bag without laughing is going to last 10 rounds eating shots from Allen.

Unless it turns out Allen has spent lockdown eating even more than Lovejoy, but given he was training for Hammer, I would expect him to be in at least respectable shape.

Allen’s 1/4 which is bigger price than I expected.

[JimJim2009]

Any heavyweight in this day and age reeling off 19 straight knock outs would be all over the internet. The lack of online video suggests to me this guy is a dud. Would love to see Dave revive his career with an entertaining win on a PPV show. Looks like the bookies have done their homework on Lovejoy...

Hmmm I’d hoped the bookies looked at loveJoy’s record and assumed he was a dangerous ko artist. I’d hoped for a price of evens lol lol

Be lucky to get that for Allen to win in the first.

Is love joy really that bad?

No no not at all

[Ruthless-RKO]

Allen would be only the 2nd person Lovejoy has fought with a winning record.

And the first time was a long time ago.

[stujones]

He reminds me of the guy who "fought" Flintoff.

I won on that one. 9/2! The bloke looked sorry when he flooded him.

Allen's human punchbag tactics will probably get him a win here. I'm guessing Lovejoy is going to unload the heavy artillery then run out of steam if Allen is still standing after a few rounds

Do you think it'll go a few rounds?

I'm looking at a few quid on 1 or 2 round win for Allen

[Old bones Ian]

Fair play to Lovejoy though , most boxers have loads of training or fight vids up on social media, he seems to of avoided showing how good he is to the public

I think it'll go exactly as long as Allen can be arsed to keep it going!

Yeah same, what I'm thinking is he doesn't know this guy, so why hang about in case he can whack if nothing else

Looks around 9/2 for both those rounds. It’s hard to know how bad Lovejoy is. 19 fights at the lowest level possible. I’d like to think Allen will take him out sharpish to avoid disaster.

How can anyone be that bad?

Quite a few red flags! And Allen can punch at a certain level

Interesting in what way? Him admitting in the past he hasn't bothered to diet and train in camps for PPV fights? Or him standing there like a punchbag over and over again? He is nothing more than a journeyman.

So what if he is a journeyman, he’s still a fighter, while pretty much learning on the job he’s hung in there and taken his lumps against the likes of Whyte, Ortiz and Yoka, got a good win over Browne and is generally a likeable bloke that speaks honestly, he’s limited with flaws so it’s interesting to see where he ends up.

Absolute nonsense. He is a conman of the highest order. Stood outside the ring after a fight on a PPV card saying he did not train and spent his camp in KFC. But that is OK because he talks nonsense online? All this likeable bloke stuff? Do you know him? Interesting to see where he ends up? He is a journeyman and that has been proven.

[margaret thatcher]

Ya tbh I've never been on the allen lover train, got kinda bored of the whole thing tbh. usually out of shape, very limited guy who can't win a round vs dave price talks good on the net. i mean, 'fair play' but just not that into it.

[margaret thatcher]

I'd expect Allen to win pretty easily, lovejoi is a boarderline fake boxer, there are hundreds of hws who'd prob beat him

[tony1234]

By his record Lovejoy looks like a bouncer wearing boxing gloves in a bar knocking out random punters

[dookus]

With the whole Tijuana connection (and those training videos) I think there's a pretty good chance it's not borderline

[margaret thatcher]

Ya probably right, you don't build a record like that if you and your people have even the slightest confidence in your boxing, prob paid all those guys to go down and never been in a real fight with an actual boxer trying to beat him

[cormack]

dave allen is shite but lovejoy is really shite so therfore allen will win .

Good Post. He's a punch bag against anyone with any sort of ability. His last fight was also very suspect and the betting was under investigation. If lovejoy has the ability to do 10 rounds on the heavy bag at a good pace he should win.

What’s nonsense? I know he’s a journeyman so what ? So what if he didn’t train for a fight, plenty of top fighters have done that too, its a tough game and I don’t begrudge someone trying to operate above their level to earn a few quid, so I take it you didn’t show any interest at all in his fights against Whyte, Yoka, Ortiz, Browne or Price? Don’t really think he’s done anything worth slagging off for, at least he’s having a go rather than sat around on his arse Passing judgement
