    I hear it every day!
    Think it's an old joke but it's so relevant here."Quality Man" is the adjective phrase equivalent of the name Smith up here.
    Non-****ing stop.Even find myself saying it on occasion.:oops:

    I get you bro, It still a step up for Ricky from Mitchell and Moses but i want Vasquez or Broner :yep.

    The Vasquez fight really interests me, it takes Ricky out of his element but he's feeling strong and pressing a little more so it would be really interesting to see how he chops down a guy like Vasquez if he can. It's a style that would make Ricky show another side of himself basically.

    Any more info Smoggy? Is it going to be one of Frank's typical 'big cards' where the home fighters are all his big names but opponents are a bit meh?

    Since the Broner fight aint happening in the next couple months then DeMarco is a good defence, much better than most expected and gives a good build up to a the Broner fight which I believe will happen next. Surprised there are so many negative comments on this match up considering the last couple proposed Burns opponents.

    Ricky Burns will just milk his WBO title for as long as possible. The Broner fight is never going to happen, please just accept this and move on.

    the only fight that can be classed as big would be Vasquez.

    Groves vs N'Dyae
    Cleverly vs Kransqui

    So.....what are Box Nation going to show as a domestic bill for Jan, Feb, April & May?

    If it's Vasquez I'll walk to Billy's Gym and apologise in person for not believing him.
