The Chlamydia Kid Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 He's not a great mover but I'm assuming he's got a reach advantage so could pick GGG off on the way in. And he'd have greater accuracy than Jacobs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chlamydia Kid Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Decent documentary on BBC iplayer just now about cutting weight in UFC- quite interesting if you want an insight into what some boxers have to put themselves through to step on the scales. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pittsburgh phil Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I remember Ricky Burns saying that his little sister, who was about eight or nine, would eat more than him leading up to a fight. Admittedly he is a batshit mentalist but Roberto Duran would sit in a hot bath sucking on lemons for days to drop weight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had her on the pads on Thursday night [emoji106]good wee boxer. Ruthless, much nastier streak in her than he has [emoji23] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieStevenson Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Brook vs Spence on PPV. I don't mind going halfers on PPV with my mate every so often, will have to wait and see what else they put it on it. Mind you, we got that awful Haye card so we're pretty much all in for most of them now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boostin' Kev Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Hearn has set the standard so low recently that people have all but accepted it now. The main fight is at least a world class one so I wouldn't hold out much hope for the undercard. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chlamydia Kid Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Will need to have a decent undercard because Brook isn't a popular fighter with the public. He's not a household name yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boostin' Kev Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Decent ESPN card on tonight. Glenn Tapia is presumably getting fed to Scott Quigley, Randy Caballero is having his second fight in over a couple of years against Ruiz and the poor c**t Mauricio Herrera is in an 8 rounder which I don't think is even getting broadcast. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernJambo Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Is Josh Taylor on the telly tonight? Yes, it's on channel "spike". I'm with BT and I think I get it, couldn't tell you if sky customers do but would assume so. No idea of channel number. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKMAN Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Nasty cut over Taylor's eye from a head clash, but he's dominated so far. Joubert has taken some big shots. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieStevenson Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Just now, Oleksandr said: Taylor or Joubert? This Joubert guy. Appears to a PTS fighter so Taylor will do well to actually get him out of there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
