      As relates to the judges card, some rounds may have been scored 10-10 rounds. Freddie should hang 'em up with the same win % as Marciano.

          I think its a big joke.

          Why were the crowd sucking his nuts everytime he threw one of his wild punches?

          It's not that good of a story geez. A sportsman going into another sport, big deal.

            It's not a stretch mate. Basically everyone throws straight rights with better technique than that on their first day in the boxing gym.

              There'll be a bit of a backlash against Gervais after that gift decision over Grant Bovey.

                  Did Calzaghe train him for this fight? He throws slapping punches like a girl.

                    It's strange how you can show so much coordination in 1 sport and so little in another.

                    Something you have to consider is nerves. He came out of the corner looking jittery. Perhaps if he can relax more in there he will throw his punches better.

                      Yeah Freddie is definitely a few years away from understanding how to box. He was rushing in with his hands down, was slapping, was smothering his own work, over eager, had a stance that wasn't doing him any favours, was hanging his chin in the air, was generally getting over excited.

                      Still, hats off to him for giving it a go. I'll wait to see how much he improves in his next outing before passing judgement.
