        LOL Norwich bum, the only average fighter you produced was Jon Thaxton, too bad I'm related to him.

            I believe that there will be a void for a number of years, with a couple of exciting boxers before the new generation.

            All I'm saying that is James Degale doesn't look special, if you see him talk he has no class and David haye's speech on him (I think it was him) saying that he is effective in amatuers because it's basically points system but his style won't be effective during his professional run.

              Over in the U.K, we have an interesting set of middles/supper middles who all crossed over from the amateurs. James Degale, George Groves, Darren Sutherland, have been compared to Benn, Eubank and Watson. For those in the USA, these guys kept British boxing on its toes during the late 80's/early90's... And they hope the same happens with Degale,Groves and Sutherland.

              Over in the States, how is the emerging talent looking? I mean, you guys had a poor olympic games, to say the least, so where are your boys gonna come from?

              Other than, Kirkland and Ortiz i hav'nt seen much in terms of promising American boxers... And it really saddens me.

              How can we keep up producing talented boxers? I heard Golden Boy are having an influence over the Amatuer American Olympic team, will that help produce better boxers?

              What are your guys thoughts about this, boxing could well be dying if we fail to produce any more quality fighters.

              What you guys think? Are we in trouble?

                LOL.... I HAVE NEVER WATCHED ANY OF BUNCES PROGRAMMES....

                Why assume? If i did watch Bunces programme i would give him credit by mentioning an interesting topic i watched on his programme... etc etc



                And for the record, Bunce talks ****... He has'nt got a clue half the time hence why i don't watch any of his ****ty programmes. Its the same old stuff, Calzaghe this Calzaghe that... a load of crap.

                  Boing is looking good in UK. There's been a lot of big fights involving Brits recently and it seemed as if the whole country was aware of them.

                  The amateur game in also very solid here and all the boxing gyms I've been too are very inviting.

                      Stop looking at the past and start looking at the future. Often sentimentality can get in the way of really good fights.

                      There are many many great fighters and fights out there
