I've been told that it's Ernesto Bergamasco, who is a former Olympian and is 64 years old. He lost to Dave 'Boy' Green as a pro. http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_ ... &cat=boxer

if it was bergamasco, it says he comes from torre annunciata...a real bad place which is a camorra stronghold. they breed them nasty down there.

pretty sure he wasn't chuckling when he looked in the mirror later on, realising how fvcking shite he is at boxing.

I don't think he's a boxer. Based on his shorts and his bare feet I'd wager he's a Muay Thai guy or Taekwondo or something and not very good at that either, just probably a guy who goes to the gym to get fit twice a week who got set up for a hiding. Funny though.

Even if the guy was a good fighter in his day he's in his mid 60's now so it would still sting no matter what lol

I think any young guy would have to try and laugh it off saying' I could have kicked the old guys arse if I wanted to'

Im sure it started off as a friendly kind of joke but the old guy suddenly was back in the ring fighting for a world title, in his head. I bet hes a real handful on a Saturday night in his local boozer too when he's pissed and they want him out. A right proper Paul Sykes!

Your opinion would be based on your experience ,, my son shown it me on facebook last week ,, My reaction was fornicating KNOBHEAD BULLYING pudendum ..

What you have to relize is the older guy has been a boxer and is still going to gyms , he knew how to move he knew how to slip , the young guy did'nt have a clue what he was doing and did'nt start throwing bombs he just got clobbered .
.
just watch , the young fellas feet square on , he jabbed , he tried to defend and was holding his breath , basic boxing mistakes the older guy more fluent knew his distance and was never gonna get hit ,

He got in to show off , he is a BULLY .

I knew a famous gym near me who would let a pro of some experience beat up on novices after promising a 'friendly spar' a shithouse trick of massive proportions and discouraged some kids who could have made pretty good boxers. It happens when there is little to no supervision.

Agreed.

Of course hes a bully. but hes an old guy and the young guy obviously thought that this was going to be him kicking an old guys ass, or making himself look big. so its all swings and roundabouts, the young guy also is a bully?

Someone knew what was going to happen here, as ive said hes a version of Paul Sykes, bullying people and im sure he will be a pain in the ass in his village/town

it may well be the case that it was the young guy who was throwing his weight around, or mouthing off, and what happened in the ring was him getting put in his place. that seems the much likelier scenario.

He's getting added to Liverpool PPP show lol

If the younger guy was mouthing off then the older dude could have proved his point by going in and slipping, stepping in and out of distance, landing a jab here and there and basically embarrassing the other guy. A guy who is clearly more experienced and capable doesn't get any credit from me for going in there and bullying a lesser opponent regardless of age.

Automatically the old guy becomes the hero to everyone watching the video when there is good chance that in reality he's the villain.

Impressive ability all the same.

I think some people think about these videos far too much.

How have you worked any of this out? Because he is small and old then the young guy is a bully, probably what happened was that the little old guy or some of the trainers in on the 'joke' said to new guy, 'hey, spar with this little old guy - go easy on him' and the little old guy decks him.

From my experience, local bullies all know each other and b) Have more of an idea - in my opinion, the poor bugger was set up, he didn't even have any footwear on.

To be fair that dodgy barnet deserved a punch in the chops.

There's a strong rumour Mayweather is interested in a fight with this fellow. At a catchweight.
