    BooRadley makes me want Pavlik to lose just because of how funny it is watching him find excuses for it

    To be fair to him boxing is no longer a mainstream sport and he has to do anything he can to sell tickets. I can't remember who said it but it doesn't matter if they're buying tickets to see you win or lose but onlt that they're buying.

    It's working as well because although the O2 show is headlined by Nathan Cleverly, most talk is about Degale vs Groves and a lot of that is generated by Degale's pantomime villian act.

    Judah, Holt, Matthysse etc.

    Maidana since stepping up has failed to put away two shot fighters in Corley and Morales, and a 'chinny' fighter in Khan. He has good power, but nothing great IMO.

    David Haye's fans really grind my gears, I look forward to him being crushed because of his ****witted fans.

    If your good enough you shouldnt have to go down this route and personally I lose a lot of respect for fighters who act this way. I'll appreciate their skills inside the ring but will slate them otherwise.

    Same goes for Floyd, a dick of the highest order.

    Erm, you dont know me so less of the fanboy and is invincible in my eyes.

    Your talking **** becos you have an issue with Khan.

    I dont see Khan as invincible but he is making a name for himself a doing all the right things to progress, you can moan and groan all you like about how he has gone about it..not taking the normal route, milking it with Warren etc, PPV before he should have been...blah blah blah.

    If Khans does get beat by Bradley so what the last time he got beat he learnt from it and aslong as he learns from it and continues to improve then thats good enough for me I think the same about any british boxer mixing it at world level.

    And whoever said Maidana isnt the biggest puncher in the division his record suggests otherwise.

    His record since stepping up is 5-2 (3 KO's). He has stopped Gonzalez (who?), Cayo (solid prospect/contender) and Ortiz (top contender). Two of those were body shots whilst the other was someone quitting. No doubt he has power, but the fact he couldn't stop either Corley, Maidana or Khan suggests that he isn't some sort of exceptional puncher that his manufactured 27 KO's in 30 fights record suggests.

    Matthyse? Not IMO.

    Holt is the biggest one shot banger in the division IMO.

    And I would assume the better quality of opposition you fight the harder it is to catch them as clean. :good

    Maidana has got decent power, but I think he has trouble applying it, the fighter really has to stand in front of him.

    Yep, although he hit the aforementioned fighters cleanly quite a bit he couldn't stop :lol:

    He is a good puncher, one of the biggest in the division. Just not THE biggest puncher in the division IMO :good
