Yes Metcalf is no slouch That was the best I've seen ted though??

Great performance from cheeseman

Being lean and that can be overestimated sometimes,I'm no expert but you need to be at a level where you're leaned up and still have plenty of energy and I think if you strip off too much it can be harmful to your energy and performance Horses for courses though,and each man will function differently at different levels of body fat etc You need to be in functional shape,you might not look ready for the stage but if you are functional you've done your job??

Goes without saying that if you haven't got it in the mind and heart then you are f****d Like them people who look sharp on the bag,sharp on the pads,but never have there gumshield on sparring nights or go to pieces before a bout,because they haven't got that one ingredient you cannot teach which is the heart and the mind as you say Just meant that if you're not conditioned you are on the back foot straight away,some fighters have all the heart and mind and it gets them bashed up where they are so competitive and won't quit,there's no longevity in that but if you have that spirit and

Good post and I agree?it's won and lost with your conditioning,like a high performance car with a dodgy clutch and a f****d engine it doesn't matter what it looks like on the outside if it's inside is damaged,it just looks good for nothing? Won't do it's job if it's not in working order,same for a fighter

Yeah Whyte let him get too comfortable,we will soon see mate?I still think Povetkin has enough left in him to do what he done last time if Whyte doesn't put him on the seat of his pants sharpish which we all know he can Will agree Povetkin isn't the fighter he once was which is only natural,time is never on a fighting mans side
-
Wouldn't judge povetkin being shot on his shape,especially considering last time out he knocked Whyte out hard despite giving away rounds and being knocked down himself Boxing isn't mr Olympia,and shape at times can mean nothing when a big shot lands ,I prefer a fighter in good shape but a tubby Ruiz still stopped AJ and big George foreman hardly looked like he was carved out of stone and he was a very good fighter,,anything can happen in heavyweight boxing I agree with you that Whyte could win easy,and I think last time he just let Povetkin get to comfortable tell the truth,despit
-
Whyte needs to remember his success in the first few rounds of their last bout and run with it,and get the job done quick,I feel if it goes past 6-7rounds he's in trouble I fancy Povetkin underestimated Whyte a bit first time out aswell,and may come out trying to end it as soon as he can If he's mentally spot on that's a very good sign as like mentioned he is a big rough and very game man who is more than capable of stopping Povetkin,who to be fair was getting beat about a bit in the first fight Povetkin can still turn it on and is a wiley old fighter though,I don't think Whyt

Well that went pear shaped.. Poor little f****r

I'm gonna have a lovely lamb madras tonight with more sides than you can shake a stick at that's a good news story to me ?

Nothing surprises me anymore

Yeah hagler actually got the sick of not being introduced as marvellous marvin didn't he so he went and got his name changed in court

Love a early morning get out?good shots an all baggin those squirrels?

Ain't you thought about making your own?

We will see who gets the W after the two fight,I say it will be tyson,Joshua has done well and made the best of what he's got in other fights yes,not saying he hasn't That's the trouble with these internet places it seems you can't weigh your opinion in favour of somebody without being called a "groupie" or something? Was pretty fair about Joshua in my post i thought,and for what it's worth I'm a boxing man who thinks it's great the biggest fight in world boxing will be between two of our boys?
-
One thing I don't understand is with Tysons style he gets plenty of stick,but on the other hand when Joshua beat Ruiz in the rematch "he done his job","done what he had to do" ?to me he just jabbed and played a very safe game,,but personally after that shock loss I'd have thought he would have had a bit more about him and went for the stoppage,but at the end of the day a win is a win and he won? But Tyson would get stick for the same showing - personally,although the outcome of one fight doesn't mean to say it gives an insight into what might happen in another,I think if Tyson comes ou
-
Yeah that's pretty much what I've heard about it? There's all sorts of ways to end it on the street isn't there,let's have it right,most times it's a case of who is gamer and gets in first,don't matter what you're doing,if you get it off first you're on the upper hand,nothing moody about a swift elbow all up your nose and lips?one old boy I know reckons best thing to do is a push kick right up the gut,he done a lot of Thai boxing and reckons he's knocked the wind out of people doing that before agg properly has a chance to begin? I'm a boxing man through and through personally,don

Nice one socks What's that other martial art boys they reckon is lethal,nin jit su is it?all throat strikes an things Yeah I think that's what a lot of it comes down to a lot of those martial arts don't work in the real world when something comes off
-
Seen a few bods get wrapped up with that wing chun and krav maga,although I'm no expert on it though,I suspect that wing chun only works with certain people certain times,like all those martial arts,even some fellas I know who are very good in certain martial arts won't resort to it if someone stuck it on them,just weigh them in with a left hook?but I've also known rough men who are nasty with it when needs be deal with people with martial arts but again I think that was wing chun?I know somebody who reckons it's never let him down yet,personally I'd say there's a bit of ? talk there but I kno
-
I too would like to see Whyte win the rematch,a game man who's never ducked anyone and always makes it a good fight Hopefully that hard KO won't be in the back of his head going into the fight,but I think whytes seasoned enough to be in the right state of mind

"If they cut my bald head open,they will find one big boxing glove. That's all I am. I live it".?? RIP marvelous marvin hagler,great fighter

Strong boy: the life and times of john l sullivan, good read mate? Also, if you like the bareknuckle era, boxiana by pierce egan is quality for English bare knuckle history and fight recordings, it has them all, Thomas cribb, harry sellers, bill Hooper, tom tyne, jack Broughton, great read from a different era?
