Boxing Talk!!

[Metallica]

FFN, British boxing on Sky Saturday night then Hopkins vs Cloud in the early hours. Pretty busy weekend!

 

[Placebo]

Ordinarily Hopkins v Cloud might not be the most exciting fight to look forward to but if Hopkins wins I believe he would become the oldest world champion in the history of professional boxing? Which is something noteworthy IMO.

Last night's HBO card:

Got this one recorded from Boxnation on my Sky box. Will watch later

I started watching it last night, there was a young American heavyweight, cant remember his name. He was fat and out of shape but could move and punch well! very interesting fighter

 

[Placebo]

Boxnation's only SD though isn't it? Much prefer HD

Edit: Realised it's in the wrong folder again sorry!

 

[Metallica]

True! I heard it's good too so I may as well get it HD! thanks

What folder is it in please?

Edit - found it thanks!

 

[Placebo]

Yeah it's the best fight so far this year and it has to be watched in HD! Undercard bout is also very good

 

[Metallica]

Spoiler

Wow! that was a great fight. Good effort from both fighters Provodnikov could cause Bradley some real problems when he caught him. Bradley though is a tough cookie. Good stuff, more of that please!

 

[Placebo]

Spoiler

Indeed, cracking fight, kind of ironic that after such a weak start to the year it's probably not even going to be fight of the month let alone fight of the year with Rios v Alvarado 2 on March 30th, can't wait for that one, as for Bradley, huge heart, seemed to be some mental demons in there, hopefully excised now as he was badly hurt early on, as well as in the last round of course, fortunately had enough wherewithal to take a knee which quite possibly stopped him getting KO'd.

 

[Metallica]

Just watched this haha!

YouTube - Tyson Fury, Steve Cunningham and Naazim Richardson argue at NYC press conference

He really is entertaining outside of the ring! I didn't used to be a fan of his but he's starting to win me over now with stuff like this! brilliant!

 

[YoungGun_UK]

decent promo but he's not the most articulate.

 

[Metallica]

Would be great to see a Tyson Fury - Angel Garcia mouth off!

 

[YoungGun_UK]

Spoiler

Just seen the Bradley/Provodnikov fight, WOW! Those two really left it all in the ring, Bradley seriously can take a beating and keep coming and credit to Provodnikov too, he looks like a handful for most Welterweights.

Cheers Placebo for the content

FNF:

Hairon Socarras (6-0-1) vs Sergio Montes de Oca (7-1-1) Featherweight - 4 Rds

Adrian Granados (11-1-1) vs Kermit Cintron (33-5-1) Welterweight - 10 Rds

[Metallica]

Thanks Placebo!

Is there a problem with the FTP at the moment?

 

[Placebo]

It's still downloading for me so probably why the file is showing as locked and won't download for you, if that's what you're talking about? Seems to be no current ETA as the original seeder is offline.

 

[Placebo]

It's good to go now

 

[Metallica]

Thanks again! I was having problems logging in before, all ok now! thanks

 

[Metallica]

Spoiler

Stieglitz absolutely blitzed Abraham last night, nasty swelling on the eye!

 

[Metallica]

Seems like Wilder vs Harrison is on for the Khan vs Diaz card. The end of Fraudley part 156!!!

The bloke has more lives than a cat, if Wilder disposes of him how he has alot of other fighters then surely Audley must call it a day

 

[Metallica]

I have just read about a mini tournament in a Amir Khan interview, pretty mouthwatering

Winner of Garcia/Judah takes on the winner of Matthysse/Peterson for the eventual winner to take on Khan should he beat Diaz. Sort of strange that it all works around Khan but should prove some exciting Boxing.

Would love to see a Matthysse vs Garcia bout though, that would be amazing. If Matthysse won that and fought Khan I would fear for Khans career!

Oh and David Haye is back!

 

[fd1972uk]

David Haye, sheesh, supposedly turned down a Klithscko fight last year.
