Teak tough Ghanaians would be the order of the day

Ps has anyone actually ever encountered teak in their life? I haven't, and know nothing about it.... But I can only assume it's very tough, as it's often related to Ghanians.....

The hardest of hardwoods.
Think they make boats from it.
And planes too apparently

is teak not the poor mans mahogony?

If the ship was made in Accra as oppose to the uk, the teaktanic would still be going now and celion dion would still be doing Eurovision.

A lot of Ghanaians don't have money for mahogony

We really have derailed this thread.



Would never happen if it was made of teak

This settoul is a teak fella.
Grandad obviously Ghanaian

Burnett looks very one paced. First booth now this fight.
Hooefully improves that aspect of his game as has the skills to compete at a very high level.

It's frustrating watching Burnett. He should have had Settoul out of here by now but isn't throwing enough combinations. It was the same in the Jason Booth fight. I blame Adam Booth who seems to be content with his boxers going the distance winning on points as opposed to forcing the stoppage.

I think he just doesn't carry much power, he's hit Settoul clean regularly and for the most part not bothered him.

It's a Slazenger bag, complements his socks.

Nah mate, get a Sports Direct bag for life for a quid (and handy for taking home the white socks for himself, Hughie and the rest of the lads) - all in a tenner well spent.

Talented but certainly not a big hitter and certainly not a superstar in the making...a bit...well....dull

Yep, rapidly coming to the same conclusion. Wish these Sky pudenda would give it a rest about this masterclass....

Burnett by a mile.

I agree but when Settoul went down in the 5th, he looked like he didn't want any more but Burnett left him off the hook. He should have swarmed him and made the ref stop it.

Didn't bother with that.

Uninteresting domestic prospect fights uninteresting foreigner.

Don't think that can be blamed on Adam Booth though, Haye was always aggressive and hardly ever went the distance, Groves was similar and Lee's always looking for the knockout. If Burnett could have got Jason Booth out of there he would've done.

That was a very disappointing fight, only one I've not enjoyed so far tonight.

Hearn getting mullered by the irish fans haha

Camp Eddie is in his element tonight

Only seen him the once before (Booth fight) and equally unimpressed tonight. Well.... uninterested at least.

Great to hear Hearn gettin booed. That's what happens when you continually rip off your customers you pudendum.

Credit to Eddie giving the crowd it back there! Top work.

Ah it was said more tongue in cheek than anything.
