BTW - this is the bit where you mention Carl Davis Drumond, conveniently overlooking Chagaev's one year lay off. You silly cunt.

yeah, i did raise my eyebrows when i heard them say that. crazy.

i didn't hear them call magee a legend though.

Super middle weight Brian Magee floored light welterweight Ricky Hatton?? Hardly a massive shock, but I think you're thinking of Eamon Magee ??

Dirrells best win is a DQ over a small MW.
Magee became a WBA SMW champ, and has a better resume.
Remember how I owned you in a SMW debate and gave you my expert tip on who to pick? Bet you do

You picked Froch over Ward. You never owned me. You pussed out on a bet.

How can anyone take the sport seriously when the commentators say about this fight:

"Kessler has sent shock waves through the boxing world tonight"..seriously?? By beating a 37 year old washed up nobody??

"McGee is a boxing legend"...really?? Honestly I never heard of him until I saw the video on You tube.

Its like if they say it in an excited and husky voice then it must be an exciting fight..pathetic.

Give me Larry Merchant and HBO any day...

Spot on pal,absolutely spot on.
