    When you think about it, you actually did the T-shirt stunt to me before Haye used the same tactic if Im right...

    Maybe you were hayes T-shirt inspiration HH, & I aint kidding! Haye & the dark lord read this forum so maybe you were the caltalyst for the T-shirt madness that went to a global level, just a thought...

    This fight is terrible, end of in my opinion.

    Burn's has the ability to maybe defeat the other belt holder's in the division, but instead his defence's are horrendous. Now we all know this is down to he who shall not be named, but Nelson's "defence" for this fight is as bad as the actual match up

    I originally wanted Burns to win but since I have lost respect for Billy Nelson and never had any for Dunky I want Cook to win. It's not happening though as it's avert poor match up. Still as much as I like Burns if he gets banjoed I'm gonna love to hear from Billy on here.

    Sorry Alba you're ok :lol:

    :deal Correct.

    You will get the inevitable thread from Billy or whoever with a title not to disimilar to "Ricky wins again, proving all the haters wrong!!! :lol::lol: :rofl :rofl"

    When in actual fact everyone likes Ricky, and most believe in his ability.

    This is my last statement regarding Burns v Cook;
    Its a joke of 'world title fight' and Cook has no rights being in the ring with Burns. Billy knows this deep down but has to defend this **** as to keep in with Frank. Everybody can see its a shocker of a fight but will support Burns anyway in the hope he stands up and fights the world elite i.e broner/fana etc.

    The trigger for all this anger is Billy himself for his arrogant, self-richeous and pure bull**** he reponds with when he is met with an opinion that doesnt agree with his. He also threw pelters at Lee McAlistair for fighting a 'bum' for the vacant commonwealth strap and made a thread to do so, imo its bad thing to do when your a pillar of the boxing community when he should be backing Lee to do a job. We all know Billy is an hypocrite that loathes anyone with a valid opinion and can back up their opinion with facts and sense.

    You guys all know the score and you know the game inside out by now. Just know that Froch is toeing the line for us fans and is doing things the proper old skool warrior way by going the traditional route for the belts (commonwealth/lonsdale/wbc). It just shows Burns up when you consider Froch's record and line of defences. But hey, I wouldn't expect no different from a F.W fighter :)
