Christ I didn't have a clue there was a shooting
That must have been scary as fcck
For a couple of minutes my heartbeat was beating as fast as it ever has and with thousands of people screaming and jumping over counters and into shops im just glad I survived.
Ill tell you what though id go back to Vegas and the MGM again tomorrow if I could
I was there from the uk and it was a great performance from Antony.
Shame about after the fight with the shooting which was scary as hell and im not afraid to admit it
There was a shooting?!?!
Tbh I think Ogogo won't be too popular. I feel he made a big mistake in joining Gbp before the uk fans got to know him. Should of joined Eddie Hearn built up his fan base then went on to join Gbp and be more known. The dude would of got hyped to shit over here with the medal and all. Atleast he's fought on some massive undercards.
Yes the shooting happened after the floyd fight when we was leaving the building and I saw a guy who was shot through the leg leaving a massive hole.
I think Ogogo will become a big star and with his Bronze medal, subway adverts and been on a dancing show I think he's quite well known in the uk has it is. I think more boxers should branch out like Khan and Ogogo
The media reported that a temporary wall fell over, making the sound and that someone had been injured. Several people reported a gun shot, but this is the first eye witness I've heard from.
Yes I know a massive attempted cover up by the MGM Grand but just ask those people with bullet holes in their leg if it was a wall or a bullet
How can David Haye help it if he needed a 5 hour operation which may force him to retire.
Thats not ducking anyone in my book its unfortunately something that happens in sport.
I also think if Fury fights Wilder, Wilder stops him even though id be wanting Fury to win
Ouch, Warren has lost Brook, Bellew and Groves to Hearn and DeGale to Hennessey. How is BoxNation going to appeal to British fight fans when his two world champs are fighting on same night. I plan on cancelling my subscription straight after that fight because there is no chance either will fight until end of May/start of June. Who else is in his camp who will have a high profile fight? I dont see any promising prospect either... Groves will fight Abraham/Stieglitz winner, Bellew has the Chilemba fight and if he wins that, faces WBC champ and Brook has Alexander. By the end of Autumn, Hearn could have 4 world champs in Brook, Bellew, Groves and Froch and thats not talking about what Barker is doing.
Fact is Hearn is mates with his stable and they have trust in him, Ive heard Warren takes a large slice of his fighters pie and when they try and complain, he takes em to court. Actions dont lie, British fighters wants to be in Hearns stable atm.
Surely you are joking about cancelling Boxnation just because Groves has gone. What about the world championship fights you'll never see only on Youtube????????
For a tenner its worth keeping just for them
I agree, that would b a good fight. One thought that Chisora won a close fight against Helenius! Problem is that both will probably wait for a Klit fight. Not enough top fighters fight each other. I would favour Price in this fight though!! :boxing:
I agree that price would win but it would definitely be his biggest test.
The only problem with that Chisora/Helenius fight is that Robert said he broke his hand in the 3rd round so was fighting one handed. If he had both hands would Del Boy have done as well as he did?
By the way i thought del boy won that fight but I think Price would be both Robert and Derek but both would be tough and I think tougher than Thompson
Great choice by mcguigan with a unification after against quigg.
Would be huge for British boxing and I would want Quigg to win seeing as he's English but I think Frampton stops Quigg late on
To be able to fight for a title he needs to fight someone in the top 10,
someone like Abraham,Oosthuizen or Rodriguez
The winner of them fights can fight for a title
That's the bad thing about Barker winning. A lot of these Brit ham and eggers are going to think they can get a title shot now.
Saunders wouldn't be anywhere in the running if Geale had won.
Believe it or not Saunders wll become a world champion and possible 2 weight world champ
I like both fighters and I was gutted when the show got cancelled but im just glad I can still use my ticket on the new date.
Fury is kidding himself Haye is not scared of him and will beat him.
The only way Fury wins if he hits Haye first but I cant see it because of hayes speed
Once price wins the lonsdale belt outright he will move on to the european scene.
After this fight I think he needs 1 or 2 more defences to win it outright.
There is no one in the UK to challenge him at this time so I dont know where those defences would come from but he is the next big thing in the heavyweight division but he needs to keep fighting every 3 to 4 months becuase he's already early 30's
He will win this fight and im sure he will become a champ once again but im not sure it will be at light welter.
He should move up and fight paulie very light puncher who khan would beat again and im sure paulie would love to try to get revenge.
Khan will become champ again but he'll never be a p4p fighter because of his chin
I would love to see this what a fight it would be.
Even though Price would be slight favourite but any lapse in concentration and Del boy would K.O him
The new Naz dont make me laugh.
This guy at best will be Euro champ unless the world scene collapses then he has a chance.
He has good boxing skills but no power but I expect him to win on saturday.
Kell Brook when coming through said he was the new naz and when he realised he was no where near naz he has developed his own style and hes becoming successful now
Im not a Khan fan but hes correct he needs to leave Vince and move to another trainer.
He doesnt have to go to america though there are plenty of decent british trainers
Burns broke him with an uppercut a minute into the 7th round.
Totally agree it was the uppercut in the 7th which changed the fight.
Also it doesnt matter how many rounds Burns was down by it was obvious to all if it continued Gonzalez would get stopped anyway
Not vintage Burns but like a Champion he is he came through it
Ive read 3 different reports and im sick of hearing Khan saying hes taking a pay cut.
He'll still be getting close to a million so if thats not enough go back to america and stay there.
Ive been to 1 khan fight live and that was against Barrera and i wont be going to anymore
Carson"Journeyman"Jones has a draw with a last minute replacement. How was Kell Brook life and death with this guy?
Firstly Jones /Brook was 12 rounds and this fight was 8.
If it went 12 Jones would have k.o'd Byrne who was tiring a lot in the last 3 rounds
Before Saturday I would've said Barker is the weakest of the 3 but now im not so sure.
Macklin doesnt want to fight Murray or Barker and he's said he thinks he's above them.
If they did have a mini Tournament I would love Murray to come out on top
Before the Rees fight Id have said Burns will win but now Broner has to be a big favourite.
The crowd of under 5000 was pathetic if that was the uk there would have been minimum 15000 and I thought Adrian Broner was a massive draw????
Im not an amir khan fan but give the guy props for taking this fight.
The 2 options were Guerrero or Collazo and I think Khan has chosen the tougher fight
I keep saying Boxnation is the best thing to happen to Boxing but some people seem to always slag it off and I dont know why.
Would you prefer to watch it without HD or not at all??
Some peoples mentality is strange be happy that we've got it becuase if it went we'd lose a lot of top class boxing
