Comments Thread For: Woodhall on Froch-Groves; Yafai Update; Hamilton

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The news that British light welterweight champion Darren Hamilton has signed a high-profile promotional deal with Matchroom has hardly come as a shock. What is a surprise is that it has taken this long for his talent to be recognized.

Hamilton’s rise in recent years has been nothing short of extraordinary. In March 2011, he was making up the numbers in a Southern area title fight against Peter McDonough. Except McDonough couldn’t handle him, retiring on his stool after 8.

He was brought in as a selected opponent for John Watson, supposedly rebuilding after losing his British title. Watson had the advantage of boxing in his home city of Liverpool: Hamilton outpointed him over eight. In May 2012, he was brought in at four days notice to take on defending British champion Ashley Theophane. But the useful Theophane couldn’t get him under control, losing his title on a unanimous decision. [Click Here To Read More]

[lutenco]

GROVES didn'T put FROCH KO but he KNOCKED him DOWN like no one;FROCH was really HURT much more than in TAYLOR's fight;WOODHALL is a close friend of FROCH...disgusting words,i wanted see him in the same situation as GROVES so we would have heard differents words from his mouth!

I've heard Woodhall and McCracken both this week and they've both been talking the same smack,Groves was slowing down,so what ! Froch was slow for 9 rounds,Groves could have lost every round and took three knockdowns and possibly still one,but I'm sure that judge who refereed te Scott Chisora fight would have stiffed Groves like the referee Foster did.both were clearly paid by Hearn,they should be released from the British boxing authorities immediately,disgusting behaviour from both.

more back handed comments from the Froch camp.

Woodhall is only ruining his own credibility of which there was very little to begin with.

Grow up. Conspiracy theories on this are ridiculous

[Jewish-Reptile]

One or two of the judges had Groves only one point ahead ! Why don't you grow up ?

These conspiracy theories sound ridiculous because they perpetuate throughout boxing,time and time again.if you don't like opinion that's your problem but don't try and make out it is some half witted view when Groves schooled and dropped Froch in the first seven rounds.the guy was at a loss and told his trainer in response to McCracken telling Froch you're in control,he replied 'I'm not in control' whilst in the corner between around rounds 5-6.even Froxh knew he was losing by a wide margin.

Ritchie Woodhall would say that seeing as who he works for and all the crap predictions he made bofore the fight,

His face was a picture at the end, he looked like a guy who had sniffed nasty fart

[phatcatboxing]

Woodhall is a boring, bias bastard and needs to go do one.

[umop-ap!sdn]

And we're supposed to take his words as more than a biased opinion?
