Just like Davey Moore being 'fast tracked', so was Anthony 'Strength & Conditioning' Joshua

Stone had mixed in decent class over in the States before returning to the UK. It was a fairly competitive light middle scene in the UK at that time and he came out on top of the group before going in with Mosley.

Richard Williams v Sergio Martinez

Williams looked super slick, looked like he could have a genuine chance at going further than domestic/Euro level. Martinez was still a bit of an unknown at the time but took Williams apart before then going on to prove just how good he was.

This very spooky I was ringside and worked on the last 3 fights you mentioned Stone vs Mosley,karmazin vs Walker and Williams vs Martinez.

Michael Jennings for the WBO against Cotto was a massive step up even with Cotto coming off the Margo bashing.

Oh yeah!

Also most mismatches represent huge step up in class for the mismatched boxer like:
Marvis Frazier vs Larry Holmes AND
Johnny Torres vs Ray Mancini in the same card...

and later, Richard Frazier vs Roy Jones Jr.

fornicating hell Richard Frazier the policeman, disgraceful

Yes, agree with all three. Frazier was ridiculously the mandatory challenger with the WBC.

Eubank full of BS. I remember him waffling for 10 mins about how conor macgregor would win a fight simply because he was Irish. Eubank just can’t live without the fame. So comes up with endless bullsh1t to get quoted via click bait style BS. His son was also apparently as good as maywether and would beat Golovkin. I don’t know if he’s punch drunk or believes his claims but I would suggest a bit of both.

Takes a man to admit that. He's embarrassed about it.

To be fair, his son is such a deluded disrespectful spoilt little Instabrat that he never listened to his old man and so now his career has passed him by. Not Sr's fault that Jr would never listen! Mike McCallum said Jr was the best prospect he'd ever seen in 2007, Mike Tyson phoned Sr and said he had a seriously awesome champion on his hands there in Jr....

Scott Welch says that during the Saunders fight, Sr standing between rounds and just staring and not saying a word was his way of cruel hard love to teach Jr a lesson. Scott says Sr was often fuming at Jr for partying all the time and seeing so many girls, and so proved a point to Jr by letting him lose the Saunders fight (I reckon Sr just thought the fight would be tougher than Jr expected but still a win) thinking he's all Johnny I Am

Jr DIDN'T learn, he was still a prat against Groves, before, during and after

Jnr is. Snr speaks more truth and reality than anyone in this evil 'sport'.

That's such clear nonsense. He gives some interesting insights from time to time, but so much of what he says is utter hyperbole. Listen to the Richie Woodhall interview on Boxing Life Stories and that is what you call truth and reality.

Don't feed the troll mate

Woodhall never experienced anything remotely similar to guys like Tyson, Chris Eubank, Barkley, Hopkins etc with all due respect to Richie. Never made a stand against the controllers or anything. Just a top chap, cracking stuff.

Chris was beaten by Dan Schommer? Is that what he's saying there?

Yeah. He doesn't even think it was close unless you were to score heavily on aggression.
