Did anyone see this show last night. It was on at around 01:30 - 02:00 on some channel or other, possibly discovery health. It was the story of two young british amateur training camps and their up coming tournament with errr... too drunk to remember France i think.... anyhows, a young kevin mitchell was in the squad, only around 15, very quiet lad believe it or not, quietest and best spoken out of the bunch. He lost if memory serves me right.

The point of the post, did anyone see the show and how are the other fighters getting on now. One of the outstanding fighters was a young scouser called quigley, trained by his father.

I've seen the series before, I think it was shown about 18 months ago on Bravo. I think there was one about Mighty Joe Young on the other night.

I remember the one with Mitchell in, he'd been brought in at late notice for that bout, if I remember rightly. I also seem to recall he wasn't too happy with the way the Amateurs were being run.

I only saw it from 01:30 and it may have been an hour long. For the part I saw he kept his trap shut. He was in at late notice, 4 weeks i think.

Nah, they're only half hour shows. I didn't mean he was moaning and being gobby, just that he felt he should have been in the squad earlier, that sort of thing.

At 15 4 weeks notice is not to bad me thinks?

I assume Tony Quigley, who has moved up in the weights in the pros.

I watched most of the first part with Darren Barker, very interesting watching all those tests they were doing. They weren't wrong about his good stamina level, wasn't his first pro fight a full 6 rounds?

Cruiserweight he only looked a wee lad on the programme.

I believe he has moved up from Welter to Cruiser in very quick time. Don't quote me though!

On his debut he was 168lbs, but against Hoti he was 186lbs

from welter to cruiser .... ..... thats a big step !

Bloody hell sounds like he has been on the Kirk Johnson recommended diet plan.
