Make or break I think, he does not look like a natural fighter.
Is a shame, but his reactions to punches does not bode well for him.
4 months?
Has he got an STD or is he waiting out his contract?

Szabo doesn't often go over easy though, so Larry did what he had to do.
I'd like to see him jab a bit more, winging hooks can bring Larrys chin up which he doesn't want to do. But i'm guessing Larry didn't see anything in Szabo to worry him so went for it.
Any new heavy always brings in alot of interest, they don't need hyping so much.
I think Maloney was trying to say Belshaw was the irish Bruno, now that for me is putting alot of unneeded pressure on him. And when you watch Belshaw , you can see he ain't no Bruno.

Here is the David Howe KO defeat on the end of this prizefighter intro.
The first KD was a suprise - it didn't look much of a punch but then when a
17 stone fighter delivers it - it doesn't need to be!

I thought He went over very well at least a 5.9 for artistic impression. So whats the chances do you think of Him winning a British Title in the next 3 years then. Good

I still think
Larry "Green Mile" Olubamiwo is better but I am biased, as it was my idea.

Hey Larry, good of you to post here.
What gym you training at?
A little dicky bird tells me you have been sparring recently with Tom Dallas?
When is your next outing?
Good luck. Britain needs an interesting domestic Heavy scene, and hopefully all these new fella's coming through, yourself included, can provide us with some good match ups in the future

hi yiddo itrain at the pedro youth centre and cooks academy depending on my shifts. I have sparred with Tom Dallas about 2 weeks back and it was a good session for the both of us. we will try and do it again in the coming week. i am out again on the 15th of nov in york hall and am looking forward to it.
And I think the british heavyweight scene will be fantastic in the coming year or two believe me. so what did u hear about the sparring with me and Dallas? wod gets around fast in the boxing world

dave is a mate and there are so many heavyweights to fight. so why fight a mate. besides he is a stablemate and so we wont fight unless its for a title. and believe me dave can fight and he will prove it in his next bout

Larry stopped Dave Indleby last night in the 2nd, good result that . Ingleby had just Ko'd Howe in his previous fight, and Ingleby doesn't get stopped often.
