    A good night in the office last night for Josh...he showed alot of courage and determination to walk through the seasoned Langham....
    Josh is a very talented guy who should get a crack at the Aussie title in his next couple of fights.

    Iron Ryan was a top amature, he looked better against Lenny a couple of years back then he did last night.

    King reminded me a little of a young Mick Katsidis (not saying his old) :)

    Josh King did well considering Langham came to spoil & he tried every dirty trick in the book.
    Looking forward to see King back in action maybe in an Australian Title fight.
    He makes exciting bouts thats for sure.

    King was as impressive as Langham was disappointing IMO.

    Thought young Tyrone Jones looked impressive on debut - strong little *******, and he really showed his opponent some all over body pain!

    i knew josh king was going to be to strong for landham.always going to be an awkward fight,landham being tall,rangey & a south paw but josh did what he had to do to win. spewing i didnt get to put and bet on. be good if josh can keep fighting at light welter weigh.

    League up in NQ....He started boxing at 13 years of age and had a dozen or so fights in his home town of Charters Towers before he went over to Townsville and linked up with Sharkey Hughes at Scorpio Lodge....he had 40 odd fights with Shark before he had a couple of years off.He then turned pro with Gonzo Hooper...Josh ended up spliting with Gonzo and had a couple of fights with Swifty Gregory before hookin' up with Joey Pennisi at Bad Boys gym.
    I also heard a whisper that Josh may have a bout lined up with Matty Shaw in a month....that should be another good match up.

    Thanks darkhorse.

    Do you mean Mick shaw ? Josh would walk straight through Matty but Mick would give him a decent fight.
