jackie milburn, alan shearer, paul collingwood, ..... your boy took one hell of a beating !! ..

and i might add.....as predicted, by myself and mr opticald

and surprise surprise..... it was all a question of 'paper' heart.

i said i wanted Hunter to win, I also have been a fan of Booth for a while. At various times this week I've said I don't know who will win, and I leaned towards Hunter.

Even the boxing News today said thay don't know what to expect so we just have to assume that both are somewhere near their peaks.

I don't change my mind on anything I've said about Hunter's previous fights, but..

On tonight's evidence, Booth was clearly much closer to his peak than Hunter was to his. For 106 rounds sparred beforehand, as was claimed (and no reason to think that's not true) I was very surprised at how far Hunter had slipped. After the even steven first round, which probably had a few arses twitching on here, Booth essentially laid a beating on Hunter. Coming in bigger is no substitute for being in much worse general condition than the other fella.

There was a rumour circulating at the show that Booth hadn't turned up....so when Hunter started his ringwalk , he could have conceivably been getting followed into the ring by the best paid journeyman of all time. Thankfully though, as I thought, Booth did turn up.

I based my prediction on Hunter being in better shape than this, but pleased for Booth at the same time.

FAO Rhino......my view of the corner was obscured by a ringpost so I don't know if the decision not to continue was Hunter's or the corner's.......but frankly, had he continued , Hunter was on a total hiding followed by a stoppage to the fresher , fitter man......you say it was quitting, I say it was the only sensible decision to make. The match had ceased to be competetive.

I think if Hunter walks away, and I hope he does, he can still rightly hold his head high at what he achieved.

Oh I can't wait

not at all.

i give my opinions as I see them, and I stick with them. Nobody knew what Hunter would be like, anybody that doesn't know him personally and see him training and says they know better is a liar, plain and simple. Even the boxing news said they didn't know what sort of nick Michael would be in. There's no shame in that at all.

Keep up the banter boys

Hagler, if Hunter had won tonight I'd have had you back on the forum no sweat and that's for real......the place would get real boring real fast without a bit of friendly niggle

Bottom line is you made a complete and utter cockend of yourself on this thread & now you come back on trying to arselick with everyone you tried to brainwash that Hunter was the second coming of Jesus Christ.....now run along and pick the bones out of the licking Hunter took with your boyfriend Derek "Couldn't tip a wheelbarrow" Bilton.

Pair of dildos

i merely said, if he got it wrong, which he has done spectacularly on many occasions, I wouldn't rub it in if he didn't leave the forum like he said he would, and he comes out with some sh*te.
We all know Boxrec, after his day job stacking tyres, is the most significant part of his life.
What sort of duck-egg says they'll never post again if they're wrong when opinions were so split.......because YOU KNOW that he would have come skulking back, everyone does....a tool, that's who.

Your posts are now becoming borderline pathetic

Now go to bed and cry into your pillow you've ran out of stuff to say.

Once a quitter always a quitter, Hunter is nothing more than a punch bag with a head.

you won't find many in disagreement with you mate!

basically Mike was out of his depth versus Molitor having climbed off his backside once already, and tonight, it was clear for all to see that it just wasn't there. He would have gone on to take a beating and get stopped, one, maybe 2 rounds later. It was the only thing to do, just don't expect one or two morons on here to get it that have probably never laced a glove.

booths boxing at hes best now, in there was a michael hunter who at hes end, booth wouldnt of been able to live with michael when he was at hes peak

Jesus, give the guy a break Hagler - your complete lack of class in 'victory' is actually making you look sad, not the other way round.
Oh, and Hunter's clearly shot, but to call him a punchbag on legs is just needlessly disrespectful.

Yeah you're right it was a bit harsh, guess I got a bit carried away and would like to retract that comment but everything else I stand by, could you imagine the shíte that would have been posted towards me if Hunter had of won?

What's done is done. Now we all need to be looking forward to tonight's mouth-watering clash - as much as I'm a huge Froch fan I've been leaning closer to Dirrell over the past week... the way Carl struggled with Taylor's speed and style suggests that Dirrell could pose him some real problems. I really hope I'm wrong, but if I was forced to pick right here, right now, I'd say Dirrell by close points decision. Will probably manage to change my mind yet again over the next few hours though

Why not cot congratulate Booth on another very good performance lads?
Why not thank Hunter for all the good nights he has given NE boxing??

Rather than act like a couple of plebs in an open forum!!

Lighten up

Great thread.

You can't have it both ways though - if you come on here and shout so loudly with such confidence and it doesn't come off you have to take the stick you were beating everyone else with.

Hagler would have been absolutely tortured if Hunter had rolled back the years.

I'll disabuse you of any cornerpost obscured notion you might have, NEBF. Hunter was dispirited at the end of the third and probably would have packed it in then had he been given the chance. He wanted out after the fourth but Fannan, rightly I think, wasn't having any of it and send him out for one more. Then Hunter directly told them he wanted out after the fifth.

Sensible decision though the likes of former stablemate Francis Jones would never go out like that. It was only going to get worse for him.

And the post about having to face the time when you don't have it anymore is one of the best I've read on here for ages. Very well put. And Hunter is the type of character who will find life outside the ropes very difficult, I think. Hartlepool's bouncers will be asking for a pay rise for the next few months.

Its all a bit school yard though isn't it Ian??

I mean I would never come on a forum and say 3-1 3-1 3-1 3-1 would I??

S. Taylor, Martins and Lovenkrands

Oh................................................

Ha, ha! The standard up there is truly world class though!
