Thread: Any boxing fans?

  1. #1

    Any boxing fans?

    Eubank or smith ?

    My view is eubank can gas and Likes time off during flurry’s. Smith is classy and been in with the likes of canello. A really tough lad

    Eubank has the genes and chin, very quick and the bigger man

    Going to be a great fight imo that could go either way, however I’m going to go with the bigger man Eubank for a points win.

    I think Bruno was the last boxer I took a real interest in, although I did watch a few fights between Foch and a guy called, I think George something, they were quite good.

    That would be groves. He was very unlucky. Stopped too early that fight . One of the early stadium sell outs

    That was the one UG, George Groves. Was it Foch who had his team wearing 'And Still' T shirts, or was that someone else ?

    I’m not sure but would guess you would be right. Genuine hatred between them.
    Pretty sure they’ve resolved it now and do a roadshow together
    The rematch was classed as the punch of the decade as froch knocked groves out. Both great English fighters imo. Frochs achievements were superb

    I'm so out of touch I thought Chris Eubank, is he making a comeback? so in answer to your question UG, not me.

    It’s his son Khris. He was 2/1 to win and got KO’D for the first time in his career, in round 4 . Wasn’t expecting that at all. Brutal

    Sorry he was 1/2 ( the favourite) the other guy was 2/1 or 3/1 underdog . A real upset. Even the pros are lost for words
