yardy Posted July 16, 2017 Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 Outstanding performance from Eubank, if he had some power he would be a elite fighter and one of the best p4p. Massive respect for Abraham too what a warrior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SARJ Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 So let's hear your predictions boys: if Groves and Eubanks meet in this tournament who you got? Based on current form I'd go with Groves to outbox him and win on points. His jab is far superior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craven arms Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 The only one that can beat Mayweather is Mayweather, I think Floyd could put Mcgregor away inside 1 round both fighters know this, but Floyd will try and extend the fight for the fans entertainment and by doing this may get sloppy dropping his hands showboating giving Mcgregor a chance, but if Mayweather has is game head we wont even get to see the first set of commercials.

He's just pissed off because Hennessy and his uncle Peter met with David Haye's new company today to do a deal about a fight with Hughie. Loyalty is a very big thing in that community and he hates Haye. He can't understand it. He'll u-turn on it soon enough. If he gets let off after that hearing he'll be back.

Yeah, both of them! You're exactly right @Phileas Fogg, it's just the latest in the sequence of Tyson rage quits, like a teenage boy on a Playstation! The Instagram post before the 'retirement' one was this: 11 hours ago, yardy said: Must be a decade since Floyd ko'd anyone what makes you think he could ko a elite bigger fighter that has never been ko'd? Take your point mate, the last person PBF Ko'd was Victor Ortiz when the latter was trying to kiss him sorry for nutting him in 2011. However, McGregor is an elite fighter in a completely different sport to the one he's competing in, so despite Floyd's latter day feather- fistedness, I wouldn't be entirely surprised if he knocked McGregor out- or, more likely, made him quit. You'd expect Messi to score against a back four made up of All Blacks in their football debut wouldn't you, despite them being bigger and also elite sportmen in a sport as similar to football as boxing is to MMA!

I think a better comparison would be Federer vs the number one squash player in a tennis match at Wimbledon. Theoretically a transferable skill set with many parallels, but fundamental differences in technique and positioning make it heavily in Federer's favour. I see your point though.

Fair comment Phileas, but it was me who made the initial dodgy parallel! I was going for the (admittedly slightly tortuous) football/ rugby analogy as i saw the kicking in both as the basic transferable skill which is more cultured and varied in football (like the punching in boxing) and the extras like rucks, scrums, line outs etc as the grappling and alternate striking skills in MMA that are massive there but irrelevent in the ring. @Super, It is indeed going to be great fun watching Broner get pasted all around Brooklyn! Frampton on C5 on Saturday night too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stortz Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Frampton has missed the weight for tomorrow in Belfast, he came in a pound over. The fight goes ahead but it's no longer a WBC eliminator. Rank amatuerism from Frampton personally and especially Cyclone there, he only moved up to Featherweight 2 fights ago! I'm really surprised, he always seemed a model pro before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's resigned as a director of Cyclone in the last week or so too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
