A cracking comment to see this morning. While there's always a chance Joshua could win, the statement is just contradicting itself
I was reading a piece by Glen McCrory today, he was basically saying that AJ is fighting tomato tins and he will become unstuck very shortly in the division. Kev Johnson presents a real test ...... we know this Glen, but, BUT, when he smashes this guy KO in 6 or 7 rounds what will you say?
That he beat up a tree trunk In better fashion than others beat the tree trunk?

To be fair I'd fight 15 Mayweathers for a fraction of the money they are getting! Take my beating then it's spending time :yay:
it's hard to spend money when you in a coma, i've herd this type of nonsense a ton of times, i'd fight tyson for a mill, when i say would you stand in front of a truck travelling at full speed for a mill, i get told, well obviously no, same difference.
was at my mates and a pal of his said he'd fight tyson fury for 100 grand, he said he's just dive on the floor and bite his legs, i told him he'd get disqualified he shrugged his shoulders, and said so what i'd have 100 grand, i told him he wouldn't get paid though, why not was the reply.

I watched all of Tyson's old fights on ESPN Classic a few years ago, I'm pretty sure at least half of his early fights were those kind of guys.

I've come off a motorbike at over 100mph, I guarantee you Tysons hardest punch won't hurt as much as that. 8)

When I watched Vitali versus Chisora with my (now ex) girlfriend's Dad. He kept referring to Chisora as 'CHIS-RAH', no matter how many times the allegedly coverage referred to him by his correct name. I had some other mates who were round (also casual fans), so I didn't have the heart to point it out and correct him.

I remember having an arguement with a guy who i used to work with for him saying the Klitschko's should fight one another,as much as id love to see that,you cant blame them for never having done

Vitali would render Wladimir unconcious

I was told by a ponce of a mate that if Haye beat Audley he`d buy me a pizza meal.

I looked at him with disgust and told him straight that pizza and meal are two words that do not belong together.
