    So who are your favourite fighters then? I follow Darren Barker to be honest, fighters don't have to be the very best to be a favourite of mine, i admire the best, but i seem to like flawed guys who are huimble in personality. Anyway, Barker is ****ing class, and he's going to have the same old shitty career of British fighters, going nowhere in his prime. My advice to any potentially great British fighter is always the same- get your arse over to America and try and get yourself a career so as to get the best out of yourself'

    Theres a kid i used to train with at the same club from my town who just beat Ian Napa for the British bantamweight title. When i trained he was only young, him and his twin brother, probably 12/13 years old. I'm cheering for him, its not often we get a star. Infact hes probably one of the biggest right now...on par with Dawn from Emmerdale.

    I've taken quite a liking to Kevin Mitchell, he's got good style and I think he can do pretty well.

    As far as Darren Barker goes, I've only seen his last fight with Danny Butler was it? And wasn't be suppost to be fighting Elcock at some point?

    Forgot the last opponent's name, but i watched it, class again. his combos are very nice, maybe a bit more head movement and he's putting a bit of a package together. He'd ruin Elcock i reckon defo, slip that jab and smash him up. He should just get over to America and start fighting cats very soon.

    Remember when Mitchell vs Kahn had some hype around it? As if that was going to happen under Warren, i hate this boxing politics bull****.

    Yeah I remember that, I didn't take too much notice. Khan seems to get matched against 10 people before they finally decide who to fight.
