    Fair enough. And I was surprised to hear someone say he's still only 21 on TV today. I think the most interesting feedback about Ward was when Luke Kiko posted a few months ago and talked about how much energy his in-and-out style uses up. He's got a full year now to refine it change styles/learn other ones. But you still can't help feeling he could be leaner, can you? I know that's what a lot of people on here think, wonder what the other boxers would say.

    Well he was a light middle originally, and didn't Andy lee try the same thing for a while after joining booth. Looks peculiar alright but let's see how it works out against welborn.

    Spike on social media with a signed contract for the Eubank fight,Looks like its going ahead alright,interesting fight got to favour Eubank at the minute though but it will act as a nice warm up before Andy v BJS the following weekend.

    No i would give spike an outside chance, a punchers chance,
    Lets get this right i dont think Eubank is good he is solid but far from unbeatable,the problem for spike is it looks like junior has a very good chin,
    He is bigger and physically stronger aswell,
    Not one for the purists id imagine but should be interesting,

    CEJ is rightly favourite against spike but styles make fights and Spike is at his best whenever anyone comes and fights him instead of boxing, great chin, defence and huge punch only thing lacking is work rate but fact he's been kept busy and good camp behind him he has every chance against Eubanks and will pull off upset!

    Lads are in Burns gym in Florida spike Is sparring out of his skin against jermain Taylor and Stephen proving his class again smashing up a highly rated light middleweight Mexican pro.
