I've never really rated him, and last night proved it for me. Anyone else think that 'Swifty' has found his level?
He is a good fighter, is he world class, no I don't think he is tbh. Though he is Euro/Fringe World class, be surprised if he beat a world champion to win a world title, though hope I am wrong.
lucky Smith never fought anyone of note last night he would of been in big trouble. I had the fight a draw
davidee1983, how do you think ronnie would have got on with swifty last night? what did you think of steve simmons and jamie wilson also
Ronnie would of stopped him last night but in saying that maybe he just over looked Brown he wouldn't have Ronnie. I like the match up with Smith for Ronnie shame it almost came off.. There was something up with Simmons he needs a bit of head movement I said that against Graf(I think the boys name was) I thought he was overlooking ****enson who is a decent fighter with good power. I think Simmons will come back stronger. He now knows he can be hurt so might try to box a little more.. Jamie Wilson is a interesting one. He had a chance last night won round 3 and 4 and if he had the experience he would be able to beat Nelson. I think he needs another 4 or 5 fights. Should not be fighting on 3 weeks notice especially against a guy in a 12 week camp. Experience of Nelson won the fight although I think this loss could be as good as all the fights Jamie has had so far. He has a good jab when he uses it and a very good body shot just need to calm down a bit and time his shots better. Very proud to know him showed great heart hopefully he gets the right training and sparring as he showed he has ability
Pull your head out ronnies **** mate theres not a hope in hell of him ever stopping stephen smith in this lifetime altho stephen was poor last night , Not John Simpson is not with Alex Morrisson the fight with Ronnie and John you were shouting about as john is now with Belshaw
No offence to Barrington Brown but Ronnie is levels above him and hits very hard. My point on that fight is if the same Stephen Smith had fought Ronnie he would have got stopped. He was rocked 3 or 4 times by a guy with bad hands. Ronnie being a southpaw also Stephen would struggle with the jab. Stephen is quite similar to John Simpson great front foot boxers as soon as you push them back they are not a effective. As for John Simpson the figt was spoke about but John is wanting to fight at featherweight and good luck to him.
Stephen smith had an off night and is on the verge of a world tittle fight, a highly experienced world amature also , your brothers a turned over kick boxer getting beaten in british title eliminators mate theres a world of differences here
Firstly he got beaten by Troy James is a split decision away from home in a close fight. Some of Troys support thought Ronnie won and some of Ronnie's fans thought Troy won. Troy is a good fighter and gave Flannagan a tough nights work. As for Craig Evans everyone in the venue who wasn't Welsh or work for Box(your guaranteedawin)Nation knew Ronnie won that why they boo'd the outcome. Fact is Stephen is further on in his career but due to good matchmaking. He had an off night yes I agree if he was fighting Ronnie he would of been stopped. The fight should of been a Draw with Brown and Smith should of had a count. It's all ifs and buts. But If smith ever gets a world title that's Ronnies best chance their style match up favours Ronnie.. On another not Smith would get demolished by Walsh
All ifs and buts yes but all points aside your brothers been beaten at domestic pre british title level and we have a lad here bordering on a world title fight and your claiming ronnie would ko him , a focused stephen smith would have a field day with your brother , sorry but thats just my opinion
