Martin Gethin vs. Ammeth Diaz

You said Gonzalez deserves a rematch against Burns ?


Why ?

 

Dean Powell charges £100 to do undercard fighters corners (cuts/wraps) am told.


Maybe I heard or picked the boy up wrong (dodgy English accent) as he was tired after his fight.


Was a good while back (cpl years) and tbf the boy says he wraps like a boss.

 

I still remember seeing Popo kicking footballs into the crowd over here.......loved him.

No matters.........he jacked.

 

Dont forget Vitali.
I would like to see a rematch. But Hearn will keep Burns away from him. Especially because Brits dont like "quitters". That fight would be hard to sell.

 

Rather than re-edit ma last post I will lay some down........


Gonzalez went to the well.....if he had gone there early.......what would have happened ?

He woulda been stopped quicker ?

Got on his toes and boxed ?


I will say another thing..........if Burns was Froch for example.......he would only have sealed the warrior code in many peoples opinion/eyes.....but he aint and its different strokes.


Me personally..........thank the lord above Ricky Burns has the warrior code stamped and codec'd within..........and no need for such talk from him either (dbl bonus)

I understand your sentiments to some extent and tbh I don't think Gonzalez is or has been branded a quitter with regards to his career (not yet)

Popo is remembered for quitting and I don't like it either...though he has done.


Good days and bad days when ya fighting eh.




Still awaiting Jose's broken arm/wrist results.............an arm support when arriving home dosent cut it.

 

exactly this

 

PS. Popo under Suarez was a shambles.


You don't change fighters.......you adjust them.

 

Just saw the gethin fight as had problem with boxnation last night

It was entertaining while it lasted but clearly diazs power was unlike anything martins ever felt before and he just couldn't cope with the head shots
Gethins impressed me the last 3 times I've seen him domestically but it was painfully apparent he is too stationary at world level

Still he should be proud to headline a show in his home town which was a world eliminator,and he has the consolation of the Lonsdale belt and lots of potential fights at that level
Crolla Murray Scott Harrison or Liam Walsh would all high quality British title fights
Was impressed with Diaz as well,first time I've seen him and his record shows he is an old School fighter

 

And regarding Ronnie heffron his punch noise annoys me almost like a female tennis player

Just thought I'd mention it

 

Yes, he's the WBO Matchmaker of the Year.

 

Dean powells advice from the corner always sounds insightfull to me
If you watch he will wait till the trainers done his recuperation and given tactical advice and then when the ref calls he will force a point home loud and clear,something very basic but vital.he does this so the boxer will walk out at his freshest possible moment with this going through his mind
I don't think he pushes in and he seems to know his stuff his knowledge of active boxers at home and abroad along with his technical nous make him one of the best there is

 

Cleverly's extremely luck that he has Dean Powell in his corner because Vince appears to be clueless. All the good advice Clev ever gets comes from Dean.

However, there's other fighters where Dean interferes too much. Ricky Burns is an example, Billy knows what he's doing in the corner and then you have Dean shouting some something completely contradictory and drowning Billy's advice out. Not needed at all.
