:twisted: Wish the bbbofc central area, would leave me alone man, so guess what yet again ive been called to another one of there court dates# whoops i mean meetings to be held in july. regarding my record and training regime. This to me is a waste of time and pressure on me. My record doesnt look pleasant or shineing with Ws. Im a journemen they know that, the boxing world know this, i never get stopped and im in some very close fights that i should win, but i dont because im the away guy or sometimes just dont do enuff. Training; well im always fit and give a good fight to anyone i face. Dear Mr boxing board why are you bothering with me? let me do my job, win or lose its my job, i got bills to pay, kids who need clothing, and a wife thats needs shopping money. That is all. James Had enuff Tucker. :geek2:

One thing James, your carrying too much body fat for me -you don't look exceptionally conditioned, you always looks way the smaller man in the ring and I reckon u could do 11st 6-8 if you took some off!

That might lead to more success

i could do that, but that means hard dieting all season round. because i fight twice a month, all year round, im not gonna punish my body dieting all the time, thats only reason why i dont mate. I am usually the smaller man but i get to fight at my walking around weight which i dont mind doing. making 12st is hard alot of times. discipline with food has never been a strong thing with me lol

James remind them that you've a draw on your record against a banger in graham delehedy and also you took the prizefighter champ who stopped every opponent on way to winning comp to a 6 round points lose.Does my head in this subject everyone knows who's worth there salt that to get a win away from home is as easy as winning the lottery jackpot.

James tell them to pull the refs in who refuse to give an away fighter a decision in and disipline them.

Not sure i know they have looked at it but cant see a lot coming from it to be honest.I did see an inteveiw with Tom Doran where he said why should he give max a rematch as he wasnt hurt and beat max fair and square :o So i think that gives his take on it .

I've never seen you fight but wish you the best of luck!

Also don't know what your body shape is, but I tend to disagree that 'hard' dieting is needed all year round. As I say, not the best person to judge though.

I noticed a lot of the bouts you've been involved in have been two minute rounds.

I haven't seen this before - is it normal? Some of these bouts have been 4 x 2 minute rounds and some guys making their debuts have been in 6 rounders, but mostly for 2 minute rounds.

What are the rules for a fight to be recognised as a professional boxing bout? 4 x 2 minute rounds is even less time than in Prizefighter.

alot of short notice fights and debuts fights are made at 4x2s or 6x2s mainly for safety of the fighter, for him to get a feel of the pro game. also for me its good because it allows me to fight more regular without as much aches and pains etc injury risk. to be able to do 6x3s rounds and more you have to win a few fights in a row. hope that helps
