HW Josh Sandland needs a ranking

Post by funso banjo baby »

Just returned with a draw against Ellis Machin

Why isn't he ranked at HW?

for a 4 fight novice on the small side he's got a pretty decent record

I thought he might really develop after beating Akinlade but perhaps the loss to Little shows his level. Not sure why he was inactive for so long, I presumed that he’d retired.

Is he ex-Army with very little or no amateur experience or am I imagining that?

Someone from his team used to post on here, would be interested to know what’s going on.

Sandland was ahead against Little before the referee made an extremely poor stoppage call.

Didn’t realise that, was just taking the stat at face value. Thanks

Yeah, he was set to beat Little and should have. The stoppage was very poor.

He seems a decent fighter. Not a world bearer, but he could definitely have a David Allen type career I think.
