I think he brought it up because Stalker switched over to the pro ranks late and turns 30 in june.

I think it was in reference to the fact that he's a bit of a late starter in the pro ranks.

Regardless of that Stalker physically will decline in 5 years time or less so keeping going until he is 45? I just can't see it unless he goes on to World title wins in the next five years.

Fighting the Dan Carrs of the world I wouldn't be shocked that Stalker was fighting until he was 45.

Didn't Bunce also try to make out that Stalker was robbed in the Olympics?

Also watching Stalker...I keep thinking "this guy isn't very good", is that just me or do others not see anything outstanding in him?

Yeah i dont understand the purpose of a fight like this! What exactly do you learn from it?! I agree regarding his talent aswell. I think he's got fairly decent boxing ability but he's clearly lacking in power!

If you're gonna kick on beyond domestic level you tend to need something outstanding in a particular department. Stalker doesn't appear to be a puncher, a slickster or someone with an outstanding workrate. I guess more fights will show if we are wrong tho.

Stalker is decent and WAS unfortunate in the Olympics.

He seems to be more of a volume puncher vs say Frankie Gavin a fellow top amateur and southpaw.

Decent at what level though? It doesnt look like he can punch his way out of a wet paper bag, and Carr is basically a punch bag.

Toms spent too much time practicing standing infront of a no hope opponent with his hands by his waist showing off instead of hitting them.

I hope Stalker does go on to big things though as he seems like a really nice lad.

Eddie Hearn wanted to resign him, Stalker chose to go elsewhere.

I dont understand the Carr's of this world. Why would you want to be a human punchbag?! Yes I understand it's money, but surely there's easier and less painful ways to make money.

He offered him a deal, Stalker got a better offer from allegedly and chose to go there rather than resign with Hearn.

I can't understand why we let our supposedly TOP prospects spend so much time fighting guys like Carr.

I agree theres a danger of fighters regressing.
