flintoff? he isnt a boxer yet,he is training in boxing,i hope he gets knocked out anyway coming to our sport and thinking he can just walk into it and make a name for himself.

I agree

[mickey1975]

I think he has already made a name for himself! He is bigger than any british boxer has ever been! National treasure status. It can't get much bigger.

[thatllbeme]

its happened in other sports (newzealand rugby player and american footballer)why all the negativity about flintoff?

[Old bones Ian]

Not being an expert on cricket, why did the lad retire from it?
Was he injured or was it like Gavin Hensen he thought he was bigger than the sport?

[SamWise72]

I was gonna say, most of those are cricket documentaries :)

[mickey1975]

Bad knee I think.

[johnnygreaves]

Just for the record, Adam Darke & rob Williams have been filming with me for quite a while for a document to be showed next year. These guys are really good at their job so hopefully my story will be told in a frank & honest way.i will let people know when we're finished and get a date for tv.

Knees were shot, how he passed his medical for boxing is beyond me.

[johnnygreaves]

Asi just said on another thread,some of you guys make me laugh.i know the lad he trialled against and he passed.he passed medical also & is willing to put his rep on the line.anyone fit and good enough can box.why are you plebs having a go at a man who's doing what you can all have a go of.if your brave enough.oh he's famous playing cricket how dare he box.thats utter shite.he loves boxing as much as some of you clowns.how dare you mob poo poo a mans ambitions.theres a lot more wrong with boxing than a name in another sport have a serious go at ours

He never said that did he? He's well aware it's going to be the hardest thing he's ever done.

I presume you had the same thoughts on Curtis Woodhouse as well then?

So i quit work, train full time ,get a former world champion to train me,get use of top class training facilities get my first bout screened
on live tv,meanwhile i pay my mortgage feed my family and just carry on as normal.
AYE RIGHT DREAM ON JOHNY AS MUCH CHANCE OF THAT HAPNIN AS OF YOU WINNING A FUC### FIGHT
PLEB!

[johnnygreaves]

See mate, with that sort of shite, your really showing your intelligence levels.hes a big name and people will be interested in seeing him box.i agree that 99% of boys won't be looked after like that.but the man is still putting in the work, passed tests.i win everytime I get paid.now go away you complete div. how many you won p@&!k

[lillywhite14]

Because NZ produce diddly squat when it comes to the squared circle. We have a much richer tradition ad we produce a shed load of talented fighters who deserve the spotlight far more than an ex-cricketer.

[johnnygreaves]

Unfortunately, boxing really isn't always about talent. It's ticket sales & viewing figures. Alls I'm saying is he's put the work in & passed his tests.hes doing a hell of a lot of his training at the peacock.its a good gym but not the state of the art boxing facility wots his name is talking about.hes a name they that will attract interest.thats boxing.

Once again you make complete sense in your post. There are scandals in the sport, dodgy decisions, non-payment to fighters, performance enhancing drugs etc but a cricketer having a bash in the same way I would in his position must be pretty far down the list, even if he is a shitehawk.

Got to agree with both of you. This is not going to be the worst thing that ever happens to boxing.

Bigger than Frank Bruno? Henry Cooper? Nowhere near!

It's tricky compiling a p4p national treasure top 10 as obviously they are all loved or would not be there but, yes, I would have him above those two. The nation ground to a halt in 2005 for that Ashes win.

I didn't but then I was in Wales, I could probably say that they didn't care in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Was the ashes win the biggest event in sporting history? I couldn't say it was and even if it were - it was a team effort and not just Flintoff. I have nothing against his partaking next week but let's be honest, he struggled with a pedalo - I am expecting Dawson to take him places where the pedalo didn't.

Everyone (or nearly everyone) loved Bruno in the 1980's and everyone knew who he was - Flintoff - I don't like him personally so I am probably biased against him, that drunken fool act is old. So 1995.

Help me out Johny ,exactly how can we all have a go at it?
