Fight Night.... LIVE!!!!

First topic message reminder :

Crikey, it's as dead as Trussman's love life around here this evening.

Are we all set for a great night of boxing action?

Say what you like about Vyacheslav, but that was impressive from special Brook

Eddie's just mad for hugging.

haha, I wrote r3tard and it corrected to special.

Any questions on Brook's chin?

Your constant comments about Eddie are like an old man shouting at people on a hospital ward. Can be ignored for the most part but occasionally the temptation to tell you to simmer down becomes overwhelming.

Not really for me, almost gets shaken up, a decent shot landed he staggered ever so slightly and had his full senses.

What happened gents?

Did he knock out the Ukrainian geezer?

I don't think it's too much to worry about, as Hammersmith said he did a little jig but was back and had the senses to weave and tie Senchenko up, and his legs looked solid

Maintained his cool when he got caught.

That was Enzo Calzaghe in the Coral advert or a lookalike?

Yes because you didn't watch it, the moment after the fight you miraculously turn up.

There can't be two people that look like that, Scott. Not since Bobby Ball had that big weight gain.

Don't take a wash without a shower?

Cringeworthy.

I think Bellew must have been watching a few Hopkins fights recently, seems to have brought out the whole brother Naz repertoire.

Guess that's Brook lined up for another IBF eliminator then...

Where on earth did they get those world rankings from?

Sky do their own rankings I believe.

They were pretty damn awful, look to have done it on reputation more than anything.

Fair play Ed. The Sun is such a rag.

Never watched hammer, as I said before.
I dont have sky sports either, just BT Sport.

Just checked on here, again as I said I would, to see if the special boy had done what I expected.....

Well you've watched the Burns and Bellew fights so presumably you did the same this time and I fully believe you did, too coincidental.

I watched those round my brothers mate, like I said before.

Ive been dragged around the missus freinds for a brew......in telford so not happy days.

What where the rankings like?

I switched over to see Suarez's hat trick...

Your constant sniping comments where you attempt to appear intelligent and witty are boring. Do they reflect how predictable and dull you are in real life?


I get the message though. Eddie isn't to be slagged off on V2. Is he a friend of the site?

Was this them?
1 Floyd Mayweather (USA) 45-0, 26 WBC
2 Timothy Bradley (USA) 31-0, 12 WBO
3> Juan Manuel Marquez (Mexico) 55-7-1, 40
4 Manny Pacquiao (Philippines) 54-4-2, 38
5 Devon Alexander (USA) 24-1, 13 IBF
6 Robert Guerrero (USA) 31-2-1, 18
7 Adrien Broner (USA) 27-0, 22 WBA
8 Paulie Malignaggi (USA) 32-5, 8
9 Jesus Soto Karass (Arg) 28-8-3, 18
10 Keith Thurman (USA) 21-0-0-1, 19

If so they look alright.

For the life of me can't see why Guerrero, Broner, Malignaggi, Karass and Thurman are above Brook personally, would have him 5/6 interchangeable with Alexander.

Guerrero and Broner are a different level to Brook. Both are better than Alexander.

Brook's in and around Thurman/Karass/Paulie

We're talking about Welterweight here not the mythical p4p lists where neither have excelled or have much experience.

Is this the same welterweight division that Guerrero beat Berto(2x welterweight champion and better than anyone Brook's ever beaten) and Aydin(also better than anyone Brook's beaten.

Broner WBA welterweight champion...

Brook's best wins are Carson 'Journeyman' Jones and a guy who Paulie KO'd...

I wouldn't say Aydin is better than Senchenko by any stretch of the imagination. If beating Malignaggi is all you need for a high ranking then god help us all. I do wonder how many watched the Senchenko/Malignaggi fight as he was stopped on a cut not knocked out as many claim.

Senchenko was beaten up badly by paulie in that fight.

I watched the Paulie-Senchenko fight.

I know it was on a cut, but unlike most fights it was deemed a TKO rather than a TD.

Rose fought well above his level. Certainly no robbery. The Argentinian was defenceless slugger, missing loads and getting tagged on the way in and out. Hattonesc.

Joshua looks good. Brook as people know didn't put a shift in recently. His career started a few years ago really and is still learning.

Senchenko lost a split TD. That isn't a battering. Despite how it was called.

No fight stopped on a cut caused by a punch goes to a technical decision, cuts are for me luck of the draw, Paulie was winning well but he wasn't hurting him.

TDs are for an accidental clash of heads.

yes Guerrero beat Berto who also was beaten by Jesus soto Karass who was beaten by the almighty alfonso Gomez so your point is moot

Quillin v Rosado is real close

What a farce!!

HAHA Quillin was testing himself to What Golovkin done to Rosado, on that performance Golovkin will destroy Quillin easy

Looks like Hopkins has changed his name from executioner to Alien

Excellent performance by Hopkins, was a great fight.

It was an eye swelling it was stopped for and it wasn't caused by a punch.

You make it sound like anyone can beat Malignaggi, he has only ever been beaten by top opposition apart from one time he was completly robbed and then coasted the rematch.

To beat Malignaggi you have to be world class which is why he is a good gate keeper. And I think Brook would beat him.

It was caused by a punch hence the TKO victory.

He also targeted the eye to make it worse so he would get the TKO.

Paulie boxed great, away from home against an unbeaten fighter as well. Although Kell Brook done a better Job and I think Brook would beat Paulie as well.

Senchenko may not be the best fighter but he is a decent fighter, IMO you have to give Brook Credit for his performance.

Senchenko is stand up European garbage...........Just like Bute is.........

Only thing is a la Froch.........when a guy is good like Kell he makes him look the ordinary pudding he is.......

Guys like senchenko are mere footnotes at any other time........

Good fighter Brook though............Fancy him against Devon..........who doesn't rap that hard..

Look on the brightside If Brian Rose wins the WBo title he becomes a potential Mayweather target........We'd all love that wouldn't we.......

Notice as the Argy got stuffed with a 117-111 card they couldn't be bothered making a meal out of it.........I had it 113-115 to the visitor........

Unfortunately old Watty boy seems to feel the need to fly the flag more and more sitting next to Halling.......

Who is without doubt the worst commentator I've ever heard since Marv Albert

To say Senchenko and Bute are garbage is well off the mark, they are mechanical but have still been successful with it, not everyone is as majestic as Mayweather or dynamic like Pacquiao.

I wouldn't say Bute is mechanical at all, or a stand up 'European style' fighter.

Feel bad for Rosado. Totally outgunned but bringing based on tenacity. "I worked my whole life for this."

It must be hard for officials to be compassionate at times.

Still though, shows how good Golovkin is.
