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?

Deal not 100% done yet according to eddie, but when is it ever in boxing? Canelo is unreal, one of the most improved fighters in recent years the way he's come on, great footwork, combinations, tough with it too, just a top draw fighter let's have it right, but don't count Billyjoe out 100%, love him hate him who cares it's about boxing, and if he's on job, if he comes right, he can do much better than you think in there vs Canelo, he has a great boxing brain and plenty of skill,put me on the spot an ask me do i think would he beat Canelo, no, but would I count him out and s**t all over h

That's it Mate? It's all subjective,each man sees things different & has his own opinions & reasons gatti & ward,some fighters they were?

thats just the nature of the beast ? From the bare knuckle era,and no doubt many moons before that,there has been technicians & there's been rough housers - all sorts of emotions are running through someone during a fight,and not all the time professional ones...like Duran,who is a rough tough streetwise fighter,but,he was a great boxer,a really great boxer, perhaps you don't take to his style,and you like a clean fighter who doesn't put a foot wrong which is absolutely fine,but boxing due to its nature will attract some nasty c***s & at times Duran was one of them but when he
-
Duran is arguably one of the greatest lightweights ever everyone has their own opinion,which they are entitled to,and people see things different but to dismiss Duran as just a "great fighter" who wasn't up there with the other 3 is proper off the mark imo like I say,Duran had plenty of boxing savvy,you've only got to look at his inside work to see that,and not just how he fought on the inside but many other things no doubt he was a roughhousing merchant,but to say he couldlnt box is not an opinion I've ever seen anywhere but here tbh
-
While Duran certainly loved a tear up,I disagree with you saying he wasn't a great boxer his inside work was phenomenal,his deft little movements on the inside,and his manipulation of positioning,he really was brilliant to watch on the inside

not the sharpest knives in the drawer.. each to their own though

Should never underestimate anybody Joshua massively overlooked Ruiz,which was very foolish considering how he can box when he needs too anyone else think Joshua almost looks happy that he's took a loss?to me he comes across like the weight of the world has been removed from his shoulders,he's welcoming a break from the pressure...could be wrong who knows he really struggles with hard shots & KDs doesn't he,& was too textbook at times,Ruiz was answering jabs with left hooks,Joshua wasn't imposing his will at all,and did not seem to arsed about trying to adjust & ad

AJ didn't seem to be paying a blind bit of notice to mccracken?? And again he didn't seem to have a boxing brain or any real ideas,he's got one gear has Anthony Joshua usyk is another fella who would beat him comfortably
-
Fair play to Ruiz jr,fought very well,made it very hard for AJ in there,AJ just couldlve get set in the fight,looked flat footed the lot i see folk saying "I can't believe AJs been beat" ?Whys that?ruiz can box,and box well,I admit I had Ruiz winning a few early rds but getting stopped 6-7th but you knew last night that it was ruizs night very early on still don't know what people were basing Joshua beating fury & wilder off of ? Perhaps Joshua had an off night,but I think he gets outboxed by fury all night long & KOd by wilder....
-
Out of his 105 amateur bouts Andy Ruiz won 100 of them Ruiz is a harder fight for Joshua than Miller wouldlve been i can see Ruiz looking good in the early going,stealing a few early rounds,then getting stopped in the 6-7th round

Yes that's a good chippy in cromer? Theres another good one just up the road in east Runton too theres a cracking chip shop in Wisbech but I forget its name

Ortiz & his team never expected their bluff to get called did they?
-
Looking better in each fight is kash farooq fair play to him boxed very well ?
-
There is a certain element that get the gear up em & think they are invincible,just like there is a certain element that get on the drink,and think they are the best man in the country,or a certain element that suddenly get hold of a few quid & start looking down there nose at people...a c**t is a c**t whatever they do & whatever way you slice it but most people I know who take gear are very well informed about what it is they take,where they source it from & do it for reasons that are not violent at all - they want to see how far they can push themselves & love the b

It has?And I think it will continue to do so yes,Paulie malignaggi is fighting bareknuckle,but for the USA based BKFC,he's fighting artem Lobov on June the 11th tyler goodjohn has expressed interest in fighting both Paulie & artem,although BkB Official & BKFC don't get on so f**k knows if it will ever happen ? Paulie won't do too good in bkb I doubt,could be wrong,but imo his lack of power & the problems he's had with his hands will give him some stick with just wraps on while Paulie is the much much better boxer than artem,in every way,I feel at this stag
