    :lol: Kimbo for me, Least in his backyard fights he got the job done in a few mins rather then the lads in the country roads.

    One smack and it's ''ahhh no, no more he's had enough....''. Some of them country road fights go on for hours as well that's laughable cos most of time there circling.

    Most of the first world championship fights were exactly like that, they way it should be IMO

    McDonagh hasn't been useful for about a decade now but prime for prime he destroys Kimbo. At least he fought men who themselves could box not wannabe bouncers and dept collectors

    How you mean? I don't want to see people get bashed up but for all the talk some of these families have they get one crack and don't wanna know mate or someone jumps in and says that's enough and it's like the first meaningful punch of the fight.

    If someones getting weighed in i have no issue with people calling it.

    Actually did anyone see Kimbo's fight with the cop Sean 'the cannon' Gannon ? the only handy bloke he fought and he didn't look to good in that one

    Yeah i watched it a long time ago, Gannon backed up a lot. Stayed in the fight and dragged Kimbo down into a war of a attrition and he also held Kimbo down a little, arm round neck which they claimed was choking.

    Kimbo gassed badly, and Gannon got the win. He wanted it that bit more..

    I have some stinkers but there are some really good fights that go on for ages on youtube ! Here is a few .

    I reckon McDonagh would take him in his prime myself, reckon Kimbo beats him easy now though !

    Sure alot of those fights were crap that you'd fall asleep too, but others weren't. Its easy to destroy guys inferior to you like Kimbo was doing, but most of the lads McDonagh was Boxing were Nevins, those ****s are all born fighting and can certainly handle themselves in a fist fight alot of them box for Ireland.

    I actually know a young Nevin from Laois and he was telling me that the family hav produced over 60 national irish boxing champs

    Yeah they do produce fighters these families, good boxers etc. Maybe the Doc on BBC didn't show a prime James Quinn McDonagh. I wasn't overly impressed with him as a fighter.
