  1. You don't think anyone in the boxing game would tell lies or deliberately mislead anyone do you?

    Will was always going to struggle in USA. his overrated gets hit to much and struggles against boxers.he still hasn't fought a legitimate top fighter.
    good on him for having a go but we have to be honest his going no where in America.his record looks good with just one loss but come on look who he has fought! No one! Today he got beat easy by a boxer who wouldn't be a legitimate top 50 featherweight.
    that fight might humble him a bit because he was getting around like he was the best fighter in Aust and unbeatable

    Agree with all of this. His ego has grown dramatically over the last 3 years especially.
     
  5. True. But boxers get absolutely nowhere without ego.

    True. But there is a difference in Will that says "My **** dont stink" kind of ego. He wasnt like that before.

    Dib v Tomlinson the grudge match if GBP and 50 cent offload them and they come back here. But hopefully he can overcome this(very large) pothole in the road of his career. :good

    Losing ur "coming out" fight isn't going to help. This fight was meant to showcase his talent they can't bring in a lower ranked fighter over there, that's wat his time in Aus was for. Hopefully something good comes out of it

    The real issue is with this guys ranking. Very hard to make a case for world title prospects when you lose to a fighter of that quality. Tough ask for Will to beat the best from here. I wish the young bloke all the best, after all hes from my neck of the woods and I do love to see a local boy do good on the world stage.

    No, Im from Western Sydney, guessing I was wrong on that one lol. I figured he was from my way because I used to see him doing roadwork just around the corner from me. Maybe that was just because he was training with Hudson?

    Absolutely pathetic, Tomlinson was not just beat but dominated by a bum ranked outside the top 150 who was coming off 2 losses.
