For sure, no offence to him. I was more making the point that some guys get given a lot of notice and their preparation is no better and some guys like Jay McFarlane and Rob ismay recently, they get given good notice and quite clearly almost don't train at all.mickey1975 wrote: ↑25 May 2023, 15:16Whitaker is not a slaving away sort of guy.

To be fair when he fought Danny Whitaker I can remember it was announced he’d be on the card in Eddies garden against an as yet un named opponent. I messaged him on his Instagram and asked who the opponent was and he said Danny Whitaker, this was some 8 weeks out and Whitaker had only just fought, I forget against who. Then boxrec listed the opponent as Josh Sandland. No announcement or comments from anyone that this was the opponent, and then sure enough the week or fortnight before the fight Whitaker ends up being the opponent. Even then Whitaker came in 9-10lbs heavier than his previous fight so he can’t have been slaving away that hard in the gym.
Screw you James, that's bloody ace.
I dont think we will ever see Fisher in with a good opponent, at least not until a money fight appears.gregregegg wrote: ↑26 May 2023, 16:53 Emilio salas.
Not the worst ever, southpaw is always a bit of an interesting detail. But 38, can make cruiserweight, knocked out early last fight, knocked out early two other times…. This is hardly “worth the wait” if they have been sitting on this anouncment for weeks….
A good concept very poorly executed.
VADA tested?Redback Rasta wrote: ↑27 May 2023, 00:16 Fisher is a good one to watch. Not sure how far he can go until he is tested of course.
should wait a year then Chisora. I think Del will be well tenderised by thentigermoth87 wrote: ↑26 May 2023, 23:59I dont think we will ever see Fisher in with a good opponent, at least not until a money fight appears.gregregegg wrote: ↑26 May 2023, 16:53 Emilio salas.

His annoying dad has done an admittedly great job building his brand and getting him wasy more attention than a boxer of Fisher's mediocre talents deserves. They won't want to mess this up by putting Fisher in with a decent opponent.
To be fair, he is new--and I think it is a bit early for him to step up just yet. But they'll likely have Fisher spinning his wheels, knocking out bums until he's 30-0.

Yep he will be protected for a while I think, if he's drawing big crowds they don't want him to lose.tigermoth87 wrote: ↑26 May 2023, 23:59I dont think we will ever see Fisher in with a good opponent, at least not until a money fight appears.gregregegg wrote: ↑26 May 2023, 16:53 Emilio salas.

Johnny isn’t being as active as I thought he would be given he can afford opponents.
Dobvichenko, Nick campble, Steve Robinson, Webster, jay farlane, tshvenka, hose steward, dacres, Allen, babic… needs to start getting after em all.
At his age/levle If you have a 1 round knock over your next fight date should be announced within a couple weeks.

-Fisher is in camp with his trainer, nutritionist, 6 sparring partners, physio, masseuse and sports psychologist.
-His opponent is blissfuly unaware driving uber in serbia and selling single cigarettes to school kids as a side hustle...
feel the price of opponents is probably an issue for most (not johny).jameswilson wrote: ↑03 May 2024, 06:54 Standard for the novice heavyweights currently.
Moses Itsauma is the only guy fighting 4 or more times a year and that isn’t an exaggeration.
Sol Dacres.
Fisher.
Franklin Ignatius had a good win over Steve Robinson and since then nothing.
Moses Jolly fights very infrequently.
Nick Campbell hardly fights.
Tommy Welch. Jamie TKV. Adeleye. Matty Harris.
These are all guys who if they put two or 3 wins together in the next 6-9 months could be mandatory for the British.
