Australian Boxing/SM Memorial thread

Really,since you want to jump on the bandwagon putting **** on QLD and so called corruption etc. I would love to here all these examples of dodgy decisions that have occurred in Nth QLD?
There is decades of examples of incompetence and dodgy decisions south of the border,especially in NSW which has far worse record then QLD ever has.

 

Skye and Jamie are brother/sister. I believe he passed prior to her being born.

 

it was at the pressa for venue he said something along the lines of its all an act i like to make my opponents think im a nice guy ...

 

When MZ can afford your morals then he can refuse the A side of Australian boxing no matter how old he is. Not a fan of the fight but this is Aussie boxing, been plenty of fights I don't like. Horn doesn't seem eager to give MZ an opportunity to get back those $$$ he cost him.

Levels to this sport and it's not just about ability but more about marketability and the power of management or lack thereof.

 

he can do what he likes but he deserves to be ridiculed severely if he faces the corpse that's left of mundine.

and why on earth does horn have to fight zerafa to provide him with a payday? that's ridiculous, lol.

 

Your entitled to your stance, not a good fight at this juncture.

As to your Horn ? - when you put yourself up there as world class then get sparked by a domestic then a controversial win against same then you have unfinished business.

But Horn won't go there IMO unless its loaded - after all MZ was a "cherry pick" gone wrong once then nearly repeated.

 

Agreed , I've nowt against Horn but he most definitely has unfinished business v MZ ,

 

Same - Horn seems nice enough guy, soap opera stuff doesn't interest me but I just don't see him as legit world class and his management / trainer are annoying.

 

Mate normally I don't pass judgement on any fighters background staff and hangers on but from what I've seen of Jeff's is they have a distinct amature look about them , after Mick Z fought Kel Brooke over a frantic 12 rounds who nudged a fighter who struggles over 8 rounds into the path of MZ , makes little sense to me , we saw what a demolition job Mick put on Jeff in the first fight and let's be totally honest here without the help of the officials the second fight would have gone the same way ....did I say amature ?.

 

* With mass gatherings over 500 people banned Aust boxing virtually come
to a standstill. Horn vs Tszyu postponed. Last word to the Hornet " I won't
fight without a crowd ".

 

good excuse for him to avoid a hiding

 

A lot of the money etc comes from the crowd. The Stadium management back the fight to help the local economy with people coming to watch. But Horn is a grub..
We barely just over 3 months into 2020, but you're in a good position to win internet **** wit of the year. Keep the good work up kid.

 

its a worry for all sport mate afl etc surely cant cant be sustained without crowds

 

* Team Ellis Boxing Sat March 21 show is still going ahead They have cut the fights
in order to satisfy the Gov request to keep events to a 500 person limit.The
main event is Camilleri vs Otto.
* Horn vs Tszyu is after all still pressing ahead. And tickets have gone on sale.
The situation to be monitored daily.

 

The PPV numbers have the potential to be respectable if this is one of the only cards in the world going ahead what with a name like Tyszu attached to it , is it available PPV outside of Australia ...?
