My cousin fought gomez at amateur, he reckons the ref stopped it early when he was fine, said he's a sound lad

He always came across as a bit of a maniac. Probably one of those lads that's sound as long as he likes you, I wouldn't have liked him as an enemy.

Just seen Amir Khan on BBC Breakfast, distributing food round his neighbourhood and training at home with his little kids.

 

Cute as fuck.

That was brilliantly put together. I miss Jim.

Brilliant , unfortunately you cant encapsulate in one small square the sheer entertainment afforded by Jim steadfastly maintaining the wrong boxer is ahead despite all evidence to the contrary.

 

I am old enough to actually remember Jim's big boxing nights and particularly go back to him being given an absolute boxing lesson by an Irish lad, Charlie Nash. Luckily for Jim the rules were slightly different at Ibrox and just blatantly butting someone straight in the face was par for the course.

Froch v Groves 1? 

[Bjornebye]

Listen to everything in the first two rounds. maybe into the second. Ref, commentators.. reaction of people in the crowd.... corrupt as fuck

I do. I preferred the old punditry set up with Jim Watt, Glenn McCrory and Nicky Piper.

Love Big George, was awesome at his best.Mad how he has more stamina on his comeback (i know he didn't expand as much) 

He switched trainers after losing to Ali and think he suffered from being in two minds whether to steamroller people or maintain stamina. He hardly tried against Jimmy Young until the middle of the fight.

Think that fight was fought at high altitude and he didn't acclimatise properly for it either

'What an incredible fight, utterly devoid of boxing skill'.

 

Brilliant scrap. I dont know how they weren't both left brain damaged after that.

@Kevin D Really good breakdown of the Foreman V Frazier Fight. Been looking at a lot of these lately and he's very good.
