Curtis seems a really sound fella and is up against it with Hamilton who can't rap but can fight.

Obviously not & nor is fearon which is the point I was trying to make.
I grew up watching honeyghan,Mckenzie,Andries ,Eubanks & co Bruno & Lewis so I've never seen adversity in the case of race

I was referring to your use of the term 'coloured'.

Fearon using the term "coloured" so frequently in that press conference was a bit shocking. To be fair ttornado, I'm probably around the same age as Hurlock, in a proper rural part of Wales and in school we were taught that the term "coloured" was the PC thing to say. Its only when I got to know a lad originally from Ghana, and he became a close mate, in my late teens that what I thought was being polite was considered offensive.... off course looking back can completely see why it was offensive.

Walker destroyed him but in fairness spencer should of never been at welterweight that was half the battle.
Spencer cracks me up because of his memory or research on old fights & story's & quotes he has read & kind of embilshes it with his own twists.
He loves to talk & no mistaking he can talk but he ain't great at it IMO & how he started talking about to black fighters contesting for the belt was pointless as he's
Never knownof the buisness to be like that. I'm not that far behind fearon & all the successful fighters have been coloured in Britain well the majority in my lifetime.
Who, like Ricky Hatton, Joe Calzaghe and Carl Froch? What a ludicrous post man, lay off the mushrooms!
