Comments Thread For: O'Shaquie Foster Calls Out Joe Cordina: "I Got Smoke For Ya"

[Mick Higgs]

Location could be an issue. I'd imagine Team Cordina are going to want it in one of the 3 Cardiff stadium's this Summer, while Foster may not be so keen to travel. Fa$t £ddie may be pretty minted but he's going to need to put together some seroius undercard to raise the ca$h Foster may demand & with Matchroom's over female friendly shows of late I gotta wonder if £ddie can manage the mega card needed.

If GRJ is going to make a comeback, then he should target O'Shaquie Foster @ 130, or Issac Cruz @ 135! He can't come off the couch and fight Tank, and nobody would want to see it, coming off a loss. GRJ MAN UP!

How do we know what Foster is willing to do? He doesn't have much of a name anywhere. The purses would be bigger in the UK.

BlackRobb. I thought that was well out of line TBH. Sid Knee does take patriotism to extremes in always saying the British fighter will win, but I know he'd say exactly the same about AJ or Anthony Yarde or Denzell Bentley.

Bronx2245. GRJ has ruined his own career by refusing to fight more than once a year. Is it cos he's cycling? I dunno, but it has been an incredibly self-destructive approach to his chosen profession. Literally, guys like Archie Moore, Harry Greb, Ted 'Kid' Lewis & Maxie Rosenbloom had more fights in a year than he's had in a career!

Just wanted to see if you were going to say that Cordina is being caught at the right time, when he isn’t prepared.

Good that you didn’t. And good that you like the fight and think Cordina should not back down from the challenge.

Actually, Cordina had been out for nearly 11 months against Shav when i thought it was only 8 months. I actually missed it until it was said on the live broadcast. But he's got the rounds now and is ready to go.

As for thinking Cordina would back down... He's called for a unification next. We don't back down. We mean what we say. Unless of course, you're name is Fury. But other than that. He means it. It's Foster who i have doubts against for obvious historical reasons. We've been here hundreds of times to know how it goes. Talk, then get the interest going. Then run away. But as i said, we'll see.

I just hope the plans to have him defend against Barrett don't go ahead. If he gets the winner, i'm cool with that. But unification comes first.

[Sid-Knee]

You say that about all American fighters, especially Black ones. If Foster "just isn't very good", then why would you like this fight? If Foster "just isn't very good", then neither are Rey Vargas or Mark Masgayo or Azat Hovhannisyan. See how foolish you sound? Put your personal biases aside for once.

There are many black fighters who i think are the real deal. I just don't think Foster is anything to write home about. He's already lost to two ham and eggers to boot. If this was the record of any Brit, they'd be called an out right bum for it.

I want the fight because it's a unification. Foster is decent, but i wouldn't go any further than that.

Who has Vargas beaten? Please name them? Magsayo is a bum. Plain and simple. He even struggled with a shot fighter who had been out of the ring for ages in Ceja. I gave him another chance to see if it was just nerves with his first time on a decent stage. Then he had Russell who had been out for 2 years. Again, it was close. Any decent fighter under those conditions would have dominated Russell. Then when he faces his first decent fighter who is active, he gets dominated. He then gets dominated again with another decent active fighter. Sorry, but he's pure shlt and doesn't have any identity. He doesn't know whether he's boxing or fighting. Problem is, he can't do either very well.

I must not think Hovhannisyan is very good? Why would i think he's good? He hasn't done anything either. Name a single decent fringe level fighter he's beaten?

Point out specifically what i've said that either wasn't true, or wasn't reasonable? The only one between the two us us with bias that i keep on pointing out here, is with you. Every single time. I'm not interested in what your delusions tell you. I care about the reality of situations. That isn't being biased. If your fighters weren't constantly doing things that were a problem, i wouldn't need to point it out. Problem is, there isn't a day when at least a handful aren't doing dodgy shlt.

It makes the most sense over here. Foster doesn't sell tickets in the US. I expect a good payday for coming over here, but i'm not interested in hearing the usual delusion of thinking they're worth millions when they're nowhere near to being worth it.

I don't expect this to get off the ground. We've been here too many times with Americans and them shutting the fight down regardless of how much money is on the table. This will just be another case in a long line of fighters where it goes the same way. They talk the talk, but certainly don't do any walking.

I've never said the Brit is always going to win. I just call it how i see it. It's all the madness i can't stand.

But yeah, with the racism part i have to laugh. I've defended AJ to the hilt if he's in the right. Lennox Lewis is my favourite fighter in history. I don't do ethnicity wars like most on here. But hey, i'm used to projections on here. It's just part and parcel of it all.

There are at least a couple of posters on here who are prejudiced & I'm one of many people calling them out. I think its really important to NOT throw accusations of prejudice around where there is no cause which is why I said that. Racism is a lot worse than prejudice but that is a whole other topic & really nothing to do with boxing.

Masgayo isn't a bum. He barely lost to Vargas and was competitive against Figueroa. Ceja isn't a bum either. Figueroa struggled with him. I guess Brandon Figueroa is also a bum. I bet you have a Ricky Hatton poster on the ceiling of your bedroom because only UK fighters are worthy. You're a real delusional piece of work.
