For real though i am sure a flush shot from Tyson or manny could stun a gorilla stil. Not KO them or hurt them too much but stun them.
You are comparing Pacquaio's punching power to Mike Tyson's?
Who would you favor?
Floyd by close decision but he would have to work very hard for it.
Obviously with Khan there is the chance of a stoppage though.
But I do think Khan had just as good a chance of anyone in beating Floyd due to his speed and style.
Floyd is not stupid, there is a reason he didn't fight Khan.
Styles make fights and Khan would have caused him problems, maybe not enough to beat him though.
The low blows won't have had an effect as clearly Kovalev has no balls.
He got hyped up so much as this tough monster and he got stopped by someone who was feather fisted at SMW.
Yeah the ref should not have waved it off but Kovalev was not winning the fight from that stage anyway.
Bradley has BOTTLED it. His ducking of Khan is even worse considering he called Khan out to start with.
I've lost all the respect I had for Bradley.
Khan should forget about Bradley now. Beat Judah, then move up to 147...
LOL at the Ireland-England riot being last year.
LOL at boxing being up there with football as the top sport in England.
I love the noise and passion at the boxing. I would hate to go to fights in America, as the atmosphere adds loads to a fight.
If Bradley wanted the fight, the fight would have happened.
He called Khan out, and then he bottled out of it. Simple as that.
Bradley is scared of losing to Khan, because he wants an even bigger payday against Pac or Mayweather.

That's the first time I've seen that. Thanks for sharing :biggthump
This defeat could be a blessing in disguise for DeGale. Like has been said, his corner did him no favours whatsoever for that fight. He needs to get rid of Jim McDonnell straight away and kick on..
No way. To talk all that trash and bet your own purse to your bitter rival and once again get beat and humbled by him that really is alot to swallow. That's no blessing man, belive me.
That will eat him up.
We will see. When Khan got destroyed by Prescott, many people said there was no way he could come back from it. He changed to the Wildcard gym and has not looked back since.
The same may happen to DeGale. He needs to get rid of McDonnell because he was partly to blame for DeGale not winning that fight more clearly (I had DeGale by a round).
He lost a fight he thought he won. I can't see it scaring him so bad that he can't come back from it. I actually think it will make him even more determined and more hungry to succeed. Time will tell..
This replacement fight is not going to be a contest at all! Just hope DeGale/Groves lives up to the fight.
Thanks. Looks like it's true.
I've added a couple of other sources to the first page too.
I posted the thread as soon as the news had broken on Sky Sports News.
Bet Adam Booth was the driving force behind that
Haha, no doubt about it.
Right decision though, Groves is a decent bloke so deserves to get his payday.
No he's not. He's simply a victim of living in Germany, under German trainers and promoters.:nonono:
That's his problem. He has the choice where to train and who promotes him.
His actions a few days before the fight are unforgivable. If you are gonna bottle it, don't do it 3 or 4 days before fight night.
Not only has he ruined Cleverly's big fight at the o2, he has cost his own fans travelling over from Germany a lot of money!
British boxing is in very good shape.
Khan will be champion again, Brook is getting close, other great prospects such as Price on the way up too..
This thread is gonna keep getting bumped for a long time.
There will be a lull in any era of boxing. I am sure there will be some new young boxers to come through here in Blighty.
However we have some good young talent as it is.
Khan, Cleverly, Brook, Price, Groves, Degale, Quigg, saunders & I am hopeful on Eubank Jr as well.
Absolutely, we have some great talent coming through.
Eubank Jr could even be better than his Dad. I think he will go really far.
You can add Frankie Gavin to your list if he sorts himself out too.
You may get your fun if Ward beats Froch but this thread will get bumped again when Khan regains his titles and the likes of Brook, DeGale, Mitchell etc are World Champions..
anyone but that cunt frankie gavin,he's useless
Nah he's not useless, the kid has got ability.
He has looked like **** in his last 2 fights but that's cos he is fighting at the wrong weight cos he is fukking his life up outside of boxing.
If he sorts himself out at 140, even 135, then he can do well.
That Spaniard seemed good to be fair, he came to win. John is no Mayweather but soeen fective, id like to see him in with Katsidis if he gets through Mitchell. Thats a FIGHT right there!
Yeah, you're right that would be a cracker of a fight if Murray can up his game against Mitchell.
I like Murray but he takes far too many shots for my liking. Entertaining to watch though..
