Disgrace. I gave the kid 3 rounds. The guy couldn't jab. Slapped non-stop with his back hand. It was obvious the fix was in early doors.

There's no way you can find 7+ rounds for Edmonson in that fight, he barely landed a.meaningful punch the entire fight. He had a good bodyshot in r10, everything else was such poor form,. mainly because he was concentrating on holding instead of following anything up. It was an awful performance, and it was Edmonton that made it a crap fight.

It is if you like watching a plodder against a flatfooted light hitting switch hitter. :OhYes:

Will Turky be doing a 5-5 involving Boxxer?

I remember, when Covid lockdowns first started, he was having a right old moan on Twitter because he wasn't getting rent from his tenants or something. So I assume that even then he'd invested his money.

And he's had a couple of high profile fights since then. Hopefully he's all sorted out.

Lewie Edmonson is a horrible horrible watch. He reminds me of the boy in the gym who is style over substance. flashy, looks good on the pads and can’t crack an egg, that’s exactly how I saw him last night

I can’t see it. I don’t think Boxxer have got the depth to be able to do it and have enough to service their U.K. shows.

Also Shalom seems more risk averse than the other U.K. promoters. Particularly with his ‘name’ fighters.

The best we could come up with was a draw, and that was being very generous to him indeed.

Edmondson must be one of the least deserving British champions ever.

But Davies was awful.
Truly terrible. How he had a career in boxing is astonishing. Extremely poor in many areas. Making mistakes all over the place. Can't even throw punches properly. He's just not athletic at all and you saw a huge athleticism gap there but credit to him for hunkering down and having a career in the first place. It's the right time to get out though because he will only take more beatings.
Overly harsh IMO. He made the most of his abilities and was a solid British/euro level fighter who is heavy handed. Sure his technique left something to be desired but he made the most of his ungangly style. Wish him well in retirement and his next steps.

sums up my views entirely. Good luck to him. His YT channel used to be good, he doesn't post now, was insightful though. Turned his life around via boxing, was on an attempted murder charge prior to boxing, massively achieved in those circumstances, won some belts including the English title and has made enough money to have some properties.

He might not have a lot of depth but Yarde and Azim put bums on seats, CBS and Buatisi, and he has a load of women fighters.

Folk also wanna see the Cameron Whittaker rematch

Saudi is where the money is, and if he wants to play with the big boys.

Maybe. I don’t know. I mean it’s tough when you finish your boxing career whilst still so young. Like all sportspeople. It must be hard to change to a new line of work. Still I hope he has used his money well, seems like he has

Ohara owns a few properties, whereas Small got convicted for illegally sub-letting his council flat which says you all need to know about his morals regardless of his ISIS-love. I think Ohara will be ok, he's not arrogant and seemed happy he was retiring. I can't imagine him trying to radicalise bemused members of the public any time soon unlike Anthony.

Yes. He seems pretty down to earth despite putting his foot in his mouth a couple of times. Good luck to him

x2. On a completely side point, he may well have had the longest arms for his height ever. It is/was mental.
