    Are you gonna make it a second week in a row where you watch a fight that doesn't actually involve your hero? Congrats.

    Nah, I always do. You're just stupid enough that you can't see it.

    And while I'm talking, you still didn't answer my question in two other threads.

    Do you give Khan respect for having the balls to fight Maidana? You yourself said he wouldn't fight him so you look like a bit of twat now don't ya.

    It's not being carried in the US at all. You'd have to find a stream somewhere. Or you can watch all the fights on Frank Warren's Youtube channel next week.

    He's 6'4" and only 23 years old, and he's already put on 20 pounds since the beginning of his career (and has seen a corresponding increase in power). I wouldn't be surprised at all if he ends up at heavy someday.

    Yeh great credit. They wanted to fight JMM, JMM said **** you. Then they tried low-balling Maidana, it looked like it was gonna get cancelled. Then Maidana forced Team Con to fight by getting the WBA to set a date for purse bids. Even Khan's ****in' promoter released a video begging for Khan to sign.

    Anyway, at least they didn't pay Maidana off again and it LOOKS like they're gonna fight. So he gets credit for that.

    Seven fights, five of which are competitive, two of which are title eliminators and the rest of which are for domestic titles, is "the worst boxing rip off ever"? **** off man. I bet you've paid for cards where there wasn't a chance of the underdog winning any of the fights on the card.

    I don't think he is 6'4 that's crazy. I've stood next to him and I'm 6'1 and there wasn't that much height difference. I just don't think he has the frame for cruiser nevermind heavy!

    he won't move up for a while because he says he wants to clear out the whole division but his shoulders are extremely wide and he looks real skinny for the weight. he's also 6ft 3 and i reckon there will definitely be a time when he moves up to cruiserweight and maybe heavyweight in the future.

    at one time i would have worried about him moving up weights because there was a question mark over his power but hes now ko'd his last 6 opponents and looks to be hitting much harder than he used to.

    obviously all that talk is irrelevant at this stage of his career because you've always got to see how a fighter handles the step up in terms of class of oponnent. i personally think he is the real deal though.

    Perhaps. Moving to cruiser is a huge step though when you are in the ring with guys weighing 210+ on fight night. I wish cruiser was 190 still.

    thats a fair point. be interesting to see what cleverlys natural weight is inbetween fights and to see how easy he makes the lightheavy limit in a few years time.
