    I thought so! he's a true romany looking lad in terms of skin tone that's how many look. Didn't know Buckland was but that's nice to know both good fighters and good lads by sounds.

    Jpab good post mate, totally agree. I'd keep Selby away from Lindsay for now stick him in with Smith again. He beats Smith everytime IMO. I like to see him tighten up with a more solid jab, develop on the inside game as well. As you and Bryn said he did get hit with Right hands over top of his jab.

    He's bamboozling guys but both guys don't have the attributes/style to trouble him IMO. Lindsay i could see having a bit more success with his classy punches. Noticed when Selby was made to lead at range Simpson did counter a few times nicely with compact hooks. Lindsay i think would work off back foot with lateral movement and look to work in off counters and pot shots and take fight on outside. Not saying Selby can't beat Lindsay but it's a dangerous fight and high risk fight for little reward. Lindsay's stock is at it's lowest ever right now.

    Smith's comments after the fight were more disrespectful than anything that happened in the ring.


    Didn't shut Smith up!

    He looks like a cross between Blue Jones from Suckerpunch and Django Reinhardt.

    Sure Smith was saying he got lucky, it was a off night etc. No credit to the kid at all just making out it was a fluke..
