BOXING THREAD

I agree with you about Fury he needs to step up and certainly someone like Rogan would tell us where he really is at this point. He certainly talks a good fight though I'll give him that.

Thats it, he's at every televised show, wether he's fighting or not and gets interviewed every time. The interviewers are always asking "when are we going to see you in action again??". Instead they should be saying "Let us know when you're fighting somebody decent and we'll be happy to see you in action." But saying that hes only 20-21? He's fighting McDermott next so that will be progress and hopefully he can live up to the hype and give us a british heavyweight to be proud of.

Sad news on the death of Aturro Gatti

The fights with Micky Ward were legendary.

Arturo Gatti is my favourite boxer of all time. The ultimate blood and guts warrior R.I.P.

A great boxer

yeah his wife is the main suspect

[VanHelsing]

If she did it she's robbed the world of a legendary fighter, a humble one too.

Matthew Hall (El Dorito) will be a World Champion. He defends his British and Commonwealth title against the gobshite that is Anthony Small on the undercard of the Khan fight.

There was a "Bit" of needle in the press conference, Matty is well up for "Dancing" on Smalls face.

Hopefully Hall can do everybody a favour and shut Small's mouth.
