    Obviously he has received some major stick on here and he has deserved some of it, but I think he comes across really well here and I wish the best for him in the future. Maybe it is Kugan who relaxes him a bit and he is less defensive and he even manages to get through the Groves question without making an arse of himself.

    He came across as fair there. Much calmer and less effort to be a prime twat.

    He's always been a good guy, just went over the top with the Groves fight.

    If that's the case he should take up acting as he was pretty convincing as a ****.

    I like way he exposed silly bollocks Eubank Jnr for being a div. He's maturing the lad, The Groves fights will always hurt him but he's a good lad. Does a lot of good for his club and other clubs and people who've met him always tend to say ''nice fella, talkitive and friendly''.

    He came across alright, you get the feeling though as soon as he gets a win or two on channel 5 the arrogance will come back.

    He sounds more relaxed & generally happier, when he was trying to be a badboy it all seemed a little forced & unnatural.

    Not too keen on the padwork here, still not turning over his hooks very well

    Yeah, he's still slapping.

    But I like Chunky. Hopefully his form can improve.

    why do trainers always slap with the pads? How is the fighter moving his fists an inch just to touch them going to help their punching technique?

    it seems like he has matured a bit. the way he reacted to Groves coming up etc. what he has been through with the loss and the case with fwank will of had a part to play.
