Vuma has been a huge dissapointment for me, no urgency about his work. Maybe its because Rhodes is just too good for him.

I will now point out that i've had a few glasses of red wine, and have run out, so now have opened a bottle of white wine,. thats not a good mix

Yeah wasn;t a good fight, was strange.
Vuma just wasn't willing to take a risk, it wasn't as if he'd been hurt badly and thought ' i don't want anymore of that'.
It was just one of those fights where only 1 guy really wants it. I thought it was quite an intelligent fight by Rhodes, he didn't take to many risks, and boxed to orders.

It showed afterwards what it meant to him, can't begrudge him his win. seems a decent bloke

what times haye on?

scored the rhodes vs vs vuma fight....115-113 or 7-5 in rounds....thought that rhodes ran out of gas in the last 3 rounds as i gave all these to vuma.

rhodes should defend that wbc international title 2-3 times , make some money then go for the european belt , if he goes for a world belt he will get knocked out as hes nowhere near good enough , saying that though he would get a payday though

Haye on shortly I believe

bunce talking nonsense about haye only being down once in career, bunce is making me wish i hadnt ordered setanta

fight on soooooon
