Aye, too true! Although I dont think it would help those guys anyway, some of them who havent seen the fight still think Daws should have won

butch, i will keep quiet and let the consensus speak for itself.

Good move (the keeping quiet part

)

Saw the remains of what Sky showed last night, so obviously couldn't score the fight, but all I can say is every round they did show was competitve and not much in it. Vann looked like he had a poor night. Handled the 8th round poorly and let Morrison get away with blatent holding. That said, Barry put in an great effort.

With only 15 fights behind him, Daws can come back.

he'd better for your cred's sake

The Daws myth is blown out of the park

All of this "he has the best engine in boxing, you'll not find a fitter guy out there" What a load oh pish, typical built up fighter, the guy will never be the same again, bet you any money

fitness, whilst an obvious necessity for any athlete, is not something that greatly impresses me as a boxing fan. yes, it may give you an edge in durability but for me its way down the list of things i look for in an upcoming fighter. paul ingle was meant to be the last word in fitness but it didnt get him too far. balance and ring awareness are far more important things to have in your weaponry. perhaps thats why daws doesnt interest me - all he really has to offer is fitness and "a great engine" wow!!

Talking of credibility, "paul ingle was meant to be the last word in fitness but it didnt get him too far"

Top amateur,British, Commonwealth, European and IBF world champion, not to mention 11 good rounds with Hamed.

actually i was being very unfair on ingle who, as you showed, had a pretty distinguished career.
but the point of my post was to highlight the type of fighter you particularly like; good honest professionals who place fitness above all else, big work rate ethic, tons of heart, not to much power and limited skill.
are you a fan of michael hunter by any chance?

THEBUTCH · Post by **THEBUTCH** » 31 Jan 2007, 09:39

As you ask the question, i think Hunter's a very good boxer. What are you suggesting now ? Hunter gets totally outclassed by Molitor and he's crap?

I didn't realise I was on trial, but I rate Froch highly too, does he come into that same catorgory? 8) Infact the guy who I rate high of the high is Mayweather, how about him?

not at all, youre on pretty safe ground with floyd though are you not?
arguably top 5 p4p in any era.
you seem to know how i rate hunter before i can tell you - youre right!
froch? i dont think so, too open. poor balance.
sorry if you think this is the 3rd degree. we just enjoy different aspects of the sport i suppose.

Fair enough!

But hold on a second, you obviously like Lynes, but how much difference is there between what you say I go for in a boxer and Colin ?

harrygreb · Post by **harrygreb** » 01 Feb 2007, 08:42

i'm laughing!!!
it was in my mind when i wrote the previous posts that colin fits the bill pretty much exactly!
he's got a bit more skill than the archytype boxer were talking about though in my book. nice one

THEBUTCH · Post by **THEBUTCH** » 01 Feb 2007, 11:19

For the record again, I rate Lynes. I like his attitude and his style.

if only he had a real dig
