Yeah- He just seemed a bit pissed off/jaded all evening.

Isn't it his (Jim's) last bit of work on ITV?

I actually thought Duke McKenzie had a good night.
He talked alot of sense, especially his comments on Froch.

Rawlings though

.. Khan wasn`t even on the bill and he still talked about him

He was v-hard on Murray`s bad showing - Murray is a Khan rival you know

Rawling = -9/10
Duke = 7/10

Throughout the night, both Duke and Rawlings couldn't decide whether Bradley was a banger or not. One minute they're saying "he's a proven puncher/big hitter/banger" etc, and the next minute it's "he's not known as a big hitter/heavy handed" etc. It happened several times from both of them.

Hagler, Leonard, Roy Jones, PRIME Hopkins.... yeah right!
Only Roy would win.

Leonard shouldn't be mentioned, Joe would be too big for him.
Oh max....

Get yourself some copies of the great 80's middleweights and tell me how in hell Joe would have beaten the likes of Hagler and Leonard. Hopkins in his prime would have beaten Calzaghe by 6 or so rounds.... a version far removed from his prime nearly did it. A prime Roy Jones would have beaten him convincingly too.

Calzaghe is a very good fighter, no question. But lets have some unbiased perspective here.

Only a prime Leonard would lose out that list. Maybe a prime Hopkins. I dunno.

I think next month's Khan fight will be. I think they will use him in future on a freelance basis, but not sure whether that includes boxing (if, indeed, boxing continues on ITV).
