    Kenny was shown up at heavyweight but more importantly there is only 1 place left for a european to qualify at 91k for the Olympics whilst there are three places at 81k so his best hope is to beat Ward and then kick on from there cause there is no way in hell he is going to win the euro qualifiers at either weight..

    Ya I saw his interview tonite. I wasn't watching the Brendan O' Connor show, ehh my parents had it on like :oops:

    I was very interested to hear he is going back down! You can never write him off as far as i'm concerned! Joe Ward is phenomenal, but we've seen from the worlds that anyone can have an off night! I wonder who will be favourite for 91kg so? Tommy Mac I suppose? He could surprise us all! I know there's only one spot left but he done very well in the few international fights he had at 91! Beat a french guy who was 2 time world bronze medallist!! Wud ya give him any chance of qualifying?

    If Fury had of been stopped that ring was getting stormed and it would have been mayhem and another bad news piece for boxing. As is being said on the brit forum Fury won't get fights in Manchester now with behavior like that and it will put off potential advertisers and channel 5. Reminded me of citywest this year except this one was clearly visible on tv

    I think Ward beats Egan easier this time and yeah McCarthy has a decent chance but it will be very hard with the likes of Vallily not qualified and not sure if Bertibiev is or not .

    His A-hole fans were the only thing that stopped me buying tickets for the Kings Hall show! Can you imagine sitting beside those hoors for 2 hours?...Christ, they're worse than FRA!!

    Someone like Perez would walk through Fury in a couple of rounds and then probably get attacked on the way back to the dressing room. Let's hope Fury sticks to being British after his supporters performance tonight.

    Just woke up and I'm still absolutely sickened by last night. The fury stoppage was shite but that decision in Vegas was just horrible. Terrible night for boxing

    Pac and Marquez as always great fight. Marquez must feel like **** this morning again. In the 3 fights they have had he has been so unlucky not to have beaten Pacman. I done a draw and Marquez on points. Thinking at the end of the fight I am quids in. At best for Pacman it was a draw at worst for Marquez a draw. I had Marquez winning it by a round going into the last at worst that round should of been a draw but on 2 judges cards they gave it to Pacman some dodgy scoring. I would like to see a rematch just cant see Pacman wanting to fight Marquez again. Feel this might be the end of Marquez seems he has been on the end of some poor decesions when he has boxed Pacman out of the 3 fights I would of had it 2-1 to Marquez now but the judges all had it in favour of Pacman apart from the draw fight.
