Nah, that's the Watson brood.

Theophane not only smashed the granny out of danny garcia he also ruined him?

[LHL]

I had it close but clear to Theophane probably with a bit of bias as you have to respect theophane moving over there. Bunce is playing that up a bit...as usual

I'm pleased for Gethin, his body shots were really good. I remember him beating John Feweks back on ITV but his career never really pushed on from there.

I'd love to see him get the winner of Matthews V's Crolla rematch.

He'd be mismatched against either of them, I'd think.

I don't think fighting Jason Welborn at Walsall Town Hall is what many people imagined Frankie Gavin to be doing over 5 years after his World Championship gold.

[Lazarus]

I really don't understand these retards crowds. They just booed the opponent and Gavin.
