DAN GUTHRIE V MT GILLICK
can you enlighten us on the chances of this match up as it seems gillick is more than willing to be put in the firing line.
what are the rest of your thoughts on this?
GUTHRIE (3-1-1)
GILLICK (0-0-0)
its always dodgy fighting a debutant.
discuss........

Guthie won the ABA's. Gillick says he has a good AM pedigree but what was it?

To Mr Gillick,
I suggest you get your manager whom I believe is Mickey Helliett to give us a call. My advice is let him doing the managing/matchmaking and you stick to the boxing. Never like to see a boxer taking to much on his plate it never seems to work.
Firstly I can't understand why particularly you want to box Guthrie out of all the Super-Middles and that you have been looking for a match since March?
Also I presume you live in Scotland I thought Plymouth would have been a little far to come for a 4 rounder?

I do think Jamie is right here, cannot your promoter/manager get you a couple of trial horses before a tough assignment against a hungry ambitious fighter.
Your just embarking, you don't want to make an early mistake. Not saying you cannot beat Guthrie - never seen either of you fight proffesionally, so I cannot judge. But I think you should feel your way into it first, you might be a little rusty - cause you've been waiting a while.
Why not a Howard Clarke or something, just so you get the confidence booster.

I know i keep banging on , but ive seen Guthrie in the amatuers and pro ranks and i reallly like the look of him.
I honestly think he can get to Domestic level AT LEAST , MTG , a fight against Howard Clarke would be sensible at the infancy of your pro career.
Guthrie is a banger.

HI JAMIE,
MAYBE IVE BEEN PICKED UP OR COME ACROSS WRONG,IM NOT CALLING OUT OR ASKING FOR THIS FIGHT.AS YOU SAID ITS MANAGERS AND MATCHMAKERS THAT ARE THERE FOR THIS.
IM JUST PUTTING ACROSS THE FACT THAT IM WANTING TESTING FIGHTS AND IF THE OPPORTUNITY WAS OFFERED I WOULD CONSIDER SO IF YOU HAVE TAKEN ME THE WRONG WAY THEN I APOLAGISE FOR THAT.MAYBE IM A BIT ANXIOUS AT THE MOMENT SINSE ITS BEEN GOING NOWHERE FOR ME SINSE MARCH.
I DO LIVE IN SCOTLAND AT THE MOMENT BUT IM BASED IN LONDON.
TRAVELLING IS NOT A PROBLEM.ITS FIGHTS IM AFTER AND IF I HAVE TO TRAVEL THEN THATS FINE.
ALL THE BEST

I understand your frustrations and I admire your honesty.
If you are fit, your medicals are all done and your manager thinks your ready to box then i'm sure its only a matter of time until you get your chance especially being based in London.
Like I said get mickey to give us a call and we will see what we can do.
I notice your from Coatbridge I know there is a stable of fighters from that town including Ricky Burns. How come you did not turn pro with them?
All the best
Jamie

I WAS WITH THEM "BARN B.C" FOR THE PAST 20 YEARS AND WAS PUT OFF FROM SIGNING WITH THEIR TEAM FOR REASONS I WONT DISCUSS PUBLICALLY,THEN I WAS ALL SET TO SIGN WITH T GILMOUR BUT THAT FELL THROUGH DUE TO MY COACH SO I DECIDED TO MOVE SOUTH.
IM HOPEFULY RELOCATING SOMETIME SOON TO MAYBE ST ALBANS OR LONDON BUT NOT SURE SO IM WORKING IT AT LONG DISTANCE FOR NOW.

Hopefully that puts that topic to bed! Find it a bit strange seeing my name as the header of a topic. I think thats best left to Hatton, Woods, Haye, etc!!!
Merry Xmas and Happy New Year everyone!
Big year coming up for Dann and Haskins!!!

Dont forget Leigh Alliss please!

I know he didn't look great last time out but his style of fighting often sends the fans home happy.

it sounds to me that his team of manager/matchmaker hasnt been doing their job.looking since mar?how hard is it for a manager to get a fighter a bout?
maybe mr gillick is trying to kickstart his career as a result of bad managing....
so what is it mr gillick?

by Jamie Sanigar
Yes hopefully with a couple of wins early next year and Alliss could be in line for a domestic title shot. No one in the gym would deserve it more!

Gissa shout if you do make it down to this side of the world mate. Love to meet you, and I live just down the road now my girl's at Bath Uni.
Mind you, I've normally got a bloody gig to cover whenever there's boxing on. But I'll try...

mr gillick,
why call out someone just to go into hiding when the chance is offered?
all talk???

Not really my place to speak for MTG, But here you go; he said he wasn't calling anyone out, just looking for the opportunity to fight.
Posted: 27 Dec 2005, 09:27
by TIGER1
i think you might find that he asked for the fight more or less in "DANN HASKINS BACK IN ACTION" thread.
so i await his reply

IVE NOT GONE ANYWHERE!
I HAVNT BEEN OFFERED ANY FIGHT WITH DAN GUTHRIE SO UNTIL I HAVE I CANT BE CONSIDERED AS BEING IN HIDING.
IM NOT SHYING AWAY FROM ANYONE AND AS I SAID IF IT WAS OFFERED I WOULD SERIOUSLY CONSIDER AS IM SITTING ONLY A FEW POUND ABOVE 12 STONE AND WOULD HAVE NO PROBLEMS BEING FIT.
DOES THAT ANSWER ANYTHING?
