been to quite a few live fights here in the uk but to be honest nothing has come close to being 12 feet from the ring at a klitschko defense in hamburg!!!! totally electric (and I was at a few ricky hatton fights as wel!!):good
Its interesting you say that as British commentators and boxers have described the atmosphere on the German shows as 'sterile' and 'boring'. You didn't experience it like that?
no mate, it was full on..............thousands of Bulgarians in the crowd who very vocal!! I was helping the germans along and screamed myself hoarse for wlad!
A pleasure to share fellas!:good I must admit the whole shannon briggs thing seems very contrived. He was ri gside but very subdued compred to the weigh in the day before. Id bet my car on the fact if he was offered a win er takes all fight he would run for the hills...he is doing all this to pick up a payday Given the excitement and anticipation for the pulev fight. A fight a lot of us thought would be very competitive, a wlad/ briggs showdown would be a letdown. Bring on the winner of fury/chisora and then a big unification fight with stiverne or wilder. Id go back to germany for either of those fights but not to watch an old man get hurt permanently.
