when i say fighters i mean offensively. GGG, Sergey kovalev, Wlad, froch, etc. We have better attacking fighters, but lack in the defensive skills. Wlad mastered defensively when he got an American trainer.
Sergey Kovalev looks ok defensively, as does golokin but both have American based trainers.
As i say, the best combination imo is a Eastern block fighter with an American trainer. As this is proving to be the case.Comment

you know what they say...not letting your opponent throw because you have him in a bear hug is the best defense.when i say fighters i mean offensively.

Wasting his time fighting sub-par opposition will only be detrimental to his progression as a boxer. Warren should just hurry the fuck up and get him fighting contenders. I'd rather he spend 2 years fighting contenders then facing one right before he challenges for a title.
Then people wonder why British boxers suck at the highest level.Comment

To be fair, he's had injuries. He's won the British and Commenwealth and is now fighting for the European. If he wins his next fight, he's mando for Quillin. Don't see much wrong with his progression.Wasting his time fighting sub-par opposition will only be detrimental to his progression as a boxer.

I don't really rate him though tbhComment

i'll say this about BJS... he's working his way up. He's already on the rise in Britain and he's moving up the Euro level. Would love to see him take on Murray or so next... but looks like he's lining up for Quillin after this win. Mora wants that since he almost had the fight, so maybe they can fight each otherComment

That punch from the Cobra in your sig....brings a tear to my eye it's so beautiful.Comment

He's fought a few times against meaningless opposition and will continue to do so for a couple more years. Warren's either too careful or borderline reckless with his fighters.Comment

people say they dont rate him, whats he done wrong not to rate him??
Hes got a good Amateur pedigree. He is doing the Carl froch root ging through all the belts.
He looks slick to me and seems very humble and honest.
Hes only 24, hes not far from number 1 contendership, i cant really see any thing wrong as yet???Comment
