Thats totally unfair, there was probably only one person in boxing who could do that to Herol, and that was the hawk, Pavlik is a bum in comparison, and although hs one hel of a club, its nowhere near comparable to the one that Jackson landed on the Bomber.
Herol was chinny he'd admit that himself even Charles Brewer Stopped him and he was winning that fight with a 2 rounds and a bit to go so it wasn't just the Jackson fight. I'm a Graham fan and would expect him to beat Pavlik but you never know with Herol :bbb But i agree about Jackson compared to Pavlik. Jackson just takes one punch to end a guys night.
Podcast to come today (Friday). The BBC London show is available, so I'm told, on BBC iplayer. Go to the bbc.co.uk/london and find it. If it is not there please let know. Adios.
Graham would stand Pavlik on his head. He took McCallum's punches fine, being sparked by Jackson isn't anything to be ashamed of, it was his own fault anyway chasing a needless KO, when the fight would probably have been stopped at the end of the 4th round.
Has there been a worse middleweight champion (linear only) in recent times than Pavlik - both in terms of ability and opponents faced as champion?
Excellent Found it :goodlistening now http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p005ztd2/The_BBC_London_Boxing_Hour_21_01_2010/
Thanks for using the iPlayer - it's the only way to convince the people in charge that the show has a real following. The show last night was the 25th and so far I've had 161 guests in the studio, live on the phone or recorded specially for the show including Haye, Khan, Harrison, Mitchell, Rhodes, Brook, Cleverly, Booth, Napa, DeGale, Maloney, Hearn, Hatton, Lewis, Smith, Fury, Chisora, Sexton, Roach, Witter, Small, McCracken, Munroe, Jeffries, Saunders, Hennessy, El Maachi, Arthur, Olusegun, Groves, Murray, Mason, Williams, Barker, Daws, Haskins, Froch and no less than 11 current British champions. I've think that I've had about 800 calls, emails and texts. So, thanks to all of you! Adios and thanks.
Buncey i remember you talking on a old thread about getting Sammy Reeson on your Boxing Hour and i remember you were trying to track him down to get him on. One of his family has added me on Facebook and other day i saw that he's on there to. If you want the link to follow it up i message you. Cheers
buncey could you try and track paul appleby down and get a update for him a dricky burns to get up dates on what is happening with applebys promotional search and burns potential trip to puerto rico?
I don't honestly know if this a stupid question, but what do you think are the realistic chances of your show coming back on TV?
