MichaelRobartes Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Fair play to Smith. Soldiering on despite looking genuinely nonplussed by what is going on around him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handsofclay Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 I was really disappointed that the brave tactics of both defeated opponents at the top of the bill didn't garner greater reward. Briggs opponent attempted the mass and sudden exhalation of air from his lungs tactic last employed by James J Corbett v Bob Fitzsimmons in 1897, in which he was deliberately being walloped in the stomach in the hope that the sudden mass evacuation of air would knock Briggs to the canvas. Fair play to the American, he didn't even flinch. Unfortunately, as the Argentinian soon discovered, this tactic cannot be employed for very long before it results in the fighter's own demise. In the case of Haye, his opponent, unbeaten in 30 fights, relied on the tactic of trying to get Haye to bust his knuckles on his forehead or to damage his toe as his lumbering frame hit the canvas at every given opportunity, each time missing Haye's feet. Apart from this I seen nothing offensively from either opponent. The ringwalks were the only offensive thing on view in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AirlieBeachRed Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) Were two opponents who came across as piss poor and scared. Briggs is a fighter of the past. Lennox Lewis gave him pasting donkeys years ago. Lewis woulda taken Haye apart as will Joshua if they meet.

The Coach Posted May 22, 2016 Report Share Posted May 22, 2016 That will be another pointless fight between these two then. Possibly stretch to 3rd round this time before Haye KOs Briggs. I know Haye has to go through the routine ranked fighters, but jesus this is garbage to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can tell he says "dench" a lot and is - if I remember correctly - related to our old pal Emmanuel Frimpong who was famously spotted disembarking a taxi at Ashton Gate some years back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Leave It Yeah" - another Lethal Bizzle catchphrase - was actually written across the vest JET revealed after THAT goal against Rovers. Who'd have thought Lethal Bizzle would have such a convoluted place in the history of the Bristol derby. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
