I'm sure in a decades time, we'll all be sitting back and reflecting on the unforgettable battle that was Quigg-Simion
That Aussie quote must be the worst / best ever...... let's follow some of his logic (and for this I'm assuming that he refers, purely to wins
after fighter is considered a legend, rather than retrospectively so that we can't assume that early losses by EG Hagler / Hopkins can be considered 'legends')
Glen Johnson also beat Roy Jones Jr, so therefore is a legend. Which means Clinton Woods, Chad Dawson (double legend), Tavoris Cloud, Bute, George Groves, Erik Skoglund and Avni Yildirim (?) legends. Also Fonfara is a legend. And as Joe Smith kod Fonfara in a round, that makes him an emeritus Legend.
So Smith - Hopkins was the legend superfight of the century etc etc.
If you follow this rationale ad infinitum I'm sure you'll find that 75 % of boxers are technically legends...

Smith needs to be kept off camera/commentating - he is creepy & crap
Jonny Nelson is getting very bad too... proper brown nose
however..... Tony bellew was a breath of fresh air on sat night... hasn't become a yes man, said it how it was
(he was pushing his own agenda abit too much but fair play too him)

Give it a couple months and he'll be as robotic as the rest of them, otherwise they'll not let him on again.

Sky commentary team is a dire cluster f*** under Smith - thank god I didn't have to listen to any of it, or the piss poor under card, arrived at a massive heaving pub with a booked table just as they were arriving in ring - And I couldn't hear that god awful twat smith commentating, just the roaring noise of the crowd, and WHAT a relief that was.
Was Bellew ok then ? There must have been zero impartiality with him though ( as one of smith's approved boys ) plus he was first to leap into the ring to congratulate AJ..
Smith is the worst disease to be inflicted on British boxing in televised history.

IT really is one of they wanky comments that make you dislike Smith and the rest of the Sky mafia. Chico/JLC was one of the best fights I've seen in my lifetime and this weapon is comparing it to Quigg struggling with an old Romanian! Very good Adam

Well, obviously there will be memories of 'Hatton - Tszyu....but will we get a different result this time Carl?'
Froch - 'Well Adam, it reminds me of when I...' **Cut to William Hill advert**
I think I want a job writing scripts for Sky Boxing
