Anyway, shouldn't it be "European sport" nowadays... :wink:

Scotland got dicked, Eire drew with Cyprus, Wales struggled to get by San Marino in football so was a pretty dire week. England need to rely on other results to go their way to qualify for Euro 08 and Scotland needs to beat Italy to book a place. Doesn't look good!

won a few quid on that, also i bet on South Africa before the cup started.
Every cloud has a silver lining.

Also you can get 6/1 on Byrd to win on points against Povetkin.
might put a bet on that.

And i'm betting on Isreal to get a draw against Russia

Hmm 6-1, that's a good bet, worth twenty quid I'd say. Byrd might have slowed a tad, but he's still a very experienced and skilled fighter, who has only lost to the best.

Where can you get the results form. I dont follow the AM game really, but wouldnt mind knowing how the Welsh lads are getting on, how many have gone?

Overkill Terrence, just the Welsh contingent and how they're getting on would've done :TU:

Did Mo nassir go, he's pretty much our best boxer imo. Him and that young lad from merthyr (i think), boxes around Welter / lightweight - looks a right scally wag, but can box. I think he was one fo only two or three Welsh lads who were training with the British Olympic squad.

If/When are these fights being shown on the old box? Maybe BBC or Eurosport are picking them up?

I have heard he has changed his name to Abdul Haqq? Anyone know if this is true?

I suppose it's better tahn SUgar Ray Clay Jones Junior...... surely the boxing world's worst nickname. I even prefer Sugar Ball Brains Onsei Bonsu (I think that's what he calls himself....)

I am with you on that Stu... Poor old Hitman_Hatton1 is seduced by those types of fighters unfortunately, it would seem :D 8)
