    Gallahad tried to let on to jazza today after the weigh in at the Hilton hotel but
    Jazza just blanked him, so he hung around in the foyer a bit with Dominick ingle to get a chance to chat .But when he approached jazza to shake his hand and wish him luck, jazza picked a bunch of grapes up and started eating them and gallahad ended up shaking jazza's elbow :patsch it was so funny gallahad must of wanted the ground to open and just swallow him .
    He did wish him luck though none the less.
    To which jazza replied it could have been you tomorrow !
    when are you out next ?
    Gallahad said nothing just put his hood up and walked away

    He probably won't box for a while now with channel 5 pulling the plug on boxing
    So I think he will regret not accepting the fight with jazza for quite some time as he's not going to get the chance to defend the WBC title he has on untelevised shows as it wouldn't be feasible with wages and sanctioning fees
    So the English title that the board wanted him to fight jazza for is an awful lot more appealing now than any fight for his wbc belt.

    Watch this space coz I'm sure he will want to box for the English title some time soon even though it was a backward step for him a couple of months ago

    Jazza is high risk low reward, they will be waiting round for quigg to vacate and then get it on.

    Jazza's probably still upset at not being able to land a glove on Barry during sparring :yep

    Your right Jamie he was being respectful and infact went out of his way to do so ! However it does not wash being respectful after being disrespectful to someone
    He would beat jazza any time any place anywhere
    And would give the boxing public the fight they wanted to see he said on Twitter
    Then said to fight jazza for the English title was a backward step and that jazza had beat no-one
    And hadn't earned his shot.

    Someone is going to have to tell me what I'm missing with this Dickens character because I must be missing it. All I see so far is a young lad beating up on punch bags with wide hooks and no patience.

    Press the red button on sky tomorrow icemax to see his progress
    Your correct he has lacked patience in the past at times
    But the quality of his opposition has nothing to do with him
    All those ranked above him in Britain don't want to fight him and use the old he has beat no-one / he has not earned his shot ! Shouts
    But he has beaten the same journeymen that they have in most cases and unless they move on or agree to fight him he will never beat any proven domestic opposition
    Coz they are all to scared of loosing their 0

    Which is what ****s boxing up for everyone .

    Im certainly going to give him a watch....My question isn't a critisism of the lad either, its just that I can't tell what he's like given the opposition. I know its difficult for young prospects but sometimes managers and promoters have to farm their fighters out abroad to get them decent learning fights...if not then they do stagnate. The only thing that they can do at domestic level is fight their way into a mando spot and hope that their team pushes the issue.

    BY "WBC" are you referring to the World Boxing Council Title? ................. :-(

    Jazza has the moral high ground for now!

    ????

    Jazza is an excellent "STRAIGHT PUNCHER", have you been watching the right James Dickens m8?

    Ive been watching some bloke chasing after punch bags and rushing his work....He may well be a fantastic straight puncher, but he also has an awesome line in hooks thrown from the third row back.
