    Frampton had the royal hump that Cyclone hadn't delivered him a massive fight against LSC or someone of a similar stature at Windsor Park as promised afaik, instead he got slated to fight that no mark who fell over pre fight at the Odyssey, his career seemed to be going in reverse.

    Think it was a stroke of luck that previous opponent falling in the shower, as he'd obviously already fallen out with them before the fight and then missing the weight.

    Always think this referee looks like Jim Murphy btw.

    It will be interesting when our friends in the north check in to let us know what they thought of the game. @Owl Visiting @OwlsonlineAdmin? it`s always good to hear an alternative view to ours.

    Sums up our season so far really, disappointing. We just aren't at the races, and there's no way we're suddenly gonna hit form and stay in the top 6, we've got mid table written all over us. I've not joined what is becoming the majority of Wednesday fans in calling for the managers head but maybe we've started to go stale, and a new face with fresh ideas might be what we need. Our current first 11 is almost identical to the one which lost the playoff final a couple of seasons ago. Despite all the money spent since we somehow haven't managed to strengthen our side. 

    As for today, thought it was a poor game, agree you were the better side and could have nicked it. Never felt we were going to score to be honest.

    Anybody watching frampton tonight against the bum,I expect @Owl Visiting is out celebrating getting a result against promotion contenders  :whistle:

    :laugh:

    Alright all, predicted an entertaining 2-2 draw on here last night, so probably my fault for the snooze fest today. If we were further up the table I wouldn't mind a point against your current side but we are desperate for points. Feels like a write-off for us this season already.

    Should be routine for Frampton tonight, will be interesting to see if he does anything different now he's with Jamie Moore.

  4. Interesting chat with Hearn from yesterday about his involvement with boxing in America. Don't like the idea of him promoting an American going up against a Brit which could well happen if Jacobs ends up fighting Saunders. He's always talked about his ambition to go and conquer America though.

    He's one of the main guys behind iFL TV - a really good YouTube channel for boxing content.

    They're well respected and get interviews with all the top guys. They frequently have long chats with Eddie Hearn which are always worth a watch.

     

     

    Love IFL, my favourite YouTube channel by a long way, he gets a lot of stick but I always really enjoy the Hearn interviews. Billy Joe as well, despite him being so boring in the ring.

    That maybe true tbf,but still it's odd because he could still headline a sky fight on a Saturday night if it was against anybody decent 

    Or maybe its punishment for the worst ring walk in the history of boxing.

    Hiya Owl, you're right there. His best performance ever was losing against Vitali. His resume is top class though, he never turns down a fight.

    I saw an interview with him the other day where he claimed he has made £3.5 million from boxing so fair play to him. Pretty shite tonight though.

    Fair play to him, probably deserves it with getting in the ring with all those guys. Is there a current heavyweight in boxing who's had as many difficult fights?

    Definitely a horrible man though.

    He's dropped right off the radar since the frampton fight which is odd because it wasn't one sided by any means 

    I think its partly due to the lack of charisma. Don't think Hearn sees him particularly marketable. 

  9. Started buffering so had to pause for 10 minutes, thought the stoppage was harsh but may have been in part due to the cuts, but is that the referees decision to make when the doctor gave the all clear? Fair play to Takam thought he deserved to see the final bell. First time Joshua hasn't impressed me tonight.

    Hope you're good owl!

    Boxing streams on reddit is normally the best place online as I'm sure you are aware. If you download acestream as a program you can copy and paste the url from the reddit links into it and it plays them without the rotten porn, ad overlays and Russian malware.

    I am personally pissed enough to have paid for the sky box office this evening haha.

    Cheers Stortz, I have done exactly that this evening, always seems to work well for me until the main event, then it starts to buffer. 

    Another good win for you today. Think it's time for a new manager at our place sadly.

    Be flipping between the 2 channels,marching on together almost made me want to put the gloves on again today :laugh:

    Very disappointed with your result today. This division is ridiculous at times. 

  12. Should be an exciting fight, we'll get to find out how good Eubank really is. You'd expect Smith to be waiting in the final for the winner, another one to look forward to. I like this format, I hope all the fighters stay injury free and we see it through to its conclusion.
