Farnell versus:
Takaloo - blamed his trainer
Groenwald - blamed the judges
Elcock - blamed his new trainer; blamed birth of new baby
Monteiro - blamed 'illness'
He's the master of excuses!

Do you think he knows deep down that he's seriously limited?
I actually think he believes these excuses.

Absolutely. This is a guy with real delusions of grandeur. I read on this forum that he goes everywhere carrying his 'world' title belt with him and refers to himself as a two-time world champion. He even boasts of having his own agent! All of this and still doesn't have the dignity to lose with any class. A grade A prick.

There have been some corkers...
My boots slid on the canvass too much..
"I had the Flu" is very popular...
I did me back in whilst trying to give me Mrs a left hook...
The one that made me laugh was Julius Francis' incessant drivel about being an old man after the Audley fight...
"You gotta remember man, I'm firty nine now ya see...you know what I mean....I'm firty nine, give me some credit..."
30 seconds later after Audley has been interviewed...
Julius pipes up again..."right, you gotta give me credit I'm firty nine for christ sake...you know....firty nine"
Yes Julius we know you are 39 and also someone who should not be allowed to be interviewed.... :x

And Mike "Baddest man on the planet" Tyson; "Oooooooh I hurt my leg!"

Tyson comes out with crackers like "I broke my back" after winning!!!!
He must deserve some form of award for that.
