The only dissapointing fight for me was Ward, where he was outclassed and never really turned up. I wasn't even particularly dissapointed with the Dirrel fight, i was there and it wasn't as bad (or as close for large parts) as is now made out.

Modern British great? hell yeah! In an era of paper chamions, politics and ducking he's a bona fide beacon of boxing sportsmanship and integrity.

the mans an inspiration no doubt
