Not really a big loss to be fair in my opinion. Bit of a plonker!

Why's he stopped? Used to find his videos genuinely amusing.

:lol: yeah i know i used to find him pretty entertaining, he said he is getting too over involved and cant enjoy boxing any more because he is over analysing the fights. Also he isnt getting paid for it and it takes alot of time up and is eating into his family time.

He is now going back to his first love of spending all his time playing computer games and making videos about that, which doesnt cost money or eat into his family life at all i should imagine :lol:

He felt he was getting too emotionally involved after starting to cry during his Audley Harrison v Deontay Wilder prediction video.

I always thought they should have got him on proper telly especially after his youtube row with steve bunce, i found him, knowledgeable and quirky but inoffensive. I like bunce but he can be quite argumentative.

He was harmless but I feel he was the kid that wanted to be loved at school, was last pick for footie and used to give away sweets to make friends, he found youtube and boxing as a big biys sport gave him big boy freinds and followers, I though he was a bit of a sado and felt sorry for him .... harmless though

There's plenty of plonkers in boxing. He was ok, just doing what he wanted to do. Nothing wrong with that.

he pretty cool guy.
most his followers were boxing fans anyway. was excellent at breaking things down and gave solid post fight breakdowns.
he stopped as he said he cant enjoy boxing as he was over analysing stuff in fights which took away the entertainment, which i understand,

he cant be that bad if he had so many followers!!!

wish him well

Dont know if you've ever watched 'Hatman's' videos? He's one of if not the best amateur boxing analysts on youtube! Very good at breaking down fights I think.

Nobody will ever replace the infamous duo of Boxing4Real aka Don Omega and IronTruth.

When they stopped making videos and had a bust-up, it signalled the end of YouTube Boxing.
