Steve Bunce Rips on Aussie Boxing!

Goood on him... I'm glad he managed to fit that sequence in.... in between the 55 minutes of on-air advertising time.

....unless he managed to fill a complete hour with Pac/Hatton spuculatives..

 

He does a good job. Let's face it, the to and froms are light years ahead of us in quality of fighters. I don't think he particularly knows a lot, but he's passionate.

 

Bunce continues the fine English stereotype of lack of soap and dental care.

 

......quality, or numbers of fighters?? I'd suggest numbers...

Per/population.. Oz travels pretty well, considering the number of Pro. fighter listed.

A great heritage is not to be forgotten, so... if this comic takes the **** out of us, lets take it with a 'grain of salt'.

 

Current Aussie fighters are unheared of he in the UK with the exception of Katsidis .Pittman was sent up to challenge Sturm a year ago but its no wonder your fighters don't get recognised as world class fighters when they continue to fight against each other down under in so called Mega fights . i ain't having a go but your fighters biggest opponent is geography . You should send the likes of Pittman , Geale , kickett etc to europe in an attempt to raise their profiles & Skills ( the likes of kickett geting sparked after so much hype was ****ing hilerious unlike the riot post fight ). BTW whatever Buncey says listen to half and disregard the rest ,Bunce is doing a great job with his show here in the uk ( very imformative ) ,but Buncey likes a giggle from time to time , he must have thought you Aussie had a sence of humour also . lol

 

Sorry flame have to disagree with you there mate , The quality of fighters up here is higher in most cases beause he qulity of opponent is in general higher .

 

As above.

Our history is no doubt very proud, but we're thin on the ground in terms of competition these days. That being said, we've just come out of a great run with the likes of KT, Briggs, Green etc etc.

 

Bunce talks a load of **** during the times he doesn't have Hatton, Calzaghe and Haye's dick's in his mouth. He's the UK version of Barry Michael.

 

He has a point really.

Who do we have apart from Kats and Vic at the moment?

and i mean on a world stage

 

Quality, and more importantly depth of quality is our biggest drawback.

Agreed that per head of population we've been good over the years, but at present our few stand-outs have got no decent local opposition. That's why our bigger achievers (Vic, Katsidis etc) aren't seen here too often.

Not going to mention his name...but that's why 'he' ought to be over in the USA or UK building on his career, not fighting local hacks at home.

 

Who does England have other than Hatton and Haye?

 

Bunce should get his lovechild Amir Khan in with Katsidis.

 

Maybe Kickett , both overhyped and both got questionable chins . Katsidis is way too good for Khan .

 

We've turned out three A-level guys in the last 20 years in Fenech, Tszyu & Vic.

None of them needed to go to Europe to achieve what they did. In fact, fighting there would have been a major step backwards for all of them.

The first tier of boxing is North America. Europe is boxing's second division.

Our best guys fight tier 1.
