Lee Selby?..let me see now ..Lee Selby????....I vaguely remember a Selby - didnt he used to be a boxer at some stage????
True though, innit? "Scouthall Selby" is so inactive and so boringly forgettable that he literally cannot pass up on a fight....no matter what the circumstances.
Its not really a situation to make light of, I was the safe side of the ropes but had to do similar and its not easy. Fair play and good luck to him
Anyone remember the Marquez Katsidis fight? Similar situation for Katsidis, his brother died in the run up to the fight. You're already going through a lot physically and mentally for a big fight, best of luck to Selby. Hope the gamble pays off
James buster douglas, mother died a couple of weeks before he fought Tyson. Douglas wasnt given a chance by anyone and Mike was reaching the heights of his fame at that time. Douglas mother had been going round all the neighbours houses telling everyone that would listen that her son was going to beat tyson. Douglas heard about this after his mothers death, he was on a mission from then on. Im not a Selby fan but i wish him well at this time
Totally agree was thinking the exact same thing then I see. Your post summing up perfectly my thoughts.
I pray Selby can somehow perform under circumstances and keep his title. Whatever happens to him in the ring in future everything will be a walk in the park compared to this. All I can say is Cmon Lee !!
