Check out the picture caption to the recent Colin Lynes-Brian Coleman fight in this rag of a newspaper. Just a disgraceful, ignorant, caption.

And check out how they spell Jeff Fenech in the copy. It says it all.

Brian Coleman shows off his speciality attack, head-butting his opponent's glove, on his way to defeat the 122nd of his career against Colin Lynes on Saturday.

what a bad comment

What do you expect man? It was probably written with the heel of a white stiletto dipped in ink.

The writer Lee Power is an arsehole who probably goes to bed at night dreaming of picking up a job on the news of the world or the sun..... or failing that the daily sport........ he should do too as he is equipped with the lack of both taste and intelligence that is much needed by the scum that supposedly 'write' for such rags.

Coleman knows his way round a ring and is rarely hurt, which is more then you could say for the writer if he fancied doing a few rounds with Coleman...

I remember a funny story about Brian - he was in a changing room waiting to go out and fight and trainer Nobbs said (paraphrasing):

"Do you wanna warm up on the pads Bri, or do you want to just stand by the radiator for a bit?"

I have seen him fight on a fight few occasions and he is a composed, well schooled fighter to my mind..
