How would this work?

Post by Foggy »

Reading sky sports Christopher Lovejoy has travelled to Cologne for his fight this weekend with no cornermen, can a fighter actually fight with no one in his corner?

Weird but I'm guessing he could pay someone when he is there to sit in his corner.

That was my thinking also but By the rule book, do you need anyone?

Not sure if there is an official rule. Better to have anyone than no-one, even if just to lift the stall into the ring and fetch water. A bit risky having no cut man either.

It happens all the time in the ams when you ask someone to hand up to you. That's always when a fighter and trainer are alone and they'll know whoever they ask from the circuit.

Think Prince Patel mentioned something similar when he fights abroad on that IFL interview the other week

Christopher LoveJoy has 19 wins and 19 knockouts. He doesn’t need a cornerman. He knows what to do. Seek and destroy.....

A shame this isn't against Allen for the title of "least notable double comeback from retirement"

Even though this is a piss poor fight and Boxrec doesn’t mention it’s for the WBA regular title which sky sports did I’m interested to see what Charr has left and what Lovejoy can do

Exactly

Christopher Lovejoy has never blinked in his entire life. Never

He refers to himself in the 4th person

Surely we should be taking a wheelbarrow full of cash to the nearest bookies to bet on Charr?

Lovejoy 11/1
Charr nearly evens

Won’t need the stool, water or advice between rounds, lovejoy is a round 1 ko master and arguably the real p4p 1 (haters will say canelo). He will knock char out within the first 3 mins, smart of him to not give 10 percent to any leaches trying to ride on his coattails.

Damn straight, he knows he will walk through Charr in the first, so there will be need for a stool man

Apparently the WBA "in recess" title IS NOT up for grabs, however if Charr loses the title will cease to exist!

RE a man in the corner, didn't Shumenov go solo vs Hopkins?
